gets overwhelming backing from fellow american nations and it's rather with britain over julian such condemning efforts to undermine the sanctity of the embassy. there is definitely new but let me sit there might be reprisals which would be charitable party spanish channel talked exclusively to work with was president about the hurdles his country may face from backing one of the world's most famous whistleblowers. and egypt's new leader extends a hand of friendship to china and iran are just your seen as the country breaking away from washington's influence. nine pm saturday night here in moscow welcome if you just joined us this is r.t.

my name's kevin owen here with the top stories for you ecuador scored in the point in its diplomatic row with britain over granting asylum to julian assange thirty four member bloc of american nations has declared solidarity and support for the country condemning the u.k.'s earlier threats to storm its embassy in london to get the whistleblower. britain the she's got the details. it was a meeting that lasted five hours but eventually ecuador got what it wanted out of the meeting essentially the foreign minister made a speech in which he condemned britain for what he called an assault on your sovereignty and eventually what happened was that these thirty four countries signed this resolution which rejects any attempts to put at risk the inviolability of diplomatic premises anywhere in the world and and expressed solidarity and support for ecuador in their offering of asylum to julian assange but also urged continued talks between ecuador and britain to try and sort out their diplomatic

problems the usa and canada are members of this organization and they were very much against this meeting from the very beginning and they also then expressed reservations about the resolution that was passed in the end but it goes to show that particularly in its own region ecuador is not acting alone and it's now got huge international backing across the americas but we've seen no movement in britain and stance so far they still remain committed to arresting julian assange to fulfilling this court order which says that he must be extradited to sweden whatever happens and in fact we've seen further proof in recent days that britain is not going to abandon its plans to arrest him we had a policeman photographed outside the ecuadorian embassy one of the many policemen who is guarding the embassy twenty four seven holding this piece of paper a piece of restricted information that says that doing that so i should be arrested essentially at all costs whatever it takes even if he emerges in some way in

a diplomatic car even if as some have posited here merges in some kind of diplomatic crate or bag that is not going to put the british police off arresting him that they're really very intent on arresting him and fulfilling this court order so that's a position that hasn't changed in the last few days and i see no reason that it will change as a as a direct result of this but as i say the international pressure is growing meanwhile julian assange has of course still in the ecuadorian embassy in london still very unclear how he will get out. well for ecuador it's not just about assad his fate in the longer is the country may still have to face harsh consequences for its chest to roughie a career exclusively shared his view on the issue with r.t. spanish channel has a preview of what's to come. normally such a decision shouldn't have any consequences that is if all countries respect international law which clearly says that the state has the right to grant asylum

how many times has sweden granted asylum but unfortunately in this particular case we see that some countries are displaying the colonial and imperial ambitions of their ethnocentricity it turns out that if ecuador grants asylum to someone else it certainly might have consequences there is definitely no plea but let's face it some leader might be reprisals which would be terrible if the u.k. for example or practice on these threats and invades our embassy to risk the sand but can you imagine how big of a precedent this would set. a nuclear talks between iran and the unit i watched or one skate had an impasse with no date set for further negotiations the islamic republic stuck with crippling sanctions and continued accusations of pursuing an atomic bomb the allegations were fueled by to rand reportedly stepping up its a radio in richmond program which it insists is peaceful from the national reigning american council told us the country had no other choice. western sanctions have

been escalating the pressure on iran has been escalating and to expect a country to sit on its hands well it's having these pressure tactics level at it is completely unrealistic so for iran when it i think when it looks at this situation it had several opportunities regarding how does it respond how does it escalate in turn and it could have taken far more provocative actions i think actually installing these centrifuges was probably the lowest grade retaliation to the western sanctions and some of the threats of war at the end of the day it's still the judgment of the united states of israel of all of the western intelligence agencies that you run has not begun to actually build a nuclear weapon they have not made that decision yet and so all this talk about war zones of immunity and so forth is completely premature and counterproductive to actually resolving this conflict. the hoping to get a look inside

a radio military base is one thing it won't find is the s. three hundred missile launches to lead we look at the air defense system once coveted by its a rat and how it's being developed now into a sophisticated weapon here in russia. and greece fails to get the reassurances it had longed for despite its charm offensive in europe winning more time to be ailing economy. opponents of egypt's president have clashed with his supporters his crowd surged in cairo and alexandria the anti-government protesters accuse president morsi and his muslim brotherhood party of overstepping their authority and undermining parliament morsi is currently trying to establish new foreign policy that seems moving away from american influence. to china next week seeking investment then it's a trip to iran because which is one of the west main solmes right now i spoke to michael hughes from the new will strategies coalition who predicts a significant be balance of power. the unspoken link here is israel you

know it's egypt can leverage this relationship and vice versa to put pressure on israel to stop you know this talk of bombing iran you know there's a connection for morsi starts looking like a geo political genius if you can pull this off if he can get israel to step back on the whole bombing iran thing better be pretty amazing they find a partner in iran and they don't have to rely. on rely on israel and they can offset counterbalance the gulf monarchies they're trying to rebalance and shift away from the west and they need the immediate cash from the west they need it from the i.m.f. and the united states and the gulf monarchies but long term they want to get in bed with china who can fill the gap so they don't have to rely on the west anymore. access to the mediterranean in some suez canal priority which the u.s. gets currently. and you know because. the net it is hard to see that

