decades after the vietnam war victims of the deadly chemical agent orange have renewed calls for the u.s. government to acknowledge its toxic legacy. glass the most wanted a new bollywood comedy featuring on osama bin laden lookalike is banned in pakistan r.c. meets the leading man. a very warm welcome to me this is r.t. live from moscow with me alice habit french police have charged three ethnic chechens with conspiring with terrorists russian since they belong to the group led by infamous militant leader doco model off who is responsible for a number of terrorist acts including the attack on the moscow metro in march this

year our european correspondent laura emmett's has the details. they were full of people who originally arrested one of them has been set free with no charges so we're left with three men who are charged by the french police of conspiring with terrorists now front says that they are connected to various on named terror groups russian maintains that the link is in fact with doku moderates who claimed responsibility for the mosque. in march of course two bombs were set off in travelling time in rush hour killing more than forty people he claimed responsibility for there are some talk of him having links with al qaida as well during. the flats where these three men lived police found far on the explosives and also very significantly a map of moscow with various potential terror target small to. this arrest

is really significant for three reasons firstly of course it makes the world a safer place there was hard and fast evidence that these men were conspiring to perpetrate terrorist attacks certainly in moscow possibly in the rest of the world also this was an arrest by the french police which came in response to a tip off from russia it was the russian authorities who told police in western france that they had potential church and terrorists living there and then the differential sources moved in and arrested these people so it's really an example of of russia and european countries working together to minimize the terrorist threats so cool modify was recognized recently by the u.s. as having links to al qaida just before president medvedev visits to the states the u.s. declared him a terrorist. and i quote the radical jihadist movement poses a threat to the u.s. he calls himself the leader of the caucasus emirate he is the self-proclaimed sort

of president if you like called of the caucasus and he's one of the most wanted. one of the most notorious terrorists still in the north the north caucasus region of course he claimed responsibility for the attacks that killed forty people and injured more than one hundred but he's also according to russian officials responsible for many more terror attacks and he has been active since the nine hundred ninety s. so this is really punching a hole in what has become quite so quite a threatening terrorist network inside russia and also with links outside to. go with him we've got plenty more ahead including a perilous a profession russia is a school with no it may be a life threatening job for the go. the u.s. has released confidential documents on the vietnam war showing bitter divisions among

white house officials at the time of the conflict it comes as hearings have been held in the house of representatives on the impact of the deadly chemical agent orange and vietnam itself victims of repeated their demands for the u.s. government to fully acknowledge the chemicals that toxic legacy you may find some of the images in jihad it's report just. i was born with our too late and missing a hand it is because of america's chemical war against her people in the jungles of vietnam that has left tran in these conditions she is a victim of agent orange second generation tran is one of many her story represents millions living in the shadows of a lasting legacy. these kids will never live a normal life their deformities physical signs of human decay and although their parents were not even born until after the vietnam war eighteen million gallons of

the toxic herbicide sprayed through the jungles of south vietnam is still penetrating the d.n.a. of those being born today than a man named marion said the victim into still alive are suffering. internet space came to us the u.s. government has acknowledged agent orange is directly connected to the health ailments and defects that continue to plague the lives of vietnam war veterans for generations to come but the u.s. has worst used to make the same length for the millions of the enemies of war victims whose lives have been devastated as a result of agent orange they say that it has nothing to do with agent orange. i think that the u.s. government has the reason to deny it. which is why delegations are here in washington following a report issued by lawmakers scientists and doctors calling on the u.s. government to own up to its agent orange legacy in vietnam today also people will stand me government records show nearly ninety five percent of all u.s.

agent orange related aid is committed to efforts to contain and remove dioxin contamination we asked the justice for all the victims those fighting for justice in the case of the enemy's agent orange victims want the physical and psychological damages to be acknowledged. the dark legacy left behind by the u.s. in vietnam is one with millions of human face. their struggle three decades in the making will not end with money from the u.s. government but it could ease the pain the u.s. has been ignoring scented dumped a month sent to manufactured agent orange in these jungles. washington d.c. . well for more on the story you can log on to our website at www dot com where we feature the special report on the subject let's have a look now at some other stories this might interest you on the line spinning out of control season striking pictures from an amusement park in st petersburg where

interviewing the worst more dead of this however this man does not have a twenty five million dollar reward on his head in fact he is not or some of bin ladin but an actor in a bollywood for their new bin ladin or without you lot in but just in case you think this is a movie glorifying a terrorist it is a. biography it's a film which is. beloved and happens we get it and this is a bin laden. using it's not. in any way anybody from anybody is going to enjoy this from i can guarantee you that. young journalist is fixated with going to america and he decided to stick it to get an interview with osama bin laden so he goes about creating a fake. using. keep that.

