military are reportedly carrying out on syria tons against syria despite calls from damascus not to bali. tarrytown asian strike on the volatile state after shells were fired from syria leaving behind civilians dead. the f.b.i. has charged eleven people financing at secret agents from moscow allegedly selling millions was a restricted technology to the russian military. and the e.u. pounced on the plans of its own budget expires on the stairs you press the states while it was hit greece an increased number of families can't even afford to raise that.

this is also you coming to you live from moscow hello and welcome to the program and we start with breaking news this hour turkey's military is reportedly continuing its bombardment of syria. strike in response to the shelling of a took at turkish border town which killed five several syrians were also reported dead as a result of the unprecedented all see the exchange on his policy as a story. turkish forces launched artillery attacks against syrian targets there's a follows a mortar bomb from syria that landed in a south east turkish village earlier in the day now it landed in a residential building killing five members of the same family and wounding another nine the turkish prime minister has said that the turkish response is in line with the rules of engagement now for some time we have seen an escalation of tensions

between turkey and syria certainly what we're witnessing now is just an intensification of this at the same time what we are hearing from turkish leadership that they will not allow what is a perceived attack on their territory to go to nato member states have been eaten in brussels where they've issued a statement saying that they stand by their member state turkey they are demanding an immediate end to what they have turned aggressive acts against turkey and in the same statement they have called on syria to end flagrant violations of international law now that is a quote serious for its side has issued its condolences to the families of those who were killed by this mortar bomb that was fired from syrian territory at the same time what we are hearing from these syrians is that they have opened an investigation but no details yet in terms of what that investigation has yielded what we do know though is that the syrians in the statement emphasized that they do

respect the sovereignty of neighbors and they have urged governments and i'm quoting again to act wisely and rationally it is important to note that this nato meeting in brussels did not happen under article five now that is an article that would require member states to act immediately instead it is happening under a much more toned level under article four and according to that article the country that has called for the meeting in this case turkey indicates that it does believe that its territorial integrity could be threatened the. it certainly is not saying that it is under attack there is concern though that taking in calling for this nato meeting might use this latest incident as an excuse to further put weight on its call for a no fly zone turkey for quite some time has been calling for a no fly zone to be implemented in syria and of course it's going concern that the no fly zone well ultimately need to foreign intervention. with syria still looks in

a civil war the government says it's investigating the origins of the dead laptop on the village but some experts in turkey think things and plays into the hands of some regional figures who are eager to see unquote drawn into conflict with syria. we only know that the mortars been fired across the border and we don't know what those fired deliberately or accidentally we don't even know who fired it there's been no proof that it was the syrian army that charter it could be a provocation i mean no really no there's been a steady increase intentional on that border for a long long period of time and. people have taken positions on the situation and there are very very many unstable governments which are anxious for turkey to kind of take this kind of action and qatar is one saudi arabia is another so they will be weighing up the costs and the benefits tomorrow to turkey. kind of policy on syria is not popular in this country there's growing domestic opposition to the government's line on syria so i think that if the for the government to kind of

kind of succumb to the temptation perhaps and. kind of take part in some kind of operation across the border to create enough laws would be popular inside. exchange of fire on the turkish syrian border comes in the wake of a spate of terror attacks ripping through the conflict one country's largest city around forty people have been reportedly killed and many more injured after a series of car bomb explosions in central that takes place take place in a government controlled area and apparently targeted a nearby military and buildings and al qaeda links rebel group has claimed responsibility for that which will become increasingly frequent across syria and also the mannish to discuss the ongoing situation with iraqi prime minister nuri al maliki and his says an overwhelming approval of the rebels by some international players instigate small violence and hampers peace efforts.

dialogue will definitely take places we're concerned about the syrian problem first of all the split in syria affects us the ongoing situation has repercussions on iraq we will discuss these issues with russia in order to decide what we have to do to make the existing initiatives that is the first arab league resolution on the guidelines of the geneva conference which go to prove that a military approach is in a political and arms supplies to the government forces as well as the opposition should be cut off we wanted to work unlike those perverted decisions approved during the foreign ministers meeting unfortunately a number of countries have been taken in these recommendations and keep supplying syria with weapons which worsens the situation. and there's more on the aftershocks the syrian civil war is sending to iraq and elsewhere as r.t. dot com for you and there you can also find analysis and firsthand reports from syria and its neighbors states and share your views on the turmoil. just reminded

take his military has reportedly we need is bombardment of syria after. strike in response to the shelling of a turkish border town which killed five and all will bring you more dates as i get them. u.s. authorities have accused a group of employees of an electronics company of secretly working for moscow headed by us a saab born businessman has allegedly funneled fifteen million dollars worth of cutting edge military hardware out of the country to russia also he's merino partner brings us the details from new york. according to the u.s. justice department alexander. they say was operating a spy network that was based in houston and that according to u.s. officials enhanced the capabilities of the russian military now for shango and ten others were charged with falsifying documents and illegally exporting high tech u.s. made micro electronics to russian military and intelligence agencies according to

