has been raised during the latest round of talks on iran's disputed nuclear program in geneva this is tehran's accused of france of blackmail at what's seen as a crucial stage of negotiations with six world powers after a decade long deadlock there had been a hope of a deal but that now appears diplomats have hit a stumbling block or these tests are syria will join us later in the hour with the latest details from geneva robert horan i's a journalist and political analyst basin strasberg things france a position on a deal maybe being influenced by the interests of other players. as they seek to take an extreme position all the time and there are a number of reasons for this is the first is that they all play called bad cop with the americans so by me being much more reasonable in these attitude with the iranians the french are out there on the flank saying oh you must agree too easily israel must be protected and so on and in a sense that's if you like. playing the game the american said so that they could

stop these events not reasonable there is not a sack to choose that everybody knows the illness pressure of the israel lobby in america it's not quite so well it's pretty pretty considerable in france as well. and a boss us lobby from iran semi official fars news agency things france is sabotaging a deal with iran to score points in the region. france has good relations with israel france help israel to complete building the plants of dimona on the other hand france is having good relations with the arab cons in the region so in this case countries that is the. opposing any deal with iran. france can enjoy the difference between israel and add up countries with the us to strengthen in ties its ties with those concerts let's take a closer look at the deal negotiators were trying to put together first according

to some sources the six world powers want iran to halt all activities to a new about twenty percent they could then permit enrichment at a level below weapons a great iran would also be obliged to limit the number of centrifuges they'd uses them as also reportedly include more intrusive monitoring of tehran's atomic facilities in return world powers would unfreeze some of iran's assets in foreign banks plus the west would reportedly consider easing sanctions that have crippled the iranian economy catherine ashton your id and foreign minister currently delivering a news conference as we mentioned earlier will be joined by our correspondent later for latest updates. giant step for the sochi two thousand and fourteen winter games the olympic torch has taken been taken on its first ever space walk as part of a record breaking relay artie's lindsey france has more from mission control. well it's a very exciting thing to watch live here because what we're actually getting to see

right now is down on the floor the engineers are essentially walking the cosmonauts through the steps of making it all the way around the international space station with the torch in hand so it's again. it's his fourth spacewalk and sergei reason ski it's his first now of course the torch has been in space before once for the one thousand nine hundred six olympics once for the two thousand and six but this time in space it's actually going on a space walk it's not just inside of a shuttle or inside of the eye is that this so it was a big moment here when we actually saw the torch come out of the hatch attached to the cost minutes and make its appearance out in space the symbol of unity and sportsmanship being seen all over the world now the torch has a couple more days left on the i assess before it heads back down to earth with a three person crew on a soyuz spacecraft again and so it's then going to rejoin this historic relay to

saatchi for that kick off in february of the olympics so we will be bringing you all the live developments of the olympic torch right here on r.t. . we spoke to the governments who carried the symbol of the games into orbit you can go to the video on our website or to dot com and of course we'll continue to update you on the torch a journey when it comes back to earth and continues its way across the world's biggest country all the highlights live arctic. the limpid torch is on its epic journey to such. a one hundred twenty three days. through two hundred cities of russia. really fourteen thousand people or sixty thousand killings. in a record setting trip by land air and sea motors made. a living torch relay. m r t.

thousands of drones may soon be swarming across u.s. airspace but mostly be used for civil purposes such as firefighting and weather tracking but their presence is still causing concern among many let's take a look at the states from above now we're going to show you some yellow dots here on the board each one of those represents a plane currently traveling in u.s. airspace as you can see it's already a very crowded picture in all around ninety thousand planes zip around the country each day so what will happen when even more unmanned aircraft join these very friendly skies or he's got into takes a look. according to the u.s. federal aviation administration by twenty twenty there will be up to thirty thousand drones flying in the u.s. airspace not just by law enforcement and other government agencies but also by private firms all kinds of probe says to the f.a.a. game itself two years to come up with ideas on how to regulate that brave new world where everybody can fly their throw their designated six test sites across the

