twenty four hours a day seven days a week this is archie the postponement of the inauguration off date for venezuelan president hugo chavez is illegal according to the country's supreme court you know all the countries once president has called for people together in front of the presidential palace to honor the ailing leader who's said to be recovering from cancer surgery in cuba lying evil gallen joe says the president's protracted absence could still destabilize the country. article two thirty one of the venezuelan constitution does leave open to interpretation the issue of inauguration when the elected president cannot meet the date of january tenth before the national assembly which is the parliament what the article specifically says in a second clause is that in the case of unforeseen circumstances then the president

elect will be sworn in before the supreme court but it doesn't give a date for there is another article in the constitution as well under which president chavez was authorized to leave the country for more than five days back in early december in order to undergo the surgery and that article allows him to be absent from the country for it ninety days which can be renewed for another ninety days the issue is whether or not he's now incurring those first ninety days or is he under just the initial authorization now it's really way it's going to be determined sooner as well because it's there is no question that the president has now been out of the country for more than a month he's been absent from the spotlight there's not really a crisis at this time the opposition is trying to say there is a crisis and there is no doubt they're calling for national strikes all kinds of protests there are already asking for the organization of american states and the united states to intervene that's going to be ongoing and yes the longer that

chavez is away the more time that will give them to prepare and to further prior progress with plans to the stabilize his government and try to create some situation where new elections can be can mean european leaders have voiced support for a deal designed to reduce ireland's a banking debt the news comes as the president of the european council had one friend rand paul health top level talks in dublin after the country took over that you were taking presidency and some as was believe the island must get their own house in order before taking up the challenge of pulling the european union out of the financial ditch. island has its own economic problems which are continuing it course has the economic problems which have been happening ever since the euro which created high inflation there and then of course exacerbated the faster they had ready to take on the presidency of the european council is of course very large piece of work not just for the senior politicians in the government but also for

many of the civil servants and they would be better off spending their time really trying to address arlen's economic difficulties rather than trying to solve the problems within the european union which are very great indeed of course unemployment now in the you is alarmingly high and of course the thing is is that arlen when he says island is there is a reason that on and supposed to for austerity means that the irish people are not protesting and taking up. protests as people in spain and greece have done because we know that austerity at this time point actually work last year in the euro in the single currency it will create more economic problems that's why we see unemployment across the eurozone rising quite alarming are you so he's very happy that arlen is getting on with the use policy of austerity but actually it's actually the vong policy this time. they i am have stopped the economic star libya blanchard admits he was wrong about early else thirty forecasts and meeting failure

to see the grave consequences which financial measures brought on we can't you countries such as greece and i.m.f. are working paper says of the funders significantly underestimated any potential increase in an unemployment market be at the top only a london based financial adviser and wealth manager says regardless of the later statements people will end up paying for governments mistakes. the reality is of course the most wasteful western governments which includes most of the southern european countries the level of state involvement in the economy has grown substantially over the last few years and what happens is of course that any significant austerity measures will have a massive impact on our on the economy what is being is debt accumulation that's the same in the us and most of most of europe marries continuing massive accumulation of sovereign debt. and asked for some point this

was. through. through the european central bank through the germans and the european community but has imposed these these massive austerity measures on european peripheral countries and of course it's not the people's follow the government has overspent it's not the people's fault that the banking system has failed and needed to be but it's the people who have to do you read the dead through taxation and have to. enjoy these these massive austerity measures as the economic crisis continues to rage on regulators are coming under fire for making banks lives easier rather than the people's and it appears the white of public knows little of

how and where the big decisions about the global financial future are being made as artie's paid all of the reports. have you ever heard the one about the bank is the billions and bars all the chances are you probably haven't but six times a year central bank heads from the u.s. europe asia and everywhere in between representing around three quarters of global economic output gather in the swiss city to talk shop behind closed doors i personally also don't like these secretive meetings because. you never know what in effect. is discussed in these meetings it's something that has a tradition that's put there play i mean bankers have always talked to each other in a more secretive way the whole business of banking is not really built on transparency but rather on trust and confidentiality the continuing global financial crisis has