china's going to get much but those two things are pretty big they want they want port access and they want to ally align themselves with the nonaligned and align with the chips you know taken away from us is a win for china. the background analysis to egypt to transform ation to be founded oxy dot com is one of a lot more than a few as well as we do every day of course but right now the university of the wild west why colorado students can now buy guns as well as books in this school bag it's not alarming rate you can find out more about that online also the norwegian mass murderer and his brother kit heads for a decades long stay in jail for it turns out it really might not be so bad after all our cameras go inside and missiles and bloodshed not of wars of but a football match russian hooligan storm around page putting the team's future in european competitions of jeopardy.

russian energy giant gazprom has joined the club of companies literally coming under attack from greenpeace six environmental activism bush one of the firms floating oil rigs in the arctic in protest against plans to drill in the area despite warnings from platform work his activities managed to latch on to the rigs suspended themselves off for fifteen hours they claim that they were then sprayed with water from above and retreated quote to avoid risk in the freezing conditions environmental campaigner christopher williams says several nations are getting increasingly interested in a slice of the arctic and you reserves right now and that will keep greenpeace busy the oil that is said to exist below the arctic is up to twenty five percent of world reserves there are countries vying for control of optical oil those functions i think are pretty determined to start drilling the russia being the first one is now provoking protests from greenpeace shell very keen to drill and have been given allowances from the obama administration to begin exploring that process

it'll be interesting i think to find out whether greenpeace i would expect them to also be protesting just as vigorously western oil companies when they start drilling as they have been now occupying the gas from oil rig. still to come home grown products struggle to break through a strict economic barriers palestinian farmers see their crops go to waste because of israeli regulations to report ahead. and also in new york to do ask the people there i hope that all don't give two hoots about the democrats and republicans increasingly dominating the t.v. screens. next though no sign of relief for greece after its p.r. blitz in europe to try and win more time to enact a painful reforms promised to its creditors the greek prime ministers met the french president now after seeing the german chancellor a day earlier but both of the keep a masters of held back from giving greece that breathing space it says it so

urgently needs cause of the rising pressure at home with the parliament leader saying neither the time nor the content to be renegotiated asset management specialist philip roth believes no matter how hard greece tries it won't be able to pay back what it owes. greece is bankrupt i think there's no discussion about that today and it hadn't been two or three years ago even with the hardest possible work and a lot of cut and extremely austerity. greece won't be able to pay back the huge amount of their load to their shoulder there's only one way of rescue and greek gaining of competitiveness increase and this is the exit from the euro zone and politicians always argue there are enormous costs involved with the exit of greece that's perfectly right but what is the amount of costs in war with greece staying within the euro zone. britain may not be using the euro but its finances

continue to feel the pinch from the eurozone despite this new numbers show the economy actually tanked less than predicted the spark of optimism over gets the cold shower treatment from artie's now it's kaiser and stacey here with the full program coming up later today. this is what happens when the government throws money at the the oligarchs and the monopolies the oil companies and the bankers because when they stop giving them money they can pull the old atlas shrugged they'll be like. you know we're not going to work anymore we're in a gatekeeper position we're wedged into the economy if you don't give us more money we're call systemic collapse which is ridiculous because the government if they want to give away money they should give it away to the entrepreneurs they should give it away to the consumers it is a consumer economy after all why not help the consumers know that never occurred to george osborne yeah i'll do eaton oxford you know friend of cameron georgie porgie

in his bubble and fraud putting. photos labelled made in palestine are a symbol of pride for the producers however due to israel's economic blockade palestinian farmers struggle to get the goods to the rest of the world and this policy of fund things are about to change them. this tiny bottle of olive oil is at the heart of an economic battle it may be small and expensive but it's one of those products that defines where people stand in the ideological battlefield of the middle east from palestine to europe and beyond each purchase is seen as a shot in an economic war. other people are not sufficiently aware that israeli settlement products are competing with palestinian products abroad also when we tell the customer that there is a difference between settlement products and israeli products they understand we're living under occupation and they can choose what products to buy or not and more

and more consumers are choosing not to buy israeli products originating in the settlements in palestinian territories they are seen by many as the foods of the occupation the work of movement of lies within the movement by. distributors to carry been a c.m. product the problem is all in the name and it's difficult to make a product stand out from those from the israeli settlements in our products can't say made in palestine because we're under occupation and not yet a state they can say it made in the west bank or made in gaza or a palestinian product and for some companies like this palestinian pharmaceuticals company in the west bank it's even worse it can't even sell in its own backyard a lot of us love to be able just love to be distributed in israel because. it's with. but it will be rejected by the security is being restricted to the palestinian market is causing

