g. twenty summit. it seems the word unprecedented is written all over this g. twenty summit it is unprecedented that the leaders of the united states and russia have no official meetings during this summit is unprecedented that the leader of the host nation says that a political and diplomatic issue must be included into the agenda of economic summit and it's also greece attended that the goal of dinner last night which is usually about enjoying the dinner having a course of business talk among themselves the world leaders or obviously involved in discussions about syria this is something we have received as a confirmation from the spokesperson of the russian president who said indeed that they will just talk mostly about syria and the last for more than five hours that is twice longer that was originally expected so obviously there was some heated debate inside the constancy of the palace we of course know nothing and of what exactly was said at the table because there were no cameras there it was str

g. twenty summit. well as much as everyone wants to think that this summit was primarily meant to focus on economical situation in the world of course the political overtones are unavoidable unavoidable in the light of the latest syria developments obviously all the g twenty countries and we're talking about ninety percent of world's economy here at this summit will be talking about syria will have some sort of joint statement coming out of the summit as a result but the biggest intrigue obviously is whether there will be any direct communication between the president of russia and his u.s. counterpart obviously it's no secret to anyone that the relations between washington and moscow have hit something of a new law over the last several weeks and. it's unprecedented in fact that bush and obama have no official meeting scheduled during the summit here they were meant to have a meeting in moscow but obama refused to come because russia granted political asylum to edward snowden and obviously it will be

summit for showdown as g twenty leaders meet in st peter's. top of the agenda is obama's drive to strike syria his coalition of the willing is weak and divided. staunchly against any military strike be remembered as a last step before still another disastrous western intervention in the arab world . more than a century later this is yet to be. what is its place in the world well. joined by miss universe two thousand and twelve. thank you very much for your time. how would you define beauty. beauty is defined by something that is not only outward i really think that being beautiful is making other people feel whatever way you can and i think that you can achieve just by being pretty. you can give to others.

g. twenty summit that's getting underway in st petersburg today. now it may be political crunch time at this year's g. twenty summit but as always finance won't be far behind aside from the usual talk of crisis and unemployment leaders are expected to discuss tax evasion a new world bank and forge fresh economic alliances ok pilgrim from marty's venture capital program isn't seen but his work with more on what's to be explored. job creation that's one of the central themes we know this to two hundred million people across the globe still searching for work seventy three million of those are use we know in the likes of spain and greece wanting to use are looking for jobs that's really a central theme going on here and the implications of that because as we know it's already a witness social unrest in certain parts of the world to do with the fact that people can't find what's not is a big problem and that goes along with the theme of growth long term growth but the problem is the emerging economies a day are suffering right now there's been a role r

g. twenty with a war already described as the worst humanitarian disaster in modern history amid deep division at the summit over america's war plan without un for mission. and nationals in security agencies how britain and the u.s. have been waging an undercover war on internet encryption and digital scrambling as fresh leaks show they can't hack into even the most protected systems. this is r.t. coming to you live from moscow i'm marina joshie welcome to the program a kind of wing travels have attacked and christian village in syria home to one of the world's oldest monasteries the army has responded and secured much of the settlement but residents say radical opposition fighters have seen as nearby hills and are firing indiscriminately at the community our correspondent in damascus refinishing reports. i tried to go to my little village shortly after we heard that the clashes erupted there and it's just one hour drive from damascus north of the capital but we were stopped by the army and warned that it could be a one way ticket because first of all the road from damascus to milo is not safe

g. twenty summit in st petersburg is that the u.n. special envoy mr but i hear me talking to merge and see flights to st petersburg to take part in the talks to try to listen to the boat both sides of barack obama and vladimir putin so definitely syria has been pretty much the top story here well of course he had is in the foreground now and as you said there's been a fifty fifty split there in opinions as to who is for and against can tell us a bit more about who is for and who's against at this point. suddenly judging by the separate statements coming from the camps of delegations of the g twenty countries we can say who is on what side for instance we know that russia's and china's position on the syrian conflict and its resolution hasn't changed the slightest russia still believes that first of all there needs to be a viable evidence of the chemical weapons used by any side and also that the u.n. security council must vote unanimously for any kind of military action china at the same time says that the possible strike on syria may

g. twenty there mostly the q. and a with the members of the press ask him questions up post his address right there let's just get down to the brass tacks for you here an odyssey as we continue our live coverage from the g twenty the american president barack obama saying that the usage of chemical weapons in syria was a breach of international security and the international community cannot be frozen and unable to respond otherwise the world becomes simply a more dangerous place of barack obama also saying that he was elected to end wolves and not to begin them maybe was noting here that during barack obama's speech he was really apparently stuck for words there were huge gaping pauses and what he had to say perhaps some might think that the pressure of the growth of the international community bearing down the opposition against a syrian strike could be taking its toll on the american president barack obama saying that some people have asked him in the past why does the u.s. allow certain atrocities to be commit

g. twenty member states on the syrian conflict split approximately fifty to fifty. among the members of the g. twenty group now also a clear sign that syria is the most important issue here is that the u.n. special piece and where mr brahimi flew in specially to st petersburg to discuss the issue with both sides opposing the strike on the country and those supporting it were understand that mr brahimi will be holding most of his talks with the presidents of the g. twenty member states during the day and it is sounds like an uncomfortable thought they have now is that actually clear which members could be for all against the u.n. the u.s. intervention in syria. well as i said nothing official came out from the country so far we are certainly expecting some sort of joint statement during the day later on but judging by the statements made in the margins of the summit we can see which countries are supporting the strike and which countries are opposing it certainly the position of russia and china are staying the same on the case they are strongly against it just as ob

