u.s. investigators still see this is almost a month after the death of a three year old russian boy that moscow officials claim was killed by his adoptive american mother. is being to reform its anti terror laws which put dozens of journalists behind bars making it the world leader in the press. and moscow says the situation in syria is moving from a dead end this comes as russia meets with the arab league trying to get peace talks between the rebels and the government off the ground.

and i welcome you watching r.t. live from moscow with many. top story almost a month after the death of a three year old russian boy in texas local police is still continuing their investigation russian officials believe maxine cruz man was abused by his adoptive american mother but u.s. authorities say they are still waiting for topsy results. in the family's hometown russian officials are outraged that yet another case of a death of a russian child living in an adoptive family in the united states we're standing outside the home of alan and laura shadow parents two three year old max shadow known in russia as moxon cruz mean the three year old boy after suffering severe bruises to his legs head and internal organs had died in january this year just a few weeks after his third birthday right now his parents are not making any statements if you call their voicemail it says if you're a reporter or news agency we have no comment now according to russian officials the

investigation that they're conducting they're saying allegedly was the mother all. the child that was behind this death they're saying not only was the child severely bruised but had also been fed for a long time anti-psychotic drugs meant to treat sky premier and adults drug that is sold by prescription in the united states we do know that the younger brother of much steam t.d.o. continues living with the family here at the county sheriff's office an investigation is currently ongoing in cooperation with russian officials and local child protection services on the afternoon of january twenty first the local police department had received a call from a local hospital emergency room while a police officer was on his way there the three year old boy had already died unfortunately we get these kind of this particular kind of calls for service every day we go out there somebody has had a heart attack we don't put pressure on the we have a child that's been injured in an a.t.v.

we don't put a pressure a shot on unless we start suspecting that something may be out of the ordinary. it wasn't a little bit later that we started getting some suspicions of what was going on and that all developed from talking to the parents the people that live there it just took a little more time for us to develop. currently an autopsy is underway and the police is not really releasing any further details in terms of what they can tell us about this case what we do know is according to them the autopsy results may come as soon as this afternoon to any time from a month from now tell us that there are no suspects in this case as of yet and no arrests have been made and. after county texas. from the foundation against child trafficking says the whole adoption system in the u.s. is flawed and lacks supervision. health protection because you know this is just assertion is that national will come to terms i mean the u.s.

is at state level the company so it's not that a u.s. state department can you see in the theater this is adults and children actually said like any other children in the u.s. like children love their parents and so the state level cannot interfere about children in russia who are in danger of an enormous are in child protection in supervised care or some organized by or by rights out there from official from the state in order child adoption i don't think you regularly get that south well freida family and it's basically like any other child so there's nobody supervising and there's nobody except enough for you i mean when you post adoption reforest will be a light central russia very rough about i don't hear the choir and so forth by the south lawson agency. and i love to speak but fortunately for us to say anything be critical about cuba one has to work on the channel and work with the parents and

work towards reintegration into the family turkey aspiring to become an e.u. member has been urged by the council of europe to improve its record on press freedom the country is now the world leader in imprisoning journalists on the so-called antiterrorism nourse they are not authorities to detain suspects long periods of time before being formally charged. reports. it's because of people like me that turkey who is the number one spot in the world for the number of journalists in jail nadeem was arrested and held for two hundred days his charge opting in classified documents and insulting government officials he suspects it was because he published a book investigating the death of another journalist which unnerved government officials for. the main reason the government arrests journalists just to stifle voices of disagreement the best way to do that is to silence the journalists who speak out against the government then their audience will also fall silent that's

the main reason behind the imprisonment of journalists it's not just journalists you get put in jail doctors students labor union leaders the risk of people being thrown in jail in turkey. his words are backed by research from the committee for protection of journalists which blame turkey's or cake laws for journalists for writing anything their thirty's might consider on turkish on par with terrorists the problem with press freedom in turkey stands mainly from the legal framework it has to be reformed and it has to be fundamentally reformed in order for turkey to stop conflating terrorism with journalism turkish officials promised last november a proposal to parliament that laws be changed to improve the treatment of journalists at the time the country's news agencies quoted the turkish deputy prime minister who responded to this report for us the number is not important we are greatly

saddened even by one journalist being jailed for their rights in drawings journalism activities jail reporters have been incarcerated over their legit connection to organic on a deeply secret anti government organisation most of whose members have never been identified and which exist many believe only in official papers turkish journalists . affiliation with a unicon is just one of many clever ways the government gets away with locking them up. the government says. press carte enough to qualify as journalists. and that's of course a primitive reply. which befits will. be a prime minister who said the people did prison because. prison why because i know that had prescott's journalism is

a rather popular career choice for young people in turkey the country boasts numerous yes papers and a plethora of to the channels but in the current circumstances every reports could end up being a one way ticket to jail. because i teach journalism in a university families of my students tell them go learn journalism but don't become journalists still a lot of young people feel it's a good way to express their view on the government the disagreement it's a popular career but a dangerous one this c.p.g. says turkish officials lose all their legislative powers not just incarcerate journalists but also scare them from reporting anything the government doesn't like a tactic that won't deter people like nadine. there's no fear my trial continues i may be out of jail but i'm still facing a fifteen year term and in turkey anything can happen the police can accuse me of anything but being a member of the terror group for example someone can send them an anonymous letter

