anything mission to teach me reason why you should care about humans and. this is why you should. only. be turkish prime minister visits moscow for syria crisis talks as the un security council stands divided on how to bring peace to the war torn country. the games in the balance as a private security firm proves incompetent it is now you are agents who are being flown in to have manning the posts at british airports. and making joint h.s.b.c. tied to terrorist cash as washington reports the lenders money laundering saudi arabia groups finance terror.

all screaming online twenty four hours a day seven days a week this is r t with me karen tara. deep international divisions on how to curb the syrian conflict the problem a list of neighboring turkey arrives in the russian capital for talks moscow and al qada have opposing views on how to resolve the crisis which is very much reflected in the u.n. which votes later today on just what to do. as the details. prime minister erdogan is meeting with russian president vladimir putin to discuss syria the two countries are allies but this is one area where the two countries disagree turkey they're calling for assad to step down and for regime change syria has said that turkey has become a hotbed of terrorism and of course tensions have not been great between the country since a june twenty second where syria shot down a turkish airplane now russia's stance on the situation is that they are wanting to promote dialogue they're opposed of sanctions of any kind against syria and they

also don't want any kind of foreign military intervention and this might be one of the reasons why earth began is here today to try and make one last ditch attempt to sway russia to the side of the international community in one of the sections of the security council resolution that is on the table is a clause that allows a for military intervention as a last resort this is something that russia strongly opposes kofi annan was here this week wrapping up a two day visit his second trip to the country on the topic of syria so russia a hot bed of diplomacy a central hub for talks on the subject but right now that main sticking point is russia does not want to see boots on the ground or foreign military intervention in syria now what we do know is on the ground in syria over the night the rebels have claimed that there has been more fighting over the night something that the syrian

government flatly denies they say that there is no rebel are offensive against the city of damascus archies them or if notion is in damascus this is what she has to say what's happening on the ground the capital damascus since the beginning of the uprising last march has most of the time been under governmental control and the closest the fighting has been moved and has been in its. heart of damascus outskirts in the area known as duma they have been several assault. against opposition hotbeds but the clashes have never actually taken place inside this city and activists and residents have described was going on in damascus as the most intense they have iest violence since the beginning of the uprising last march and the opposition groups have also been reporting that the army has been using more taws and even the coals and how he called and has been shelling in the areas where the rebels are this information is very hard to be very far we're hearing from

governmental sources here that a great number of terrorists have been killed during these operations many rebels have been captured and few in number have surrendered but what is absolutely clear is that armed groups have achieved to spread this fear in damascus this feeling of despair and of chaos here in the capital. kabul farrah's researcher benjamin shut believes the syrian opposition is using the fear it spread in damascus to pressure foreign allies over military intervention. into the. cause. despite so. far. i'm going. to go through russia and china going on. the

so-called humanitarian intervention. now is global affairs researcher benjamin talking to us from canada. but security failing in the upcoming london olympics the u.s. is taking matters into its own hands washington a sending in its own agents after the shamed to private security firm a g for us to train enough staff meanwhile the latest poll shows almost half of britons feel their country is poorly prepared for the games parties laura smith reports. as athletes and guests start to arrive here at heathrow airport for london's olympic games they'll be met by all the usual sites including loans that immigration as u.k. border officials struggle to cope with the sheer numbers involved but it won't be just u.k. officials felt come across some may be surprised to see american agents operating on british soil the u.s.

