[00:00.000 --> 00:08.000]  on the National General Conference, which the President of the Republic, General Talebani, called for.
[00:08.000 --> 00:14.000]  There is talk about the National Alliance's agreement to attend this meeting, no matter where it was.
[00:14.000 --> 00:20.000]  There is also an agreement from the President of the Qutban region, Masoud Barazani, to attend this conference
[00:20.000 --> 00:24.000]  after the disagreement on the place of attendance was a sign of the situation.
[00:24.000 --> 00:30.000]  But this conference, which has not been announced about its place and time until now,
[00:30.000 --> 00:37.000]  cannot reduce the political tension that is now in the Iraqi field,
[00:37.000 --> 00:44.000]  and it may lead to a conflict that may lead to a political operation in Iraq to the end.
[00:44.000 --> 00:52.000]  But there are also discussions from the State of Law and from the Prime Minister of Iraq, Nouri al-Maliki,
[00:52.000 --> 00:59.000]  considering that the Iraqi politicians have reached a final result,
[00:59.000 --> 01:05.000]  including the appointment of the deputy president of the Republic, Tareq al-Hashimi, to the judiciary to take a step.
[01:05.000 --> 01:10.000]  But the Iraqi list is still, until now, holding its demands,
[01:10.000 --> 01:14.000]  and it also has certain conditions for attending the National General Conference.
[01:14.000 --> 01:20.000]  And these conditions are not positive for the rest of the political groups.
[01:20.000 --> 01:24.000]  Also, the Iraqi government and the Iraqi Judiciary Council may take a step forward
[01:24.000 --> 01:28.000]  on the issue of the post of deputy president of the Republic, Tareq al-Hashimi,
[01:28.000 --> 01:33.000]  and it seems that this post will take its place in the judiciary,
[01:33.000 --> 01:37.000]  and it may be, in the next stage, the deputy president of the Republic
[01:37.000 --> 01:41.000]  and one of the most prominent Iraqi leaders, Tareq al-Hashimi,
[01:41.000 --> 01:46.000]  may be out of the political process, especially in the next stage,
[01:46.000 --> 01:51.000]  and the Iraqi Judiciary Council has issued a decision to freeze its money,
[01:51.000 --> 01:54.000]  whether it will be transferred or not.
[01:54.000 --> 01:58.000]  Also, there is a session two days after the Iraqi Judiciary Council,
[01:58.000 --> 02:02.000]  which is supposed to be held, and there are hot files in it.
[02:02.000 --> 02:07.000]  This session is attended by members of the Iraqi Council.
[02:07.000 --> 02:11.000]  Perhaps the atmosphere between the Iraqi politicians will be mixed,
[02:11.000 --> 02:14.000]  but if they continue to cut the sessions of the Judiciary Council
[02:14.000 --> 02:18.000]  and the absence of their role, then the Iraqi government
[02:18.000 --> 02:22.000]  will take its threats with these statements
[02:22.000 --> 02:27.000]  and also with the ministers of the Iraqi Judiciary in the Iraqi Judiciary Council.
[02:27.000 --> 02:31.000]  Ms. Nagham, Tamimi, our reporter in Baghdad, thank you very much.
[02:31.000 --> 02:33.000]  Thank you.
[02:33.000 --> 02:37.000]  Today, Iran has continued its naval maneuvers by testing it,
[02:37.000 --> 02:41.000]  and for the first time it has launched a medium-range missile,
[02:41.000 --> 02:44.000]  which is anti-radar devices.
[02:44.000 --> 02:48.000]  Iran has tested a long-range missile in its own maneuvers,
[02:48.000 --> 02:53.000]  which is carried out in the middle of a talkative war with the United States
[02:53.000 --> 02:57.000]  because of the intention of Tehran to stop the movement in the middle of Hormuz,
[02:57.000 --> 03:00.000]  in case of sanctions imposed on Iranian oil.
[03:00.000 --> 03:05.000]  Indeed, American President Barack Obama has imposed a new sanctions
[03:05.000 --> 03:10.000]  that aim at the central bank and the Iranian financial sector
[03:10.000 --> 03:15.000]  in a step that may lead to tension with Iran.
[03:19.000 --> 03:22.000]  At the same time, Tehran has announced that its scientists
[03:22.000 --> 03:26.000]  will be able to conduct an experiment on the first sample of nuclear fuel
[03:26.000 --> 03:29.000]  produced from the raw uranium tank.
