a warm welcome to you this morning from moscow where it's eight am here with r.t. international in and use it now it good to have you with us. our top story greenland has decided to open up one of the world's most pristine environments to oil drilling and b.p. is already rubbing its hands the company responsible for turning the gulf of mexico into an ecological catastrophe nearly four years ago has been given exploration rights in eastern greenland greenpeace says it beggars belief that a firm with such a checkered history could be allowed to work in such a fragile region. reports on why the country shifted its environment first and. british petroleum has been denied any drilling licenses in the united states for more than a year now the deepwater horizon spill taking its toll on the company's reputation but this mattered little to the new government in greenland drilling an oil exploration off the western coast of the country particularly from the bay has

already been underway for some time by the likes of shell chevron and exxon mobil but b.p. and its partners will now explore the concession in the north east which amounts to thousands of square kilometers some believe there may be a huge reserve of oil there up to one hundred ten billion barrels potentially the largest in the whole of the arctic the decision of greenland leadership is a complete u. turn from what it said only nine months ago when a moratorium on any further drilling was imposed due to environmental concerns the latest move is understood to be tightly connected with greenland strive for independence from denmark for no it's been relying solely on its faltering fish industry and grants from copenhagen but it's also known to have vast reserves of diamonds gold rare metals as well as having the world's second largest reserve of fresh water but clearly it's the black gold which could make greenland both economically and politically independent and the government is happy to have more international oil giants on board to boost these ambitions however not everyone is as thrilled to colleges have already blasted the move pointing at b.p.'s checkered

record describing the arctic environment as very fragile they say that even a minor oil spill in the crystal clear waters of greenland could cause a major disaster b.p. officials say they will take several years to carefully prepare for the challenging exploration work given the intensity of environmentalists criticism it's almost guaranteed that this period will be marked by the protests of those opposed to any drilling in the arctic. well we spoke to greenpeace this arctic campaigner who told us that the risk the authorities are taking are unacceptable. it's very important that the green and the government and the greenlandic population is aware that the risks that they're taking would not only have been my mental consequences but also have if a spill happens when a spill happens have massive consequences for for example the fish resect saying greenland it is just too big a risk to take and the conditions are extremely harsh. like on a collision course almost on a daily basis women can scottish oil company that exploration drillings back in two

thousand and eleven they had to show what we around two hundred icebergs over a period of just a couple of months because they were on a collision course with the oil rig if one of these on spokes on tiller way and actually hits it hits the oil rig there will of course be environmental consequences and at the same time there is no technology to clean up after the spill nazi whether that's because the cold means that you will have to move all all the oil manually there will be no natural degree dacian and you won't be able to use technologies in my mince like the greenlandic ones. it looks like hard up italian fashion he says are turning from designer to discount it just isn't the cash to flash on the high end homegrown tor later we'll tell you why made in china label is in this season. we take you to a big cat sanctuary in sochi as we continue our tour of the winter olympics host

city. a new wave of bombings has ripped through commercial districts of the iraqi capital killing at least twenty people as after the government lost control of the city of fallujah which fell to an al qaeda linked militia which then declared it a breakaway islam like state during the u.s. led war the city with a major pocket of resistance american forces suffered a third of their total faith tallit is there. who fought there thinks the dire security situation was inevitable. i've come a long way since my time in illusion two thousand four years been able to step back and you know i've been involved you know a lot of various efforts here in the united states to help fellow veterans with p.t.s.d. and things like that so i it's it's just it's incredible to see that you know a lot of the rejections that those of us who understood what the war was about at least figured out when we got home coming true now because when you understand the

nature of war as a racket you want to stand the true motivations behind the united states in a very general occupation when you want to stand what kind of puppet government was installed in iraq your stand it was really only a matter of time before this happened. iraqi lawyer so far says the country's prime minister and his cabinet have completely failed to save the country from ruling. he hasn't been able to stop the terrorist act which has been taking the lives of the civilians in mind that he is now accusing the tide there which is somewhere else that being the one who is causing it he is the government is totally incapable of controlling she even by that itself except that the people there are being put and very tight spot because the government is allowing people to go out and beating anybody who comes out in the street or even raising their voices this is really

a tragedy but the problem is not there the problem is that the governments of the world and international media seems to swallow this idea that somehow what is happening is that this is a fight against al qaida when in fact it isn't. well on our website we have a special section dedicated to keeping tally of the violence in iraq especially because human cost also there read up on a former u.s. commanders dire predictions for afghanistan's future he tells us online how the highly contested hamlet helmand province could fall to the taliban this year where they could change the authority of kabul. google glass has a new arrival as another u.s. company under bell's contact lenses powered with nano technology which could revolutionize the wearable computer market get the details that are t. dot com. the suspect. they

