trying to see eye to eye the leaders of russia and the u.s. meet at the g. twenty summit in mexico tomorrow over advice of issues. birth important to president obama outlined common ground on syria and pledged to continue dialogue on watching the controversial european missile shield all the details just ahead. also at the summit world leaders raise the alarm over a lack of progress in dealing with the eurozone debt crisis which they say threatens to bring the global economy crashing down. plus a nuclear powered iran stands firm on its right to peaceful atom as western officials try to pressure of the country into submission drene international conference in moscow.

what you are going to live from moscow nine am in the russian capital i'm marina joshie welcome to the program president. obama have pledged commitment to solving syria diplomatically and preventing civil war there the deadlock in the middle east was just one issue the two has discussed on the sidelines of the g twenty summit in mexico going to check out is there for r t. meeting of the two leaders lasted around two hours and that's a lot for a bilateral meeting on the sidelines of a summit the range of issues on their table was huge the leaders came out with a joint statement on syria they both agree that syrian people should decide their own fate and that a political not military process is needed to prevent a civil war that's what russia has been saying all along as was pointed out by president putin he saw common grounds in their approach on syria it might sound

surprising to many because the rattle rate so far between russia and the u.s. has been very tense on syria with the two countries accusing each other of stoking violence there on iran's the leaders came up with a very general statement to and that is that iran should provide maximum transparency on its nuclear program and abide by the u.n. nonproliferation treaty there were some bilateral issues on the table such as the u.s. missile defense shield in europe russia still has no guarantees that it won't be aimed at russia at some point the u.s. refuses to give those guarantees and arguably be a like the coming up in the u.s. moscow and washington will be able to move forward on not much all the leaders said this monday was that they were going to continue the dialogue on the sidelines of the g. twenty summit which would set up to tackle global economic challenges the group of the world's most powerful emerging economies that is brazil russia india china south africa had a separate meetings there pushing for

a multilateral world for updating old institutions like the i.m.f. like the world bank which are heavily dominated by the u.s. and europe they want to play a bigger role in the decision making with those organizations at this summit they are announcing an additional contribution to the i.m.f. money that could be channeled to europe if the prices there spread it's very much clear to everyone that those emerging markets are now the engine of the global economy and it's kind of porting their own from the g twenty summit in mexico well a former member of their reagan administration says no matter what obama tells put in person the u.s. president is just one link in a long chain of foreign policy makers. i'm convinced that putin does not want conflicts with washington he wants to resolve the issue of the missile bases that are surrounding russia he doesn't want conflict and obama. he doesn't want any conflict either but he is just one member of

a government that more wants regime change in syria and obama is not exactly in a position to be able to move to stop that he will do what he can to get along with kryten but he still has to represent the agenda of. the world age in a me and regime change and so the situation i think is unresolved . well the g twenty self world leaders have ways they are concerned over the eurozone crisis calling it the single biggest threat to the world economy many have said progress has been way too slow in dealing with the situation this comes after sunday's elections in greece failed to produce an outright where i began to form a new government a probe a lot of new democracy party won almost thirty percent of the votes and is now urgently seeking to form a coalition the new government will have a mammoth task to have especially as german chancellor angela merkel said there

were no changes every. part of the greek bailout but some experts believe even if a deal is reached between the parties it's unlikely they will find a solution for greece. about sixty percent of the population. voted for parties are opposed to the bailout and i think with three hundred fifty billion dollars in debt there's no way in the world that. the bailout or the agreement between the right wing and the bank is going to work this is what the continuation of us there would be means it doesn't result in payments to the banks are all it means is recycling new loans to bad loans and i think the cumulative debt oh is astronomical there's a big debt payment coming in the end of july that peace cannot make

it is the total devastation of the economy and its prospects for the future and germany ultimately will pay the breakup of the eurozone means that each country will go its own way. well on the later this hour we report on another e.u. country still struggling with its canonic woes despite having already been thrown a financial lifeline hopes and dreams turning sour as cash scrap island is left with hundreds of thousands of and then developments after a construction boom was hit by the crisis. and egypt's ruling military says it will cede power to the new president but later we hear from an expert who blames the country's leader will be nothing more than a puppet on a string. two days of intense talks between six world powers and iran are underway in moscow where the controversial atom still splitting the sides