[03:29.000 --> 03:32.000]  The website of the Iranian Institute of Nuclear Energy said that
[03:32.000 --> 03:35.000]  scientists are studying the effectiveness of the sample
[03:35.000 --> 03:39.000]  after putting it in the heart of the research efforts in Tehran,
[03:39.000 --> 03:42.000]  while the website did not specify the percentage of contamination
[03:42.000 --> 03:45.000]  of the experimental fuel.
[03:45.000 --> 03:49.000]  Iran said last month that it plans to use uranium fuel
[03:49.000 --> 03:52.000]  as a local product that produces radioactive particles
[03:52.000 --> 03:56.000]  for medical purposes and works with chemical fertilizers.
[03:56.000 --> 03:59.000]  Iran faces four parts of the sanctions
[03:59.000 --> 04:03.000]  due to its refusal to respond to repeated warnings
[04:03.000 --> 04:09.000]  to stop its program to specialize in uranium.
[04:12.000 --> 04:15.000]  The public body for the protection of consumers
[04:15.000 --> 04:18.000]  has taken measures to limit the rise in prices,
[04:18.000 --> 04:22.000]  including stabilizing the prices of some consumer goods.
[04:22.000 --> 04:27.000]  But the step was taken by the Oman Chamber of Commerce
[04:27.000 --> 04:33.000]  which said that it would harm the market.
[04:33.000 --> 04:36.000]  The issue of raising some of the main products
[04:36.000 --> 04:38.000]  in the local markets on the surface
[04:38.000 --> 04:28.600]  and protecting consumers from
[04:42.000 --> 04:44.000]  The purpose of the president was to inform him
[04:44.000 --> 04:48.000]  of the specific side of the investigation.
[04:48.000 --> 04:52.000]  Consumers warn the public body for the protection of consumers
[04:52.000 --> 04:55.000]  that they are under surveillance for any wrong practices
[04:55.000 --> 04:58.000]  and say that foreign factors are sometimes
[04:58.000 --> 05:01.000]  beneficial to the decline and not to the decline.
[05:01.000 --> 05:04.000]  We are suffering from internal problems.
[05:04.000 --> 05:07.000]  Why are we suffering here?
[05:07.000 --> 05:09.000]  The prices should be reduced.
[05:09.000 --> 05:13.000]  The prices are higher than in Nizwa or Samayel.
[05:13.000 --> 05:20.000]  There are a lot of prices, especially for food.
[05:20.000 --> 05:24.000]  Rice, milk, eggs, fish,
[05:24.000 --> 05:27.000]  most of the prices are high.
[05:27.000 --> 05:31.000]  We used to take prices that were lower than now.
[05:31.000 --> 05:34.000]  I hope there is a little more adjustment in prices
[05:34.000 --> 05:36.000]  and more surveillance on them.
[05:36.000 --> 05:39.000]  The body asked the merchants to understand
[05:39.000 --> 05:41.000]  the internal and external changes
[05:41.000 --> 05:44.000]  to work with high efficiency to protect consumers
[05:44.000 --> 05:47.000]  as procedures that should not be disturbed
[05:47.000 --> 05:49.000]  but should be understood.
[05:49.000 --> 05:51.000]  Avoid any negative signs
[05:51.000 --> 05:54.000]  or overwhelming pressures that harm the economy.
[05:54.000 --> 05:57.000]  The issue of stabilizing prices does not compete
[05:57.000 --> 05:59.000]  with the principles of the free market
[05:59.000 --> 06:01.000]  in the light of unrealistic competition
[06:01.000 --> 06:03.000]  and the absence of alternatives.
[06:03.000 --> 06:05.000]  From this point of view,
[06:05.000 --> 06:08.000]  markets really need to be implemented
[06:08.000 --> 06:10.000]  in the principles of the free economy
[06:10.000 --> 06:13.000]  and in markets that depend on the principle of supply and demand
[06:13.000 --> 06:16.000]  when there is real competition in these markets,
[06:16.000 --> 06:19.000]  when there are no gaps, as it is said,
[06:19.000 --> 06:21.000]  there is no need to interfere
[06:21.000 --> 06:23.000]  because it will be confirmed
[06:23.000 --> 06:25.000]  that in front of the consumer
[06:25.000 --> 06:28.000]  there are many options that can be used.
[06:28.000 --> 06:31.000]  The opinion of Oman Chamber of Commerce and Industry
[06:31.000 --> 06:34.000]  does not agree with the procedures of the special body
[06:34.000 --> 06:36.000]  to stabilizing prices.
[06:36.000 --> 06:38.000]  Its point of view says
[06:38.000 --> 06:41.000]  that specifying will harm the economy
[06:41.000 --> 06:43.000]  and the market.
