washington wrangling to secure a budget busting the deal keeps the world economy on edge or with little sign of a conclusion two days before it could cause a catastrophic default. so we're in the servers major firms and governments are making moves to get their data beyond the reach of the n.s.a. turning to localise connection string show great to privacy. and tension in moscow as thousands of muslims appear to mark one of islams main holy days but in the shadow of sunday's bomb and a gun quest in the capital. a i. get live from moscow this is r t you with me

tongue would say let's take a look at the top story this hour. the united states is only two days away from financial collapse unless the lawmakers can strike a budget deal to avoid default rival democrats and rep it republicans have been stuck in a loop for over two weeks now with those government were crippled and the sun are course on the deadlock that could spark a domino effect around the world. this self-inflicted shutdown is causing panic around the world as washington scrambles to avoid default the global economy is at risk of being thrust back into recession while at home millions will have to cut their losses either way deal or no deal businesses that were unable to work at full capacity for public sector contracts which will see delays in payment and unemployment which is already on the rise due to the shutdown but possibly the most ironic thing about this government shutdown now in its third week is that it's not saving money it's costing america at least one hundred sixty million dollars

a day and given the crisis has entered its fifteenth day the overall costs could be as much as two and a half billion dollars and that number of course is expected to grow and the political debate is hampering a rise in the debt ceiling but also leaving sick americans out in the cold for each week of the shutdown hundreds of patients cannot be accepted for treatment at the national institutes of health including cancer patients seventy five percent of the staff is not working because of the shutdown and it's the patients in need of medical treatment that are suffering veterans are outraged at the closing of public parks and war monuments due to this shutdown the government has run out of cash to pay some eight hundred thousand federal workers during the deadlock over the weekend thousands came out in d.c. and stormed the barricades at a world war two memorial calling for the government to stop using veterans as political pawns in this battle for the budget while another group of retired

military personnel are set to protest here in washington d.c. this week again starting their rally at that war memorial the department of veterans affairs and seeing the backlog of disability disability claims grow along with the frustration and uncertainty among the military community also prominent faith leaders are set to join locked out workers at republican offices to pray. and march for an end to the shutdown they're expected to call attention to each representative stance on the debt ceiling encouraging them to vote to end this standoff so as the shutdown continues we are seeing more and more protests in the capital and more people in different groups demanding the government do their job and get a budget passed. the executive director at the american jobs aligns a told us how lawmakers have a knack for intimidating the public did not win the nobel prize in economics today you may have noticed but it does seem to be that it could have quite

a catastrophic effect we're talking about global economic financial chaos is what he described and. i prefer not to play roulette like that the depths of human folly or fathomless i would hope that they wouldn't but we're talking about politicians now so if the depths of human folly are worse with politicians it's even worse. days by washington's of laundering verging economic disaster china is calling full a de americanize world u.s.d. folder would strike a serious pay to the asian powerhouse which sits on more than a trillion dollars in new s. treasuries not china expert andrew leon says beijing is already cutting loose from the binding bridges. the situation is changing because china's surplus and falling down as a reserve is mounting and the us seems to be printing money with no end in sight

the us dollar has lost. his value since the fed the reserve was established and there was little return for. investment and then with china's frugal eyes straight there are opportunities open enough in terms of the sources of assets so china has been via versified we are seeing that china has that a special feature a zones in shanghai chen high hong kong to speed up the process of. the remember a i think international currency so all signs point to the fact that the renminbi is likely to become fully convertible maybe within the bank it. reducing reliance on the u.s. dollar has been discussed this is the credit crunch struck back in two thousand and eight later on r t because a report assesses china's aspirations for five years on. keeping criticism of

caustic ridicule on washington the news agency called the us civilian slayer prisoner torture and meddler and others affairs and said the pax americana was a failure on all fronts well i mean china should walk the walk instead of just talking the talk so kicked out mcdonald's kicked out kentucky fried chicken kicked out coca-cola they're making your citizens obese and you're getting diabetes so you know they talk the talk while trying to walk the walk simultaneously and they say they want to d.m. merican eyes the world here's a here's a country that huge exposure to exports to america is the basis for their mercantile list rise of the twenty first century why would they be cutting the nose off to spite their face unless they're ready to come out and say we've got enough gold at this time to cut the dollar loose. foreign governments and businesses affected by the n.s.a.