country to see how it goes aside from very serious might we see concerns there is the danger of media air collisions even now as the government has not yet allowed the commercial use of drones the f.a.a. is getting a rising number of safety complaints from pilots in march of this year and all the tali airliner made national news headlines when the pilot reported spotting a drone as he was trying to land at new york's j.f.k. airport back then the f.a.a. and the f.b.i. have open investigations into finding the drone the plane was flying over densely populated area when he brushed shoulders with a dro to the horror of the pilots of course or in a separate incident in the indianapolis five hundred body. to load him in the opposite direction at a high speed. just to give you an idea of how concerned pilots are one pilot said we're concerned about birds we're concerned about other airplanes and now we're throwing in something totally uncontrolled when they suck one of those drones into

the engine of an airplane he said then it will get everybody's attention and one of the challenges is that drones occasionally loose connection with the operator on the ground that so well reported problem but apart from accidental collisions there is another challenge drones can be hijacked by someone with very bad intentions so the brave new world of drones can also turn out to be a very dangerous one in washington i'm going to check on our. one man's loss could be another's gain is china sees opportunity in the arab spring in europe or on beijing's economic charging to the middle east and north. africa a region left for the taking by crisis and violence plus not exactly a royal welcome in a outlawed political party throwing rotten tomatoes at the dutch king on a visit to moscow to find out what got them so hot under the collar plus. eighty six gorgeous women in the russian capital vying for the miss universe title but only one gets the crowd and find out who was proclaimed queen still to come.

archie dot com is launching a special project to mark the appalling scale of violence in iraq. we want you to know. dramas the truth be ignored. stories others refuse to notice. faces change the world.

so picture of today's you know. from roads to blow. job to. thanks for staying with us ten minutes past the hour now cyber thieves have pull for more than a million dollars in digital money from an online bitcoin storage service hackers breached the host by manipulating flaws in the system that authenticates users the incident has raised more concerns about the security of the online cyber currency bitcoin is a digital currency stored on computers and anonymous so-called web wallets that could be used for online transactions are sold for any conventional currency but banks middlemen and tax agencies all left out of the loop reducing fees but a lack of control also means that the victims of thefts have nowhere to turn for

compensation and also the usual policing methods of collecting evidence and questioning witnesses is less effective against online theft despite its drawbacks though entrepreneur william uhc still thinks bitcoin is a canny investment. what we see today in the world was a lie or crisis in greece and in the failure of cyprus is regulation doesn't work. you have regulatory can't assure you just have a system failure and the thing that makes a big point exciting for people believe a bit quiet is the fact that it's an emergent system if it does require regulation to survive it really wasn't as good as we talk about. the dutch king's visit to moscow market after two members of the bad national bolshevik party pelted him with rotten tomatoes the incident comes as a cat a complicated time for both countries as their relations significantly cooled of late forty's paul scott reports well a further unsavory incident putting go further pressure on already strained

relations between the two countries now the dutch king and his wife were attending a music concerts in moscow when two men through what appeared to be tomatoes at them they were unharmed and did carry on with their official engagements now the two men who were arrested were members of the national bolshevik party which is actually banned here in russia and they could be heard saying as they carried out the assault the couple had the blood of alexander domata on their hands now don't matter of was a former member of the party who committed suicide was in dutch custody after being denied political asylum in the country and as i say the incident comes with relations already strained between the two countries the netherlands are actually suing russia at the moment for the detention of thirty greenpeace activists who were onboard the arctic sunrise vessel now following that incident a russian diplomat was beaten up in his home in the hague and then taken to a police station with no official explanation the dutch government later apologized for that incident that was followed by an incident which saw