[06:43.000 --> 06:46.000]  It is important to understand that
[06:46.000 --> 06:49.000]  the point of view of Oman Chamber of Commerce and Industry
[06:49.000 --> 06:52.000]  says that specifying will harm the local industry
[06:52.000 --> 06:55.000]  which relies on the input of a mass production
[06:55.000 --> 06:57.000]  as well as other reasons.
[06:57.000 --> 07:00.000]  Specifying prices will harm the local industry
[07:00.000 --> 07:02.000]  because the local industry
[07:02.000 --> 07:05.000]  relies on inputs from outside the Sultanate.
[07:05.000 --> 07:08.000]  This is a sample of supply and demand.
[07:08.000 --> 07:11.000]  Therefore, prices here are determined
[07:11.000 --> 07:13.000]  based on global prices.
[07:13.000 --> 07:16.000]  For example, the prices from the outside
[07:16.000 --> 07:18.000]  are at a higher price
[07:18.000 --> 07:20.000]  and here I cannot weigh
[07:20.000 --> 07:23.000]  between what I have acquired and what I sell.
[07:23.000 --> 07:26.000]  This also leads to other things.
[07:26.000 --> 07:29.000]  For example, the growth of manufacturing
[07:29.000 --> 07:31.000]  and services has stopped.
[07:31.000 --> 07:33.000]  The growth has also stopped
[07:33.000 --> 07:35.000]  the creation of working opportunities.
[07:35.000 --> 07:37.000]  The merchants who we met
[07:37.000 --> 07:39.000]  and who are registered in the room
[07:39.000 --> 07:41.000]  expressed their satisfaction
[07:41.000 --> 07:43.000]  by saying that specifying prices
[07:43.000 --> 07:45.000]  does not harm their commercial activities.
[07:45.000 --> 07:47.000]  Rather, it is an essential requirement
[07:47.000 --> 07:49.000]  in the light of the social responsibilities
[07:49.000 --> 07:51.000]  that the consumer gathers.
[07:51.000 --> 07:53.000]  Specifying prices does not harm us
[07:53.000 --> 07:55.000]  because the merchant is always fair
[07:55.000 --> 07:57.000]  and he sees.
[07:57.000 --> 07:59.000]  The market is open
[07:59.000 --> 08:02.000]  and people today can access websites
[08:02.000 --> 08:04.000]  through the internet
[08:04.000 --> 08:06.000]  and know the types of products,
[08:06.000 --> 08:08.000]  their sources and prices.
[08:08.000 --> 08:11.000]  I see that this is a good direction
[08:11.000 --> 08:13.000]  and as a businessman,
[08:13.000 --> 08:15.000]  I do not see that there are
[08:15.000 --> 08:17.000]  rules and regulations in this field.
[08:17.000 --> 08:19.000]  The moral responsibility of the merchant
[08:19.000 --> 08:21.000]  is on the agenda today
[08:21.000 --> 08:23.000]  and it is required to understand
[08:23.000 --> 08:26.000]  any procedure aimed at protecting the consumer
[08:26.000 --> 08:28.000]  and to cooperate positively with him
[08:28.000 --> 08:30.000]  to reduce the suffering of the citizen
[08:30.000 --> 08:33.000]  as a result of the constant rise in prices.
[08:33.000 --> 08:35.000]  Ibrahim bin Salim Al Salmi
[08:35.000 --> 08:38.000]  for Oman Sultanate Television
[08:38.000 --> 08:40.000]  from Berwi Commercial District, Muscat.
[08:40.000 --> 08:42.000]  To analyze this situation
[08:42.000 --> 08:44.000]  with us in the studio,
[08:44.000 --> 08:46.000]  Dr. Nasr bin Rashid Al-Ma'wali
[08:46.000 --> 08:48.000]  Director of the Oman Economic Association.
[08:48.000 --> 08:50.000]  Welcome, Dr.
[08:50.000 --> 08:52.000]  Welcome.
[08:52.000 --> 08:54.000]  Does the issue of specifying prices
[08:54.000 --> 08:56.000]  of the main product ceiling
[08:56.000 --> 08:58.000]  compete with the principle of the free market?
[08:58.000 --> 09:00.000]  In fact, in the beginning,
[09:00.000 --> 09:02.000]  the realization of the total
[09:02.000 --> 09:05.000]  and the cost of the Sultanate
[09:05.000 --> 09:07.000]  is to pay attention to the citizen,
[09:07.000 --> 09:09.000]  to the person who is the development center.