mail use it as evidence and i'll be back behind bars. in turkey. i t. . russia's foreign minister says continuing the use of force in the syrian conflict will not lead to a satisfactory conclusion of made the statement while hosting talks with the arab league chief. and foreign ministers of five other arab nations moscow says the situation has started moving from a dead end with both sides apparently thinking of opening up dialogue artie's. as more. earlier the leader of the syrian opposition for the first time said that they're really to negotiate with the government but only on condition that the release one hundred sixty thousand prisoners will be claimed to have been jailed because of their political views the government on its head and said that it's ready to talk without any preconditions so clearly there are still major sticking points including the feet of president assad but russia's foreign minister says that there is room for potential progress moscow has been saying that it's not

taking sides in this conflict but is calling on the international community to apply equal pressure on them in order to begin a political process in syria and the foreign ministry says even vis the arab league has great potential in the meantime of the situation in syria continues to deteriorate and on tuesday russian emergencies ministry's plane evacuated around one hundred russian and c.i.s. citizens and there's also speculation that several russian navy ships have been sent to the mediterranean to assist possible further evacuations. now just ahead when it comes to the methods used to become the world's leading superpower it seems anything goes but as we reveal later washington strategies could soon be more about loyalty to the stars and stripes rather than just about military might and a new method of making a living tissue called bio printing could be of great medical benefit but a danger in the wrong hands we explain why if you.

welcome back now the world's leading figures in the oil and gas industries have gathered in london for the international weight while some experts suggest tensions in the middle east are inflating prices there are also concerns that sanctions on iran could also be increasing costs for consumer. reports. thousands of oil and gas professionals from overwhelmed the world have gathered here in london for the annual international petroleum week listened to talks from senior industry figures last year and the buzz around sanctions on iran dominated the talks these sanctions were supposed to bring iran to the negotiating table over the need clear program

that the sun and the sanctions could have come at a worse time a loss of production in south sudan in yemen in the north sea and now in syria has been driving prices higher than the reigning queen still in demand in asia with the u.k.'s problem with millions of home struggling with fuel poverty being echoed all across the european union right now is it the european consumer has been hardest hit by these sanctions we've been speaking to some industry insiders to find out what they think so obviously you've got the private companies then sort of carrying out political decisions are having very tough economic as they always say today looks like the oil and gas companies sort of in bed with the government i don't i don't see that we are taught i think the politicians around the world have to make the decisions companies have to get on with business technology business commercial business right now always the way with iran oil being used as a political weapon and i wouldn't use that sort of phrase i mean i think it's

always the case that as those years go by governments around the world surpluses on trade and other things become part of the company's job is to acquire the best technology the best and the best commerce to comply with whatever the environment is at the time to get the best deal for can seem is ultimately ultimately that's the job yes it can seem is it saying right now there are gas and oil prices through the roof of the best think yes you're right on the first thing we can do is invest so i unfortunately age of easy or and cheap oil i think is past but we're finding more oil in the technology is getting better and better what we've got to do is to ensure it doesn't keep on the best thing that we can do is to go. technology deployed get the best work practices get the financing and get additional oil production because that's the best thing the companies can do to dump them. right the potential rising prices thank you very much for joining us thank you sir well the sanctions on iran were triggered by western claims the country seeking to build an atomic bomb r.t. caught up with the man many suggest prevented a u.s.

strike and terrans controversial nuclear program back in two thousand and seven the full interview airs later today here on r.t. is a quick. judgment that we made was that it was a political decision to halt the weaponization portions of its program or continue to fizzle material fissile material was the pacing element. that. at the time required to go from physical material. we did it was short of the physical material. on but they've halted it. for the. terminology we used was because of international scrutiny and pressure but that center was a political decision it was a matter of a technical problem. or a change in geo political situation they still lived in a tough neighborhood. that they could turn loose program back on again any time and

we also. released part we weren't sure we would know if they turned it back on. and what is the greatest tool secure america's future global influence is a military troops or drones perhaps well it appears the us is also using its well respected education system for a long term geo political gains and it is a strategy that's bearing fruit is the any future pm reports. the u.s. is investing in potential for invaders by educating them in america convinced that back in their home countries when the time comes most of them will side with u.s. interests in power future generations of political leaders who've had a positive american experience and they are more likely to be global partners libya's mahmoud jibril could be one example having studied in the u.s.