surveillance said edward snowden revealed taking decisive steps to prevent future spying brazil is creating an encrypted e-mail service to shield official communications from u.s. snooping and germany's the biggest telecoms firms is planning to switch to exclusively domestic connections to protect or they use this private data that details from our correspondent in berlin. here inside one of the main offices of germany's largest telecommunications operates and they are coming up with a plan that they hope will protect their customers information from the prying eyes of security services telecom has announced that they will only be using german servers for all communications inside germany in the future this is something they have said perhaps they would like to roll out to across europe but for now it's only going to be here in germany that information e-mails and phone calls and text messages will only travel on german servers now this comes out following the

revelations of just how much germany was spied on as part of the by the n.s.a. and british secret service is all of this coming out from the the leaks that edward snowden revealed to various media outlets in fact just to sum up how much germany was spied on one leak that was revealed in beagle news magazine in june of this year showed it's around holiday a billion e-mails phone calls and text messages were intercepted in germany in the average month the announcement by the telecoms actually probably prompted all the major operators to say that yes they want to follow suit vodafone among them as well. telefonica said they would also try to roll this out for their customers however there are some that are skeptical of whether it could work due to the the nature of the modern communications however telecom is saying that the term and to protect their customers information from the prying eyes of the spice.

another way for businesses to show confidentiality is to move away from the dot com domain one company taking that reach out on the snowden's revelations in a major malaysian investment firm and i talked to the head of the company about this online alternative. this is. one of the numerous server rooms of the heart of the russian internet the dots are you demain and now these shelves of glowing boxes will have several more as the major malaysian investment firm has decided to relocate its servers into russia becoming the first foreign company to register within the dot are you denying the man running the company sas has done that because of recent revelations by edward snowden which seemingly have not only left high profile politicians like the brazilian president offended but also prompted some businessmen to take practical steps to talk about it we're joined by the president of the majority and partners company mr. thanks for your time and joining

us here my first question why did you choose to move your service to russia not anywhere else in normal company we just think that if we hear. from proof read the world got from mr snowden that certain organizations in the west are listening into medical records of their own citizens and the e-mail traffic of g. mail yahoo hotmail i do believe it's time to say goodbye to dot com and has an excellent service that safe if i have a service which i pay for all i want is good customer service i want safety of my network or my server for this reality congress over the lucian it's time to wake up so the malaysian businessman believes that putting his service into the russians in maine he will feel more safe where that is so lost the people running the russian internet so you can pull off from the center to gate is it really secure is that the really wise move by the malaysians to move the service here we can see it is more secure because. foreign intelligence agencies

for example the u.s. intelligence agencies of course. has. less opportunities to control the equipment that is placed in the russian foreign service they are located for example in great britain in germany. in sweden and intelligence agencies told the united states has more have more cooperation with. these countries than with russia so it's more difficult to control when the equipment is situated just like you did in russia. chris keith see whose company provides encrypted internet service is another entrepreneur who's moved all the friends data to another country he told us earlier how washington's approach to security only fuels users demands for more privilege see really what's happening here is that they have a different strategy instead of targeting the people who they know or suspect of

being terrorists are crossing bad things there they're expecting everyone to be a terrorist and that of course is not true so really what we're doing is we're offering a service that allows people to find the truth i mean really what's happening is people can't they're getting their emails blocked they're getting things censored and this is a way to get through that and get around it and you know most ninety nine point nine percent of the usage on a service like ours is going to be i'd say substantially it's going to be innocent usage so should you shut down ninety nine point nine percent of the world just because point one percent are bad people i don't think so we're actually getting calls from friends of mine who run businesses that store data for large multinational companies consumers are demanding this this is what's driving it's not about just me thinking it's a good idea for marketing or that we're going to find all the fringe paranoid people everybody wants privacy for their data. and the latest revelations which we

