israel's prime minister heads to moscow to convince russia that iran should not be trusted. to make yet another push to reach a nuclear agreement with. a new round of talks with iran and switzerland hopes that a new deal could be for me to say in just a few moments. nato prepares for a series of unprecedented massive war games in process of keeping troops rather busy after they withdraw from afghanistan. i don't see investigates how japan's mafia is reportedly making money from the cleanup of the fukushima nuclear station providing an exploited workers to do the dirty work.

from all of us here in moscow welcome to the program today. headlines for this hour israel's prime minister is heading right here to moscow it's a mission to prevent any progress during iran's nuclear negotiations with world powers a new round of three day talks with tehran begins in geneva today and many open schools remain before hopes of a breakthrough become a reality a short while ago i spoke with our. prime minister netanyahu will be arriving in moscow for a shorter trip he will be meeting with russia's president in terms of iran's nuclear program mr netanyahu has been very very open in terms of how he feels about of that deal that's been presented to iran he said that it is exceedingly bad so

what is the deal at the moment the p five plus one are offering iran and the chance to curb east some of those sanctions that have been put on them by holding their nuclear program. the round table told a curve ball last week when he came around and said that it will not vote for that deal the deputy foreign minister of iran said that no one including israel should dictate what world leaders at the p five plus one meeting a should say yes. some nations have such relations with tel aviv that they are influenced by their influence by the atmosphere that's been created around iran for the five plus one countries which are holding talks with iran it is unbecoming when some of them or indeed one specific nation is being influenced by tovey is probably cations brushes the president has said quite clearly that this is the time to to

talk about this deal to put it on the table and let it be done we know that david cameron in the u.k. has called mr rouhani saying that let's take this opportunity to see something happen after ten years of these stalled talks there isn't obama he's also been trying to hold the congress of from pushing on with more sanctions against iran than we have the i.e. any who said that since august iran has not continued to expand its nuclear program it is up to israel now where we have to see how the talks go of course and if an agreement is made well we'll have to see how israel reacts to that and earlier i spoke to former french prime minister dominique de villepin he believes if a deal is not agreed israel could strike against iran rather soon. the question is how much are we ready to take the risk to sign the agreement and i think

to assess the importance of this agreement we must understand that it is a process of course we are not going to get the final agreement from scratch on wednesday but we can surely deploy ourselves of an agreement with and into memory of agreement and then we can progress and have a final agreement that would be better so i think it's a chance and we should take it it is the interest of the region because this will have strong consequences on the situation in syria on the situation in lebanon or on the peace process so this may change completely the dynamic of the region for good on the contrary if we don't sign the agreement if we don't take all the chances to sign this agreement we may have the strong consequences and we may face is strike in iran coming from israel. joining us here on r.t. today nato may be gradually withdrawing from afghanistan but the alliance is making

sure its troops are kept busy elsewhere officials say military exercises on an unprecedented scale will take place in europe over the coming years now the latest war games held on russia's borders with poland in the baltic republics involved six thousand troops but that figure will be dwarfed by upcoming drills in spain and portugal where a force of more than forty thousand soldiers should be assembled by twenty fifteen now the u.s. led bloc says this will be the first in a series of such exercises are designed to make sure the allies keep working closely together peter all of our reports there's a little appetite in europe for this costly military deployment. european nations can and should. do more to match america's commitment that commitment is said to see upwards of forty thousand troops deployed on maneuvers within the e.u. in the coming years all in port and work for the future of the alliance once the

combat mission in afghanistan is over the question is how can you retain these operational experience and capabilities and so you must exercise you must train your forces you must test whether the old routines work the command structure works but the troops are interoperable. is a former east german security officer turned author to spending a career watching nato during the cold war he isn't buying the reason given that this is all part of the winding down of operations in afghanistan we have or oh there isn't any need to put these troops in europe i think they would have ramped up operations even if it wasn't coming to an end. that's down to what he sees as a change in nato policy following actions in libya and towards syria. well nourished and sort of a defensive army they want to make an army of intervention of aggression made it