the f.b.i. since two thousand and eight they say that was allegedly using his company are collect tronics to secretly export goods such as analog to digital converters static random access memory chips microcontrollers and microprocessors now the reason this is all so important is because u.s. officials say that that type of equipment is subject to strict u.s. government controls due to their potential use in a wide range of military systems u.s. officials say that russia does not even produce many of those who would say that they say for schenkel was sending russia does not produce that domestically and now again we need to underscore here that what the u.s. justice department is saying is that these goods were being exported without notifying the u.s. government or the department of commerce that of course this isn't the first time we've we've heard about these these so-called firings russian spy rings being

broken up by the f.b.i. or the u.s. department of justice back in two thousand and ten and chapman was one of ten. russian spies that the u.s. says were working in the states to try to gather intelligence and send it back to moscow. and lou a douglas mcnabb explains that that is the department of justice presented. they did prepare very detailed letter the letter of which i wish may it's odd eleven page document a letter that says that but the u.s. government has overwhelming evidence with regard to the defendants but the defendants are facing up to twenty years on each celt each allegation that there are twenty five allegations but so this is serious the letter was signed by two department of justice a trial attorneys who are in the kelter espionage section of the department of

justice the united states government also secured c the secret. foreign intelligence surveillance tape recording the wire intercept it for them to have gotten five so warrants they had to go on to a special court fifes a court you know order to secure the fortune teller transfer wire and secular stamps. and this latest lies scandal between america and russia came at a very opportune time the eve of the finest if you ask presidential election debate and this came off today with both me troll me and bronco bamma talking each other's policy proposals to finding that out of all the debates in a few minutes. i british court has delayed its verdict on whether juvenile songes supporters will be allowed to keep more than two hundred thousand dollars they put up as bail for the whistleblower the money has been in jeopardy absent a song which was granted political asylum in ecuador. things here with the latest.

supposed to be decision day for that group of julian assange supporters they preserve one hundred forty thousand pounds as a surety when he was bailed back in december two thousand and ten but the judge said that it would be another couple of days before a decision was reached as to whether or not they get that money back now of course is an incredibly complex case in fact there were two groups that put up money back when julian assange and his extradition case was going on one group provided the up from bail money and previously we've discovered that they lost that money that was the two hundred thousand pounds as it has been in gold in this new green nine people they put up the money at the time as a sort of guarantee the jihadists on who would comply with the conditions that the court has said julian assange is fighting extradition to sweden where he's wanted for sexual assault allegations questioning if the sexual assault allegations.

process here in the bay fails and we then saw it in a very dramatic twist julian assange claiming asylum seeking asylum from ecuador and he was he was granted that but the u.k. have refused so far to grown him safe passage of the top players are also putting a huge bill to keep julian assange this case an impasse continuing eleven thousand pounds daily police protection surrounding that embassy safe you know it's raising he's questions about that course and everyone very very much wants a diplomatic headache to come to an end. and there's also big money talks in brussels which have sparked a surge of anger at britain and europe new power plants to reinforce its funding dish now believes you reduce its exports a key states ravaged by prices of this of this would just be.

download free broadcast morning video for your media projects free media oh god r t dot com. this is all c. welcome back the first of three tons of guys do you ask presidential election debates is not that with barack obama and me trying need to laboring as some want to show before hundreds of millions of euros seems tunku to a jobs taxes and health care close to the hearts of americans caught in stagnant economy times but as i. discovered performance and content left much to be designed . the debate focused on domestic issues mainly the economy there was a lot of back and forth about was going to be painful what and how they both gave different numbers citing different studies at some point it got kind of confusing but in general it looked as if one would say he wants to raise taxes and the other

one would go no he wants to raise taxes or we need regulation and the other one would say i agree with the devil is in the details of course but if they try to give the tales and nowhere is it got even more confusing for now in most states president obama is leading in polls although by a small margin they are pretty much neck to neck in most polls but it's important to mention essentially to our non american audience that in the us a candidate might can win the majority of the popular vote and still lose the election because it's not the popular vote it's the so-called electoral college that's the size the outcome of the presidential election here every state gives a candidate a certain number of points and the winner has to collect this magic number of two hundred seventy points so even if we candidate loses a state by say justice if we. get this zero point so that we have a very peculiar electoral system which is not really above the will of the majority so not only are the americans stuck with just two choices because it's essentially

a tool horse race system by hand also they are not hearing he's to get the president that the majority of american voters have cast their votes for it one more thing almost half of americans it turns out identify themselves as bush independents one of the poll says forty percent supporting a candidate is the fact is that there are other candidates in this presidential election but they've been there before you can declare that out of the nature of the debate so very few know anything about them they're not even on ballots in all the states because if one states have different requirements and essentially designs to bid you're a cool horse race and kevin zeese directs how they come home america group says that on foreign policy and the military there's almost. no distinction between the candidates they're not very different at all you know president obama the drone commander in chief uses these kill war we water owns and we could ever imagine george bush or the star wars in a country like libya where there was no u.n.