he went on to become the head of libya's transition government he's now the leader of one of the country's biggest political parties there's little doubt which country he would favor when it comes to dividing lucrative oil deals in the future u.s. foreign service officers had their eye on him even before the revolution broke out a leaked diplomatic cable from november two thousand and nine written by the u.s. ambassador to libya gene credits described mr general as quote a serious interlocutor who quote unquote gets the u.s. perspective and of course mr gibril is not the only one who gets the u.s. perspective i'm not going to measure how many kids were really just on a program what i'm going to do is look at where they are five years later and you know what ninety two percent of the people who go on u.s. government exchanges go on to work in civil society positions in the parliament or in an n g o sariah took

a two year course in public diplomacy in two thousand and six at the university of south in california in this particular program this was. every single lecture has a state department member that's. so you know that you're not really learning. how to implement. the u.s. trade and development agency an offshoot of the state department's usa id claims that what they call aid is actually investment agencies deputy director says for every one dollar they invest they get eight dollars back in u.s. exports america's officials maintain that it's hard to overestimate the benefits of investing in public diplomacy the investment i do not call it spending it's an investment it's absolutely an investment and there's a return on investment and it's very hard to quantify that return completely but i can tell you that you could quantify it in troops that you don't have to send

somewhere so i never pursued a career with the training she were sieved. other countries i mean i may not be fond of the government in iran but i support. and i was sitting last. lectures and people saying how do we think the market we undermined the government so for me it was a real challenge to see the program through this it was. definitely the soviet union. two thousand and seven when i was in the program has already started the push towards africa diplomacy is good business as it's been made clear by the state department time and time again getting boring leaders and their advisors to think in english and to subsequently favor the united states in their policy is much cheaper. bombing their country so the state department will

certainly be more forceful in their efforts at exercising some power in washington i'm. struggling to get its economy back on track the u.k. is knocking on india's door to british prime minister's third day new delhi where he's looking to bolster trade ties there david cameron says he wants a special partnership between the two nations and also become the first serving pm to voice regret over one of the british empire is bloodiest cameron will lay a wreath at the scene of a notorious massacre of unarmed civilians spite these new moves new delhi your pay is cautious of any potential new partnership the indian premier expressing concerns over a number of issues including a deal for british built helicopters and the u.k.'s visa regime professor. from the school of international affairs believes cameron is not facing up to the reality of the situation. where we would like to see your media ease and you get

a good relationship that is on a level footing and based on mutual interest between india and he's being seen as important for. long was here recently and there was almost like a bee line of course there are crying because you're. going to become something busy convience most of us and europe as you know has been completely suffered by austerity so on one hand they're trying to promote bilateral trigger and expanded on the other hand you know the shrinking of the state under these conservative policies he's not going to help them revive the group and in the absence of growth to get as you know there are these corporations going to manufacture and export goods or services so i think we have to be realistic i mean the governor of the bank of england when king himself said that we're only halfway through the global economic crisis if that is so then we're looking at two thousand and eighteen as the only time when we're going to come out of this crisis so until then i think

most of these targets are morsi aspirational and i would be surprised if these are not meant. now in other news the tunisian prime minister. has stepped down after his own ruling his arm his party rebuffed by far left to form a new government it's expected to deepen the political crisis there's been a stalemate over the drafting of a new constitution for more than a year to call for a new cabinet are you sasa nation of an opposition leader sparked a fresh way of unrest in the country has struggled to find political stability since the arab spring revolution and twenty eleven. scuffles between police and the fascist protesters have broken at cambridge university the leader of the french national party mirroring the pan was making a speech there hundreds demonstrated against the decision to invite the right wing politician but then who is often criticized in france for her extreme views secure third spot in the french twenty twelve presidential election having polled almost eighteen percent of its. fighting appears to have intensified in northern parts of

a method called by printing uses real cells that can be put in a special print cartridge to produce a living tissue but for all its medical benefits the area might hold some future threats as artie's marina port explained. major universities corporate laboratories and biomedical engineers are printing experimental heart valves need cartilage is bone implants kidney cells and even healing tissue now three d. bio printing essentially squirts of the living cells to build up to shoot structure eventually biomedical engineer is hoped to print out taylor tissue suitable for surgery and entire organs that can be used in transplants experts say that ideally they would like to create organs for those that are on lists waiting for organs and possibly you know in life circumstances in dire life circumstances so

pioneers of this bio printing believe it will be a huge benefit to to the public and to the medical community to i could essentially use photographs of you and then create a three d. image of you which is quite scary because with these three d. printing we don't know how far will go how far will develop and to know that a stranger can find a piece of your hair or your cigarette but if you smoke or a glass that you drank out of or even a few pictures of you and create a three d. facial structure of you is is a bit terrifying i mean forget about surveillance and privacy issues knowing that a stranger could do something like that view it doesn't mean it doesn't keep a sense of calm within the public and this is just the start of it who knows how it will develop five years from now maybe a person can be cloned or a parent person can be replicated between their photographs between the hair and

their d.n.a. and between them and also add to that the virtual identity that most people have created for themselves online through social media through uses of skype through e-mail essentially there's a footprint of someone everywhere be through your hair or your activity online and that could essentially be duplicated with all this new software and technology that's pioneering right now. last night and stuff will head to dot com for more on the stories we are covering at the moment also there you will find everlasting social networking a brand new online twitter users to keep posting from beyond the grave check out exactly have at our website and the death of russia's mafia godfather grandpa stan means a serious reshuffle in the criminal world find out why gangs to get togethers and moscow restaurants didn't turn out all that well for almost one hundred crooks.
