breaking economic barriers and a free trade zone in asia pacific dominating discussions of the apec summit in russia with vladimir putin weighing in. the u.s. has its presence on the border with syria with more spies reportedly training and organizing rebel militias and in the meantime france says it could send heavy artillery to help opposition troops. plus barack obama formally becomes the democrats' presidential candidate with promises of change but his opponents say he's failed to deliver on his original pledges from four years ago.

to five pm on friday here in moscow i'm a real risk. welcome to the program they ship pacific economic cooperation summit is living up to its title in of light of all stock the emphasis is on working closely to ride out economic problems and ensuring greater energy security a lot of us president of the host country has been talking about how he sees it all about working especially with the rising influence of russia and china's partnership reporting from of lot of our stock with more result seems to be true. it started by praising the role of apac as both an organization which accounts for no less than fifty percent of the world's trade g.d.p. and of course investment but also as a organization as a forum which provides the grounds to discuss ideas on how to shape global economic

growth its regional integration with you and me driving economic growth forward and of course the fact that apec is such an important organization demands a common responsibility for all the actions that they have taking in order to avoid basically european scenarios now a huge role of course of devoted to limiting protectionism within this region and also russia has a specific role within a pack of course it needs to use its a vast resources including oil and gas in order to provide energy security within the region and also its vast territories including that of its customs union with kazakhstan and belarus to build a bridge basically between asia and europe but also the team of troops and kind of back to all of his thoughts about the importance of this shift towards asia for russia in an exclusive interview that he gave to several days ago one of the main

issues of course the importance of trade with china which has become one of the most important partners for russia with trade expected to exceed one hundred billion dollars through out the end of this year let's listen to what it was actually had to say during that exclusive interview with r.t. china's taking up this new leading row i know tony in russia but also in the always of the whole world what makes this rather special however is that russia and china are neighbors and you know social relations took thousands of years to evolve to where they are. over the coming years we are bound to achieve. a one hundred million dollar turnover rate and of course is not only china in that region which is playing an increasing role russia has also announced that it is in negotiations with new zealand and vietnam to create a free trade zone and also voted for putin said that tens of other nations have

filed applications to have these kind of negotiations with russia the us presidential race is in the spotlight everybody's talking about it here and what about putin has said that he is ready to work with either candidate mitt romney who gets elected barack obama gets reelected even though mitt romney indeed has said that russia is america's geo political enemy number one. also said that barack obama is a person he sees which is ready to do a lot for mutual cooperation between russia and the united states but that depends on how much he is allowed my feeling is that he is a sin see a man and that he sincerely wants to implement positive change but can he do it will they let him do it. i mean there is also the military lobby and the department of state which is quite conservative it cute as for mr romney's position we understand that this is to a certain extent motivated by election campaign rhetoric but i also think that he

was already asleep or wrong because such behavior in the international arena is the same as using nationalism and segregation as a tools of us domestic policy and you can catch the full version of this exclusive interview that he gave to see on you tube channel. has to be treated like a reporting right there from a lot of austar economics professor. says creating an asia pacific free trade zone would help russia and china contain the overwhelming influence of the united states . the benefit would be the member who. put it created on what you are and the people made up of. the people. of the indian that you think. china will benefit from it because china is trying to speak and i put it by the. way they could be laughing or landing on you the united they get pinned in roughly

the important thing in what can kill boston or time or anything year doing if i need to fight the country all i'm getting increasing my flight and the rest of the world. tiring lost it would help to conquer the power of the united states because every moment the united states. what i did time and all rock that the walk with them and what you call these so that you could see why they're important of timing they have to walk but the clothes that had been given the few. well arty's business keeping us up to date with the apec wheeling and dealing ongoing in the last. global business heavyweights focus on the internet that crisis the euro and in france for instance in the asia pacific region well get all the details about what is happening emphasis varies in business later this hour. are you watching r.t. live from moscow syrian television reporting that a bomb has exploded outside

a mosque in the north of the capital damascus killing at least five of the news comes amid reports that spies from the u.s. are increasing their presence on the syria turkey border to advise and assist the anti assad forces in the fight the americans have so far resisted calls to engage in militarily limiting their supplies to the opposition mainly to communications equipment meanwhile french people about have admitted paris is considering supplying heavy artillery to the syrian rebels in order to help them build a provisional government and britain says it's only sending non-lethal aid like medicine and generators to antigovernment fighters but as artie's smith reports some in the u.k. are craving for real combat. to most britons going about their everyday lives the war in syria seems worlds away but for a few it's a struggle they feel personally involved in as the u.k. government put trey's president assad as an evil dictator there's evidence that

