if it brings us closer together. it's too soon to draw a line under the cap in case work is still underway to find more places where polish prisoners of war buried as some died while in transit to the prison camps there also continued efforts to gather information about the victims of stalin's reign of terror to a buried in mass graves together with the poles if the bells were to own a every single person buried at midnight and canton they would have to toll continuously for many days.

hello and welcome this is our city coming to you live from hear us live in the century shevardnadze and i know god is just pulse here let's have a quick look at all the top stories this hour on t.v. as things us remember civic tim self the nine eleven attacks those who gave the merchants iain's after the tragedy still the government has turned its back on them i knew it was on hundreds of rescuers say their health was ruined at ground zero. in russia's republic of sets is burying victims of thursday's suicide bombing and grieving mourners insist they won't let the terrorists have their way. to pull across europe march in protest against excessive surveillance by a story since in business during big brother does more to intrude on their privacy than to protect them. and alter a global policy forum so here in russia's yellow sea level let me guess stay on for

less of celebrations as the city blocks its with a new install them. once again we're coming to you today from russia's yugoslav where you can see the ancient cities kremlin just behind us and we'll be bringing you all day on the festivities for yet us levels millennium and also the results of the global policy forum was just drawing to a close here all that to come for you throughout the year and all to you but first let's have a look at top top stories this. the day america will never guess as to us more victims of the nine eleven attack many who gave first aid straight after those tragic events are feeling abandoned they say their own government has left them struggling by themselves with illnesses contracted as a result of the rescue operations overseas were reported that some of them. gary

white was an american hero in two thousand and one did you actually get diagnosed as being directly six to nine eleven in two thousand and ten the nine eleven first responder represents an exploding health crisis u.s. officials have failed to address its tolly across the page course enormous sarcoma gall bladder cancer liver cancer the retired n.y.p.d. detective spent six months sifting through world trade center debris and clouds of toxins later resulting in asthma sleep apnea post neurological problems and two strokes the first one was massive. i was paralyzed i lost command of my speech. i had to learn to walk and talk again the police department denies his illnesses are linked to nine eleven still fits leaving the twenty three year veteran with mounting medical debt this one wants fourteen over fifty three and

a daily dose of fifteen medications and inflammation pills pills to stop the cramping in my legs like walk blood pressure medications the worst attack on u.s. soil took place here on september eleventh a day when nearly three thousand people lost their lives in a matter of hours and in the ninth years that have followed nine hundred first responders have died victims of their own courage n.y.p.d. sergeant michael ryan was diagnosed with three types of cancers before losing his battle at just forty one years old eileen ryan is just one of many widows who lost her world with husband post nine eleven all these men and women that are fighting for their life right now it's a progress it's it's time it's watching a loved one. disintegrate in front of your face and just the fight to stay alive and it's

a fight that can break even the strongest john jeff was diagnosed with throat cancer hospital bills one million dollars we do so much overseas and i'm not saying not to do it we're a powerful nation we should lead by example but we're not leaving my example here. we're not leaving by example here when you turn your backs on the nine eleven emergency responders those who sacrificed for the country now left struggling alone marina port r.t. new york. to redeem the. walls twice buried under the rubble when she was first given when she was giving first aid at new york's world trade center on september eleventh two thousand and one a muslim american she you know says islam is being used for political gain in the u.s. really what this shows in the most disturbing part about this debate is it's become an us against them that is the most troubling aspect because we are all americans

again we're signing collective guilt on the one billion muslims that practice this faith on the acts of nineteen millan's that basically defiled islam and practiced a perverted version of islam for a political agenda and now to assign blame on all muslims is completely incorrect and inaccurate but i think the great majority fear islam because they don't understand it they don't understand the faith they don't understand that islam is a religion of peace islam does not condone suicide islam does not condone murder and we have to make sure that we are not blurring the lines of the constitution and saying there are gray areas of the constitution that apply to muslim americans the beauty of this country is the constitution and that all americans despite faith despite race are afforded the same civil liberties.