out of some sort of time for the israeli government. explains. at the current moment the status quo is such that religious jews do not serve in the idea of compared to the majority of secular israelis who serve at least two to three years now we'll look at them a party joined netanyahu government a little more than two months ago its running paul at the time was that it was going to put an end to this exemption that the two sides have failed to reach agreement over the drafting of new legislation it could trigger the withdrawal of other political parties it makes in this one yahoo that much more vulnerable to pressure from the far right wing political groupings and the religious parties and at the same time it also no longer allows him to claim that he presides over a government of national unity because he certainly doesn't it is making him that much more weaker both domestically and internationally and it comes at

a time when israel is trying to deal with its worsening public image in light of a number of issues not least of all the social protests this past weekend that saw an israeli city himself on fire and this has provoked anger and frustration throughout the country certainly also in the international community there is the possibility that the government might have to go for early elections the question being asked is why did not only are not foreseen this development if indeed he did why did he choose to ignore it because it comes at such a vulnerable time it comes at a time when the country is having to deal with very unstable neighbors who are going through their own political upheaval and also with the whole question of the rand the question of whether or not israel will strike you round is still very much looming over the reputation of the sky vermont policy our team tel aviv. and for more on the divisions plaguing israel head to our to dot com here's what

the official location. talk from the. video. old goals. and street now in the palm of your. welcome to our team eleven minutes past the hour and the u.k. banking scandal deep in london based h.s.b.c. stands accused of allowing money to flow to terrorists and u.s. government report has accused h.s.b.c. of laundering drug cartel cash ignoring sanctions and helping saudi arabian organizations finance terrorism earlier my colleague bill dart spoke to middle east affairs expert only risk who says people will not allow this to continue. i think

this proves what many people have said all along that it is saudi arabia which is the main export of radical all of this religious extremism or radical elements and i think how they handle it explains why you don't want guys under what guys we're talking about what sort of terrorist groups are we talking about here while we're talking about you know for example the extremism of those people who are now for example of causing violence in syria or those who were sent to chechnya are the pay people of groups it was pakistan even our car there as well we have to have to say here are some elements of the royal firmly you also have their contacts have contributed as well to our car but more importantly i think that this report. sheds light on the whole lie and say between the saudi family the saudi royal family and some western countries what this will do is put more pressure on the

western governments to try and change their policy here now of course saudi arabia is considered to be an ally for how long could this continue a many people are speculating that maybe the western governments might reconsider might soon reconsider their alliance why. would they be doing that first of all because we have the uprisings currently happening which puts more pressure on the on the u.s. government on the british government the saudi arabia until now hasn't taken any steps towards political reform and the other reason is that saudi arabia when it becomes more annoyed that saudi arabia is the main source of this extremism that were laid to a popular vigilance for example in the u.s. in countries like britain i believe that this report and more similar developments would put more pressure on the on the u.s. and all of these western countries. was once known as the land of opportunity where

you can literally turn rags to riches but today's economic hardships have brought the american dream ranking to a halt leaving many people with little chance of making a decent living in a point nine has more. but in the unlikely story that is america. there has never been anything. about health. who has always been central to the national myth known as the american dream the problem is today's harsh reality of economic inequality leaves the promised land offering less opportunity for a better life depending on who you are and what your objectives are and what your resources are america may not be the best choice anymore according to reports germany canada and the scandinavian countries all have better social mobility than the us this means citizens living in those nations have a greater chance of increasing their income and status through hard work everyone

in the countries you mention have systems that are focused on giving people maximum opportunity education mostly free in those societies medical care generally available and free childcare generally available and free when you add up all those conditions you're facilitating every person's ability to find a career to get an education to get the skill training that will allow them to do better than they are in their parents' generation america's current landscape is a bit different for the first time since the great depression american men are earning less than their fathers did. and more than fifty percent of recent us college graduates are unemployed or working low wage jobs this as the an affordable cost of higher education in america has produced a national student debt bubble topping one trillion dollars teachers meanwhile are among the seven hundred thousand federal and state public workers who have

reportedly been laid off since the crisis hit the u.s. a country where sixteen million are reported to be without full time jobs and approximately fifty million people are living without medical insurance now we've reached a point where the middle class is shrinking. and sighs and what is growing is the distinction between the people who have the american dream the people who don't and the people who will never get it as millions of americans are sliding down the economic ladder median household income has it moved up in more than a decade americans are making less now than when bill clinton was in the white house while the top one percent have nearly tripled their fortune since the eighty's we have a. deeper pool of poor people than ever before and unlike before experts say it's more likely that poor americans will remain in familiar waters we're not growing we haven't grown in this economy in