seen the banking sector firmly in the spotlight with more than a few accusing fingers pointed in the direction of bankers it's the job of the secretive bars all committee to set regulations on banks the chairman of the group says he wants the public to be better informed about the work they do it's not that many years ago since this was basically a group of central banks it's expanded its membership considerably and in the process of that the whole governance arrangements of have changed as well and i think this is an attempt to explain to you in the world in general what those changes amount to and whether critics of the group are scathing in their criticism of what they see as an old boys club looking out for the needs of banking bosses as opposed to keeping the industry in line bezel three has failed to meet any objective in the you know faint hope of reining in banks this this is what we talk about today the banks does have to be reined in because the banking system in

itself as a general rule has left its you know bottom sense despite mervyn king saying that he wants. people to better understand what the basel committee actually do the very nature of the banking industry and its need for a certain level of secrecy means that the big decisions that will affect people all over the world will continue to be made by a small group of people we think in that building just behind me peter all of us r.t. basel switzerland. all not the way eleven years of indefinite detention we discussed the ramifications of washington's decision to keep the notorious going time of baby military prison open despite barack obama's long running pledge to shut down the facility. heating the rifts as rival palestinian groups hamas and fatah drudgery become the differences we look into how israel's occupation policies may have brought the factions closer together all that after

us says the u.s. is trying to evade international law some countries turn a blind eye. one time of day after eleven years has got immense symbolic power and all the things it represents to human rights campaigners people who believe in truth justice and the rule of law it represents injustice before the americans it gives them a raise and it gives them a system within which an extra legal system within which they can continue their. illegal detention arbitrary detention torture drone attacks all the other possible that we've seen over the past eleven years from the american administration so the united states which has signed torture conventions has signed the geneva conventions but is trying to work outside of them by calling torture enhanced interrogation and by calling their prisoners of war enemy combatants is trying to create a completely new structure which in some part it has succeeded in doing over the past eleven years simply because almost the rest of the world the so-called

international community is quite happy to play along but that doesn't mean that the united states or anybody else is above the law it's not just washington's problem it's a problem the international community is the problem of the countries that facilitated the journeys and the travel of these men to guantanamo bay in the first place where everybody was in afghanistan or pakistan or fighting the americans at all the united states doesn't seem to have a very credible position but unfortunately it's not just united states that has failed on this issue it's the whole international community through their collusion in continuing to keep guantanamo bay open will be bringing you more coverage of the eleventh anniversary of guantanamo bay on air and on our website at archie dot com . your borders and the courts eleven years on the guantanamo remains open for business are to look to deter a geisha nerve center of america's war on terror.

the future of afghanistan is up for discussion as the country's leader prepares to meet top american officials in washington late on thursday. with u.s. defense and state secretaries as well as his one on one summit with president barack obama could provide answers to a wide range of crucial issues including the number of american troops that remain in afghanistan after the majority pullout in twenty fourteen and their possible role washington hasn't finalize its decision on the matter and doesn't rule out a complete withdrawal that scenario is unwelcome by the afghan government whose position is increasingly fragile amid the strengthening taliban insurgency patricia genaro politics professor from new york university says it's in no one's interest all the u.s. forces to leave right away. there's a lot of talk about not leaving any troops there at all however i don't think the us can afford bad leadership in the region because there are still quite

a bit of violence going on on there so i think the president will probably leave some troops there for some time but i would soon president karzai is going to want that out because it gives him more. or it makes him look more powerful on the negotiating table and within the context of his own constituency however he also needs some protection so it'll be a little bit of a catch twenty two situation for that i think probably hopes to achieve a few things a one his continued military support for the afghan troops so they can maintain their own military or army if you will and the second is can continue to. monetary support in some development efforts there. this man may not have the most conventional looks will governments but he is looking to make a mark in check politics by not mall online. also.

