poland in the declines in asia and visible prices go up but not the day job in about twenty minutes time how the book is on the details of the business for the seven. eleven am in the russian capital you're watching r.t.l. marina joshie presents one report now barack 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 halves discussed on the sidelines of the g. twenty summit in mexico that is she count is there for. the 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 then 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 clinton he sought common ground in their approach on syria it might sound surprising to many because the rather break 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 the elections coming up in the u.s. moscow and washington will be able to move forward on the how 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 growth of

the world's most powerful emerging economies that is brazil russia india china and south africa had a separate meeting that they're pushing for a multilateral world for off dating 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 within 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 spreads it's very much clear to everyone that those emerging markets are now the engine of the global economy and she's going to come reporting there from the g twenty summit in mexico well a former member of the reagan administration says no matter what obama tells for the person the u.s. president is just one link and a long chain of foreign policy makers. i'm convinced that putin does not warrant 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 wants regime change in syria and obama is not exactly in a position to be able to move the stuff that. he will do or he can to get alone with scruton but he still has to represent the agenda. world agent of me and regime change and so the situation i think is unresolved while the g twenty itself world leaders have voiced their concern over the eurozone crisis calling it the single biggest threat to the world economy many have said progress has been a way too slow in dealing with the situation now this comes after sunday's elections in greece failed to produce an outright winner again to form a new government. 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 ahead especially as a german chancellor angela merkel said there will be no changes in a steady cuts that are part of the greek bailout but some experts believe even if a deal is reached between the parties it's unlikely they'll find a solution for greece. about sixty percent of the population. voted for parties that 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 battle out or the agreement between the right wing and the bank is going to work this is what the continuation of austerity means it doesn't result in payments to the banks are all it means is recycling new loans after bad loans and i think the cumulative dad is astronomical as

a big debt payment coming in the end of july that we cannot make head here 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. and later this hour we report on another country still struggling with its economic woes despite having already been thrown a financial lifeline hopes and dreams of turning sour as cash scrap island is left with hundreds of thousands of abandoned 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 claims 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 sites to iran once the right to enrich uranium to a higher level or at least to receive such materials from abroad but the e.u. and america are committed to ensuring in tough new economic sanctions against iran in the coming weeks israel has even threatened to bomb the contrie in the u.s. congress is pressuring the president take tougher action but job d. from the national iranian american council says the policy 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 sions. 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 saying on 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 same shin's and creating a policy of regime change the solution to the problem what are you ron's aspirations in terms of its nuclear program doesn't involve militar. reaction 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 we don't panetta was on sixty minutes a couple weeks ago and he made clear iran is nowhere near an imminent nuclear weapon. the arab league has called for a peacekeeping force to be deployed in syria saying the u.n. plan cannot 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 recorded we've 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 i just want to finish now who is in damascus reports and how me is turning into yet another tool of war sometimes just as dangerous as a rifle. the the new evening news mesa hears that the syrian army is shell in residential areas and homes. one watches another channel and he learns that the rebels are using civilians as a human shield while the young man attacks this stronghold when do the resolver the two neighbors from damascus who've been left 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 yes i'm a son 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 involved in 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 the president fleeing the rebels taking over the presidential palace it will demoralize people and even assad supporters will stop resisting and give up 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 leave the shia even leaves that qatar based channel al jazeera broadcast pictures from tripoli central green square showing rebels

celebrate in the regime's fall days before they actually enter the city and move he claims have the rebels stood runs 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 had as a broadcasting company that provides r.t. with live pictures from damascus says such a swap east technically possible but he doubts people would fall for it how to. 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 it in order. to fix a lot another investigative journalist from damascus has spent the last ten months exposing what he thinks is proof of foreign media medlin in syrian events either the international media discredit of themselves or read in the too many cases

drawing their interest biased no one believes them people used to but no longer trust. there are a few crude first to 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 brand pictures and footage that cannot be independently verified but when information many probation is very hard to expose its impact such as international condemnation and calls for military foreign intervention is impossible to ignore. me for notion of damascus syria. i work in r.t. live from moscow and 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 at what's waiting for you there at the moment while reports uncover

a former she was styled disaster averted in the nick of time at a nuclear plant in california so you have a details on why. also read the story of two people arrested in moscow for using their own ambulance to be to this notorious traffic jams. be able to go to war horse was given oats we have a lot of illegal groups of the blue collars with hooves is also argues in the writing of my mouth it was like many other marriage it wasn't forced marriage it's just my view when i was fourteen years old you can liberate there when you certainly can't do it through the barrel of a gun only if they give social changes will be the afghans themselves

