the evidence that suggests syria's rebels have used chemical weapons as russian experts published a report on the type used and how it's inconsistent with army capabilities. syria is likely to loom large over the g. twenty summit in st petersburg was born leaders split on how to solve the conflict and suspicious of the u.s. following the tories surveillance council. while making money by cic refinery sing your privacy we can lease reveals how tech firms are helping governments get inside your online life no matter what their human rights record shows.

this is actually coming to you live from the russian capital i'm marina welcome to the program well russia has published findings from its acts birds have looked into the chemical attack near a series and battled city of aleppo which killed twenty six people back in march there are reports suggest that rebel groups were behind the attack so more about the evidence here. tell us what. moscow has to support its claims well this is a detailed one hundred page long report with thorough analysis of the weapons that were used in that attack in aleppo in mid march and first of all it concludes that it was in fact a chemical attack secondly the weapons that were used were custom built similar to the ones usually used by the rebels in the attacks also specialist found traces of x. again which was a used to release the chemicals that is not the way the military does it also the

xyron nerve gas that was used in that attack. it was produced not industrially but homemade and they found traces of another chemical which was used by western powers during chemical chemical attack during the second world war so these are pretty much the arguments in that report presented by russia which suggests that that attack in aleppo was in fact conducted by the rebels now in light of these findings in light of what you just said how much attention is this report getting from the international community especially. the claims in the united states that only the syrian government possessed the chemicals. this is actually the second time that we're hearing about this report russia already passed it over to the un security to the secretary general of the united nations back in july but neither then or now we are actually hearing about it in international media and basically de facto this

report is being ignored both by world powers and international media unlike the three reports published just recently on the recent attack near damascus they were presented by the intelligence services of the u.s. britain and the u.k. and all three suggests that that was a chemical attack which was conducted by syrian authorities a lot of media attention is currently being paid to these reports basically they are international spotlight even though one of the key arguments in all three is that while they are based on interceptions of communications satellite photos and open source force which are actually youtube videos and information from other social networks the how correct it is is raising lots of questions and another argument shared by all three intelligence services pointing that it was the regime

which held that attack is that the rebels the syrian rebels are simply incapable of dealing with chemical weapons something which is not proved it's not confirmed in the report presented by russia. the president. putin has been saying that if these reports presented by these three intelligence services are concrete they have to be presented to the u.n. security council which still hasn't happened while the u.n. itself is still haven't been able to reach a conclusion on whether or not the chemical weapons were used in that recent attack near us and if so which side. i did it so russia has been saying all along that it has to be decided by the un and any military action against the government over southern state without the approval of one would be considered as an act of aggression. thanks very much for bringing us the very latest on of this court has been off reporting there so why is russia's report of the chemical attack in aleppo

earlier this year they ignore it at the united nations we'll put that earlier to u.n. veteran and its former humanitarian coordinator for iraq has chris of graph on spock you can ask that question on the range of other. reports that have been received which not convenient for those who are determined to carry out an attack but we cannot avoid looking into this and the media have. an obligation also to shed light on this when there are rumors that saudis and qataris have supplied chemicals is that true i don't know that the israelis were involved in this let there be a broad based. presentation what i would say about this is that the stalemate that prevails in the u.n. security council i say this because i am

a person who has thirty two years worked in that organization that stalemate has been created by the insistence of the peace three france britain and the united states that the only answer to a crime whose origin we don't even know yet must be military action. now russia's historic city of same but as burke is hosting the leaders of the world's top twenty connelly's were they will take on some of today's biggest challenges. now u.s. intentions to get involved into syria's war will no doubt dominate the sidelines of the g. twenty this year let's get more from what's going on there right now here's alexie your chef ski and russia's second city for us either alexi well although the summit hasn't started officially yet we know that there have been some discussions on the

margins and what have you heard what's happening. well we do know of several high level meetings already one of them was between the russian president and his chinese colleague obviously there has been no press statement on the outcome of these talks but we have almost clear certainty as to what was discussed at the table there first of all this was an economic issue the multi-billion dollar oil deal between russia and china which was signed in june but apart from that of course the sides have definitely discussed the syrian conflict which is clearly dominating the agenda here at the summit now the chinese vice finance minister this morning sad that should any strike against syria happen this would seriously damage the world economy as a whole because the rising oil prices will definitely inflict lots of damage on the world economy so china in this particular dispute is trying to protect its economy

as well and there's been no secret whatsoever that china and russia has been shared have been sharing a common ground the common stance on the syrian conflict the news which we received shortly short while ago that the u.n. special piece and boy i missed the brainy will also be flying into st petersburg obviously giving us more and more indications that the syrian issue will dominate over economy as it usually been happening during the g twenty summits this time it's more about politics and diplomacy and what about president obama and putin will they have a good chance to talk what are you hearing. well the fact that the chinese leader and the russian leader had the very first meeting of all of these two day summit in st petersburg speaks volumes as to where the priorities lie of moscow and beijing the same cannot be applied to barak obama we do know that there have been no official meetings scheduled between the russian leader and his american counterpart here in st petersburg during the two day summit and in fact barack obama refused to

come to moscow ahead of the summit as it was scheduled before saying that russia granted asylum to edward snowden and the u.s. sees it as an acceptable so the meeting was down so obviously there's no love lost between the two leaders and despite that the russian president in his interview ahead of the summit described barack obama as a very good listen there as a very good person to have conversations with they have been on a very rough patch lately as my colleague in washington again education explains. after president obama canceled bilateral talks with president putin of russia's decision to grant edward snowden asylum many thought it couldn't get any worse the two won't even talk to each other but the one house now says there will be an opportunity for the two leaders to meet on the margins of the g. twenty summit so it looks like as much as washington wants to snub moscow president obama and putin will have to talk the u.s. is about to bypass the u.n.