britons are going to syria to fight for the opposition but area m.p. khalid mahmood says some in his community have already gone there is particular individual who's actually gone back to baghdad at the moment and is going back in a few weeks time who's been engaged in fundraising supporting people and putting people together to go back to get people who say they. support the made work and. saying that they're going to support a resistant. some says mahmood of british syrian extraction others a british muslims who feel their faith makes this their struggle but whatever their reasons for going the fear is what they'll be when they return they're trained in the art of warfare but also radicalized as well and then they want to then continue that reddit causation they want to bring more people on board and then perhaps to

try to. resolve some of the gripes they have that's blowback the u.k. has already seen from another conflict here in london on the seventh of july two thousand and five the official report into the seven seventh's bombings reveals this to rebut that two out of the four bombers had been to afghanistan for so-called violent jihad back in the u.k. one hundred fifty cars and says that tanweer together killed fourteen people in combined suicide attacks the seven seven bombers were only vaguely known to the authorities and that could be the case for fighters returning from syria too it's all very well to notify the u.k. borders agency but in reality there's very little they can do people that may move here to fight in syria will not go directly to syria they may stop in turkey or levon on iraq so the government will not be able to really know the.

nation there's no real way of telling whether they're actually going to end up in syria there is no way to know. who won and who they'll be liaising with. their ideology is necessarily how the ologies and viewpoints point change in syria these are the scenes that could greet them on their return and he islamist organization the english defense league is unlikely to take further radicalization of british muslims lying down creating more bad feeling and deeper fissures in an already divided society full west. in who's british freedom party is allied to the e.t.l. says militant groups are preparing for a confrontation we're going to get further and further into this horrible situation of them and us and them unless and then you have small scale violence that starts and it's the tit for tat and that's why. you know i think we're literally entering into a religious civil war. in britain so far the government's given the syrian opposition

eight million dollars for non-lethal equipment including communications but ordinary britons could find themselves paying the far higher price of unrest and insecurity at home for the support for the syrian opposition laura smith r.t. london. and still to come for you and. convenient hostilities in just a couple of minutes here on our team a report on the israeli settlers are using iran as an excuse to occupy palestinian the. wealthy british scientists on it's time to. market. scandal find out what's really happening to the global economy

with mike's concert for a no holds barred look at the global financial headlines tune in to the report. i had a family i lived in a fairly nice community wasn't rich it was an upscale it was just like you know archie bunker society ok then they started showing up here what happened was my company decided i could get cheap labor and they got rid of us. through these are. the rules of the eaglets line legally we have to get up every morning we have to go to work and you know we have to pay our bills and we have to do it and that's just the american dream and if you want the american dream you have to go by the last i figure it's here's one of the major trails in the united states. i watch and they run run down my property and something about this noise. bothers a little mean that cockroaches from coming over the wire is protecting the country

party's national convention the us president urged voters to help him carry on the changes he began nearly four years ago obama said the decisions ahead for washington will affect the lives of americans for decades he also hit back at his opponent mitt romney dubbing the republican a foreign policy rookie for naming russia america's number one enemy romney responded by accusing obama of offering no new policies and leaving old promises on the two candidates tied in the polls will now campaign ahead of the november of one analyst told r.t. that neither offers any wheelchair. the romney i think is a great example of what's wrong with america that he's obviously a he's highly his taxes for the american people is was no the truth about his plans is he sending money or sure he created he became wealthy by destroying u.s. businesses and create jobs overseas and he's exactly what's wrong with this country

on the economic side and he's a one percenter and he's the one percenter deep in his heart so he's really what's wrong with president obama the same time you know he's supported by wall street he supported by the health insurance is really put in place policies that supported corporate agenda so neither of these kids really represent the people they resent the big business moneyed interests. in other people's interests we know the only. electoral system the country faces very severe problems with the economy with money being funneled to how the wealthiest americans have the same world as the bottom of the whole country one hundred sixty million americans. who are in polls he's done in. either romney or obama will confront these issues and there you will you know he was going on about the big banks you were hearing is gershon about amending only in u.s. military budget into the world up there we go here on r t will start with attacks in iraq three separate of them on shiite mosques have left at least four people

