if. it were. a slap in the face for america's military ambitions after poland's president calls the antimissile the fans agreement with the us to the stand and announces his own few plants. awaiting their fate in the controversial policy ride trial a verdict is expected any time the prosecution of the man three years behind bars for the female trio. leiby of braces for its first posted off a transition of power from its interim leaders to an elected assembly despite new violence aftershocks from the revolution. last british police are accused of using stop and search powers to target black people officers claim they're banning gang

crime minorities feel discriminated against. a day out in the russian capital you're watching r.t.i. marina joshie welcome to the program poland's could make a break from its military protectors in the u.s. while the country's president suggesting the development of a missile to fan shield all that's on the polish leader said a deal to allow parts of america's planned system on its territory left security at the mercy of a policy shift in washington. explains. signing an agreement with washington on taking part in the european anti-missile defense shield project was a big political mistake this was the message of the polish president komorowski spoke to a polish newspaper saying that his country played a high political price for signing this agreement back in two thousand and eight something which he believes must not must not repeat itself must not happen again
12:02 am
he probably meant that countries previous administration signed this agreement with washington in two thousand and eight that poland would take part in the european a.m.d. project. having american missiles american troops on its soil then when the president obama when president obama came to office when there was a change of administration in washington this plan was changed was altered and now poland is playing the consequences of relying too much on washington's efforts in building this european a.m.d. project rather than participating in this project having american troops on its soil recent going off to believe that poland should have its own anti-war anti-missile defense system which would guarantee that whatever whoever comes to office in washington still the polish defense would be active still still it would have the needed resources to fight off any attacks coming from the air from iraq states should they decide to attack poland right now the polish president believes
12:03 am
the current missile defense of the polish armed forces is very weak and outdated so rather than taking part in this project by nato by washington poland should invest into building its own system couple of years ago in two thousand and ten poland already hosted. several sets of the interceptor missiles of nato on its soil in the town of morag in northern poland something which was certainly criticized heavily in moscow saying that this move like this basically builds up the hostility in the region and comes a full contradiction with the agreements made between the two countries certainly it's really early to say what the new statements by bernice of komorowski could mean whether poland may take some kind of turn around and may change this policy and whether it may actually drop itself from the a.m.d. from the nato and u.s. a.m.d. project in europe but definitely a statement like that coming from the country's leader who is marking two years in office right now is something new and definitely brings

a lot of spice to this rather interesting interesting story as it is and i say if you ask your footing there are still the can the sour not welcome anymore power shifts in egypt. put the states relations with israel to the test with jews feeling the heat on the streets. of turkey steps up attacks currents rebels fearing they'll exploit turmoil in syria some analysts believe this is the first sign of anger as calls to oust said that bahrain. a mosque accord reviewing the case of feminist punk band pussy riot is set to announce the date when the verdict will be read out prosecutors are demanding three year jail sentences for the women who held a protest in russia's main orthodox cathedral well for more on this we're joined live by correspondent you know. we're pretty good morning to you now we've heard all the evidence of this point so what else are we expecting today. well we are
12:05 am
expecting there's a show made and will go on but exactly for a long that is still yet unclear of course defense is insisting that the defendants the three members of the three sitting with the riot upon the band are innocent they should be acquitted and of course you have to remember that at the main objective of prosecution is to make sure is the to their they they are basically saying that with the right are guilty of inciting religious hatred that and also inflicting severe psychological trauma on those who were at the crisis to their cathedral on the day of their performance now the punk band members themselves as well as their defense are saying that that was not what they were trying to do that they are in fact respective of people's religious views and beliefs and that their message was purely politically motivated and it was basically in response to everything that was that is happening and russia now all of the three members have been previously. seen participating in other scandalous scenes or events or
12:06 am
actions put together by the areas are groups it wasn't just that punk bad performance at the punk is still called punk player at the cathedral so what least one of them was. participating in a rather scandalous action in one of russia's museums which involved a really bold sex act which was videotaped as well so there are there is still a lot of controversy surrounding this trial surrounding the members that the defendants of the group paul ryan child right now so it will be interesting to see exactly how it plays out they are expected to make their last pleas today but whether or not we will hear the verdict as yet remains unclear whether i will the case caused a major international debate what more can you tell us about that. well of course there were of course the trial has been incredibly well publicized in russia and actually at this point we can probably honestly say that pussy riot are world famous without even without even trying that hard they have received support from

plays into the hands of some world powers. what i would say is this is that the united states is very happy if libya becomes a kind of chaotic place where there's no real there's no real central power that whatever oppose anything they do if there is some you know borderline secular people battling islamicist and so on and so forth and there's not a strong man like gadhafi who actually would question the washing consensus which threaten to offer a different kind of monetary standard who would oppose washington and israel and foreign policy if if washington can't prevent someone like that i think washington would be happy i think washington would be happy if you have islamicist squabbling with other factions and you have this parliament that has no clear majority and that would last for decades in libya just kind of sinks into a