tehran once the right to enrich uranium to a higher level or at least receive such materials from abroad by the e.u. and america are committed to ensuring in tough new economic sanctions against iran in the coming weeks and israel has even threatened to bomb the country and the u.s. congress is pressuring the president to take tougher action but job the from the national iranian american council says diplomacy is the only way to reach a long term solution. a big part of what congress has done is to really assert that we are in control the same shin's. don't you dare lift the sanctions in exchange for iranian concessions and we must demand the most maximal goals possible that are not achievable and if that doesn't work out immediately exit the diplomatic trajectory and start ramping up some of the planning for war the reality is for the past four years we've been sanctioned iran ratcheting up those sanctions we've only now started to have that diplomatic process but while we were doing the same sions

a lot of people said look this is a trajectory to war this is exactly what we had with saddam not necessarily right before we went to war with iraq but in the ninety's when we were ratcheting up the sanctions and creating a policy of regime change the solution to the problem what are you ron's aspirations in terms of its. program doesn't involve military action if you go down the line military leaders have said if we bomb iran we're not going to be able to take out their program we can only the way it for as long as three years in that time iran would reconstitute its program and likely make the decision which they haven't yet made to actually actively pursue a nuclear weapon as it stands you know leon panetta was on sixty minutes a couple weeks ago and he made clear iran is nowhere near an imminent nuclear weapon. while the arab league has called for a peacekeeping force to be deployed in syria saying the u.n. plan to not hold the ongoing violence fierce clashes between government troops and the opposition continue in the city of homs and the town of duma activists say at

least seventy nine civilians soldiers and rebels have been killed in the country since the u.n. observers the span of their mission three days ago russia has reportedly had been preparing to sand ships and marines to its naval base in syria to protect people and remove equipment in case the conflict escalates the red cross believes up to a million and a half people are now in desperate need of humanitarian help are just maria who is in damascus reports of how media is turning into yet another tool of war sometimes just as dangerous as a rifle. evening meal with evening news mesa hears that the syrian army is shell in residential areas and homes for a while watches another channel and he learns that the rebels are using civilians as a human shield while the army attacks this stronghold when did the reserve or the two neighbors from damascus who believed with completely different versions of what's going on in the country and who is responsible the media has an enormous influence

on people's perceptions french investigative journalist i may sound believes it can be and is being used as a weapon in the syrian conflict he accuses western countries of preparing a media terror attack on the syrian government involving sophisticated staged events all designed to force regime change. but the majority of syrians are not against assad but if they see the pictures of the regime down or the president fleeing the rebels taking over the presidential palace it will demoralize people and even assad supporters will stop resisting and give up and this is how t.v. works people believe it even before they think whether it could be true or not. in any other arab spring country libya yeah even leaves that qatar based channel al jazeera broadcast pictures from tripoli central green square showing rebels celebrate in the regime's full days before they actually entered the city and move

he claims help the rebels to advance after we can get off his followers in syria the journalist warns things may go much further diffuse a form they will not only use their own channels to send this message they will replace syrian satellite channels with their own with the same logos and same design they'll have to get enough materials to broadcast along story day after day defuse it has emerged the head of the broadcasting company that provides r.t. with live pictures from damascus says such a swap is technically possible but he. now it's people would fall for it how do. they know syrian present isn't reporters and if they say it's different they'll understand immediately something is wrong so no way they'll believe or you know well such concerns may be dismissed as paranoia officials in damascus are taking any threat to syria's information service seriously two weeks ago the arab league

demanded that the arab side and egyptian outside satellite companies seize the broadcast of state and private syrian t.v. channels this mirrors the arab league's ban on arab owned broadcasters from carrying libyan state t.v. during the uprising there. we think this is a violation of international law and threatens the country's security which change satellites and inform people about the new location of the national channels. perfect launch and other investigative journalists from damascus has spent the last ten months exposing what he thinks is proof of foreign media medlin in syrian events and the international media discredited themselves already in the in too many cases proving their interest biased no one believes them people used to but no longer trust. or a feed crew first of the most recent case when the b.b.c. used pictures showing dead bodies in iraq to illustrate serious controversial houla