[09:09.000 --> 09:11.000]  As he mentioned in his last meeting
[09:11.000 --> 09:13.000]  with the Oman Council,
[09:13.000 --> 09:15.000]  it is a piece of comfort
[09:15.000 --> 09:17.000]  that the development is around.
[09:17.000 --> 09:19.000]  The state has continued to
[09:19.000 --> 09:21.000]  provide the citizens with the consumer
[09:21.000 --> 09:23.000]  or the product for them.
[09:23.000 --> 09:26.000]  The issue of specifying the product ceiling
[09:26.000 --> 09:29.000]  does not compete with the principles
[09:29.000 --> 09:32.000]  of the free market.
[09:32.000 --> 09:34.000]  If there is a failure
[09:34.000 --> 09:36.000]  in the economy of the free market
[09:36.000 --> 09:39.000]  in issuing a fair price
[09:39.000 --> 09:41.000]  for the two parties,
[09:41.000 --> 09:43.000]  the consumer and the product.
[09:43.000 --> 09:45.000]  In this case, we expect
[09:45.000 --> 09:47.000]  the government to intervene
[09:47.000 --> 09:49.000]  in specifying prices,
[09:49.000 --> 09:51.000]  either directly
[09:51.000 --> 09:53.000]  through a certain price,
[09:53.000 --> 09:55.000]  or through the support of
[09:55.000 --> 09:57.000]  the advanced products and services,
[09:57.000 --> 09:59.000]  or through the monitoring
[09:59.000 --> 10:01.000]  of the markets,
[10:01.000 --> 10:03.000]  about fraud, corruption
[10:03.000 --> 10:05.000]  and other things
[10:05.000 --> 10:07.000]  that compete with the morals of the market.
[10:07.000 --> 10:09.000]  The issue of the free market
[10:09.000 --> 10:11.000]  is that many countries
[10:11.000 --> 10:13.000]  are currently
[10:13.000 --> 10:15.000]  under the umbrella
[10:15.000 --> 10:17.000]  of the common market
[10:17.000 --> 10:19.000]  and the mixed market.
[10:19.000 --> 10:21.000]  The mixed is between
[10:21.000 --> 10:23.000]  the free market and the direct one.
[10:23.000 --> 10:25.000]  In fact, we do not have to
[10:25.000 --> 10:27.000]  comply with the free market
[10:27.000 --> 10:29.000]  with targets,
[10:29.000 --> 10:31.000]  if the tools of the free market
[10:31.000 --> 10:33.000]  do not act in the expected way.
[10:33.000 --> 10:35.000]  Yes.
[10:35.000 --> 10:37.000]  How can the link
[10:37.000 --> 10:39.000]  between the process
[10:39.000 --> 10:41.000]  of stabilizing prices
[10:41.000 --> 10:43.000]  and balanced rates
[10:43.000 --> 10:45.000]  in the index of inflation?
[10:45.000 --> 10:47.000]  Of course, the issue of
[10:47.000 --> 10:49.000]  linking prices
[10:49.000 --> 10:51.000]  and issuing prices
[10:51.000 --> 10:53.000]  has another effect
[10:53.000 --> 10:55.000]  on the prices
[10:55.000 --> 10:57.000]  as they go down
[10:57.000 --> 10:59.000]  in the level of inflation,
[10:59.000 --> 11:01.000]  which leads to a reduction
[11:01.000 --> 11:03.000]  in the cost of living.
[11:03.000 --> 11:05.000]  It also contributes
[11:05.000 --> 11:07.000]  to preserving
[11:07.000 --> 11:09.000]  the value of the national currency
[11:09.000 --> 11:11.000]  and to strengthening
[11:11.000 --> 11:13.000]  the competitiveness
[11:13.000 --> 11:15.000]  of public products
[11:15.000 --> 11:17.000]  and other products.
[11:17.000 --> 11:19.000]  However, there is still
[11:19.000 --> 11:21.000]  a certain fear
[11:21.000 --> 11:23.000]  of the inflation
[11:23.000 --> 11:25.000]  and the inflation
[11:25.000 --> 11:27.000]  that is officially
[11:27.000 --> 11:29.000]  reflected
[11:29.000 --> 11:31.000]  by government policies
[11:31.000 --> 11:33.000]  and then the prices explode
[11:33.000 --> 11:35.000]  and the inflation
[11:35.000 --> 11:37.000]  is in this case
[11:37.000 --> 11:39.000]  the inflation of inflation.