afghan men and women we believe are going to start going to the cross paths without the part of the patient it's. but they said that it comes to action but it's the people in the obama administration talking about how much they care about the women of afghanistan it's not true they don't care about the women of afghanistan. it'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 determining who will write its new constitution the mamet's will strip the country's leader of almost all significant powers official election results are expected until thursday but the muslim brotherhood has claimed an early victory supporters of these lamas 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 one hundred five he says one 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 dejection people stand and how do you 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 rule. an egypt is the supreme court it should be for years to come. coming president to be godless whether it's the muslim brotherhood can do that or. would be nothing short of a puppet of the military now let's take a look at some other stories from around the world a suicide blast has killed at least fifteen people at a shia funeral in iraq forty others were wounded in the attack which happened in the town north of baghdad the bomber detonated his explosive belt in a town and were mourners gathered to pay respects to a tribal chief at 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 sea of kandahar it sparked a gun battle between officers and insurgents which lasted for an hour six others

were wounded in the a tad it comes just one day after a three gunmen wearing afghan police uniforms killed a nato service member in the same region. a second israeli air strike in a matter of hours this 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 the strikes came just hours after gunmen killed an israeli civilian and a construction worker on the israeli egyptian border tel aviv insists the attacks were not in retaliation. during the boom here is ireland's construction industry reached new heights but it seems they were building a house of cards that would come crashing down when the economy tumbled it's left whole ghost neighborhoods in a number of the country cities with few sure when anyone can breathe life into them laura smith reports. there's a new word in ireland no but 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 ireland's littered with estate 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 epitomises what's gone wrong in arland. it'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 can we move forward or when we're going to move forward 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 for the problem was that banks here and financial institutions believe they were doing the right thing so they were basically shoveling money at people who couldn't solve it people were chasing it and building housing that nobody needed between one nine hundred ninety one and two thousand and ten island nearly a million 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. this is whitefield mother and inside that there are around thirty houses about

a third of which remains 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 which took me ten years we have an oversupply of everything between houses and retail units. but i honestly do believe that we have hit the bottom 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 euro smith r.t. dublin. well a decision of julian assange his interview show is just hours away this time he says down with emraan candidate pakistani anti-corruption activist and politician

to talk about the controversial war on terror pushed by the us well the show will air right here on r.t. at eleven thirty am g.m.t. but here's a preview. war on. this. is the day when war. actually war was over as one would win hearts and minds of if you lose the war this is that there is the word this is. owned by his own is already close to do that it was used by. a racist and it's a bull run society then it was used by whatever million is used in the us is we don't really want to use the americans of. this. war what do we know what is different. in states. is doing this is.

a story there is no military solution only political solution. to ensue should we do. a good. starter. if you. are a change of pace and straight to the world of business so it's another choppy day for european markets i suspect i suspect so too marian absolutely and if we look at the opening figures for the european markets will be able to see what investors are saying right now and their reaction to those spanish boring costs now reaching euro area highs of seven percent lissie health. before me in the first of twenty minutes also relate that there's also concerns about bad loans in spain surging all adding

to the speculation that they will be the next country needing a sovereign bailout they've already had the bank bailout bess's as well be looking towards the g twenty meeting as well as some concrete solutions to stem the the ongoing crisis the fancy for now with all optimism we've got around to hope of is that that other that's around of you said just now it was i said the pressure is on a friday much a u.s. president barack obama and for the german chancellor to for some action are going forward for investors to really focus upon and if we look at the common currency we'll be able to see how the euro is responding as well want twenty six zero six to the traders favorite the brutal as well as another thing to lose doubts as to the basket of currencies this is a the us dollar and if we look at the russian markets as well we see that investors are feeling the pressure here we've got both we've got mixed sentiments right now we've got the artist's role for basis points down on the my sex so my. the hold on that quarter of a percent in a positive territory at this hour so

a change of fortunes as a slightly in the second hour of trade here in moscow so with that in my let's have a look at some of the blue chips that was to step back the biggest lead to hit around six tenths of a percent in negative territory ross hydroelectricity company. around one point eight percent down much softer reports russia's state energy holding ras you have to go to acquire a blocking stake in the company after the call maker two point nine percent in positive territory and that soft on monday it began the pre cereal production of the new newsstand met a car moving on we see how the asian markets finished up the nikkei is that she now . a lot of those stocks were under pressure because they are a date exposed to the euro zone reaches the nikkei that around one percent down in the session the hang sign is still moving and shaking if we look at some of the saudi because while they were down canon to shiva big big tech companies that

really suffered in today's session a lot of that as well is because the yen is actually stronger we know that it exports as they have a stronger current say alright is have a look at those oil prices they are indeed dropping for a second as you can see just add up a lot of those saying that they really want. the organization of petroleum exporting countries to really stand the production in order to correlate with what's going on in the global markets at the moment no i didn't mention the g. twenty so let's talk about it in terms of the emerging markets now these are also known as the brics and they have increased their contribution to the i.m.f. the decision was agreed the groups in full will be seeing a head of the opening of the g twenty summit in mexico the countries will provide the fund with an additional seventy five billion dollars and ten billion of that will come from russia and this will help the i.m.f. to significantly increase its lending power to protect the global economy from the