massacre those responsible later apologized and removed the misleading images misinformation and propaganda are common themes in any conflict syria is already the subject of mixed media coverage with the use of wrong pictures and footage that cannot be independently verified but well information many people ation is very hard to expose its impact such as international condemnation and calls for military foreign intervention is impossible to ignore. life notion of damascus syria. well keep in mind that we have more news and videos available for you on our website r.t. dot com let's take a look now at what's waiting for you there at the moment for uncovering a full shima style disaster averted in the nick of time at a nuclear plant in california get the details online. also read the story of two people arrested in moscow for using their own ambulance to beat this it is notorious traffic jams.

egypt's ruling military government has pledged to hand power to the country's new president by the end of the month it comes after the supreme council of the armed forces issued an interim constitution declaring themselves the country's lawmakers and attorney who will ride egypt's new constitution the amendments will strip the country's leader of almost all significant powers official election results aren't expected until thursday but the muslim brotherhood has claimed an early victory supporters of the islamic party gathered in tahrir square to celebrate the announcement made by party leader mohamed morsi the claims are being rejected by rival contender ahmed shafik who accuses the muslim brotherhood of trying to usurp the presidency middle east analyst and public speaker on international affairs that he says the winning candidate will be nothing more than

a puppet for the military. because of political dealings during the first round we ended up with two unqualified candidates the fact is that close to seventy percent of the egyptian electorate did not take part in these elections in the in the runoff is a huge indication where the majority of the egyptian people stand and how do the perceive both candidates the military council has clearly done what many observers have described as a soft coup based on the ruling from the supreme constitutional court to dismantle the parliament and based on the amendments to the constitutional declaration that came during the second round of elections the defacto ruler in egypt is the supreme council and it shall be for years to come it have made the coming

president regardless whether it's the muslim brotherhood candidate or the establishment candidate will be nothing short of a hand puppet for the military. now take a look at some other stories from around the world a suicide blast has killed at least fifteen people whether she of you know iraq forty others were wounded in the attack which happened in a town north of baghdad the bomber detonated his explosive belt in a word warners gathered to pay respects to a tribal chief a wave of bombings targeting shia muslims has swept through the country since the beginning of june killing more than one hundred thirty people. three officers have died in afghanistan after militants attacked a police checkpoint in the city of kandahar it sparked a gun battle between officers and insurgents which lasted for an hour six others were wounded in the attack comes just one day after three gunmen wearing police uniforms killed nato service member in the same region. a second israeli air strike in a matter of hours has killed two palestinians in the gaza strip pushing the overall

death toll to four the attacks which hit the town of beit hanoun have been confirmed by the israeli military strikes came just hours after a gunman killed an israeli civilian and a construction worker on the israeli egyptian border television sis attacks were not in retaliation. during the boom years ireland's construction industry reached new heights but it seems they were building a house of cards come crashing down when the economy tumbled it's left whole ghost neighborhoods and a number of the country cities with few sure when anyone can breathe life into them is laura smith reports. there's a new word in ireland no armored it's when properties repossessed by the national asset management agency as it owners go bankrupt during the celtic tiger boom banks handed out cash to property developers like monopoly money now islands littered with ghost estates homes and shopping centers that nobody wants this is

a classic example of the death of the celtic tiger in this small town north of dublin the plan was to move the entire town center to this location shops and apartments were starting to be constructed and then four years ago the crash and the site has been like this unfinished on lived in ever since jimmy gilmore has seen the boom and bust first hand a pub owner in les town outside dublin his sleepy hamlet exploded from three thousand residents ten years ago to eighteen thousand now but the housing stock grew even more creating a situation jimmy says epitomizes what's gone wrong in ireland. that's sort of sums up where we are in this country at the moment we're all suspended we're waiting for something to happen we don't know but can we move forward or when we're going to move forward i think. these empty units. those states are finished the states