[11:39.000 --> 11:41.000]  In the end, I say
[11:41.000 --> 11:43.000]  with the protection of the consumer
[11:43.000 --> 11:45.000]  and the protection of the trader
[11:45.000 --> 11:47.000]  which is in a fair way.
[11:47.000 --> 11:49.000]  At the end of the interview,
[11:49.000 --> 11:51.000]  we will hear from Rashid Al-Ma'wali,
[11:51.000 --> 11:53.000]  the Secretary of the Oman Economic Association.
[11:53.000 --> 11:55.000]  Thank you very much.
[11:55.000 --> 11:57.000]  Thank you.
[11:57.000 --> 11:59.000]  We continue the broadcast
[11:59.000 --> 12:01.000]  after a battle that described
[12:01.000 --> 12:03.000]  the return of the Ethiopian
[12:03.000 --> 12:05.000]  and Somali government forces
[12:05.000 --> 12:07.000]  to the strategic city of Baldwin
[12:07.000 --> 12:09.000]  which was subject to the movement
[12:09.000 --> 12:11.000]  of the youth of the Mujahideen
[12:11.000 --> 12:13.000]  in the middle of Somalia.
[12:13.000 --> 12:15.000]  The destination was
[12:15.000 --> 12:17.000]  the city of Somalia
[12:17.000 --> 12:19.000]  and the forces that had left it
[12:19.000 --> 12:21.000]  two years ago and came
[12:21.000 --> 12:23.000]  to control it again.
[12:23.000 --> 12:25.000]  It had what it wanted
[12:25.000 --> 12:27.000]  after the city was attacked
[12:27.000 --> 12:29.000]  with a light and heavy weapon.
[12:29.000 --> 12:31.000]  The Ethiopian forces came
[12:31.000 --> 12:33.000]  with a call
[12:33.000 --> 12:35.000]  to the Somali government
[12:35.000 --> 12:37.000]  for neighboring countries
[12:37.000 --> 12:39.000]  which did not recognize
[12:39.000 --> 12:41.000]  the presence of Ethiopian forces
[12:41.000 --> 12:43.000]  in its territory.
[12:43.000 --> 12:45.000]  Today, the Somalis'
[12:45.000 --> 12:47.000]  forces came to the city
[12:47.000 --> 12:49.000]  in the late 2006
[12:49.000 --> 12:51.000]  with support from Washington
[12:51.000 --> 12:53.000]  to take over the armed forces there.
[12:53.000 --> 12:55.000]  This was the result
[12:55.000 --> 12:57.000]  when the Ethiopian and Somali forces
[12:57.000 --> 12:59.000]  took over a strategic city
[12:59.000 --> 13:01.000]  that was subject to the movement
[13:01.000 --> 13:03.000]  of the youth in the middle of Somalia
[13:03.000 --> 13:05.000]  after a bloody battle.
[13:05.000 --> 13:07.000]  The news is not like before
[13:07.000 --> 13:09.000]  when the population saw
[13:09.000 --> 13:11.000]  trucks and Somali forces
[13:11.000 --> 13:13.000]  supported by another Ethiopian
[13:13.000 --> 13:15.000]  in the streets of the city
[13:15.000 --> 13:17.000]  and outside of it.
[13:17.000 --> 13:19.000]  So they chose the group
[13:19.000 --> 13:21.000]  to avoid losses
[13:21.000 --> 13:23.000]  due to what is happening
[13:23.000 --> 13:25.000]  on the right and on the left.
[13:25.000 --> 13:27.000]  As for the Somali government,
[13:27.000 --> 13:29.000]  it expressed its happiness
[13:29.000 --> 13:31.000]  in restoring the city
[13:31.000 --> 13:33.000]  while the youth movement
[13:33.000 --> 13:35.000]  considered its fighters
[13:35.000 --> 13:37.000]  withdrawn in restoring
[13:37.000 --> 13:39.000]  a strategic organization.
[13:39.000 --> 13:41.000]  Whether it was a liberation
[13:41.000 --> 13:43.000]  or a civil war,
[13:43.000 --> 13:45.000]  the Somalis were
[13:45.000 --> 13:47.000]  in the midst of a war
[13:47.000 --> 13:49.000]  similar to a humanitarian disaster.
[13:51.000 --> 13:53.000]  Now, let's go to
[13:53.000 --> 13:55.000]  our colleague,
[13:55.000 --> 13:57.000]  and the last news
[13:57.000 --> 13:59.000]  from the economy.
[13:59.000 --> 14:01.000]  Thank you.
