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 of 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 it's a free mia in adult 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. this particular kind of calls for. every day.

somebody has had a heart attack we don't put of pressure. 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 then all developed from talking to the parents the people that lived there he just took a little more time for us to develop. currently an autopsy is underway. the police is not really releasing any further details in terms of what they can tell us about this case what we do know as according to them the autopsy results may come 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 party after county texas. the children. says russia has the right to demand the return of the other child who was adopted by the american family if it's proved they caused the death of his brother and the

post from the foundation against child trafficking so the u.s. adoption system lacks supervision. and national i mean the u.s. state level the company so it's not the u.s. state department here this is. actually just like any other children in the u.s. like children of their parents and so the state level here is a human in russia who are. in child protection supervised care. by rights out there from officials from the state. and. private family like any other child and so there's nobody supervised nobody not for you and even the post adoption rate for. russia very. i don't.

buy the. option. to. say anything critical about you know. work don't work with her and work towards reintegration into the family. for press freedom has become one of the key roadblocks to turkey's e.u. membership a journalist rights watchdog report says the country has become the world's number one media prison many reporters are detained under antiterrorism the laws being held without charge for prolonged periods of time with details from artie's. 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. 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 claim turkey their cake was for journalists for writing anything they thought is 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 and 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 and drawings journalism activities. reporters have been incarcerated over there 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 journalist . see affiliation with their unicon is just one of many clever ways the government gets away with locking them up the. government says. prescott who qualify as journalists. of course a primitive reply. which befits will. be

a prime minister who said the people. because. prison by not have had prescott's journalism is a rather popular career choice for young people in turkey the country boasts numerous years 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 to use official views all the religious leaders 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 because 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 a 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 even though school i t. rusher is ready to host talks between the syrian rebels and the government then the cations that the situation isn't moving out of its dead end that optimism is from the foreign minister lavrov he's due to meet his syrian counterpart on monday the opposition leader also expected to visit the russian capital where it's not known when more from. earlier the leader of the syrian opposition for the first time said that they're ready to negotiate with the government but only on condition that the release one hundred sixty thousand prisoners will be claimed have been jailed because of their political views now the government on its and said that it's ready to talk but without any preconditions or clearly there are

still major sticking points including the fate of president assad but russia's foreign minister says that there is room for potential progress now moscow has been saying that it's not taking sides in this conflict but is calling on the international community to require apply equal pressure on them in order to begin a political process in syria when you knew that it until recently there were those who discouraged the opposition from participating in dialogue with the regime just as far as i understand now the situation is changing and so it's important that this readiness of the syrian opposition leadership will be met with the government's response so that they are willing to do the same in the meantime and 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. haya fuel

prices are hitting pockets around the globe with the root causes ranging from a restive middle east to recession well that's one of the movers and shakers from the world's energy sector i mean london see how to find a way out to blow not like to. the printer that could really keep your hands off the brake the scientists on the verge of developing machine to reproduce a living tissue including concert and surrounding it and. we are facing a lot of problem. because no one thought to drink no good school. but no permits when you feel sorry for. other local what's not going up up is

for international news for you now the high fuel prices have been a burden for many consumers but even those working in the industry say it's holding the world back from recovery making it worse saw the sanctions on iran on the on going on certainty in the middle east more than two thousand key players from the oil and gas industry are now thrashing out the problems and possible solutions in london sarah ferguson has been hearing from the experts. thousands of oil and gas professionals from the well 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 their 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 and 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 they all will 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 served as well as years go by governments around the world seppala says on trade and other things become pretty the company's job is to acquire the best technology in 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 as if saying right now there are gas and oil prices through the roof of the best think yes you're right on the best thing we can do is invest so i unfortunately view of easy all 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 get the 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 dampen assert right the potential rising prices thank you very much for joining us thank you so. our sanctions on iran have reduced its oil exports and investors will keenly watch

next week's nuclear talks for signs of a shift deep seated tensions remain in the west which suspects tehran of developing atomic weapons were back in two thousand and seven the white house came close to launching military action against iran but was stopped by a national intelligence report saying iran had halted its covert program r.t. has spoken to its author. judgments and 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 the. at the time required to go from physical material to what. we did it was short of the physical material on it but they've halted it. for. 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 this program back on again at any time and we also. released part we weren't sure we would know if they turned it back on . in fact you can watch the full interview with the former chief of the u.s. national intelligence council at six forty five pm g.m.t. right here on r.t. . well how do you ensure your allies of the future one way is to educate them in your own country while they're young there are a fair few potential foreign leaders currently in america's education system getting insight from the winner is going looting former secretary of state hillary clinton who signed on with

a public speaking agency is going to be karen has been finding out it's a strategy that's bearing fruit. 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 impair our 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 us he went on to become the head of leave us 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 public relations being 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 but you don't have to stand somewhere so i never pursued a career with the training. part. of the country i mean i may not be fond of the government in iran but i want. to and i was sitting. lecturers and people saying how do we think the market i'd be undermined. sophie it was a real challenge to see the program through this age. definitely of

the soviet union we think in two thousand and seven when i was in that program they had already started the push towards africa diplomacy is good business as has been made clear by the state department time and time again getting poor in leaders and their advisors to think in english and to subsequently favor the united states in their policy is much cheaper than bombing their country so the state department will certainly be more forceful in their efforts at exercising power in washington i'm going to shake them. if you have a smartphone you know there's an app for just about everything now there's one for you to post some post-mortem tweets. on twitter on line spirit and know if you want to leave off as we reported. also there today scoring a hit against the us state department the hacking group anonymous. to publish the

database of the government branch online and what they discovered on our website. now there are computer printers that can bring us a vivid color and even photo quality how about one which prints human organs it's in development now and scientists working on it think it will prove a watershed moment for medicine and the fears over human cloning could make so-called people printing hard to sell as many point non-experts. 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 ink 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 though 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 if 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. a quick look at some other world news now starting with the crisis plagued greece where right now thousands of workers are protesting against wage cuts and high taxes the country is again being crippled by the latest nationwide strike schools and hospitals closed transport standstill the chair on