security council break international law and attack syria we believe very strongly with high confidence that in fact chemical weapons were used and. mr assad was the source russia says america's we believe is not enough and that if there is credible evidence it has to be presented to the u.n. . the question of authorizing the use of force is being discussed by the congress and the senate but it is an absolute commonsense substitution in international law to congress and no cunt. can sanction such a thing what they're trying to authorize is aggression because everything outside the un security council is aggression if this is truly an atrocity that the world has signed on to oppose how come we're so alone president obama is expected to use the g twenty summit to rally a coalition for a strike against syria the u.n.

chief in the meantime said he will use the summit to urge everyone to respect the international law we should all void for the biliteral generation of the country to revitalize the search for a political settlement the g twenty initially found it to deal with global economic issues will of course give a platform to world leaders to voice their position on the crisis in syria but it will be here in chad there in washington i'm going to check out. to follow up on what's going there just sad basically the only possibility that obama and putin can speak is during the round table meetings and they basically they can exchange some words with each other but what will come out of these we of course will hardly know but definitely the russian president is not the only difficult conversation that obama may have with because the brazilian president dilma rousseff said that she has been very offended with the revelations by word snowden that she was wiretapped by the n.s.a.

and she demands an official apology from barack obama even saying that she may cancel her planned visit to washington if this doesn't happen so as we can see the g twenty summit have always been about finding unity and solving economic problems this time there's so much disagreement between the country there's so much discord happening here and maybe this serenity in the background you seeing right now of the constantine of us made not fool you because in fact it will become most likely become the stage of very heated political debates of course we keeping track of all the developments here in st petersburg during the g. twenty summit well indeed alexy ever have to give thanks so much indeed for this not a very easy backdrop there for the leaders and not an easy janitor for them but thanks very much for keeping an eye on what's happening there for us from st petersburg. now president asad is not the only one the u.s. and its allies want. tax evaders and financial criminals will also be a major theme at the summit while the canonical wrangling is expected to eclipse

even the politics of syria i'll report on that in just a few minutes. president obama will be on his own trying to convince other world leaders that a strike against syria should take place secretary of state john kerry won't be attending the gathering unlike his g twenty counterparts he's busy working on a winning over american lawmakers meanwhile the pentagon has had to move swiftly to clarify defense chief chuck hagel that russia supplied chemical weapons to syria officials say goal was in fact referring to russia and syria military ties in general when he spoke at a congressional hearing meanwhile the gulf monarchies are offering to bankroll america's bombing campaign against syria and even find as a full blown invasion sailings at its feared they all up their support for al qaida

cells in desperation to be rid of president of the fans alice and author ivan he calls it's an outrageous offer. it's implicit blackmail and i don't really think it's you know really a conditional thing i think they'll probably do it anyway and i don't see how u.s. bombing would stop that in fact as i say it may cause the jihadists even more to be more active in the war simply because the u.s. is attacking an islamic country they're actively trying to alter the situation on the battlefield against assad but on the other side you have al qaida and i think al qaeda may even be worse than assad and also we're slowly getting dragged into this war if you're trying not to get embroiled in a war because then you're implicitly taking one side over the other even more so than if you're just bombing them to say you shouldn't have used chemical weapons and i think then you get a stake in the outcome of the war. well look at the economic side of the g twenty

she took part in anti-government protests and looked like a genuine email addresses certain another political activist saying that they were going to begin talks with the king of bahrain about the future of the country so i was in fact very very curious the manufacturer was government and national just opened my eyes into this other world of surveillance technology monitoring so we know that the british intelligence carries out its activities but allowing private the private sector to carry out these kind of activities for the foreign governments researches have identified. around the globe we saw a big target against behind activists and journalists last year with all servers with spyware it appears from the number of other countries such as turkmenistan carter we also found a sample of the spyware by spyware appeared to be targeted back to

ethiopia the scary thing from our perspective is that this technology in chapter work for it around the world without any sort of debris it may be the stuff that's movies but campaigners say the british government needs to wake up and start regulating these things to take going to cheat in school and we need to start acting like the weapons that can be used exactly the same as the kind of weapons like. that can be used to hurt people. on the scene. while we're continuing our extensive coverage of the g. twenty summit that's getting underway in st petersburg today. now it may be political crunch time at this year's g. twenty summit but as always finance won't be far behind aside from the usual talk of crisis and unemployment leaders are expected to discuss tax evasion

