the word from these radio me however is that they are all greedy for a ground offensive but that ultimately this is a political decision. for all to headquarters. and we do this with all of the week's big news stories in about ten fifteen minutes not before but couple of ok people be here with more the business. isn't done this same logic that the united states pursued in afghanistan you know from army relatively unknown to graft if they were to soviet that's was good enough for the united states and look what happened a couple of years down the line again the problem with american policy is a lack of staying power after the soviet union left afghanistan the united states essentially forgot about afghanistan that the pakistanis moved in to fill the void with the taliban that led to the growth of all with all the subsequent consequences

this was in the critique of pulling out of iraq as well. it's like you know when the bullets to start. because it's like. so it's almost like there's a the blue and then you just see the big sounds like a base. welcome to venture capital with me casey fielding this week we've come to the halls of the most financial center to talk about the recent tensions surrounding the global. banking industry we've also got coming up on the show our in-house investor

12:18 pm
banker on birds of the air thank you for joining me today some a rather glorious moscow would be ok do tell me we can have a bit of a stroll i think is the u.s. alienating itself or is it right to be enforcing such huge fines the european banks and actually all the banks in the world. start the u.s. dollar you know they have just no choice they have to apply it to avoid on one hand to their home rules or regulations. because the speech. was involved as well and on the other hand they have to avoid to respect the international order the u.s. regulations in all in this case you know it was something which was. unrelated so it's a very is interfering by the u.s. side because obviously it is a separate culture isn't it to suppress countries so all you can see all of the most important is interfering but on the other hand it is their own currency yeah so as long as you use you know this is a national currency. the central bank or federal reserve has in its alright for the
12:19 pm
side of things as it won't be goes its own currency so this is the funny thing with the u.s. dollar is that on one hand it's the u.s. currency on each has to. work as a country rules and policy and currency point that's it yeah and all the other hand it is the currency of the world and is that the problem i do think with a very reliant on the u.s. dollar could we see a backlash towards the dollar if it bought a number of economists are saying that definitely you know trade should be made in all the currencies and not just the u.s. dollar not a french finance minister didn't he the rebalance the thing we have here there but president putin did say that a few years ago already and i think he's trying with the brics countries and to have these kind of alliance with china on to trade already and between different countries already in yuan or in russian ruble or in the indian rupee now what about european companies because some heads of french companies for example have been
12:20 pm
questioning why is the rest are against them us as opposed to the u.i. design we see that's why the euro was introduced in the past right but emission national contracts you can use the currency we see that you won't if you want to use euro you can the problem is that it's. first of all the certain you know commodities especially oil and gas are basically linked to the dollar bills and and that's a this is international trade these may change over time obviously about you know you have the gulf and the gulf countries first of all their own currency is pegged to the u.s. dollar so it's basically almost exactly following the u.s. dollar so you know and they are the large by far if you take the u.a.e. and saudi arabia that are just oil produced in the world all the countries also oil producing mexico and venezuela very much into the u.s. as well so some some things you know like this will probably remain for for a long time now however. so there will be people say the reason fights you know
12:21 pm
among countries to sort of a number of countries want to get away from the u.s. dollar and the u.s. general you know more so than a union pollers is becomes more a jew political aspect than just the financial is a political tool to think the us uses that as well each country you know is using its own tools to influence the others ok that to the u.s. as well tools. in the richest country in the world by phone all right on out the clock thank you very much indeed for joining me today from the free center of the moscow financial. and to king of global banking well the powers the five nations brazil russia india china and south africa aidid in brazil for the eve of the summit a message to finalize the details of the development bank now we've got a fairy i missed so call scotties in the country just now for

a stop to tell me what do i expect tases and what is on the agenda this week for the first is the development bank or the brics bank as it's going to be basically this is going to be a war chest for times of crisis is going to protect the five countries on their economies is going to act as a buffer if there is a future financial global crisis on the second part is the stabilization fund which is going to help support the emerging economies it's going to be seen as an alternative a rival if you like to the i.m.f. and the world bank let's talk about facts and figures because this new bank this new brics bank is going to have one hundred billion u.s. dollars in reserve and forty one billion of those are going to be provided by china eighteen billion will be provided by russia india and brazil h well south africa will provide five been good. and i suppose the burning question has to be do we need this bank or the fact of the matter is that the emerging. economies are

know we just put major russian companies up here it could be also the fact that a lot of the really really big and reliable companies trade and the more medium and small sized companies really don't so maybe the selection in russia is a little bit more reliable i don't know. i can say thank you very tame cat. and next week it is time for me to say goodbye from the financial hub of the last day well the fine until apps in and trading takes place get by scenically. when people talk about human rights violations you should evolve some pro western protesters getting beaten up in response with mainstream media is usually to bomb
12:28 pm
somebody somewhere so good thing they haven't picked up a story from detroit that the un is calling a human rights violation residents of the motor city or sadly the motor city who are hundred fifty dollars or more behind in their water bills are getting their water shut off completely the water and sewage department is five billion dollars in debt and that is the justification to crack down on deadbeats on the surface the seems like an open and shut case of course everyone has the right to water especially detroit which is near a huge bodies of fresh water that other cities could only dream of but on the other hand if the poor don't pay for water then us taxpayers will be paying for it for them and that's not fair i think this is not so much a case of a right to water but a right to disemployment and a corruption free city government back when people in detroit had good salaries and a government that wasn't flagrantly corrupt they would have any problems paying for their water bills but that's just my opinion.