their efforts to tackle knife gun and gang crime but its efficacy and legality has been questioned by the equality and human rights commission who point to excessive use on ethnic minorities and they say in some areas up to three hundred people are stopped before a single arrest is made it's marginalizing entire communities just the experience of being repeatedly stopped and stopped for what seems like very little reason and stopped what seems to be just your ethnicity has a very damaging effect on the community and it makes the community feel that were other than being a part of the society is being protected there are problem this being policed against a disconnect between the police and the people they was one of the factors found to have sparked the last august's riots the disturbances started here in tottenham after the shooting by police of a young black man. and as the first anniversary of the riots approaches is

a situation young people say hasn't got any better the metropolitan police say they are changing the way they work here they're attending a meeting with young black people in the area to listen to their concerns but tell me says it's all for show has been a pretty. attendant crime sure doesn't change. the police that if when you approach is revised traded we're trying to engage with the community a lot more in numerous ways but they don't they don't seem to weapon l. me goes on with his legal training while getting shaken down by the police ten times a week so in the future he can advocate to his community laura smith. on the other side of the ocean the authorities also stand accused later this hour we talked an occupy activists on a war veteran who was brutally beaten by police while protesting against corporations and their puppet politicians he says the future of america should be defined by its people. a lot of veterans getting her by this is that is
12:19 am
you know in the sense that they come back to a broken system a system that they feel disconnected from and that's why we're having a thousands of veterans commit suicide most likely we're either going to vote for a democrat or republican and i think both those are wrong choices they're both working for the same system that they both take money from the same people from the same banks and. you can see in their policies that they are rewarding their donors and. voting for their continuance of policy is not going to change anything at all. target government has its troops have killed one hundred fifteen kurdish rebels over the past two weeks in a stepped up offensive ankara's worried the kurds have been fighting for autonomy since ninety four going to spoil the power vacuum in the neighboring syria and some

experts say the calls for regime change emanating from turkey are only making the situation worse. serial case very ironic case for turkey because turkey is for the first time demanding a regime change in syria which is a unique case in turkish history since the its creation in one nine hundred twenty three turkey for the first time demands a regime change in a neighboring country but this strategy we know is producing some counterproductive outcomes that is the autonomy of kurdish groups searle. i mean it is not clear what to do with these two code kurdish groups nor to syria i'm not saying all the kurdish groups in norton syria are against turkey as far as i know there are more than twenty five independent kurdish groups but some of them are seriously and by turkish mainly the p.y. of the do. is you know branch ignore to iraq war in iraq so a lot in syria so of course they resent the failure of

12:23 am
we've seen this happen again not that long ago and this i'm stunned that implores has lowered its outlook from positive negative and basically the ratings agencies believe is that greece will not be able to meet their requirements and that is to make more cards and that is exactly what. to get the next tranche of bailout funds from the e.u. of course and just to give you some more details on that this time around greece avoided the credit downgrade we're talking about an outlook here and that's maybe because its ratings are already so bad that could not get any worse really the troubled economy may need as much as seven billion euros this year to stay afloat. given it's been shrinking for the last five years on the foreign skyrockets and twenty. knots on a look at how some international markets are doing asia is the only one trader right now and we see it's a pause the picture that make a adding over a half a percent this hour and a hang sign point three seven percent and again japanese basically steel companies

12:25 am
a look at some exchange rates see where they stand this hour the euro that is a very good in every hour we have it's against the u.s. dollar there and then when it comes to the ruble those are the figures that we saw overnight as well not overnight i should say the previous session now we can see that it managed to. music guns both major currencies coming down from those haul eyes over the summer that we saw in the past two biggest sessions moving on so i can look at the russian markets that will open in about two hours from now and we're seeing the picture that both the arts yes and the mines six out of exactly point eight one percent each and again you know we saw volatility in crude prices when it comes to choose those session and there were basically invites there's a struggle between gains and losses are trying to move on faster than me but it's ok there would have oil prices there and we've seen that they're declining but then there's still more lies during that time are compared to the quizes we saw in the past couple of months and of course even though they're on their way down it's still very good for the russian economy out there at
12:26 am
a level where they are and what we know about oil prices is that basically the recent gains we saw and i say that there were excessive i mean all of that we've created a demand in the u.s. which is still the world's of biggest consumer of crude and that's what's happened in the fact there and basically this brings us to the end of this edition of business marina. all right thanks very much indeed and as always looking forward to more and again our so stay with us for that and we'll bring you the headlines next here on our.