a lot and creating economic difficulties for the farmers. everyone here grows olives and so the local market is very small in the competition big we don't get much money for either it is part of a bigger problem when the demand is there the occupation means more often than not farmers are prevented from gathering water or even getting to their land it me. more than half of palestinian crops go to waste but there is hope in a corner of the remote city of janine this private company is helping farmers overcome the troubles and get into international markets here the islands are processed pressed and stored as is an order comes through the oil is pumped up here from where it is boxed and bottled to international standards it appears demand is growing especially in the us we find that as much as our submission of the jobs and obs are excited to find anything in specialty goods in the marketplace they are calculating ok what backlash am i going to get from zionist bloggers in the

marketplace this snag is that these products sell for almost double the value because of the cost of getting them to market the hope for producers here is that this supporters around the world won't begrudge the few extra dollars for a bottle of olive oil and rather they'll see it as a gesture of support policy r t janine in the palestinian autonomy election season in the united states is entering its homestretch both republicans and democrats hold their national conventions in the coming weeks it is in new york to us what these gatherings actually complete show whether anyone will even notice. in the u.s. republicans and democrats are about to hold their conventions to kick off the presidential elections leave them so one of these conventions even do this week let's talk about that you're growing your eyes i say convention internet stuff why are you into the politics of all crooks yet but we have to choose right all crooks

what are the conventions do do you think what do they do they were so out of money that's what they do good for media purposes because they can create a lot of hype around certain condit so yes i think they do too so we really need more hype. in today's world yeah do you spend a ton of money on it just by sheer do they are an avatar as we can prize on the news and then it stops at a certain time and then from then on it's business as usual so we don't do this where you have to start to start and i think that i think you just said the key word business i think there's a lot of money on the table in american ballot there and that's a bit of a where is the case that within for the truth. if they put money into the numbers and i want something out of a donor but i think the whole political process is crazy the amount of money they spend on ads and different things it's just ridiculous and it's not truthful the ads are generally false fake and just you know don't really serve any purpose it's a lot of waste of money for the taxpayers yet who do you think is going to get dirty or romney or obama. romney who do you think is going to win. why.

because of mitt romney it doesn't appeal then like either you don't like either one or. you think he's going to end here thank you daryn he's done a good job for you guys republican so i don't republicans sure you're going to vote for romney. no choice no matter what the conventions do or don't do the bottom line is the media is going to try to make them seem really really important so grab your popcorn and the media circus it's just about to start. and if i was staying in new york for the next story update two still reeling from the deadly shooting yesterday at least nine people have been hospitalized after being wounded by police gun fire near the empire state building officers were responding to a shooting where a sacked employee killed a former coworker firing at the gunman and killing him but also to bystanders in

the process police said they had no choice but to open fire investigators those still to figure out if the government did actually pull the trigger on the offices story we're following up of course in other world news certain explosion of venezuela's biggest oil refineries killed at least twenty four people and wounded fifty others the blast also damaged nearby buildings apparently caused by a gas leak so it is claimed the situation is now under control with firefighters and a national guard on board to secure to see. the trouble just keeps coming for greece this time though it's wildfires now to put up with skirting the suburbs of the capital helicopters firefighters and volunteers have been drafted in to try to stem the blazes you've already ravaged thousands of hector's a forest searing temperatures and high winds bring wildfires to greece every year but many this summer i thought having started deliberately. to keep the country safe you need the hardware to match today's ever more sophisticated threats russia thinks he's got the answer not easy got piskun off been watching the new equipment in action. seek and destroy.

planes helicopters and even you name it the s four hundred triumph in one down almost any flying target. first the target is spotted and identified then the system starts monitoring it all following its course then the command makes the call to either eliminate the target or not after getting the green light the system opens fire one of the strong suits of the system is a small billet it can literally greet air defense anywhere on the ground within minutes of the preparation takes now more than five minutes and everything's done by three people one officer and two conscripting soldiers. this is still can shoot down an object as small as a soccer ball even if they're flying at supersonic speeds ejaz one hundred system consist of several elements one radar which monitors the skies looking for targets

a second one which follows specific targets of command and the larger itself or the gun as it's called here in the army combines the elements of the system can follow up to three hundred targets flying from as low or just a few feet above the ground and up to nearly fourteen miles high in the skies were just pretty much around six times higher than the average passenger jet. the first as four hundred systems are already risen along with the older ass three hundred and bonser s. protect the skies over moscow st petersburg and the central industrial region of russia it is planned that the ass four hundred will completely replace the s three hundred its production has already been and it is the least yes three hundred is capable of intercepting targets not higher than thirty kilometers which isn't enough since we're only covering a small area but when the altitude capacity is raised we can protect a larger territory analysts say the recent conflict of shown how vital it is to have reliable defense not only from threats from the skies but from space also and

this is what the s four hundred was designed to do it can locate dying it's nearly six hundred kilometers away and has a firing range of up to four hundred kilometers that's around five times more than . it's a western analog the patriot there are no plans for exploring it just yet given russia a chance for an unprecedented advantage against any threat from the skies for at least the next twenty years you go to school of our deep southern russia thanks for being with us tonight over his stay with r.t. to shortly we find out more about how greece could possibly get out of his death bed capital account that's where the shortly here are today from moscow.