mandate. goes on. and romney would do the same thing is there both nothing on the table as far as attacking iran. russia is obama's and obama's also in circle china has also increased the military presence the united states and. all these north they're both of rest of the support of the us military empire and i don't say you know one of them are coming back the military going one of. the u. budget committees he's expected to vote through a near ten billion euro increase in brussels funding for next year the proposal coming in they'd rage against the eurozone has caused widespread outcry across the union and while the west had countries greece international lenders are now struggling to negotiate a fresh package and despite the financial strain big government is still planning to build a multi-billion formula one racing track and that's going to devise

a patrick young says the timing couldn't be what. you know the troika these people who come along and demand cuts they've been coming for the last several years every time they go away they think they've got a deal of the greek side people to stick to it so this time around everybody's finally got to the point where they realize well they might make a deal they might not make it do it but actually we've got all these facts coming along ridiculous pieces of information grown priest circuits being built. with money the truth is the greek government is just control is the ultimate vodka object in a pool of vodka. and one racing is far from the concerns of most ordinary greeks two years of cuts and taxes have drastically increased the number of families who can't even afford to raise their children. reports on a charity trying to shield young people from the crisis. too young to understand why but on the front line of the debt crisis rampant unemployment in greece and the

slashing of social benefits has left their parents with money to provide even their most basic of needs what may seem unthinkable has happened these children are being taken into care. for during the past two years we have seen a large rise in the number of children coming to us because their families can't support them because taxes and prices have risen things like food clothing schooling and housing have become too expensive before the financial crisis this children's village which is run by the organization s.o.'s children usually looked after kids who'd been the victims of abuse now they say almost all new cases are as a result of the debt crisis this center privately funded through donations is also feeling the pinch. we've seen a significant drop off in donations people give what they can but that is getting

less and less also we are taxed on what we receive making it more of a burden to buy things we need like fuel for heating. the charity says there's been a seventy percent increase in requests for help this children's village is home to forty youngsters near to thessaloniki and is operating at close to maximum capacity i met one mother who asked not to be identified because of the stigma attached she says she was forced to give up her young daughter after losing her job she it was a norfolk decision to have to make but what could i do there was no money and no work. i asked her if she thought they would be reunited as a family you know things are going from bad to worse you could be ten years before greece is back feet children makes a point of trying to keep youngsters in contact with their biological parents for this family that means one emotional meeting once

a month organizations like this one of becoming increasingly important to help protect a generation of children from their families due to greece's financial failings. with the greek government facing having to make fresh cuts of over ten billion euros the children's village expects to be receiving more pleas for help in the future for this mother and daughter the help they get allows them to appreciate the fleeting moments they can spend together. greece. and time now for a business of days marina's their good morning how are things shaping up to the for the russian markets marina good morning your level as they say so far so good will cynically turn around at least for the russian markets and went from losses to moderate gains as you're about to see on the screen the idea as is getting about a quarter of a percent similarly with my sex that's mainly due to the fact that oil prices have

now bounced back from their two month low which is what we saw in the previous session but will need a little bit more time to understand how that they will develop some more of that next hour and asia we're seeing export as providing support for japanese stock markets and then of course banks in australia if not more and take a look at currencies the euro is strengthening against the dollar the ruble is our strength against the currency basket but the spot of that we are not seeing the stimulus measures needed to support the ruble from major economies and we spoke about this issue to central banks from this is what he had to say. some more go for the food soon or you don't support the friends and soon the lodging the insistence of the once. you know for us the way of all the fruits of the markets or the some of those who have seen news coverage by the for the rest of the overall very much for example of what it was the president on the trip to look on one

person soon to be up to him for four years and says it will balance it out open for all borders to. at all have a euro for you next hour you are right thanks for that marina coming up also he talks to rob it skidelsky economic historian award winning also and professor thirty of us dollars hand how human nature should be factored into the government's economic policy. well look. it's technology innovation all the developments

around russia we've got the huge earth covered. overcoming a barrier like you see. what you call something. when you reach the peak. you know do whatever it takes to get all the talk of the world on our t.v.

my parents really truly honestly believe that what had happened was as a result of my father's exposure to agent orange i was born with multiple problems . i was missing my leg and my fingers a and my big toe on my right foot i use my hands a lot in my artwork i find myself drawing my hands quite a bit to me for my hands you know just as if anyone would. but they do tell a story they tell a story of. oxen. today

i'm talking to you what is robert skidelsky he's a professor of political economy and also the biography of john maynard keynes

widely considered to be the most influential economist of the twentieth century we'll be talking about what keynes could bring to today's economic crisis let's get out the first would you explain to me in layman's terms what the government is doing to mend the economy and why you think it's not working well i don't think they're doing very much to mend the economy i think they had their policies are made things worse. the sad fact is that the british economy. has been shrinking slowly almost for a year now rather like a very slowly leaking balloon and the government of been trying in one or two small ways to give it a bit of a stimulus but i think they're quite new initiatives and it's too early to say how much effect they'll have but in general i don't think they will have very much effect and so i don't think.