a dutch diplomat beaten up in his home in moscow by masked intruders the russian government apologized and said that they would hunt down the perpetrators of the attack now there's no connect connection between those events and today's incident but it's just further. proof and the signs really that relations between the two countries continue to be strained reports in the u.s. suggest the ca's been paying millions of dollars a year to american telecom giant eighty and t. for that price the company allegedly provides access to information on millions of subscribers spies can apparently browse through their phone records database including international calls germany and brazil submitted a draft resolution to the u.n. on the safeguarding of privacy and restricting mass surveillance journalist david seaman says the cia is violating the u.s. constitution. it's a huge company that has its footprint all over the globe and they're just being paid to hand out this customer information is a clear violation of the fourth amendment and customers have nowhere to go because i'm sure he is not alone in this sort of practice why are they tracking the

communications of private citizens who have no connection to crime or terrorism what is their real goal here if this is a form of i think a light form of terrorism where people are becoming afraid to use their own technology in their own devices it's really it's kind of orwellian and the explanation they gave for it doesn't make a lot of sense to me and u.k. stands accused of being engaged in a high stakes game of hide in the spook british officials are blocking in that occasion into data gave their data gathering activities with spy chiefs maintaining the probe would undermine national security more on that on line plus. astronomers make heads or tails of a new space discovery a six tailed objects spotted by a nasa telescope flying about our solar system check out all the details that are. right. first rate. and i think that your.

orders. in the. back to the breaking news on the hour's top story here on our talks on iran's nuclear program have broken up with no agreement yet let's go live to geneva switzerland artie's tessera cilia is alive with all the latest details such as that we understand there were some a stumbling block some obstacles to progress here give us some of the details. well indeed there were the three days of talks here high level talks at a started off with a lot of optimism had ended with essentially no deal so we know that the nature of these talks were very important in the sense that the ministers who were here in

town had dropped it changed their schedules in order to come here enjoy these talks with a lot of speculation is that a deal might be reached but it didn't come to pass five you said the foreign minister of france was one of those really was vocal about his reservations on be initial text presented. in detail one of those the rest of the nations would be the soft. of iran as well as the reactor that's scheduled to open sometime next year in iran he said he was not satisfied that he wanted something an agreement that was serious and also he had said something like he was not ready to get involved in a kong game and this had angered lawmakers in iran they were saying that flouncy really was hindering the talks and had blamed france even calling it blackmail on terror but what's interesting is when the e.u. foreign policy chief catherine ashton as well as a foreign minister of iran had come in here to give their press conference they

were kind of upbeat and they were hopeful about the next round of talks scheduled for november the twenty third said that he was disappointed and that he understood that something like this there were definitely there will definitely be differences among the different parties involved but really it had taken quite a different turn from what was expected when we were hearing statements coming from foreign ministers of the u.k. william hague. seize the moment and trying to come up with a very elusive deal but in the end indeed there is no deal that has been reached but again talks will be rescheduled november the twentieth right and everybody waits for the next round. live for us in geneva thanks very much for that update. well despite the turmoil in many post arab spring states chinese investors still doing brisk business in the middle east and north africa well u.s. and european investors seem to stay on the sidelines beijing's businessmen are taking these countries by economic storm as artie's belcher reports even crisis

rocked egypt there are opportunities to be found. this is north cairo where egypt's burgeoning chinatown has now planted its roots restaurant owner. says the chinese community here is thriving despite the political turmoil. most chinese come here for study were to call you muslim chinese minorities i opened my restaurant recently i know the political situation here is difficult but it doesn't affect chinese businesses it's a good place to live as us egypt relations soured after american officials with the help keep the military and economic assistance in october egypt has hinted at cozying up to other super powers like china and the list say to china it's more about its political expansion gaining clout with one of the region's main players rather than finance we have sixty three agreements i mean different kinds of cultural political egypt is central country in the arab region and

it is very useful to have good relations developing relations with us because we have a say in the region. of the chinese embassy in cairo says although two thousand and thirteen was a turbulent year for egypt the country's exports to china increased by a staggering one hundred thirteen percent we are very happy to see this figure we tried to make more efforts. to reach the. one billion very small egypt's economy which hard heavily relied on its terrorism market has taken a pounding after two and a half years of revolution and regime change and with cairo and washington and loggerheads it looks like egypt might keep looking eastwards. boccieri r.t. kind. my colleague ivan owen talked about china as a resource hunger with multi-millionaire investor and author jim rogers who says beijing's playing finder's keepers across the world. china is trying to secure