welcome back you with r.t. international live from moscow britain's prime minister wants the country to stand up to the e.u. and demand the right to stop paying welfare to new arrivals from abroad his critics say he's rounding for popular support as voters increasingly look further and further right when it comes to immigration u.k. independence party says david cameron is completely misjudging the public mood we've had mass open door immigration in the united kingdom over the past decade it's had problems on schools hospitals infrastructure and pushing down wages in the country that is why he is struggling and he can't find a solution politicians are not listening to people in the streets of or into places around the country go to lincolnshire for example they are telling us that they have difficulties in their community because it's changed now that's not being racist is actually being realistic and listening to those people all that we

suggesting you could be is that anyone who comes to this country has to be able to afford to work here pay taxes and contribute to this country but we have to have a sensible immigration policy which brings the best in and ensures that they stay here and pay for the future of this country in the same way that indigenous people do now leopards might not be the first thing to spring to mind when you think of winter olympics but these big cats are a symbol for sochi two thousand and fourteen for a reason the area is home to the endangered creatures who are fighting tooth and quaters survive parties to bang months i went to see what's being done. still he hunted his results will scavengers persian left his the smallest local wildcats once told these mountains in the caucasus. now the soul of serene elusive and skillful predators and being green introduced to their natural habited

great opportunities just like many other cities across the world rome has its own chinatown as well whole district in the center of the city filled with showing businesses which go way beyond cities to take out anything called shops or even boutiques and chinese walls which have been spreading all around formal casual sporty every size and style of clothes and foot were are presented here and with a price tag sometimes as much as ten times lower than the competition it's flying off the shelves there is nothing to think about here i'm not going to spend my last cash under such i buy chinese stuff yes many good cotton clothes sometimes but i always check the label first and here's the punchline these chinese calls are not made in china anymore the materials are imported yes but since there are assembled here who are just lieschen allows the made in italy stamped on every item something italian companies want changed to finish and he's. off that is

a crock but there we are working extensively on quality and not the. quantity with large quantity and low pay. proved a perfect tactic for the chinese who poured into the bank of italy journal at least one and a half million dollars out of italy to china. our t.v. room. let's take a look at some global headlines for you this hour the opposition syrian council has told a conference in turkey that it won't take part in talks the president also the government other members of the king western backed coalition are expected to decide on monday whether they'll take part in the geneva two meeting talks are scheduled for later this month with the aim of getting the many warring factions in syria to agree to stop fighting after almost three years of violence. there's been a mass protest in the israeli capital by thousands of african migrants angry at a new law that allows the government send them to desert jails it wasn't like

going to sell. shares are not saying no cute things are more depressing than looking into the. wrong they're especially when it's not by choice but by circumstance is there a global solution to the poverty maybe not but luckily for sure we have. poverty persist why are the poor poor and the rich richer over half of the world lives on less than two and a half dollars a day children have no chance caught in this cycle below the poverty line what does it take to tackle poverty can a rising tide lifts all boats kind of to empower and to encourage we speak to

a poverty pioneer who began with faith and a few dollars for. our guest today is a homage you know snuggle peace prize winner the pioneer of micro finance to financial strategy that's lifted millions out of poverty mr yunus first of all let me start by saying that we're really glad to have you on our program today and i'm just going to go ahead and start with a question that all of our viewers are asking so how soon can worst pay back their dept to your bank is there a risk of being indebted for life to your bank for example. in the bank. to repay the loan is chosen by the board or she could paid back in one month you can pay back in six months whatever she decides or two years is flexible but the can not conventionally we didn't most of the borrowers like the end will cycle within a one year in a week to the stallman you pay back your loan and then you borrow another one and

continue to do that. but what happens and it's not a question of getting into debt burden but what happens if you cannot pay the housing there's no question of oh it's up to her if she said i cannot pay back we didn't fifty two weeks of the one year and i need a few weeks weeks more rescheduling as long as she wants to pay we have no problem we're not here to punish her for the time period we're here to help her so that she can use the money and earn enough money because these are all income generating loan in other words you invest in something which will generate income and you pay back the bank instantly have some money left for you out of your income so it's time period is not a big concern for us it's up to you and if you say well i thought i'll pay back in six months but then i in the fifth monday found out that i'll need more time then six months you say it and we reschedule it for another whatever number of months you need because after all you're paying back we have no grudge against.