or reports i was the call to prayer religious jews walk past a mosque in judaism's second holiest city the scene speaks volumes about the gap between two peoples living cheek by jowl forty five years ago part of hebron the largest city in the west bank was returned to jewish control since then around six hundred jewish families have lived in the small enclave outnumbered vastly by palestinians they vow they will never be driven out despite the fact that jewish settlement in hebron is widely considered illegal and international law and so they justify their presence in part by looking for an enemy the fact that. there is a distinct target to get the jews out of her own is not a and and in and of itself it's a means to an end that being that they don't want to use in her own they don't want to is in jerusalem but even more than that they don't want to sing tel aviv or

haifa or anywhere else and instead of pointing fingers of palestinians the settler movement has begun championing the claims of the reigning president mahmoud ahmadinejad he stokes fear and uncertainty in the hearts of most israelis is there a through a lot of all of them in the future this is not exist and the don't. remain this state or and over again but the hostile talk from tehran is having unintended consequences the city of movement is mocking ahmadinejad's comments inadvertently putting him in the camp when israel's most widely circulated daily newspaper recently listed the safest cities to live in a time of emergency most israelis didn't notice that listed among the so-called cities of refuge with civil settlement alongside residential centers within israel proper. is doing for the settlers what they've been struggling to do alone and that is give them legitimacy by terrifying ordinary israelis so they forget to

distinguish between israel proper and the settlements but a growing chorus of empty settlement protestors is calling on the government to cool down and stop buying into the politics of fear it's obvious that the government is talking about iran as a diversion they version from the no peace with the palestinians with. what's going on with the settlements with the amount of money that they're spreading on the settlements nonetheless the settler movement is moving full steam ahead behind me is palestinian have run permission to drive through this boom comes from the israeli army that sits here just outside palestinian have run inside. jewish have run this is the perfect example of how israeli settlements and palestinian villages and cities exist on top of each other and for as long as the settlers can play on israeli fear and convince israelis that muslims want to kill them wherever they are they'll continue building their settlements and ordinary israelis will remain

focused on the freight outside their borders rather than look at what is happening in the own backyard. r.t. hebron. tensions between iran and israel also the main subject of today's if you are coming away just a bit later this hour we spoke to the former head of the israeli ministry of defense of other likelihood of a conflict erupting as a preview. i know that israel. would think a lot of money missile defense in trying to defend our population from aggression from outside i mean iran having nuclear capability and delivery capability to the state of israel would be the position with the proper regime and. to believe that they could destroy israel by few we have mr. and this would be their believe they are who could use it therefore we must be

sure that nothing like that can be can happen. our let's check in with our business team once again there's marina good to see you you and your colleagues certainly following the apec summit ongoing of lot of astarte but also you having a look at the market action as well it's been a good day so far i know or it's very rare by the asset is happening even oil prices are going up everyone's pretty much happy and all of that is because we got positive comments from the european central bank ali gets that in a second but europe was also mainly one of the main focuses at the apec summit and we caught up with basically business artsy caught up with metals magnate alleged that it and we asked him what he thinks should be done to save the euro and this is what he had to say. among true jumps to the table should be your wish you were to have it in completely. the real

balance of trade to real. credit in this. race. so that. on the level you want to project to do so you could. create an opportunity to see true solution for the greatest now let's take a look at some international markets we'll start with the europe as i mentioned earlier everyone is very optimistic and that's after the european central bank unveiled its bond buying program and why and of course mario drawing the president of the e.c.b. is that it's all about tackling the escalating ball right cos often that are countries in the region we can see there that the footsie is out in just over a quarter of a percent and when it comes to the german dax it's now over half a percent and that's why now one of the things that mario draghi also monti was the euro itself it's like a look at what's happening with the current solicitor that you still is promising and pledge and secure figure and tax right now the euro is still gaining against

the u.s. dollar when it comes to the ruble and next picture this hour we see that the ruble is again against the u.s. dollar and news into the euro now mention the ruble so let's take a look at the russian markets thanks sue oil prices are going up which will see in the men that the russian market has done particularly well we can see the artsy asked over at super science and applied something that we're not used to seeing these days and when it comes to my sex it's now approaching one and a half percent in the black also of course rough investors are digesting everything the strong performance that we saw on wall street overnight also with the asian markets and of course a europe ok if we move on and take a look at the oil prices that i've been mentioning they're going to hire who's that lights with this predator on monday six dollars per barrel when the. mr bradlaugh has had a hundred and wordsmith all of this of course inspirations for the most investors here and of course it's happening at the asia pacific economic cooperation summit

and blood of all second will have more on that for the next hour of course because i think they're about five hours ahead so it's about what. i actually believe it's nine hours war if i'm not mistaken the you know i think so i should know my aunt lives there that's really bad. is it is it a friday today or is it a friday. back to the headlines in just a moment see you shortly.
