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

this is r.t. coming to you live from moscow i'm marina joshua welcome to the program the president's body report number one obama have pledged commitment to solving syria diplomatically emblematic civil war there that lock in the middle east was just one issue the two has discussed on the sidelines of the g twenty summit in mexico kind of she 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 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 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 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 not much all of the leaders said this monday was that they were going to continue the dialogue another issue very controversial there are attempts in congress to pass a new respecting law against russia that would be tied to human rights travel ban and financial sanctions against those russian officials and the u.s. congress deems as involved in human rights violation and the so-called smoking

ischia law the leaders did not comment on that pending legislation but russian officials say if passed by the congress it would trigger a series of moves because there is a potentially long list of american officials to be punished for taking part in human rights violations in secret prisons in iraq and afghanistan and guantanamo 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 and south africa had a separate meeting that they're 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 virgin markets are now the engine of the global economy.

she's going to check on reporting there from the g twenty summit in mexico a former member of the reagan administration says no matter what obama tells boudin person the u.s. president is just one link in a long chain of foreign policy makers. convinced that putin does not war 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 and regime change in syria and obama is not exactly in a position to be able to stop that. he will do what he can to get along with scruton but he still has to represent the agenda. world in general and regime change and so the situation. isn't

resolved while at the g twenty and self world leaders have voice their concern over the eurozone crisis calling it the single biggest threat to the world economy well they have said progress has been way too slow in dealing with the situation and this comes after sunday's elections in greece failed to produce now right winner again to form a new government a probate while the democracy party won almost thirty percent of the vote and is now urgently seeking to form a coalition the new government will have a mammoth task ahead especially as the german chancellor angela merkel said there will be no changes in the assyrian cuts that are part of the greek bailout but some experts believe even if a deal is reached between the parties over half of the greek people will remain on represented. i think it's quite possible that you'll find a coalition within the next few days but there are two things that are important to note here the first one is that the parties in question new democracy and pasok

they only have the majority in parliament to to the security at greek election rules in fact more than fifty percent up for its french to e.u. critical parties so i think you might want to find. they brought a coalition be if you want some true legitimacy to the decisions that will be made that said yes you might have some difficult negotiations but more importantly none of the two blocs in the greek parliamentary election had a credible plan for turning the greek economy around from its current meltdown so regardless of who takes over the risk of a greek exit from the euro remains high either there will be a renegotiation off of the treaty or reese will eventually have to leave the euro and the problem here is that if economic circumstances are allowed to deteriorate any further now everybody can see already today that austerity is killing greece it's also killing spain portugal ireland and other european economies if you leave that to fester for two long it won't be a deliberative political decision when greece leaves it will be forced by economic

circumstances so i think germany will have to back off from this one of face a responsibility of some kind of euro break up before too many months have passed. and later this hour we report on another country still struggling with its economic woes despite having already been thrown financial lifeline. hopes and dreams are 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. now two days of intense talks between six world powers and iran are underway in moscow where the controversial atom still splitting the site to iran wants the rights to enrich uranium to a higher level or at least receive such materials from abroad by the e.u.

and america are committed to our suring in tough new economic sanctions against iran in the coming weeks and israel has even threatened to bomb the country in the u.s. congress is pressuring the president to take tougher action budget mob from the national reigning 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 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 sanctioning 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 of what every ron's aspirations in terms of its nuclear 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 delay 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. well 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 the city of homs and the town of duma activists say at least seventy nine civilian soldiers and the rebels have been killed in the country since the u.n. observers the span of their mission three days ago russia has reportedly been

preparing to sand ships and marines to its naval base in syria to protect people and remove equipment in case the conflict gascolator the red cross believes up to a million and a half people are now in desperate need of humanitarian help artist marie ivanovna who's 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 mason 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 men 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 for 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 in the city and that. 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 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 leave yeah 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 entered the city and move he claims help the rebels to advance after we can get office followers in syria the

journalist warns things may go much further differs 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 the head of the broadcasting company that provides r.t. with live pictures from damascus says such a swap is 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 you know. we're fix a lot and now the investigative journalist 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 dragging their interest biased no one believes them people used to but no longer trust with the. or if it prefers 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 wrong pictures and footage that cannot be independently verified but well information many probation is very hard to expose its impact such as international condemnation and calls for military foreign intervention is impossible to ignore. rafer notion of damascus syria. i wish you guys you live from moscow and keep in mind that we have more news and videos available for you on our website r t let's take a look out what's waiting for you there at the moment reports on coverage because she was style disaster averted in the nick of time at a nuclear plant in california ever details on line also.

be watching our team members of egypt's muslim brotherhood are expected to demonstrate against an interim constitution put in place by the country's ruling military council the constitution dissolved egypt's islam has dominated parliament by giving full legislative power to the ruling generals they've since promised to hand control to the new president by the end of the month but the amendments will strip the winner of almost all powers well official election results aren't expected until thursday by. it's the muslim brotherhood has claimed an early victory supporters of these on this party gathered in tahrir square celebrating now it's been made by party leader mohamed morsi the claims are being rejected by rival contender ahmed shafik accuses the muslim brotherhood of trying to the presidency middle east analyst and public speaker on international affairs of my party 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 at a shia funeral in iraq forty others were wounded in the attack which happened in a town north of baghdad the bomber detonated his explosive belt in a tent where mourners gathered to pay respects to a tribal chief a wave of bombing started a 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 it comes just one day after three gunmen wearing afghan police uniforms killed a nato service member in the same region. a second israeli airstrike in

a matter of hours has killed two palestinians in the gaza strip pushing the overall death toll to four the attacks which have a town of beit hanoun have been go firm by the israeli military 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 years island'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 its last hole goes deeper hood's in a number of the country cities with few sure when anyone can breathe life into them with reports. this is 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 islands littered

with 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 lay town outside 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. where we are in this country at the moment we're all suspended waiting for something to happen we don't know can we move forward or when we're going to move forward people

round 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 but 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 cared and saw that people were taking it and building housing but nobody needed between 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 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 in the next ten years we have an oversupply of everything between houses and retail units. but i honestly do believe that we have at the bottom meanwhile someone has to pay for all those bad loans into. mostly by french and german banks and the buck has stopped with the irish taxpayer on the hook the ninety billion euros in bailouts you are smith owed to me. by the latest edition of joining us on his interview show is just hours away this time he says down was emraan khan a pakistani end to corruption activist and politician to talk about the controversial war on terror pushed by the u.s. now the show will air right here on r.t. at eleven thirty g.m.t.

here's a preview. the war on terror is this some of the confusion is that you win a war on 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 the. largest one is more regulated that it was eight years by the start of this liberation it's a bull run society than it was a few years back whatever two million is used not a solution we are feared for eight years the americans are fearful eleven years what what what are we going to do not what is different. the instances madness is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result it started to happen there's no military solution only with this political solution by the southern part of that into consideration we do not have got additions look you will all get a bit of both so you need elections