plus going washington are close to signing new agreements on fighting terror so says the u.s. coordinator for counterterrorism daniel benjamin who also praised the level of cooperation between the two countries dimitri cohen all of he's the vice president of the political center based think tank total t. that terrorism is no longer the number one problem for the international community it was following nine eleven. i dk the nearly decade is a good time to. make some of the results and thing is that today significant efforts of the international community and of the leading nations of the special services has actually resulted in the series progress in fighting terrorism terrorism is becoming number less five or six on the global agenda it's no longer the most of the four dystopic. it's slightly disappearing from

the global agenda i mean if you look at the number of terrorist attacks in the recent years that has diminished and i think significant work has been down to who in the grassroots oh. there are still some foreign mercenaries in the food so the you know the focus is those people who got trading you know kind of camps all over the world in somalia in afghanistan and some of the countries in general the nature of terrorism and all the focus is east rightly slide the difference as much as to be down to ensure that young people on the broad people on the want recruited by the terrorists and by the terrorist network of course one of the most let's say positive outcomes is that the world has managed to prevent this bleed between civilization and the greases civilization and be at there in so york

in two thousand and one they needed to be to do with the global a d by but with the civilization. and that was dmitri vice president of the political center in. civil liberties defenders across europe are expected to demonstrate against what they see as a big brother approach to surveillance by government and businesses they say security cameras and other monitoring devices intruding on their private lives rather than protecting society. has been following the preparations for the demonstration in berlin. thousands of people here and berlin and throughout europe will be taking to the streets to demonstrate their slogan is read i'm not fair and protesting against surveillance by governments and by businesses our position is to say that security and freedom walk hand in hand they don't post to each other this

sort of mass demonstration would have been inconceivable nearly twenty years ago but of course in two decades our technologies have advanced hugely now every single time you go on the internet your employer or your input or provider can trace what websites you have been to every single time you walk on the streets you are being recorded by multiple c.c.t.v. cameras every single time you make a purchase this financial information gets logged to your bank and once again that authorities what this requires is great the trust from the government but of course these people are saying you cannot trust the government specifically because once and for ration used to be kept by your national government now increasingly it's being collected in europe and two thousand and nine something called the stockholm program was implemented make no mistake about that this is a major change in the way that data is being collected about every citizen in the european union and sort of just being kept at the national level it's now all going to be gathered at these huge european wide databases what these protesters want to

know is why who's going to be accountable for how this information is used there's no transparency about how this information is used so they're saying that the european union has no right to simply control all of its hundreds of millions of citizens of course there have been several problematic cases in germany itself a particularly egregious case of an employer spying on its own employees including the extremely private details such as the one likely to get pregnant then go on pregnancy leave and so on which was considered totally inappropriate particularly considering the history of germany the fact that it's part of an orphanage terry energy with its own secret police that was. laureus world wide so what these people are saying that not only should we not rule out any further murders we should abandon the ones that we have got we should stop having nation wide and european wide databases where everybody goes to school where everybody travels where everybody is employed asking for all of this information to be rolled back to be given back to the privacy to be restored and if we want to live in

a democracy we need to risk a little democracy means risk. democracy needs risk of course the government is unlikely to agree with these demands they keep saying that this information has to be collected in order to fight terrorism in order to fight crime and as always they say that if you have done nothing wrong you have nothing to fear from the government. russia's republic of north is paying last respects to victims of a deadly car blast that hit the capital on thursday five more injured have just been taken to hospitals following the explosion seventeen people were killed in the attack and more than one hundred sixty were wounded as new details emerge investigators say several policemen could be guilty of negligence for say they stopped the attackers car for an inspection before the explosion but didn't check the boat. reports from the logic of class.

logic of cause is grieving over the last and you can feel sadness everywhere soon as the market area has been open people started coming to the scene they are bringing flowers lighting candles they are talking to each other they were member in what has happened and they are also trying to find out what happened with the people the mail today funerals of eleven victims are taking place in logic of course this is the second day your funerals here and several of the dead will be buried in georgia and ukraine through the whole night people have been praying in churches in logic of course they will lead the candles in one of the buildings people decided to do the same or they just joined with their mourning and you could see how candles are lining up one by one from the first to the seventh floor eleven people in severe condition or have been taken to moscow by the emergencies ministry

