these masters are working out whether greece should get more time to sort out its bailout reforms while in germany chancellor merkel's allies say athens leaving the euro would be no big deal. u.s. special troops are on standby to go into syria following president obama's warning of a board for rising intervention if there are signs damascus is moving its chemical weapons. russia asked the u.s. to hand over businessman victor boot who's been jailed for twenty five years for conspiring to kill americans but maintains he's the victim of a political which. you

just showed is very good evening to you from me kevin owen here in moscow it's eleven pm now and you're watching r.t. now our top story it's crunch time for greece the german leader and french president are working at whether to grant athens the breathing space it needs to sort its finances out the country's been relying on international loans for over two years now but is still struggling to meet its bailout conditions meantime chancellor merkel's allies in berlin say a greek exit would have a great impact sorry wouldn't have a great impact on the eurozone pitter all of us in the german capital. in terms of merkel and all land you're looking at the heads of the two biggest economies in europe if you think of the eurozone as a family they're essentially the mom and dad but the problem child the child that everybody is talking about at the minute and trying to fix the problems with is greece chancellor merkel saying that greece must stick to the timetable of cuts and then savings if it's to be allowed to receive the next round of of bailout money

france war and seems a little bit more willing to bend a little and give greece extra time now in terms of what they're doing with internal politics here in germany we're hearing from under the merkel's own party the deputy chairman of the party saying it's no big loss if greece leaves the eurozone course angle or merkel has to keep everybody rowing in the same direction everybody pulling in the same direction and she of course has elections here next year greece becoming increasingly unpopular on the ground here in germany germans wondering well why are they paying out money towards helping them because the reality is that greece isn't given extra time then they're going to have to cut even deeper and it's those deeper cuts that are just going to mean more protests more anger and more violence and more suffering on the greek people are these people of rebellion well investment advisor told me whether or not greece is provided with more time there's no chance it'll manage to get its economy back on

track within the eurozone. it's really rather sad this whole situation i mean the great political class are utterly delusional if they believe that they can possibly manage to make the numbers add up the numbers simply don't add up they have not added up in greece for two decades probably a great deal longer ultimately there is a fiction price to be won from greece greek economic numbers the idea that suddenly when you have an economy that's in a tailspin it's collapsing an incredible almost unprecedented grit that suddenly everything's going to switch around is really not going to hurt the situation for mrs merkel who has got a terrible dilemma is she's actually going to have to do something radical that she hasn't done before in the euro crisis which is making a decision under actually how she made any decisions a couple of years ago it would have been a lot better than the elastoplast the sticking plaster is that if you don't like to these euro crisis the truth is there's no messing around here greece is bankrupt

all star game over because mrs merkel must agree with her about her ventures she has to inject greece from the euro because tragically it's the only three million solution for everybody involved the eurozone debt shock waves buffeting britain to now there's a thought that the u.k. should look east for success more of that in the kinds report later this hour. tackle lazy britain fellow tories tell david cameron m.p. said that the u.k. had to resist work ethic towards that of south korea singapore and hong kong the tories of course don't want to address the elephant in the room the fact that their primary donors the banks. financially raped the vast majority of british people for all their worth you know they don't want to talk about that they want to it's the victims fault these people are their money stones almost better than the workhouse we get this economy growing at the productivity they got our productivity

in the prison. the u.s. special operations troops in the middle east on standby they went to syria american officials say the military is ready to go in if the white house decides it needs to secure chemical arms depots under syrian army control president obama earlier threaten that he might order intervention into syria if the regime moves or uses its chemical munitions meanwhile there are fears the direct foreign involvement in syria's internal conflict could lead to all the warfare exploding in the region the number of refugees now trying to escape the raging violence is putting neighboring countries on the strain of middle east correspondent paula sneer now look at the situation one struck. i'm standing at beaches atari can syrian jordanian border depending on the levels of fighting in syria anywhere between a thousand and three thousand people are fleeing across into jordan each day

becoming figures stand at some one hundred and fifty thousand refugees who are coming to in this country the condition in the camps is alarming we're hearing from human rights groups they're talking about a crisis in the making we know that the camp is overcrowded people here are complaining about extreme weather conditions about desert storm and we've also heard a number of incidents of six also bassman. in addition to this the jordanian police are investigating the first case of a person dying in the camp when a fire broke out now jordan is in a very difficult situation finds itself between a rock and a hard place on the one hand it is providing assistance to these refugees but it has its own very limited resources it has a fragile economy it has a basic lack of water in addition to this some of the violence in syria has spread across the border that is why residents of northern towns here in jordan have asked the jordanian officials to look after them particularly in light of a number of shells that recently landed in some of these towns injuring