a significant way for almost six or seven years now and so there isn't the expansion in the company that means we need to hire forty more people we don't have that we're laying off everywhere we're cutting back everywhere. also being slashed is the muscle behind america's labor force over the decades the number of u.s. unions has declined those who have standing are being stripped of bargaining rights and existing benefits the elevator for people at the bottom to get up and out we're trade unions and once america went on the warpath against trade unions and the dust realization they're kind of went along with it that that blocked the pads for low income people to get decent jobs a stagnant reality american dreamers are now forced to reckon with marina port r.t. new york. and of course tuesday's comments by u.s. federal reserve chairman ben bernanke haven't exactly encouraged americans either

merino what happened paul basically crowned what we saw there is ben bernanke the face of the grim outlook for the u.s. economy and he also said that reduction in the unemployment rate will be frustratingly low haven't sucked that investors or that man is rendered it's actually most of the so it's or so after all maybe barack obama was right in the hole but does remain in the united states i have more on the market action and reaction in five minutes. time now for more stories making headlines around the world almost two dozen nato supply trucks have been destroyed in a bomb attack in afghanistan a device planted on a fuel tank or detonated engulfing others nearby the vehicles were transporting fuel into the country from neighboring uzbekistan the attack comes after pakistan lifted a blockade on nato supply routes into afghanistan in a move that provoked anger across the country. the final results in libya's

election have been confirmed as lama coalition led by wartime prime minister mahmoud jibril has won thirty nine out of eighty seats available the muslim brotherhood gained seventeen while the west sees the election as broadly liberal journalist patrick a is believes there's not much for the libyan people to celebrate. we're not for nato intervention last year i think these elections should really have been something to celebrate the election itself has been administered by the national transitional council which was effectively cherry picked by the west role for the then actually selected by the libyan people it's another body and there's been a lot of disagreements there's been a lot of protests over the past nine by the libyan people who are unhappy with the lack of transparency from the governments they're unhappy with the fact that the transitional council does not represent all the people they want to be in power.

and you can catch the full interview with patrick hayes in just over an hour right here on r.t.c. . parliamentary elections in georgia may be several months away but the government and their opponents are gearing up for the fight police have arrested three opposition activists for allegedly violating party funding laws as artie's arena ports it's led to claims the government is using underhanded methods to cling on to power. where was my friends who were kidnapped by the by george imposed by the kind of which we accompanied by georgian polis like many of the outspoken critics of the regime of president saakashvili who go is used to this kind of treatment but now as parliamentary elections draw closer the authorities are trying to derail any opposition momentum on top of the tried and trusted methods of shutting down the opposition where there are three things but is a circus really seems to have switched his attention to their wallets now all the

donors are subjected to thorough investigations and the recent parties themselves are usually slapped with have to find a new law imposed earlier this year bans corporate donors and puts a rigid cap on donations made by individuals who incidentally it came into effect shortly after georgia's wealthiest businessmen billionaire businessman she really founded his own political party georgian dream about after even if she only became the new face of the georgia opposition saakashvili became seriously worried and began hampering our efforts the first his trip to be even issuing of his georgian citizenship and is now trying to take away his business under this new law even his release party has already been fined more than a million dollars for allegedly receiving illegal donations opposition parties with smaller budgets aren't overlooked by the government either party was trying to

buy two hundred used or two hundred dollars on the us dollar and it's a huge amount for a. budget of two months so these fighters show sanchez it means that real position parties are prohibitive in georgia cutting cash flow appears to be the latest weapon in. with the opposition and with only three months before the elections it seems the playing field is becoming increasingly on. in tbilisi georgia if you are. all right marina while we heard about the trading session in the u.s. and there are still hope there what is happening elsewhere all can we see in the whole pretty much everywhere right now except for a huge i have to say it was a sea of red but the transaction is over there now let's focus on what's happening right now that is europe and the figures that we're seeing more against basically nothing major per se so that the footsie and the facts are again around half