g. twenty summit. and one of the main points the g. twenty spacing this year is u.s. plans to strike at syria are doing the reports on the latest updates on that from the form. the g. twenty leaders have already arrived to the city of st petersburg and some meetings have already taken place in particular the meeting between the russian president and that his chinese colleague there is has been no press statement following that meeting but we do know what they talked about apart from the top deal between russia and china deal multibillion deal which was signed in june the sides also talked about syria it's not a secret to anyone that beijing and moscow have been sharing somewhat of a common stance on the syrian conflict and the words of the vice finance minister of china in the morning basically confirmed that he said that should any strike on syria happen this would seriously damage the global economy because of the ask elating oil prices obviously these was one of the one of the subjects discussed at the talks between the two we are certainly expecting more on that t

it's back to business literally at the detainee some agency day that's ok people are right at the g twenty with all the leaders there and the business heads the hour we'll talk to you soon and find out more about what the b. twenty holds for everyone today. and army of super computers covertly worker with internet companies and technical trickery this is the force that allowed america's n.s.a. and bridges a g c h q to crack into any encrypted system they wanted to get access to the sensitive personal data of millions of users now is emerging from the latest edward snowden leaker which says online banking and even medical records have apparently been breached chris kids who stablished and encrypted secure server says it's a longing who can potentially get their hands on such information. it's not only industrial espionage think about the value of you know how many people have access to this huge treasure trove of data there one point four million people in the u.s. who have top secret clearances are all those people enjoy i don't think so so you have the issue of who has access to this data

g. twenty. well as much as everyone wants this to be a summit if you really focused on economic issues that are as it has always been clearly that political overtones and statements are unavoidable in this case in the wake of the recent syria developments now obviously the g twenty countries gathering here will have their stances on the issue and obviously those will be different stances among these countries and we are expecting some kind of statements and probably a joint statement at the end of the summit but the biggest intrigue clearly is whether there will be any communication any direct contact between the american president and the russian president here at the summit it was meant to fly to moscow several days ahead of the summit to moscow but he didn't as it was explained because of russia's granting political asylum to edward snowden and there may be some meetings here though there have been no official meetings between obama and putin on their schedule so there may be some meetings as

crises kenya film from marty's venture capital program reports from see that his work on what the g twenty has for the financial world. we have had the twenty meeting and that includes the biggest business people the business elite if you like the heavyweights i'm talking about heads of the biggest global banks companies c.e.o.'s of the big blue chips and they come together and they said they want some answers how we're going to get this job creation how we're going to deal with the unemployment two hundred million people still unemployed over seventy of those all use and there's been talk about the last generation and really no wall short term fixes it's all about long term solutions to the problems that we have at the moment we know that tax evasion has featured heavily and it's a topic that everyone pretty much agrees on and putin said that it's just the beginning and that small to be done but so far there's cooperation between the twenty eight leaders which makes up ninety percent of the global g.d.p. so in terms of tax evasion then we know that there's going to be more monitoring of t

g. twenty summit. well don't be misled by the serenity of the gorgeous constantin askew palace behind me in fact it may become the stage of a very heated political debate it's no secret to anyone that everyone wants to be the g. twenty summit to be purely about economic issues but obviously the latest developments on the syrian conflict will overshadow the economic agenda. one that the g twenty countries have had different stances on the syrian conflict that in some clear whether they will find any common ground on this issue just as it is in the clear and in fact it is the biggest intrigue the political intrigue of this summit is whether the president of russia vladimir putin and the u.s. president barack obama will actually meet during the summit now obama already refused to come to moscow prior to this summit explaining this by the fact that russia granted political asylum to edward snowden and here unprecedented for the first time the two presidents of russia united states have no scheduled meeting

g. twenty in this q. and a session with the russian president one of the journalists asking why is it that you are just so frosty with the american president. do you guys just not get along at all which point the russian president vladimir putin smiled and said look we had a nice meeting today me and barack obama was a constructive and warm conversation he said that we kept our positions we continue to disagree with each other on several issues particularly syria but that doesn't mean that we were not polite and cordial briefly before i wrap up here from the g twenty one of the one of the reporters asking about edward snowden why did russia protect the former n.s.a. whistleblower president putin simply saying if the u.s. and russia shared an extradition treaty edward snowden would have been back in america in no time at all but we continue our live coverage from the twenty third twenty summit here in the venice of the north of course in petersburg. i will be back with more very soon. are you watching our

g. twenty summit in st petersburg even the d.n.a. which was held last night which all the members of all the presidents of the g. twenty member states attended which is usually about having fun relaxing having a chill talk and and enjoying the delicacies was seemingly looking more like a heated debate with heated political and diplomatic debate on the future of syria obviously we have no official statement from that dinner it was behind closed doors with no cameras inside but we had some information from the spokesperson of the russian president it was called was said that indeed syria was talking the agenda of the guardian and the countries of the g. twenty member states have been split in their opinions on the future of syria in almost fifty to fifty ratio we can basically based on the statements coming from. some officials on these countries we can see who is for and who is against the strike now russia's and china's positions have been the same and they have stayed in change they are opposing any kind of military action against s