[14:01.000 --> 14:03.000]  Welcome.
[14:03.000 --> 14:05.000]  The paper market
[14:05.000 --> 14:07.000]  is now
[14:07.000 --> 14:09.000]  at a high level.
[14:09.000 --> 14:11.000]  In Denmark,
[14:11.000 --> 14:13.000]  the President of the European Union
[14:13.000 --> 14:15.000]  is taking a step
[14:15.000 --> 14:17.000]  to solve the euro debt crisis.
[14:17.000 --> 14:19.000]  The paper market
[14:19.000 --> 14:21.000]  is now
[14:21.000 --> 14:23.000]  at a low level.
[14:23.000 --> 14:25.000]  It scored 8 points
[14:25.000 --> 14:27.000]  and recorded 5,733 points.
[14:29.000 --> 14:31.000]  The paper market
[14:31.000 --> 14:33.000]  in the first sessions
[14:33.000 --> 14:35.000]  of the new year
[14:35.000 --> 14:37.000]  has improved
[14:37.000 --> 14:39.000]  in terms of
[14:39.000 --> 14:41.000]  circulation and
[14:41.000 --> 14:43.000]  production rates.
[14:43.000 --> 14:45.000]  The paper market
[14:45.000 --> 14:47.000]  is now
[14:47.000 --> 14:49.000]  at a low level
[14:49.000 --> 14:51.000]  and scored 8 points
[14:51.000 --> 14:53.000]  and recorded 5,733 points.
[14:53.000 --> 14:55.000]  The total cost
[14:55.000 --> 14:57.000]  is now
[14:57.000 --> 14:59.000]  1.2 million riyals
[14:59.000 --> 15:01.000]  since the distribution
[15:01.000 --> 15:03.000]  of 5.934 million
[15:03.000 --> 15:07.000]  and 1,112 contracts were implemented.
[15:07.000 --> 15:12.000]  Today, investors focused on the contribution of the company
[15:12.000 --> 15:17.000]  Hassan Engineering, which exceeded 900,000 shares,
[15:17.000 --> 15:20.000]  and the contribution of the company Jalfar Engineering
[15:20.000 --> 15:22.000]  with more than 800,000 shares.
[15:22.000 --> 15:26.000]  Also, the contribution of Al-Jazeera Services company
[15:26.000 --> 15:30.000]  was focused on the contribution of 552,000 shares.
[15:30.000 --> 15:33.000]  On the rise of transactions according to nationalities,
[15:33.000 --> 15:37.000]  most of the transactions in today's session were local,
[15:37.000 --> 15:41.000]  where the local investors became the highest in transactions.
[15:41.000 --> 15:45.000]  After the share reached 88%,
[15:45.000 --> 15:51.000]  on the other hand, 91% of investors and local institutions sold.
[15:51.000 --> 15:54.000]  The most prominent names are the high domestic investment contribution
[15:54.000 --> 15:57.000]  and Al-Jazeera Services and Hassan Engineering.
[15:57.000 --> 16:00.000]  As for the most prominent names, Suhar Al-Taqah,
[16:00.000 --> 16:03.000]  Alaf Dufar and Bank Suhar.
[16:06.000 --> 16:09.000]  Today, the President of the European Union
[16:09.000 --> 16:12.000]  took the initiative to solve the Euro debt crisis.
[16:12.000 --> 16:15.000]  The Prime Minister of Denmark, Thorning Schmitt,
[16:15.000 --> 16:18.000]  said that her country aspires to strengthen the European Union
[16:18.000 --> 16:21.000]  and solve the Euro debt crisis,
[16:21.000 --> 16:25.000]  although it is not a member of the European currency system.
[16:25.000 --> 16:28.000]  A number of European countries, including Denmark,
[16:28.000 --> 16:32.000]  have signed a new treaty to avoid future crises
[16:32.000 --> 16:36.000]  in the Euro region, made up of 17 countries.
[16:45.000 --> 16:48.000]  Following the Euro debt crisis,
[16:48.000 --> 16:51.000]  with us from the economic analyst in the Middle East,
[16:51.000 --> 16:53.000]  Mr. Sharif Abdul Hamid.
[16:53.000 --> 16:56.000]  Mr. Sharif, what are the opportunities for the European countries
[16:56.000 --> 17:00.000]  to overcome the crisis in light of the current support measures?
[17:01.000 --> 17:05.000]  In fact, at the beginning of 2012,
[17:05.000 --> 17:09.000]  there will be some real problems that the European Union will face.