under wraps to prevent making the film. i had gone to shopping mall in noida to promote this film and there was a commotion there a crowd of more than a hundred people gathered so will fall in this time pete i was scared they might attack me but nothing like that happened they wanted to shake my hand and take my autograph so i signed with love. who plays the journalist is a pakistani singer and this is a film how does it feel acting in an indian film set in pakistan in bollywood films greatly appreciated be seen. people enjoy them. so i mean to see your pakistani in something very refreshing and new for them but pakistan's firm censors have banned the movie saying it locks security agencies. and screening it in public

could trigger violence the film's distributors in pakistan call it a message of peace and not appealing the ban the selling point of this film is osama bin laden but it's very tongue in cheek. to act the part in and. i challenge you america there will be retribution just doing evil actions you have committed in the countries like iraq and afghanistan so these you will have to pay a heavy price. when i first heard about this film i thought it was going to be a beautification alternative but actually it's quite irrelevant in the way pakistanis and muslims are looked at with suspicion in the west today and how the video could be fooled into believing something that doesn't exist i think this film could do well in south asia but western audiences would probably be a good sense of humor to appreciate the message got and seeing. new delhi. the mongolian president said a dive into the world's deepest lake aboard

the japanese city of hiroshima many including the godfather of the atomic bomb j. robert oppenheimer were terrified by the power of the deadly mushroom cloud people . both people were spared the echo of that blast carried far beyond the atlantic and the soviet union experiments with nuclear energy were on the way too but just like the us and this research institute on the black sea coast the main rules were played by jurymen scientists this used to be a top secret nuclear facility but aside from these lawyers the entrance was guarded by soviet soldiers. deep inside of causey a subtropical paradise. three hundred germans top nuclear physicists their assistants family members and even personal chefs were brought to this clue's

he's showing us the four thousand book library with rare physics digests and german the office where head professor used to work and the equipment hell left for russian scientists. this machine is called the spectral brush it's a high definition device a very precise one even when the germans left are saying to us used to get great results with this equipment. but the rest of the building where german physicists used to work on the soviet a bomb is totally deserve it all lines are disconnected and nowadays people rarely visit these dark hole ways sixty years after the beginning of the nuclear era this place hidden among the bamboo trees still holds many secrets and the story of german scientists behind the soviet union's very own project manhattan is just one of them. applause. well some other stories making headlines around the world this hour and a fire in

a talk to some of them. single and in need of beautiful company events you need to attend as a couple but you don't have your plus one there are people willing to help with that the beauty of the escort business is they provide you with a choice of glamorous educated multilingual women will be more than happy to grace your side at any important event but many believe this business is not just skin deep. the girls who are engaged in these so-called escort services get sexually abused a lot more often than prostitutes because no one tells them they will have to perform sexual favors or who they will be passed on to their sometimes the client who books in his court will simply bring the girl to use own clients who abuse her. will get however women who are employed by escort services seem keen to disprove this notion the limb is an escort and she does not worry about her safety. suit that's not

a look this is the world we make clients we show the mosque girls are educated attractive and teligent and people enjoy our company but that hasn't been a time when i felt scared and concerned about my safety lines up and if the girl feels unsafe she can always leave some. still she says she wouldn't tell her boyfriend about her chosen profession because too often it is confused with prostitution and many say with good reason. all kinds of support for business meetings claims the website of one escort agency but the pictures that accompany the statement certainly don't show any support and hand at a very illegal business some believe this business can even get you killed. a russian newspaper journalist went undercover for six months as an escort what she saw certainly wasn't the fairy tale promised in the ads. when i was

working as an escort i got invited to an interview with two very tuned in flesh man this was pretty normal thing so i wasn't scared but when the men came out to the loony kid i got worried and dog a sudden he grabbed me and trying to force me to perform a sexual act a bit him and jumped off a balcony to ski you know islam was lucky others weren't either there because they know the talk about what they've gone through these girls only they get really drunk the lucky ones simply get raped like you once end up in hospital and they never complain because if you do a very unpleasant accident like a hit and run and your dad. according to the complaint is the one thing these girls cannot afford to do. i remember a girl who told the truth about her life in a t.v. interview about how they get raped me tone forced to hand over all their money and

the people that edited the documentary didn't change her voice or cover her face or anything a few days after the documentary aired she was found killed. so the glamour and the money are very real but the danger is even more so i guess readers are of r.t. moscow. fidel castro kiba is the revolutionary leader and former president has made his full public appearance and a week up to four years of almost total seclusion to paycheck coast to take a look at how pump in the he and his communist legacy are in cuba on. far as iraq is that they feel cows are great either i assure them that vastness shame. shame people who believe that styling was a great. castro you know these you know right you know i think it's very funny it's very funny what you see because the world me excuse me frank you made an accusation