i've met with the relatives of the victims and here is my report to lives hand in hand interrupted at the moment when yes i'm on my man and have total a grandson know which had been at the political class central market they say the boy was quarrelling with his brother about riding a bike so grandma promised to buy a little new one a moment later their dreams were wiped out by the blast. we were the markets i went into a shop as my mother wife in tucson stayed outside and then an explosion i rushed out and saw all four of them on the ground i lost two of them my son who died was one and a half years old my three year old son is now in surgery doctors are fighting for his life there were a lot of people in the market stair fine. rhetoric and yes among met all most every morning before go into the market that day rafik i felt sick and stayed home yes

a man went alone just held grapes and never came back. the father and his one and a half year old son who died and this is his wife she was injured and hands and this is the one who died. twenty years ago when life in georgia became difficult to estimate as a raise like many in her village quiet and hospitable yes a man packed his things and headed to the logic of cars her small family makes their leaving from selling fruit and vegetables and a year ago moved closer to the central market used to work closely to show other ones to the selling grapes another was selling lemons there was a risk with them who hold the herd but she was badly injured so leg was ripped off her chair diabetes and they couldn't stop the blood crying over the last many people and logic of course refused to believe the blast really happened the main question for manner remains why. these are barbarians monsters not humans these people have neither nationality nor humanity nor decency i think it

was deliberately planned to bring this tragedy to the republic this is the sixth time something like this has happened they choose big holidays to cause racial hatred but they want to achieve it. grief and sorrow has united the people and logic of cause russians to say towns ukrainians and every is all bring flowers to the scene and then i blot to help the injured. the glass is cracking under the feet of those who come to the gates of the central market. isn't the out just choice interrupted only by those claiming to know a pair in the area people try to stay closer to each other as if this close this can help them to live through the tragedy they had of the federal security services reports that three people are detained more details in religion this is what we know that one of the security guards at the entrance gates of the central market didn't lead or at the car go through he was inspecting the car something seemed

weird probably and are and the driver had to turn the vehicle and just moments later the car exploded this resulted in less are people being injured during what it off because this is all information that we have so far the federal security services says that investigation is still going on. well today as you can see we're again coming to you from the russian city of where the second global policy forum has just wrapped up the event brought together some of the world's finest minds as katrina now reports. well the one thing is still to be seen what the outcome of these four will be but one thing is obvious it was a direct and honest and open dialogue between the president his supporters some of the kremlin's most fierce critics as well as to them in particular the topic of this year's forum global policy forum and. seemed the most teasing democracy and

diversity five democracy experiences around the world the forum was held on to the patronage show of the russian president himself and the masses she was standing by the same to us quite clear it's time to sit at the same table to stop just criticizing russia to start to communicate interact and to find global solutions now the three main things the top three words which we have for the two days of the forum modernization democracy and efficiency is a very easy things to understand on the one hand but on the other the challenge is how to achieve these goals and there seem to be no consistency about it and this is what the forum is about mitchum a bit of state been has been that nothing is very straightforward these states and you can't really attach an experience of one country to another you have to look. at the countries very specific ways of moving forward the countries background the country's history as well the central topic of the forum democracy analysts

disputed on what is democracy in the first place and whether it can be described with any adjectives with any attributions the president made better has been saying that democracy is a process in the first place and that is just not a term and as for russia he reminded. his guests that about russia's very specific way of democratization he said that the nine hundred ninety s. instead of perspire attend liberty as we each reformers promised to the people brought. poverty to the houses of money and this is where we control the sirat the word democracy in russia stems from but on the other hand he has said that the democratic institutions started to be formed in russia in the very nine hundred ninety s. and they've also been developing and he said that he personally believes at turning point in its history russia made the right choice. he said listen i strongly

disagree with those who say there's no democracy in russia and that there's authoritarian tendencies here it's not true that russia is a democracy beyond any doubt it's young it's immature it's still not perfect and experience but it's a democracy nonetheless there's a way to go but we're ready to work on it in some countries that democracy is being imposed but it doesn't work that way and we've seen many examples of that democracy and modernizations are the only signposts possible for russia these were this was the message the president has been sending to bring these for him but all the talk about democracy is a moot point if a country doesn't want denies itself the president believes that now is the town for civil society to help modernize the country because the state tried to do it all on its own in the past and this model didn't work. that was our correspondent. so the forum is over but we have a lot more scheduled for us yes love is gearing up for a big party. this weekend the city turns fell's and entering its second millennium