just believe it's a picture of where we are psychologically people around here tell stories of being offered millions of euros by banks for development projects building houses and shopping centers for which there was no market problem was that banks here and financial institutions believe they were doing the right thing so they were basically shoveling money at people who cared and saw that people were taking it and building housing that nobody needed between one nine hundred ninety one and two thousand and ten ireland nearly a. new houses and surprisingly a recent report says more than three hundred thousand of them now live vacant and that's just the ones that are finished another highway another housing development this is whitefield mother and inside that there are around thirty houses about a third of which remain on occupied to this day on the other side of the road the

developer had planning permission for a further three hundred houses in the end he built the gate post and then nothing more this developer didn't go bankrupt and a representative told us they still plan to finish the estate at some point but locals can't imagine that happening i cannot see any construction taking place in this country the next ten years we have an oversupply of everything between houses and retail units. but i honestly do believe that we have hit the bottom if we can get over this you being places that starts places where i think you can start to move. in people who show that over the years. it's survival of the fittest meanwhile someone has to pay for all those bad loans incurred mostly by french and german banks and the buck has stopped with the irish taxpayer on the hook to ninety billion euros in bailouts you are smith r t. well the latest edition of

join us and his interview show is just hours away this time he says downer was a moronic on the pakistani anti-corruption activists and politicians talk about the controversial war in terror pushed by the u.s. show will air right here in r.t. at eleven thirty am g.m.t. but here's a preview. warder there's more of this some of the confusion is that you win a war on terror by bombs and. you know killing actually war on terror is one when you win hearts and minds of people if you lose that war this is that that is the word this is a very i mean like a stone as more revelations today that it was eight years but by this time in this global recession it's a polarized society than it was here two years ago whatever two million issues not the solution we are feeling for eight years americans are fighting for eleven years of work and what what are we going to do not what is different and as the instances

. is doing the civil war and over again and expecting a different result it's starting to happen and there's no military solution only with political solution by the side of the bargain the going into consideration we do not have what additions look you will all get a bit of. a good job of government hopefully ours will start a political dialogue and emergency that exit strategy from the start this is the one we are the most. and sound around to see what's happening in business cady's so what's going on how are investors feeling today well they're feeling a little nervous i think marine official it's all about spain that's what's on top of the agenda that's after the country's boring cause climb to a year zero high topping that all important seven percent level there's also a day to say. by fueling fears that the country may require

a sovereign bailout so let's see how the asian markets are responding to all of this now we don't have an initial optimism it's now being replaced with skepticism over the greens the election result and investors and i'll going to be looking towards the g twenty the global leaders to really pull off some of the kind of absence. tucker the price that so called the k. on the hunt around a quarter of a percent if i talk about individual stores the japanese yen is concerned is actually. putting pressure on some of those big blue chip exposed to. such as china all suffering all the japanese bulls in hong kong skirts holding the clothing company over lies on europe for its along with thousands not just and it's an amount of one percent in the session just now let's see how wall street was finished up yesterday and it was a mixed close for both the dow jones on the nasdaq just that it was

a third straight day of losses for the dow jones of the nasdaq it was a third straight day of yeah you are talking about the tech schools that we have facebook one of the i mean a four point seven percent among all of the initially putting out the initial public offering to the social network also all is well the world's most valuable company is getting it now this is going to do. as well as exchange rates and the common current state. is turning within it's really i would say it's one of them six zero eight that with a common currency this so lawyers around those. close look at the ruble it's going to be it's going to be in less than an hour's time now but yesterday. against us. in the trading session if we look at the russian markets then as i say less than one hour until they start moving inside of me so getting that was despite all the concerns of around the european region also all took a bit of about showing yesterday as well but it doesn't post two figures coming out

just. the read point seven percent last month. for prices most important commodity. stocks they are still makes but if you look at the prices they are indeed remaining around those fifteen months. and i did mention the. twenty going on that this week let's talk about what the brakes are intending to do now the wolds falses growing economy also known as the brakes as i say they have increased their contribution to the i.m.f. now the decision was agreed at the group's informal meeting at head of the g twenty summit in mexico the conjurers will provide the fund with an additional seventy five billion dollars with ten billion of that coming from russia now this will help to significantly increase its lending power to protect with global economy from europe's debt turmoil all right marina said next hour on how the figures for the