a number of people policy r.t. at this atari refugee camp on the jordanian syrian border. more details on the jordanian refugee camp to the she's talking about there by following paul on twitter and the latest most is she says jordanians are telling of a very unhappy that their country which has so many refugees already now was to do with desperate syrians fleeing to safety. leaving barr only human rights activist has won his appeal against a three month sentence for writing on twitter criticizing the country's rulers but now bill road job remains in jail and on the lesson is like to spend three years there for been previously found guilty for inciting protests in the country let's discuss these latest developments tonight is one of the leaders of bahrain's opposition party. is joining us on the line live from the capital either possibly with us how significant is this victory for roger given that he's still behind bars

as i've been saying. yes sir. court told him that. he is not guilty about what he wrote. and the twitter but he will stay in a jail for three years that means. the court and regime just vanished human rights. people. their. opinion. and position we. should be free. i mean exactly because he does in. say and i think are wrong about what's happening in bahrain plus just before two hours two hours ago we. saw rigidity with mr robbie rogers in front of his house thousands and thousands of

citizens but any and affront as i was just calling for frito maybe russia ok so his acquittal over this tweet was it purely down to the international outcry over roger plight all something else. well. could you just explain your question. to the international outcry over his plight his acquittal over this tweet here. yes as nabeel rajab vice president of. the issue of. human rights and he's. a famous activists and no war or do i but i think. and also and london this afternoon there are some. activities would be richer and i think we call the people and all human

rights. organizations just the support by any people for free not only as human rights activists but all political leaders presidents ok ready just just focusing case for a minute in september the appeal courts are set to examine the three year sentence is currently serving after today's small victory do you hope of positive things to come from that. you are talking about twenty twenty one the groups i'm talking about one thing i know i'm looking about his current sentences current three year sentence of the series is going to be reviewed do you think there will be a positive outcome from that review yet depends on. how he think i think because his majesty again today visiting.

some political. activities. in bahrain especially some different. parliament and. sure a measure is what i think our own september on september if this is true asian state as it is i don't think maybe russia will be free because also under force of the end of september there are another twelve leaders. will be. very case will be in the court and they will decide to free or they will put on their. fifteen or twenty five years i say what we'll be watching closely of course thanks for your thoughts tonight the deputy center general bahrain's opposition party live from the capital thanks. russia's asking the u.s.

to extradite a businessman vic to boot to serving twenty five years in the states for conspiring to supply weapons to anti-american guerrillas in colombia the man widely labeled in the american media as the merchant of death maintains his innocence insisting his trial was purely political report nies in new york considering that the u.s. has spent many years and millions of dollars hunting down boot these chances for russia are quite challenging victor was arrested in march two thousand and eight entirely and during a sting operation carried out by the u.s. . u.s. officials say that it was attempting to sell weapons to members of the colombian fork which would have been allegedly used to kill americans despite the fact that i ty government found him not guilty two times the u.s. still managed to extradite victor boot to the united states at the end of two thousand and ten without notifying russia without notifying victor attorney without

notifying victor boot family many argue that what the u.s. did was a violation of international law and nonetheless mr boot a russian businessman was tried here in the u.s. and found guilty sentenced to twenty five years in prison and all along victor butties attorneys and his supporters believe the cards were stacked against him because in two thousand and five many will made many may remember there was a hollywood movie. put out in theaters quarreled called lord of war and nicolas cage the after was playing a character that he said was based on victor boot and victor boot following that movie was dubbed the merchant of death so when he went into court for his trial many believe that the chances of him getting a fair trial were unlikely because many knew him or thought of him as a villain to begin with because of hollywood because of the information the u.s. government was painting about him following his sentencing earlier this year our t.