[17:09.000 --> 17:12.000]  Starting from the first day of this year
[17:12.000 --> 17:15.000]  until the second half of this year,
[17:15.000 --> 17:18.000]  for the sake of the individual.
[17:18.000 --> 17:21.000]  If we go through to the second half of 2012,
[17:21.000 --> 17:25.000]  there is a clear possibility that the European Union
[17:25.000 --> 17:28.000]  and the Euro currency will continue
[17:28.000 --> 17:33.000]  using a lot of wisdom during these six months.
[17:33.000 --> 17:37.000]  Of course, in the statements we saw today
[17:37.000 --> 17:40.000]  from Angela Merkel, the French president,
[17:40.000 --> 17:44.000]  the Greek Prime Minister and the Italian president,
[17:44.000 --> 17:47.000]  four different statements,
[17:47.000 --> 17:50.000]  which refer to many problems in 2012
[17:50.000 --> 17:53.000]  that the European Union will face,
[17:53.000 --> 17:56.000]  all the expectations,
[17:56.000 --> 17:59.000]  which did not have anything to do with a clear agreement,
[17:59.000 --> 18:02.000]  and all of them were to some extent
[18:02.000 --> 18:05.000]  in a very negative way.
[18:05.000 --> 18:08.000]  So it will be six months full of difficulties,
[18:08.000 --> 18:11.000]  full of problems for the European Union,
[18:11.000 --> 18:14.000]  but we must be patient and wait
[18:14.000 --> 18:17.000]  until what happens in the first half.
[18:17.000 --> 18:20.000]  Looking at the calls of some European countries
[18:20.000 --> 18:23.000]  to establish an alternative tax system,
[18:23.000 --> 18:26.000]  and will this alternative system
[18:26.000 --> 18:29.000]  be a success or a solution to the crisis?
[18:29.000 --> 18:32.000]  The alternative system will be,
[18:32.000 --> 18:35.000]  it is a clear alternative system,
[18:35.000 --> 18:38.000]  and it is one,
[18:38.000 --> 18:41.000]  and it is the return of every country to its currency.
[18:41.000 --> 18:44.000]  There will be huge problems for countries
[18:44.000 --> 18:47.000]  such as Greece, Portugal, Ireland,
[18:47.000 --> 18:50.000]  small countries with small economies.
[18:50.000 --> 18:53.000]  Their return to their original currency
[18:53.000 --> 18:56.000]  will have a clear influx
[18:56.000 --> 18:59.000]  in the economies of these countries.
[18:59.000 --> 19:02.000]  The exchange rate in front of the dollar
[19:02.000 --> 19:05.000]  will be very clear,
[19:05.000 --> 19:08.000]  and it will be very difficult to export
[19:08.000 --> 19:11.000]  for these countries the products they produce.
[19:11.000 --> 19:14.000]  If they are able to export in the same way
[19:14.000 --> 19:17.000]  as they did in the dollar,
[19:17.000 --> 19:20.000]  there will be very real problems,
[19:20.000 --> 19:23.000]  and this is the only alternative
[19:23.000 --> 19:26.000]  in front of these countries
[19:26.000 --> 19:29.000]  if the dollar is allowed to return to their currency.
[19:29.000 --> 19:32.000]  If there will be other tools,
[19:32.000 --> 19:35.000]  I do not think there will be other tools
[19:35.000 --> 19:38.000]  for these countries in the European Union.
[19:38.000 --> 19:41.000]  Thank you very much.
[19:41.000 --> 19:44.000]  I will now return to the colleagues in the studio.
[19:44.000 --> 19:47.000]  Thank you.
[19:47.000 --> 19:50.000]  Thank you, Ms. Bouthaina,
[19:50.000 --> 19:53.000]  and we will continue with our presentation.
[19:53.000 --> 19:56.000]  During its fourth meeting,
[19:56.000 --> 19:59.000]  the scientific research committee discussed
[19:59.000 --> 20:02.000]  the report of the advisory committee of the committee
[20:02.000 --> 20:05.000]  by looking at the activities and programs
[20:05.000 --> 20:08.000]  and also presented a general picture
[20:08.000 --> 20:11.000]  of the scientific research strategies
[20:11.000 --> 20:14.000]  and policies in the Sultanate.
[20:14.000 --> 20:17.000]  There was also a joint meeting
[20:17.000 --> 20:20.000]  with the committee,
[20:20.000 --> 20:23.000]  and during the meeting,
[20:23.000 --> 20:26.000]  a proposal was made for the project
[20:26.000 --> 20:29.000]  of the Oman Institute
[20:29.000 --> 20:32.000]  which is in the framework of the scientific research committee
[20:32.000 --> 20:35.000]  in order to increase the research production
[20:35.000 --> 20:38.000]  and cooperation on both local and international levels.
