the wednesday as well as on friday saturday and sunday now we also know that the clashes that the team used in indonesia and other places across the muslim world and it remains to be seen how long they will continue before calming down you see come from the reporting in beirut r t. across the atlantic there is one big question occupying hearts and minds why is there so much hatred of the u.s. while the white house believes the movie was the only reason behind the violence the problems revealed by the anti-american rallies remain on the result or design it should count reports. the white house keeps saying it was just the anti islamic video that calls the muslims wrath across the world this is not a case of. protest or wrecked it if united states writ large or a u.s. policy this is in response to a video that is offensive but that's a claim no one is buying but if you think it's stupid film that nobody's seen

12:18 am
investigating servers which connect to computers infected by this spyware program very similar to the one which attacked iran back in two thousand and ten and they reveal traces of totally new and still clearly unknown programs which are the same time very active especially the one called me and s.p.d. and they say what's very interesting about it is that unlike traditional y. where which infects the thousands or even tens of thousands of computers a vis particular program has in fact only a few dozen all in the middle east in countries like iran saudi arabia and palestine and they say that it's very aware that these computers have the most interesting information on them and this software is none other than cyber weapons if you will these viruses are used not to pilfer money as cyber criminals usually do but rather to bill for information pursue some national interests and what
12:19 am
basically difficult for the specialists to identify these programs is first of all they're very sophisticated and second of all the control servers that we move around and the geography is really impressive i must say since it's europe the middle east and asia they do see they have an idea of which western state on the other side of the atlantic could be behind it but they say until they are one hundred percent sure they won't disclose the name of the country. reporting now the latest developments are also covered on our juice news program which is back on air and only available at our web site much more. used. to.

that in mind is probably no surprise that right now will listen at a rally in the asian markets before that they were looking slightly. to the patient but right now we've got to tell you they are indeed. the nikkei that. average two and a host said as well as that we've also got stocks as well. nine ten. of of stand up but some losses though for energy stocks there are way down the asian market still so as is the last twenty minutes or so the meeting minutes of come out and it's resulted in as you can see on your scrape will look in at a rally right now to check out the wall street clothes will be able to see that little chair used on cheese day that was with investors ready pausing all of to pushing stock sharply higher it was built to last week's commitment by the federal was out as i was saying to implement measures to really sure up the u.s.
12:25 am
a call to raise as it makes me well is have a look at the year is the one that is doing just because it's reasonably throughout now i hate to say this is indeed back in the spotlight and that's despite a decent action by the revealed almost ten year government bond is now hovering around six percent that means that boring costs are indeed still high remains a concern but we're expecting that to be a tough week on the agenda today because the russian ruble as well she's a session she finished. her is that brings them to the equities and it will be over see what the close was now today to say session did indeed finish in the red now in the markets. by less than two hours time the russian market so will be able to see that it was losses for the l.c.s. around two and two tests moves that out of the mine is that it's rather said in negative territory there's the oil prices and we'll be able to see what's happening
12:26 am
there because it's such a huge impact here in russia as you can see they are indeed getting now site concern is that the who lie is now on the rise now that's according to the american petroleum institute this saying this is now two point four million more barrels in the wall but the official figures will come out tomorrow from the energy department they'll release that invent three fourths of certainly us. that crisis now the rumble between russia's gas problem on the european commission continue and a g commissioner says he hopes for a quick halmos resolution the audience dimitri medvedev he told to constantine samael from russia's national energy security fund and he was saying that there is no winners in a conflict where both partners are vital to one another. now pro must find an answer there is only one answer to european commission to change our energy
12:27 am
policy and science serious conflicts with china and other asian consumers is a ready to do that i don't think it is china is ready to do it the question of course is price that is why i said that there will be fools us of course it's a problem for russia it will be impossible to fly and the same comfortable consumer is you chinese not going to pay the same amount of money as you can when it comes to china i think china right now is standing on a very comfortable position where it's signed a memorandum of understanding with russia well it's actually doing business with other nations in central asia so russia is not a big priority for china their main question is what will be the consumption of gas in china for example eighty years later because now they're a little forecast but the main question are they real or not because we see that and sanction obviously chen is drawing very very fast it's that's a different story than you would have so that is why the gas from central asia from belize you from australia is good good ideas but it will be not enough that is
12:28 am
where change is right away our guess the question is amount and price of course can gas from afford to provide discounts for you. already do it for example this yeah i've got strong will return for being able do this to european consumers a lot of european companies. they do discounts several times for example with their own company any good times good spot. give give a discount to this company so that is what we see that. gets promo is already flexible in this questions but for european companies on the left as well that more more more more sort of the question of greed. i used a grazing gas marina some things never change i'll be back about fifty five minutes or a heavy thanks very much indeed and looking forward to more business news next hour right now though i'll bring you have lines very shortly.