dispute exclusively with victor boot and he said that he believes he has been used as a political pawn broker or kerry for purely political good marker of shoring. up the american. government of recruiting. as far as we know it still has not been clear or indicated by any u.s. officials how they believe they have the legal right to extradite victor boot a russian citizen from thailand to the u.s. which is one of many reasons why russia saying that this is a russian citizen and is asking for him to be extradited to russia to serve out his twenty five year sentence that was delivered by a u.s. court. report they're still ahead of the on warranted spying this hearing nowhere in new york now the city's police department to explain its continued surveillance of muslims based purely on stereotype profiling. and in business

reckless bankers are often blamed for the global financial crisis but right now the world has a natural element to deal with the weather which could cause violence in the developing world if prices continue to storage i mean ten minutes. around the u.n. nuclear watchdog will resume talks on friday more than two months after the previous failed run insists it only wants peace for the energy but the west thinks a bomb is in the making folks and hire them for these negotiations either and all the while sanctions from the u.s. and europe continue to hit a radian citizens hard to split a commentator hammered resit muddy told me earlier how it's affecting his family. they are blocking any financial transactions with iran that means that the iranian pharmaceutical companies cannot buy vital medicine from major pharmaceutical companies in the world so people like my father they're not getting there they're not getting the medication it's affecting the whole family you know

it's affecting my dad because he can't get the medication that he needs if it's a pick in the family because for the past week decades we've been dealing with a man who is sick and who can't be cute because of the problems that the problems are not becoming bigger because he's become all there and do we care more vulnerable and if he can't get the medicines then. his life is in danger and in iran the problems are bigger because the sanctions the sanctions affecting normal ordinary iranians the sanctions are not affecting the government the sanctions are affecting ordinary iranians that's the message check out our website r.t. dot com for a moment there you can you can find stories you may have missed on the taste a few others as well we got online few but the religious right that germany finds wrong the country's multi culti image is strained right now after a rabbi's charge for a band procedure more about that on one that's been the news quite

a lot last couple of weeks and the masses in montreal demonstrators hope to pin down vote hunting canadian politicians in the long running feud scurrying on their own to schools the. download the official r.t. application so choose your language stream quality and enjoy your favorites from our. t.v. is not required to watch r.t. all you need is your mobile device watch r.t. any time. it's clever you should try it if you have so now after years of spying on unsuspected muslims based solely on stereotypes the new york police department never produced a lead on a terrorist suspect offices hopes the covert democratic demographics rather unit would provide a warning system against terrorism which is proving fruitless as a said let's talk more about this with alex that it's ruby news website alter net

exhaustless also written extensively about this time mr kane the n.y.p.d. has given various examples of my of why this type of surveillance is necessary do you see any situation where this kind of spying is justified though yourself. you know this. obviously. impacted muslim communities in the u.s. . and specifically in new york the n.y.p.d. has made muslim community largely law abiding innocent people that are american citizens into. a group of people that are automatically deemed suspect because of their religion and clearly this is not justified it's unconstitutional and it's wholly in violation of muslims civil rights here in the united states has put a twist to this to the n.y.p.d. divisions already operating under a new name the zone assessment begs the question is that allowed to carry out

unwarranted surveillance now into the future mother little for more aggressive tactics under this new name. well. i don't i don't think it's clear that the new name changes anything you're right in a deposition thomas galante an officer in the n.y.p.d. a high ranking officer said the name of the unit that was tasked with spying on muslims in new york and new jersey as well as on college campuses spying on muslim student organizations has been changed to a zone assessment unit. other than a name change it's unclear whether the actual spying has stopped you know it's likely that the spying continues and instead of the demographics unit doing it it's now the zone assessment unit doing it i don't think that changes anything though you know the fact is that police officers still apparently have the ability to go

undercover and you know tape and photograph people coming in and out of mosques and you know. locations of concern which are really middle eastern owned restaurants and businesses that the n.y.p.d. has frequented and conversations and also recorded those conversations so the fact is that they may have changed the name from the demographics unit to the zone assessment unit but other than that nothing else has or has really changed so far as the lawyers think. less of whatever they did violate federal guidelines dozens of members of congress will the justice department to go do you have to see the n.y.p.d. being held. well the n.y.p.d. is one of the most powerful forces one of the most powerful police forces in the united states. and the fact is that in new york they have largely gone about their business with impunity particularly about spying on muslim americans but i do want

to say that there is a movement to hold the n.y.p.d. accountable for example there was a bill introduced in the city council new york city council a couple of months ago calling for an inspector general to be implemented for you know an independent inspector general that would have oversight and the n.y.p.d. be able to make recommendations and issue reports on the n.y.p.d. actions so you know the fact is that the n.y.p.d. it's very powerful you know and they've received you know millions of dollars in federal funding they are one of the largest police forces in the country if not the largest and so they have they have spied on muslims with impunity as well as you know stopping and frisking blacks and latinos in the in the city with out with impunity and so on and so. you know a movement is you know again a movement afoot to to correct that lack of accountability for the n.y.p.d. but right now you know they're they keep on doing what they're doing unfortunately