was responsible for three quarters of global arms spending at a time when many of its members are far broke here in central berlin a group of demonstrators on furlough banners saying no to wars of intervention but with many european economies still far from recovery there's a lack of enthusiasm for spending more than the military does decent maneuver it's crazy to think that this has anything to do with a new rogue state by holding operations in europe it shows natal still looks towards russia. under three years that in the toy of the population is getting poorer and war is getting more expensive this time i prefer the sizes i throw to society. they want politicians to pay attention to the real cost of military spending peter all over r.t. . the mountain of debt and austerity in european countries means they've been

steadily slashing defense spending in the aftermath of the wars in afghanistan and libya the appetite for military deployments are certainly increased within the military industrial complex but as artie's guy nature can reports the u.s. led bloc may still be prepared to pay the cost of putting yet more boots on the ground in europe. u.s. troops are supposed to be out of afghanistan by the end of next year that's around sixty thousand troops the military leadership is already thinking about how to keep them busy nato with its heart and mind in washington of course plans to sharply increase the size of its exercises in europe in coming years we're lucky to have douglas macgregor retired u.s. army colonel with us today thanks so much for coming through so the plan for europe for twenty fifteen nato has is war games with forty thousand troops in portugal and spain. these countries of course will have to chipping to make it happen that's

a huge expense for their better the economies what's what's the origins whatever nato conducts exercises of any kind there's always a great deal of time and money invested in what i would call a large solidarity and i know there is great concern about the troubled nature of the economies particularly on the iberian peninsula in portugal and spain i think we want to reaffirm the or close members of the alliance that we are behind the that we support them and what better way to do that than to conduct an exercise free will in their grasp and a lot of money grow much of it is money's already budgeted more than half the troops will probably be air and naval forces so they have to conduct a certain number of operations one way or the other there's already discussions on how nato. future there are so proud of what they did in libya it seems that they see their future in this kind of hit and run operations but what do you think about it libya was not

a success we ultimately unleashed forces in that country sunni islamic forces that are edgy western. american and ultimately antithetical to the interests of libya's future social and political development we don't know how libya will turn out but nato sees it as a success so that's the message that sample for each operation is it that is a public message and truth. there were enormous problems with the operation how do you see the future of nato i think it's it's very questionable over time it's going to be harder and harder to hold the alliance together and so i don't see the nato alliance holding together in its current form for another decade or maybe these exercises are not such a bad idea maybe it is for a while nato will not actually bomb and invade other countries to keep itself busy with me in washington colonel douglas macgregor and i'm going to step down here watching our team. and i want to form a german intelligence officer told r.t.

that nato is eager to keep flexing its military muscles in order to remind the competition that it's still a force to be reckoned with you have to see this against the background of the beast rule from afghanistan and there they didn't need military exercises because the could there interoperability and everything on the ground but. now with the need to countries especially united states leaving afghanistan beaten like a dog with a tube between its legs they need to project i'm sure with the word that these two got their claws sharpened and teeth drawn all this is part of the continued of power projection of intimidating. nations that don't follow voted terribly the u. is for european lead it's all it's a lot for moscow japan's mafia reportedly cashing in on the fukushima disaster by

running the cleanup efforts at the damaged nuclear plant workers complain of being understaffed and mistreated by contractors you think nothing of throwing them into the high risk areas of high radiation. chefs he has this report from japan. as if clearing out the dangerous debris in the aftermath of japan's worst natural disaster in a century was not tough enough this form of fukushima worker says he's having to see you with a firm which hired him i was out of work after the tsunami so when a job offer at fukushima came up i took it they promised a lot of money even signed a long term contract but they suddenly terminated it not even being me a third of the promises do you have a feeling that you were mistreated absolutely we were given no insurance for health risks no radiation meters even we were treated like nothing like disposable people promise things and then kick us out when we received our large radiation dose this