i'm going to react to it you're living in a bubble most of the world miners fidel castro for good reasons wrong reasons and you know i'm that's not a debate that we're going to have going i point is well. i want to deal castro was very positive in the world is daughter fact you were born a pretty lady and the fact feel cows are under your in their tracks. as well she is i don't know if you know you well look i'm a short your science as you could call something as many times as you warn but his daughter fact cuba the cuban government has been in power for fifty years they care was wanting to change on the stand that where you were saying about the dollars going to q well yeah where i am if their french well you're wrong they're french that their navy and their russian said they perish club share a lot of dollars to cuba that also don't work because cuba misusers that money you know for the benefit of the cuban people.

well that was a quick preview for you in the full debate is coming up in just ten minutes when you see in the meantime we'll break this business he's a good enough. great takeaway. for the full story we've gone to. the biggest issues get a human voice face to face with the news makers. every month we give you the future we'll do you understand how we'll get there and . the best in science and technology from across russia and around the world. join us our technology update on our g.

hello and welcome to our business program it's good to have you with us spoke area in russia expected to saya detail of agreement on the south stream gas pipeline when discussions concluded sufi at the deal will effectively be a road map of how the two countries will move forward the next step will be to set up a joint company to study the facility at the project which would provide the details of a legally binding contract gazprom is developing cells to provide an alternative route for russian gas to europe display far as in the bench or italian energy and any and france's e.t.s. . any aspect of it to call for oil and gas as film or i'll see you and he said the progress being made by south stream was undermining the arguments in favor of the european backed now book a project. i would say there are currently are put a full termination of this new book idea. i wouldn't truly save that for europe new

book is completely forgotten clearly europe needs diversification of the gas that goes from from russia into the south part of europe. we might see additional ideas or maybe from the russian side or possibly inspired from from european countries the source of this will not be only russia but see as your budget is well served over chan interest in the pipeline on the russian territory and to ship virus or stream pipeline to that part of europe. russia clearly needs. diversification from from ukraine diversification from from transit flows but the problem is that european countries also need diversification and are clearly constructing sounds true doesn't actually imply that europe will divorce a far from russia. russian equity markets reverse one hundred games and even trading session on friday both the r.t.s.

and lies it's close down point nine percent all the blue chips were in the red words very bad close at the malls down force was down six percent. than expected financial results from american companies provided much of the driving force for the markets during the week and we did again head of research of farts club explains the impact they had russian share prices. these news determined to maim trends or that wall markets and most of the rica markets today we saw a sort of short correction and we hold that these positive trend to build big continue during the next three and the season of corporate finance the result is going to be hold to the results of the second quarter of the american corporate sector will be better than the same results of the second quarter last year but other stories b.p. could reduce some of its liabilities from the oil spill in the gulf of mexico by

associating them with assets it is putting up for sale it's now thought the told cost of stemming from the disaster could be as high as one hundred billion dollars b.p. has been considering the sale of assets to raise capital and such deals could be risky for potential buyers laws prohibiting project transfers could love victims to apply to cover their claim even so action mobile waldock and have already publicly stated an interest in b.p.'s assets with the latter saying it was ready to pay ten billion dollars in alaska. big state owned companies in russia not coming up with enough innovative product products that's the verdict of the managing director of pricewaterhouse coopers center of innovation. correspondent to tampa nicola caught up with him at the international forum of industry and innovation and he. we interviewed some one hundred of the largest companies and russia so it was in the

smaller perhaps more innovative start ups of the large some of the largest one billion dollars minimum size no a forty percent ever produced innovative new product over the last two years so the good news is that that's forty percent the bad news is over a two year period for large companies it really should be closer to ninety percent so when we looked at. who was actually doing that and what were the companies were the nature of the companies that were doing more innovating in the major companies or for companies that were subsidiaries of international organizations were more likely to be innovating. russian companies that sell in the international markets are more likely to be innovating. like russian companies a cell just domestically or had state ownership. were less likely to innovate so there's some sense there about what is what is what drives innovation do you believe in russia potential to build it in the paper pop them all still seem

a lot to cover for now and they come that way russia has to have patience because all of these very successful regions they didn't it wasn't like overnight that they became a huge success and so it was sometimes decades at least a decade and almost every now and then russia because they need to be patient they should really look a little beyond you know what's the big hot new thing now or in the next year but sort of look at trends around science in innovation that are still at sort of the pretty competitive level where you can bring multinational companies together with russian scientists and engineers and focus on solving major problems. that's all for this hour headline news are next and don't go away.

the issue is the same i understand my family and are always available some of them being the new buyers in the market well he's helped our stores appearance on cuban television for years again puts into focus the bonus.
