has admitted that the aid which they have been sending towards the syrian rebels actually does not end up in the hands of the groups which they were hoping it would end up in quite on the contrary the united states officials are now saying that in fact the money that they keep sending over which then goes towards the purchasing of arms end up in the hands of the islamist extremist groups the arms are being purchased by qatar and saudi arabia which have a tendency to prefer the radical movements such is the cell if these who then end up with these top notch extremely expensive weapons which they then use against the troops of president bashar al said even groups the secular opposition groups within syria itself are saying that they simply cannot afford to buy the same type of arms which are being used by the radicals neither do they can they afford the cameras which are being used by these radical groups such as the free syrian army who are

then using it to broadcast their accomplishments or failures on you tube and the like of course the united states administration at this point is concerned that the arms are ending up in the hands of the extremist groups because they fear of death in the future these groups will turn into insurgencies which then will retaliate against the united states of course there are also other diplomats within the middle eastern circuits who are saying that at this point a lot of people are being frustrated with the syrian opposition who have proven that they unfortunately cannot unite over one plan according to the same name diplomats who has been cited by various media sources they have come to come to the conclusion that the syrian opposition is essentially a large conglomeration of smaller groups who spend their time bickering and cannot come to any one agreement and this very fact that there is no agreement or there is no clear cut plan which is also worrying to the united states now u.s.

officials are saying that it's because there are. no plan as to what's going to happen in the future they fear that if president bashar assad is alstead that will mean that in the turmoil which follows there will be a civil war in which the radical islamist groups that will be much better armed and will be a lot better financed than the secular groups and that will just mean they play out of the libyan scenario all over again. the u.s. is back turkey's move to inspect syria bound jets with one cross saying it will intercept all such flights to he's already grounded two planes and search its cargo for possible military equipment manual fighter he's editor in chief of a german news magazine he's told us that anchor is flexing its muscles because it's already involved in a proxy war with damascus. why should you put two hundred more tanks towards the syrian border why it should turn a key big fortresses why should they discuss how it will now and. again the

the pizza meal french culture pride and prestige but some say the country's national identity is now threatened by foreigners hunting for vineyards all across the country this shot though we've just had to have the vineyards in french burgundy original home to one of the world's famous wines made the headlines after it was purchased by china's entrepreneur former owners forced by financial troubles were forced to sell it and the merchant made an offer for twice the market price and that has worried some in the hysteria that followed the front national france's far right party slender deal as emblematic of the danger threatening french heritage with much bigger chateaus already owned by japanese and russians just next door such a reaction to this particular sale could be taken as an eco or the so-called bear you join or yellow peril in the sixty's that paranoia of asian world dominance political economic and demographic that seems to be making this comeback these days

but there is no smoke without fire michelle the oh no thirty have thirds of shattered only grapes producing two hundred fifty thousand of bottles p. year says the reason problem but it's not that foreigners buy french family vineyards but that the owners have to sell them or with the courts taxes are very high and the hardest thing is to cover inheritance tax or many so part of their forms to overcome that and it's progressive every next generation has to pay more for those too michelle will likely sacrifice one head to toe tooth but he fears in fifty years' time he'll have sold a lot of foreign investors could be playing a negative role here too taxes depend on the region's average sale prices but with some businessman from abroad paying twice or even three times market values the a force in high costs on the locals and many are worried these investors don't care about the industry they have by name too. but there were all these people they come

here and they buy land just like they buy a castle or jewelry are they really good investors the taxes go up because of them but will they keep the wind quality up well we think there should be a state protectionism policy here. but some experts are skeptical of state support saying the french authorities are not only unhelpful but actually trouble making it an issue or a commune that there are many regulations that impede development of pure brick willock things every day enterprise chief has to prove with his lawyers and accountants and then sent to different ministers at least two papers on social environmental or fiscal security can you imagine how much effort that takes while it could be directed to really worthwhile things it's not wise and with the eurozone economies in such trouble greece a high these not twice could become too late the industry seems could well and

the modest effect on r.t. . good afternoon welcome to capital account i'm lauren lyster here in washington d.c. these are your headlines for october fifteenth two thousand and twelve finance chiefs the world over are concerned about another global recession the eurozone crisis the u.s. fiscal cliff and a slowdown in major emerging economies and they totally disagree on their bickering about what to do next this is all according to accounts from the i.m.f. gathering over the weekend in the wall street journal and by bloomberg from

a bird's eye view it's easy to lose sight of some of the new wants is of the world's economy is here to bring us a view from the ground fresh from myanmar is chris mayer and is the c.e.o. of morgan stanley a reformer relative to his too big to fail peers trying to get the bank told a lower risk less complex model well that's how he's been cast by some in the mainstream press but forget about that what about banks that have stuck to a conservative vanilla banking model even during the boom times surviving despite losing major market share to financial sausage factories how does that work we'll hear about a case study of sorts and fed chief ben bernanke east speaks against the benefits of currency management slimming developing economies who are resisting pressures on their appreciating currencies through this case of do is they say not as i do or is bernie he really this clueless we'll talk about it let's get to today's capital account.

so if you look for news on myanmar today you might find reports on thousands of buddhist monks marching in major cities to protest the opening of an organization of islamic cooperation office you might find a story reporting further back on sectarian tensions running high in a western state of the country after clashes in june between buddhists and muslims which left ninety dead and just place tens of thousands now that's obviously a horrible story but so often what you or i may know of a region if we don't have the opportunity to travel is limited to what we read or what the press is reporting and so much gets missed now our guest today travels the

world looking for investment opportunities and economic opportunities in emerging markets and he's pretty excited currently about me and maher so here to talk about why and what lessons we can learn is chris mayer he's managing editor of capital and crisis writer for the daily reckoning and author of the book the world right side up and thank you so much for being back on the show fresh from your recent trip thanks for having me on yes so it's interesting after the i.m.f. this weekend and there is some concern about the major emerging economies that we hear so much about that have been driving global growth and they've slowed down a little bit people are figuring out what to do now with the right policy response that there should be one if you believe that sort of thing you know sometimes we lose we don't hear as much about the emerging markets off the beaten path and one would be myanmar and you were just there and you were pretty excited about it so tell us what's going on there and why you're excited yeah i think the myanmar story is pretty simple really you have an economy of about sixty million people that have been pretty much shut.