[20:38.000 --> 20:41.000]  The meeting of the committee of the scientific research committee
[20:41.000 --> 20:44.000]  was held with Dr. Rawia Bint Saud Al-Busaidiyah,
[20:44.000 --> 20:47.000]  the Minister of Higher Education
[20:47.000 --> 20:50.000]  and the vice president of the scientific research committee.
[20:53.000 --> 20:56.000]  Of course, in 2011,
[20:56.000 --> 20:59.000]  in Japan,
[20:59.000 --> 21:02.000]  a violent missile reached seven degrees
[21:02.000 --> 21:05.000]  in the range of Richter,
[21:05.000 --> 21:08.000]  but we will not continue this news,
[21:08.000 --> 21:11.000]  we will go directly to the news of sports
[21:11.000 --> 21:14.000]  and the colleague Saeed Al-Shamfri,
[21:14.000 --> 21:17.000]  Mr. Saeed Al-Shamfri, Al-Aoud Al-Ahmad.
[21:17.000 --> 21:20.000]  May Allah bless you.
[21:20.000 --> 21:23.000]  Dear viewers,
[21:23.000 --> 21:26.000]  we will start with this news.
[21:26.000 --> 21:29.000]  The World Cup was held in Kuwait
[21:29.000 --> 21:32.000]  in the coming year,
[21:32.000 --> 21:35.000]  from November 20 to December 23,
[21:35.000 --> 21:38.000]  when the final promise was made
[21:38.000 --> 21:41.000]  after the return of the participating countries.
[21:41.000 --> 21:44.000]  The invitation was sent to all the national unions
[21:44.000 --> 21:47.000]  to confirm participation in the championship
[21:47.000 --> 21:50.000]  before the final promise on January 21.
[21:50.000 --> 21:53.000]  To Europe, where the Dutch international
[21:53.000 --> 21:56.000]  Robben van Persie was born,
[21:56.000 --> 21:59.000]  he could stay in the Arsenal ranks
[21:59.000 --> 22:02.000]  until the end of his contract in June 2013
[22:02.000 --> 22:05.000]  with the possibility of moving to Barcelona
[22:05.000 --> 22:08.000]  or Manchester United.
[22:08.000 --> 22:11.000]  Van Persie has not yet reached an agreement
[22:11.000 --> 22:14.000]  with Arsenal to renew the contract for additional years,
[22:14.000 --> 22:17.000]  except that the Dutch striker who scored 50 goals
[22:17.000 --> 22:20.000]  in various competitions last year
[22:20.000 --> 22:23.000]  was not allowed to play in London.
[22:23.000 --> 22:26.000]  He has been very close with life in London
[22:26.000 --> 22:29.000]  since his transfer to the UK in 2004.
[22:29.000 --> 22:32.000]  He said,
[22:32.000 --> 22:35.000]  I love life in London and I enjoy the vision
[22:35.000 --> 22:38.000]  of my children growing up here.
[22:38.000 --> 22:41.000]  They enjoy good morals and good behavior
[22:41.000 --> 22:44.000]  like the English youth.
[22:44.000 --> 22:47.000]  In England, the UK was considered
[22:47.000 --> 22:50.000]  to defend itself against accusations
[22:50.000 --> 22:53.000]  directed at him by racist words
[22:53.000 --> 22:56.000]  to the Frenchman Patrice Evra,
[22:56.000 --> 22:59.000]  who was not confident and aggressive.
[22:59.000 --> 23:02.000]  The British Union published a report
[23:02.000 --> 23:05.000]  on its official website on the internet
[23:05.000 --> 23:08.000]  that confirmed that Suarez's recognition
[23:08.000 --> 23:11.000]  was completely contradictory to Evra's.
[23:11.000 --> 23:14.000]  The report revealed that Suarez described Evra
[23:14.000 --> 23:17.000]  during a team match at Anfield Stadium
[23:17.000 --> 23:20.000]  in October last year.
[23:20.000 --> 23:23.000]  According to the report,
[23:23.000 --> 23:26.000]  Evra asked Suarez why he did so,
[23:26.000 --> 23:29.000]  and the latter replied in Spanish,
[23:29.000 --> 23:32.000]  Burqui to Eris Negro,
[23:32.000 --> 23:35.000]  which means Kazanji.
[23:35.000 --> 23:38.000]  Next news,