natural resources all over the world africa south america central asia himself said the beijing success is build on washington's failures what do you think. well certainly if you look around the world you will certainly see there's a lot of truth to that the chinese have more or less. they're all over africa there by plantations and everything you know as america's got very low presence in africa now time is making inroads in the middle east and it's going to get a lot of oil from iran going forward it looks as though china may even start getting oil from iraq you know america says that they were a liberated iraq in the end it may be the chinese who get the oil and the rest of the middle east has helped push up international oil and gas prices max kaiser looks at how it may be the consumers who ultimately suffer. many demonstrators staged

a bonfire night burning of energy bills to voice their opposition to rising cost of fuel burning their energy bill is like burning your draft card you know during the vietnam war they burned their their draft cards burning your energy bill is similar in that you don't want to join up forces with the corrupt big six energy companies in the u.k. their financial terrorism so if you don't want to support financial terrorism of the big six energy companies here in the u.k. you would burn your energy bill i said just get a thousand people on the millennium bridge here in london to get together and burn their energy bill in unison. to some other global headlines this hour the red cross here is up to twelve hundred people have been killed as typhoon haiyan swept across the philippines the worst hit areas have been tacloban on and some are island one in four million people affected by the storm considered one of the largest ever to make landfall the typhoon now headed toward vietnam where thousands of people have already been

remember way back when we first talked about the first downloadable guns that could be printed out on a free d. printer at home while technology moves pretty quickly because british police are already busted in legal armory pretty out firearm parts and special three d. printers this technology may make gun control literally impossible in the same with the banning and burning books has become futile and the best they used to be able to just burn books or forbid them from being printed but in the age of the internet all you need is a scanner and an internet connection and the in from. that's found in a book cannot be destroyed because it is out there on the magical ether of the air at so basically the near future any person with even half a brain and some patients can start making guns in their basement which means the gun control laws will basically become pointless because they'll never be able to catch all the people doing it no will be able to take the guns not even obama or

the hardest of hardcore liberals this technology could be the best thing to happen to the second amendment ever fascist my opinion. in the world. usually more than fifteen thousand years old this one dates back twenty five mins. water in the lake is helping scientists unravel the mysteries of the universe. i try to see by cal in its entirety. it's not that i have discovered something new here rather that i absorb everything that this place offers.

the spirit. the. technology innovation. developments around russia we. covered. all i want to. say to get something that is quite simply. was no way oh. clearly they were just at the wrong place at the wrong time. and sold to the u.s. and turned over to the u.s. for. the sole that could be buried alive. was saved with great over. and they wanted to turn me into a terrorist so it was they wanted me to admit that i was

a member of al qaeda or taliban or that i fought with them. about time i didn't even know what al-qaeda is nevertheless there are people all. raving of the start of fighting age. something is going to be done that's going to be done by me and it's been a short amount of time to do it but it's going to impact me i'll be prosecuted but it's not going to impact. the wife my daughter. the one time or trapped monarchy. but if they realise at some point the goal of all my work and life was nothing more than about making money ask quickly as possible this would let's see what it was all for i couldn't say i was an editor for a glossy magazine at the time of the ok so i can buy another fur coats or

a new car or even an apartment so what i'm thirty four i don't have a man whom i would like to start a family with yet i knew then it was time to stop drop it all and try to find myself to be our. mates if i wanted waking up in the morning and go into why. i came across an advertisement s.o.s. villages for kids are looking for mothers. i was thrilled when i saw it i had to write a letter to the director and i spent half a day of my computer at home alone trying to find words to describe what i felt. could convince him that i was the mom they were looking for and they had to call me immediately.