young man volunteered to jump into nuclear hell to make a living many others though were forced so claims investigative journalist. who went undercover to fukushima filming with the camera hidden in his watch he discovered that many of the workers were brought in by the infamous underworld syndicate the young so this is. at fukushima. in japan and quite often when a certain construction project requires an immediate workforce in large numbers bosses make a phone call to the yeah so it was the case with fukushima the government called tepco to take an agent action tepco relayed it to subcontractors and they eventually as they had a shortage of available workers called the yeah could sell for help there was a rhythm. but fukushima is no ordinary construction site the workers drawn to the power plant by the young kids or mostly with gambling debts to the organization or family obligations often had absolutely no idea what they were dealing with.

they were given very general info about radiation and most were not even given radiation meters they could have exposed themselves to large doses without even knowing it even the so called fukushima fifty the first group of workers sent there immediately after the disaster at least three of them were enrolled by the. suzuki published details of what he says is solid evidence but tepco officials remain defined that any mistreatment or organized crime involvement is taking place and we're doing everything to ensure our workers operate in safe conditions we also deal harshly with law while eating subcontractors but the company and its subcontractors already short of hands there are twenty five percent more openings for jobs at fukushima plant than applicants according to government data gaps filled says suki by the homeless the desperately unemployed and even those with mental disabilities there are no exact figures as to how many people are involved in the fukushima clear up operation but rough estimates suggest that this may be up

to a quarter of a million people and with experts saying that it may take another forty years to completely liquidate the aftermath of the disaster it's really hard to imagine how many more workers will be involved in this dangerous line of duty and more importantly how many of them will feel disposable and expendable once their jobs and. reporting from japan. just a couple of minutes away here on our blessing or a curse all of it anger at the level of immigration inside the united kingdom there at r.t. well look at how much the newcomers are actually bringing to the country's economy that story and the rest of the world's top headlines for this hour just around the corner. since the start of the arab spring there have been hopes of change and the creation of a better future sadly this is not been the case would be

pull together and in the region that is heavily focused on syria and now iran hezbollah off course being an ally of these two and the iranian embassy attack i think we have to look at in light of what's going on the region of i love been an easy target it just simply doesn't have a strong national army that is defending its borders it's a vulnerable state it's obviously a lot easier to move around than iran would be these are attempts to strike at a vulnerable proxy. or ally of iran and syria. will be just a few minutes from now here on ars he paid labelling as guests and cross-talk the whole lot of them debating the role of foreign forces much to be suspected for continuing to fuel the syrian conflict. now the opposition which is riven internally fractured is now depending upon its patrons and saudi arabia to attack assad's allies for instance in lebanon today the bombing syria has pointed the

finger at saudi arabia. america wants iran out of the peace negotiations but really the country that has this war that is the core the cause of the instability is saudi arabia and it's it's absurd that's how the arabia is our ally in this region they're going to really regret this one day if not already been funneling all these people foreign nationals into a civil war everyone why did we call a revolution and now it's a proxy war which is taking the lives of a lot of people that do not like these foreigners in their country this is i'm glad you mentioned lebanon earlier because this is what it's going to get down to in my opinion a partition go ahead joseph. you know that i mean i'm in a kind of funny situation as an israeli to intervene between that and in saudi arabia to decide to start that what they have doesn't matter anymore look it she was as they call it to me said that she's and live in lebanon and syria have become

immigration new arrivals or people having babies when they settle for the figures put into question prime minister david cameron said of reducing the gratian to be tens of thousands by the end of this parliament now those who are against immigration always go back to the argument that more people means more pressure on the social welfare system of the u.k. however contrary to popular belief another study says that those because who would come here since two thousand actually contributed more in taxes than claimed benefits. is a very emotional. few. uncertainties and it's identifying somebody who may be responsible for the economic situation in which many people find themselves very often receive evidence given in terms of it's so important to look at the overall number which is when we look at the.