looting is too it's pretty the program will do that through the internet. international news no in brief tonight kenya says it will disarm all rural tribes after the tragedy in one village which saw fifty two people brutally slaughtered in the we were the children were burned alive or hope to death in the huts when the village came under attack to warn the realities of long fought over land and water with this is by far the worst violence since post-election fighting flared up four years ago. up to five hundred popular websites to be censored by india's government to try and curb inciting ethnic violence the list includes personal pages on sites such as facebook twitter and you tube its after messages were posted which threatened muslims would attack citizens in some regions after the end of the holy month of ramadan but internet freedom activists is sounding the alarm predicting for in line censorship. taiwan braced for the arrival of typhoon tembin with more

than three thousand people evacuated now to safer areas tonight the military is on standby within fifty is vehicles to help in the relief effort once that storms past three years ago the island was devastated by the killed seven hundred people. and this weather we're talking about next as well in our business bulletin hi there katie could see it now we're going to talk about it all night on with the weather major threat these days to the global economy world peace if you stretch of the far enough exactly that really is the case at the moment kevin it's come to that and we really we're looking at two different scenarios because in the u.s. at the moment they're dealing with a drought the worst one in more than a century whereas russia they're dealing with flash floods but really it's having the same impact because it's damaging harvests and crops and really economic society as you said kevin we're now dealing with the possible threat of violence breaking out in the developing world really because they rely on these fees as

a staple diet so tatiana put in a cave or she's got more on this. every year my weekly food stand is growing and much faster than my salary but there are fears that these here the price of food will increase sharply and not only because of a poor crop harvest in russia but also a bad drought in the united states who are in prices have already this kind of rockets at sixty percent in the past two months but why should we care that's because most corn is used to feed livestock and that means that very soon meat and poultry could also become more expensive as well as many corn based snacks and cereals global food prices jumped six percent in july alone the biggest monthly hike in three years and may not make you eat less if you live in europe all the united states as people there have more disposable income but in the developing world where people spend up to eighty percent of their budgets on food some warrant

that spikes in the cost of basic products could even call the riots and social on the rest as we saw in a similar scenario back in two thousand and eight. and as such and i was just saying we're now looking at record highs for prices in all supermarkets but the experts are saying the worst is yet to come you could see maybe another twenty five to thirty percent to the upside the way it feels we could see it soybeans at twenty dollars we can see corn well over ten dollars it's very difficult for traders when we start to see the market breaking out and getting into a parabolic move to look for a high but you know what i could see another twenty five to thirty percent just based off of the in the opinion of the farm community here in the states and again when you couple that with what's going on around the rest of the world and here with the glencore of the world are saying then i think we have to accept that as maybe fact. moving on into the markets will see what's happening with wall street

just now and they are still firmly entrenched in negative territory the dow jones eight tenths of a percent now they're suffering and that's because speculation on whether central banks will ease monetary policy further continues on and concerns also remaining with europe as well because this friday we got the greek prime minister tony is so modest will meet with german chancellor angela merkel to perhaps come to some kind of compromise on an extension to greece's debt bills are certainly what investors are hoping for and away as you can see this has just about managed to get out for basis points so modestly in positive territory for the cars as they will be able to see how the gear is responding to all of these sentiments another facet going on today was the german finance minister he managed to dampen optimism that greece will get more time to cut its debt with comments circulating the trading floors today from him as for the russian currency i had a mixed performance and staying with russia we had strong gains on the bourses

today. it's better word occurs to we don't know what's going on but tomorrow be interesting to see how we finish up here in moscow where we finish up on a high around the world to next of so paradise is latvia and the us is the baltic state slashes taxes now for next year it cuts rates and scraps dividends tax to get global firms to set up there to encourage russian firms in particular to shift some of their cast from the current favorite which is actually cyprus and that's all the business for today kevin up about tamara see how the week ends up for the market a lovely year so flu so well as well so we'll call it a day through tomorrow evening you know just. to pull no punches on the shady deals among the banking elite because report with you shortly tonight here on out to international.