report on the website of the n.s.a. is apparently collecting hundreds of millions of e-mails and instant message contacts from users address books plus chat with us on twitter and updates on the constantly unfolding surveillance scandal. live right on the scene lips were struck listen i were being butchered live live on our employers split their live live . right one of the other leading stroy is their security concerns in moscow where thousands of muslims like gathered for one of islams most holy days it marks the end of hardship and the annual pilgrimage chill city of mecca here in aurora show

is also known as coogan byron but it comes a day in the wake of sunday's mess of the ethnic protests in the capital of his granite she joins me now with more details. what should we expect to happen in moscow for this holy festival. both happy i'm standing at the big mosque in moscow thousands of muslims begin the celebration of the holiday here with a prayer a little bit about the holiday car bomb by iran literally means the feast of the sacrifice that he takes place about seventy days after ramadan the holiday commemorate the birth means willingness to sacrifice his son is trying to show his face that mr are lost on this day muslims children sacrifice a sheep or a girl when they give the beach to the poor and share among the family and neighbors as you can imagine not everybody's all right with the sight of animals being killed in their backyard so bosco thirty's gives us testified special

locations farms outside the city where muslims can practice the ritual of sacrifice this year you should be you could also order the sheep at a local mosque three days in advance and you would get it delivered to your door on this day there's a very big muslim unity marching around twenty million people of course the celebrations can just come just days after the riots at moscow's beating over district hundreds of people took to the streets to express their outrage over the killing of a gun man people should back off as well as their rage migrants to the rioters caused havoc at a shopping center and at a local storage facility is still not clear. good lord the problem is but the c.c.t.v. footage shows a man with dark hair in his thirty's seemingly from with parkinson's or central leader it could be most of course it was like these all the brits if not so good here in spirit that laurie hate crimes would follow and russia is not immune to it

so especially with breaches of illegal immigration and other issues we've heard russia's say islamic leaders religious leaders call for the muslim the baby to drill in the resignation of hugo chavez all as much as if you go troubles or hurt as much as they can also they're not to allow themselves to be provoked this or that imagine that in the wake of the riots of moscow security is tight here police forces four thousand people were deployed in the streets of the capital make sure the celebrations are peaceful and safe for the public. and i believe that the word bahrain means celebrations hopefully everyone will enjoy this celebrations today of that day the. damages can be. right there are challenges ahead in destroying syria's chemical weapons the report on a chemical one watchdog which says inspectors are struggling to access rebel

controlled areas plus. putting a price on sunshine desperate for cash as spain's planning to attack solar energy jobs of the break we'll report on the how that caused the cloud over europe's renewable energy target stay with us. old. son technology innovation all the news developments from the around russia we've got this huge earth covered. there's a media lead us so we leave the media. by the seat cushions to the other your party there's a. question is that no one is asking with a guess that you deserve answers from. politics.

right. first street. and i would think that you're. an army but. you're watching r t for more international news the nobel peace prize winning group in charge of destroying syria's chemical arsenal says damascus officials cooperate and giving them access to what ever they want to see that the same can be said about being allowed into some rebel held territories though the head of the organization for the pro prohibition of chemical weapons says the inspectors are

being held back by ongoing fighting and has renewed coals for all sides to cooperate now meanwhile the a bill called valmai in northwestern has killed a least a twenty seven people and wounded many others paul full blast came a day after twenty car bombs struck the syrian capital one via a hotel where the international chemical weapons inspectors were staying they explosions interrupted a lot of iraqi t.v. broadcasts from damascus let's take a look now at the video that emerged online. none . of them a lot of carcinoma so that when i look i said i'm a wiley. because a lot of. dramatic images that you've just seen there showing the

challenges of being inside of syria that was also underlined by the kidnapping of six red cross workers and a volunteer on sunday for them have been released but the others are still in captivity red cross spokesman sean make wire told us no one's making the humanitarian effort any easier on all sides of the conflict there has been a misuse of. of of the the right to humanitarian assistance i think we've seen on all sides of the conflict that medical aid has been denied to people who need it the sick and the wounded. and there are areas being besieged by both the government and opposition forces so we're seeing this sort of denial of the right to humanitarian aid which is which we would be expecting to see