a new world bank and forge fresh economic alliances ok pilgrim from marty's venture capital program isn't seen but his work with more on what's to be explored. job creation that's one of the central themes we know this to two hundred million people across the globe still searching for work seventy three million of those are use we know in the likes of spain and greece wanting to use are looking for jobs that's really a central theme going on here and the implications of that because as we know it's already a witness social unrest in certain parts of the world to do with the fact that people can't find what's not is a big problem and that goes along with the theme of growth long term growth but the problem is the emerging economies a day are suffering right now there's been a role reversal and earlier on i spoke to alexei courage and he's the former finance minister of russia and he's very well respected in the find as well that he was talking a lot first of all he said to me that the problems in the emerging world now i look

to do with the fundamental problems that were created by the developed world and added to that he actually compares what's going on at the moment on the global economy to a sick man of this and as what he had to say. she just got to work america the world's economy its current state can be characterized as being on life support where it's vital functions are being kept running by the federal reserve the european central bank and other banks by constant cash injections this should only be temporary if a sick man goes through treatment and it doesn't help there's no point continuing it but there's an ongoing effort now to buy time for reforms and changes but this will end in the world's economies will be left to stand on their own feet which countries economies will be able to stand and which ones won't remains to be seen scary stuff just that and he's really talking about this medicine the steroids he's

referring to the fact that central banks keep on pumping money into the economy and we know that the federal reserve chairman ben bernanke he said a back in may that he would be tapering those measures. in response to that the emerging markets had money pulled out from them they've already lost this almost fifty billion dollars india is particularly suffering at the moment that rupee has dropped by a fifth of its value so really the leaders here at the g twenty they have to convince us that they are indeed the doctors if you like to heal the patient which was good and just alluded to just that is very sick right now. now south african peace again nelson mandela is back at home and after a near three month stint in hospital he's still critically ill and getting around the clock here but relatives of the father of the nation are busy finding ways to make money on the back of their famous name policy reports on the dash for cash

that's dividing a family. as the t.v. shows go this one is right up there sibling rivalry feuds and family gossip but it's not any old family we're talking about here it's from mandela's it's clearly not enough project that someone did in a family project is very uncomfortable about. image being associated with commercial projects so the question becomes where do you draw the line the reality show follows the lives of two of mandela's granddaughters as they spend and lose money on extravagant business ventures and go on wild shopping sprees it's a far cry from the humble background mandela grew up in all the grim reality facing millions of south africa's poor black citizens argument it is children it's been made and they have a right to use it however they see fit i think that he has paid his dues to society

and i think his family who very often we don't mention the prize that they've had to pay to be without a father a husband and i. who was behind bars all these years. and yet it's disgusted most south african descent while the icon lay for months in a hospital bed many of his family were cashing in on his famous name two of mandela's daughters took him to court for his legacy it hurt him deeply and dragged the country's moral compass to a new low is absolutely an outrage that's what the armed stand what they're doing and there's a lot of money and after all if you have the name i suppose you feel the mark were to kept last remark but i think it's wrong is like the father is a bit of a nation actually so all of these that i have pretty right now i'm not really sure if this is appropriate for people to be using this they've got iraq to use the mandela name it is their family name you chemical fall in south africa without

being reminded of the ninety five year old nobel laureate he is everywhere on t. shirts banknotes bookshelves smiling down from up above more than just a man he's become a global brand one that's estimated to be worth millions of dollars. an extension of a brand has to be almost more of the same it has to respect the qualities and values about brand into all those other areas so it's a tricky area. nelson mandela is being stretched and tortured and pulled in different directions but for most south africans nothing can match the man himself who lived inside this house this is the mandela family home for weeks people have been leaving here flour was gifts and cards the crowds might have gone but their messages and hopes remaining graved on small stones it's a sad irony that the father of the nation who brought south africa back from an almost certain civil war has seen his own family descend into better fighting

within itself policy r.t. johannesburg south africa. and coming up discover the toll which military service takes on young troops newly returned from the battlefield. iraq afghanistan the balkans somalia haiti libya yemen and so on and so on the list of engagements and airstrikes by post cold war nato just keeps getting longer and now it looks like it's serious turn a lot of people have written me asking me to predict what is going to happen next which for me is a possible i'm not good at predicting the future but i can say is that we are

living in a very tense moment in history many argue that the u.s. economy with its unfathomable debt is really propped up by war and the petro dollar so if the u.s. backs down here would could be the beginning of the end for the world's only hyper power but if they do attack syria there will probably be some sort of reaction from iran russia and china if you haven't noticed nato has been trying to encircled these nations and in russian internet conspiracy land a lot of people are saying that russia is next you see if there is no resistance in syria then one by one all resistance to the un ending hunger of nato will be smashed out one by one the reason syria is so important and so scary is that you have one massive military force that could be very motivated to attack for its own self interest while you have a group of massive military forces how they voted to counterattack for their own self interests this is a very tense standoff that could lead to a major moment in history military history but that's just my opinion.