a group the gaza government was opposed to except this time it wasn't the israelis who forced him into exile but hamas and other bronzer i work with family and house in gaza and headed for the west bank but it was only after the negotiations began with seventeen of us were given approval to go back home. it was back in two thousand and seven in a surprise coup that he must took control of gaza from wyvil faction group fatah one hundred sixty one people were killed and more than seven hundred injured when the dust settled the palestinian people were divided a mass was in charge in gaza fatah called the shots in the west bank hundreds fled their homes from both in fear of their lives like other fatah supporters from gaza mohammed took refuge in the west bank waiting for the day we conciliation would come. all denied i prayed to god to protect my son mohamad i prayed for his safety and asked god to bring him back home safe and now for the first time we

conciliation between the two sides looks promising each feels boosted by recent successes and is more willing to compromise her muscles capitalizing on the recent conflict with israel despite the heavy cost for fatah who's claiming victory after its president mahmoud abbas successfully upgrade a palestinian state has at the united nations as her mustn't factor move closer together the irony is that they're getting help from israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu in his right wing policies and rhetoric are winning the palestinian support and sympathy on the international stage it was on that one young who's watching that as the recent united nations palestinian statehood bid demonstrated european unfailing support for israel has floundered it was also an attorney on whose watch that u.s. is revelations reached their lowest ebb and now it's on his watch again that palestinian unity seems plausible from us. for her it's a long term interest of first i think cooperate again because otherwise they're running the risk. of the worst will be and probably part of the political structure

which de facto right now is the case leaders from both sides have a new day course for reconsideration if you think that of course. between hamas and catastrophe it's proof for that doesn't mean. it's true but for this family nothing can detract from the feeling of gratitude and joy of a father and son coming home they tears and smiles it could a hope that a new chapter is also about to open in gaza political life police here r.t. on the israel gaza border some other world news in brief and israeli police are treating a car bombing in central tel aviv as a criminal not a terrorist act several people were injured when the blast went off near a bus station or far from the israeli defense ministry headquarters authorities believe the attack could have been an attempt to assassinate a local crime ring leader political violence has also not been ruled out as the

incident comes less than two weeks before the parliamentary election. three female goodish independence activists have been found dead from gunshot wounds in paris one of the victims who was the co-founder of the kurdistan workers party known as the p.k. k. who are in an armed struggle for separation from terry king forty thousand people have so far been killed in the twenty five year battle for independence has recently begun to waltz with the party's jailed leader to try and persuade the organization to disarm. a powerful blast says struck a security vehicle in a crowded part of pakistan city of where at least eleven people have been killed and dozens more wounded in the attack the explosion destroyed a nearby market place and surrounding cars where day is the capital of what's considered called the sun's most deprived province suffering from separate is

insurgency and sectarian violence. in baghdad at least five people have been killed and fifteen wounded in a car bomb blast at a busy bus stop the attack happened during the morning rush hour the explosion occurred in the mainly shia district of the iraqi capital the bloodshed comes amid growing discontent among iraqis sunni's a population over alleged discrimination by the shia led government. russia's republic of your county here declared a war on walls scores of the predators are reported to be closing in on several residential areas in the region posing a serious threat to livestock and earlier our tom barge and explain to my colleague or marina joshie why the region is partly in a state of emergency. it is a very serious situation. here is a vast territory with a very low payment population but

a lot of the people who live there rely on reindeer for their for their livelihood and on the horses they used to travel with those herds of reindeer and those reindeer what the wolves are desperately trying to get to driven there by hunger because they are normal foodstuffs are like hares and rabbits are a lot more scarce this year so these some of these pictures show this is a wolf in a zoo but some of these other pictures show wolves in the wild in siberia usually they would stay well away from these reindeer herds but they're being driven there by hunger it killed sixteen thousand reindeer last year that's simply too much the numbers of wolves have reached three thousand five hundred new. and the president of the republic says that's too much that the attrition rate as it were on the reindeer is reached it now too expensive they're losing too many reindeer and that's become a serious problem sure it does sound like a serious problem and like you said it probably happens because there is an

imbalance of other animals in the forest and that's why the wolves are driven out of the forest and exactly closer to the people so what is the solution to the problem under the circumstances is there any at all solution is as you might probably think relatively simple just step up a hunting of the wolves a sort of a natural cole as it were of these planned cull of the of these wolves so that the president of the public has really really gone for that and said rewards will be offered to hunters six figure awards for the top three hunters the aim is to kill three thousand of the three thousand five hundred wolves. in the next three months starting in a in a few days' time and that hopefully will bring the numbers down to what experts say is it should be the natural level about five hundred wolves or not three thousand five. so ok on r t the story of the occupy movement from its inception.