observed we've seen that being denied by both sides by all sides in this conflict. syria's largest opposition group is refusing to take part in the geneva peace talks that are set in motion for a transitional government but he u.s. secretary of state john kerry maintains that the conference needs to be held as soon as possible when all is conflict analyst the more we believe the opposition will not negotiate this time just like before. they've not come to the talks in june which was scheduled for june this year they don't have leadership they don't have a coherent strategy and they did not enjoy any popularity among the civilians or the syrians within syria so. secretary kerry can get anyone from the syrian national council to a turned because they haven't been able to thus far and they're not the americans

have not been the honest brokers in the whole process so i doubt that the talks will be held in november as a result. online we're asking for your thoughts on our war in the nobel peace prize to the chemical watched our tussle with destroying the country's a toxic arms let's just take a look at what you've been saying it's a thought thirty seven percent of you believe it's no surprise that is given and the president obama got one almost the same number think that the nobel committee actually meant to give it to president putin but stop short of doing sir about a fourth of you think of the committee have betrayed the nominees who are defending human rights and only a small number say their people believe this was a right thing to do you have to r.t. dot com and cast your vote. this son of free end of a level to everyone since the dawn of time not any more spain they're planning to

attack said to help plug the yawning debt service report. there's an argument hotting up in spain right now the country still mired in financial difficulty the government's come up with a rather unusual proposal calling for attacks on solar energy with some spanish cities enjoying an average of three thousand hours of sun each year the nation's being one of the leading providers of solar energy the trouble is they're pretty thing so much of the production capacity now exceeds the market by i think the percent and if when the government found itself in that produces to the cina twenty six billion euro so in a bit the scale back the use of solar panels the government decided to attack those who use the you know their way of tackling the very behavior it's been the last decade trying to encourage critics of the proposal say this will damage things

progress towards meeting european renewable energy goals and could set a dangerous precedent for other struggling e.u. countries like greece who are rumored to be contemplating a similar tax explains energy regulator agrees and has called the proposed toll economically viable and discriminatory they've been most blindsided by the idea of people like pedro who invested his money in installing a solar panel in his home. with the new taxes there making it cheaper to buy your energy from the big companies rather than use a power from your panels hardy's that the tax is fair as those using solar energy still require the use of the conventional energy grids and say this tax will contribute to the cost of maintenance but the solar lobby say the new tax will extend the time it takes for solar panels to pay for themselves from eight to twenty five years as the fine that could be levied if people like don't pay up well

that's being set at a mind boggling thirty million euro i already know people who are removing the. protesters say that simply to scare people into submission but as to whether it's working for padre. no. the laws against your rights you have the right to refuse to do with the government tells you i'm going to continue with and i'm not going to be your drugs with such strong resistance across the sunny state spain's government may have a bite on its hands should be left wondering if the proposed tax is such a bright idea after all so if r.t. . possible sunshine tax isn't the only thing getting people in spain hard collar police near law and i have failed to bring it up hundreds of workers at

switzerland will soon vote if they should start giving out thousands of dollars in cash to every adult citizen in the country you heard me right there's a grassroots campaign that is trying to get the government to give out to every adult says a two thousand five hundred swiss francs approximately two thousand eight hundred dollars per month the motivation for the project is that many in switzerland fear that the financial crisis has caused wealth inequality to skyrocket you know i'm not an expert at swiss culture so maybe people there are different but if they gave out thousands of free dollars per month anywhere i've lived you would see the majority of people going into early retirement and not working at all it's sort of like how they tell people not to feed the bears at parks because then the. their instincts and will to hunt because getting a sandwich thrown at them is a lot easier i mean why go through the effort of odd thing when the sandwich just magically appears handouts often creates law according to reuters some people are proposing a much better law for switzerland limiting executive pay to being twelve times higher than that of the lowest paid employee although this point isn't making

headlines it seems like a much better idea because it doesn't to motivate people to be productive and yet it would create almost utopia like levels of wealth equality also if the bosses salary is tied to the employees that a lot of people be getting raises very soon this one to twelve p. ratio is much better than the free swiss francs and it gets my seal of approval but that's just my opinion. rights.