a percent more lies and that's basically because of course the earnings report that we got from credit suisse but having said that when it comes to ericsson that missed analysts forecast but it didn't seem to have much of an effect on investors . that we're seeing that they're extending gains that we saw and choose that as the spike falling crude prices which of course always have a major effect on the russian economy ali you have more of that a little bit later as you can see the r.t.s. is now adding point eight three percent and the my six has moved data about fly a territory let's take a look at the main movers on the was on the blue chips there we have got in point eight percent and what we know about the company there is that it ranked seventh in the world in the list of the world's biggest lenders by capitalize ation when it comes to wrongs that we know that we might see some changes in its told level management some time soon of course we'll bring you all the detail of a soon as that happens and when it comes to gas form after this game and just the knowledge and we know about the company's plan and a book to go in. because it's going through the privatization of one of the local

companies day i. can give you more details on that the company is currently estimated at around half a billion dollars but i'm going to set up the acquisition could be risky and that's because the albanian company there's no publicizes financial reports and most of its oil deposits all hard to develop. now i was saying earlier of course that oil is very important for the russian economy and it's from a seven the we call either as you can see why it's what is trading at around eighty nine. all the brands slowly approaching one hundred four dollars from al so much better than what we've been seeing in the past couple of months but at the same time whenever we seen that those red daggers as they say it it's never the temple of washington busters and all of this is happening because we are dead in signals from the u.s. basically about china's economy my drop we're seeing the weakness there and also of course demand now for move on and talk about currencies when it comes to the ruble still similar picture when seen in the morning the ruble is next against the main

currencies when it comes to the euro it's retreating against the greenback in fact the spreading out soon lois and of course all of this has to do with of course everything that's happened in the euro zone that that price as you about to see on the graph you will see how the progress in all of this place if we can have a look at the graph now you'll see that basically how that that problem is in the concerns in the euro zone that that affecting at there we go and basically the latest reports of one of the main foreign exchange speculators outside banks says the european authorities are hardly helping to stabilize the situation and artie's home buyers and discuss the issue with the head of the bank's f.x. strategy that's. the only way the year is going to stay together two things need to happen first dream is to become more involved and be more generous than it's going to be so far in the equation and as well we need to see a restructuring of the debt is too much the periphery we can't keep the lock in the current solution is that germany is offering saving austerity that is not the way

it usually is no way to save our way and solution that requires that somebody takes the loss and the debt is written off to a certain extent to allow it to be sustainable if you talk to the electorate and bay want to hear from bankers today don't just want a church do you say to them. point the system you've been badly mistreated by bankers by people like yourself or do you turn around and say to them you have to shut up. stop protesting all have to realize as a society that it's not about throwing one party out and bringing another party and it's about realizing this loss has to be taken your pension is not worth as much as you think it is because some of this needs to be written down so that realization that is an important step towards towards real change towards a restructuring taking that loss realizing that the upfront pain is actually better because it creates a sustainable system going to pay for reform is now unneeded and the past has to be

gone through there's no way to escape it although it may be too late to go on exactly unfortunately the longer it goes on the bigger the system or that the pilot builds up so it becomes more painful in the long run it's better to take the hit now rather than later in the e.u. is going to be the first place to take the hit because of its fragile political fiscal framework. that in the about you but i think it's easy to talk about painful reforms once you do have a job but if the job happens to be in the bank when it comes to all their citizens and their pensions are being cut obviously that's not something they want to do and that's what we see all the protests that's what i have for the south all right thanks for that update marian of course viewers can always turn to our t. dot com forward slash business for the latest. and i'll update you on our top stories in just a few minutes. one
