a look at their struggle for survival. how does the credits a wall of shorts and i guess moscow visit bring you the best scenes from the governor's rational capital adventure. u.s. secretary of state hillary clinton has been in belgrade trying to persuade serbia to recognize its breakaway territory of kosovo as an independent nation they show is one of several facing serbia as the former yugoslav nations seeks european union membership so she is downplaying the carrot of much sought after you membership the visit as part of clinton's talk of the balkans and follows a previous stop in bosnia and that she also tried to put pressure on the countries serbin minority to embrace political reform which will eventually strip them of their autonomy most served scattered around the former yugoslavia is still remember how nato sided with the muslims during the ninety's ethnic conflicts and can forgive the u.s. led bombings of several targets and may show the veil of each about its political

expert things the seven government and people are told in their goals for their country. we have to make some distinction between the government in belgrade to which was brought to power after all our approach. just over ten years ago in which nato powers definitely took sides so. it's a very nato friendly government if you want but when you come down to people i think they have completely different feelings especially on nato i don't think anyone wants to go into nato i mean the question is to me so who are they going to be defended against the soviet union no longer exists there is no warsaw pact i don't think there is any interest of conducting military operations in the balkans so i think nato is very unpopular there when it comes to you want to instill. think

of economic and political and cultural cultural considerations and that in a way makes sense but the sort of conditions the e.u. and the us are making does indicate that this is not an economic and cultural situation but one of political pressure to gain concessions out of the region what the us one sister controlled the region when its resources the position in boston and herzegovina has not improved people want jobs people don't just want talks of democracy and human rights frequently undefined people want what they already had then they had it it was part of yugoslavia this is an easily comparison base they want jobs they want freedom to travel. all they want to health so that functions this one doesn't function as well as the one

you were some of bosnia did so there is a definite comparison factor if the u.s. really wants well for the people and for the region then you should look at these very important factor that are very important in any state. and that was made a political expert on the balkans. their only young boys but a years of war have forced them to become the brave or the breadwinners of their families decades of conflict in afghanistan have left an entire generation fatherless and the country's card elsie's policy there has been amazing at going to children who have no choice but to take charge of their families. for a few hours each find and these three kids get to remember they still just children up. there kite flying is more than just a pastime it's a sport of skill or who lost or taught acro and for a few brief moments forget that their. in abject poverty. my name is once

a dream i'm the father of the house i will never forget one day there was no job i came home and there was no food my brothers and sisters and my mother went to sleep hungry was there he's only thirteen years old but as the man of the house his responsibilities start early at six in the morning. my sister goodbye. goodbye my brother. from the first born this is a typical poor kabul neighborhood children with runny noses duty feet and crawling stomachs every day was a dean takes his bucket and joins the tens of thousands of children heading to the country's streets to make the meager living washing cars but despite their stolen childhoods they are the lucky ones miles a year ago my dude was martyred he was working with the police and die during a rocket explosion. this is very very hard work i make about a dollar

a day sometimes the other boys are fighting with me they say they want to wash this car. is a piece of color is twelve he manages to bring a few dollars more into the home but it's barely enough to feed his mother and seven sisters so it's harder every day i wake up so early my house is very far from here and a good day i care about eight dollars but in some days there's no work yesterday it was no work so i go there but for some children it's easiest to come to this means a big lesson a class a playground a university of life. most parents don't want their children to come here to school that's because these young boys and girls are the only breadwinners in their families and spending just one hour in class could mean no food on the table that night fifty seven percent of the population of afghanistan is below twenty five years. majority of them they are born during the war and growing in the war without skills without. education for every one hundred million dollars of foreign money

spent in the military only seven million goes towards social projects even less to the to the international community is to understand how to pay and has to focus more on the children six million children are at risk in afghanistan of sexual abuse violence and harsh child labor and with precious little being done to help them afghanistan's future generations see little chance of their lives ever getting off the ground. kabul. a former georgian defense minister forced into exile after falling out with president saakashvili is trying to return to politics has helped found a new party called don't give up an alliance of georgia's main opposition leaders iraq a crush really was sacked in two thousand and seven for accusing georgia's leader of physically removing his opponents sparking protests in the capital tbilisi hundreds of thousands of people demanded his resignation but the protests were

broken up and he was re-elected a year later what other founders of the political alliance stressed they want to restore the ties they once had. but of course there are the program going to be more equal from ga ga's own interests demands that we look straight into the face of reality georgia will never be a successful country without normal relations with russia i see so in the interests of our people and all our friendly countries in the whole civilized world so the same does the improvement of relations with russia will become a basic principle for our political team has really regime leaves behind itself a tough heritage a broken territorial integrity and we should try to normalize the issue to reach success we should start dialogue with your cousins in a city and to restore trust otherwise we will not be able to move ahead only and trust is the basis for future integration. let's check some other international headlines in brief the number of days. well the train crash in eastern ukraine has

a job that he was very much able to appreciate despite some serious matters at hand and on the table up for discussions but he joked his way through the entire visit say that not only is moscow an impressive and amazing place to be one of the most impressive cities actually bed but in many other jobs. dean at the kremlin usually offers the very best for those lucky enough to be invited but to rescind banquet rather unexpected guest in the shape of a water home make it an appearance on a platter the discovery was made by the governor of the central russian very german who got rather more than he expected when talking into his siloed so it happened during a reception by president dmitry medvedev for german president christian ball so the governor rushed to post the picture on twitter of the woman joining behaved over the photo was later deleted but for complaining the governor told russian tabloid

komsomolskaya pravda that the unexpected ingredient showed at these this time it was fresh the face and we were. next to meet the russian who's in charge of the world's fight against indigo drugs our interview with you if you don't invest coming up shortly.

well so is your if adult of is the new head of the u.n. office a fighting drugs and crime is for those of thanks for speaking to r.t. what targets have you set for the agency i took or were addressed to three weeks ago and i believe that it is possible to give a fish and protest of this rooke in the united nations you know to see. under my predecessor has accumulated a great deal of international support and expanded the range of for. including drugs and crime and prevention of terrorism but there was always room for for the improvement and. after having consulted to. our major stakeholders member states senior management of the un partners in other international going as

asians i think at some point to i will be in the position to come up with proposals how to move ahead and first of all how to make for a small productive and even more cost effective the world's main opium produce afghanistan hall of production this year why do you say there's no room for false optimism. well of course. there are some targets and targets. quite clear we need to excel we need to to enlarge it to beat this as far as. illicit doctor african kids concerned we need to set comprehensive programs for different regions take advantage than just last week we issued again drudge report to twenty good news is that the production of four pm decreased to almost fifty percent but that is due only to natural factor disease this that

affected the crops but the cultivation is unchanged and since prices are growing so it means that the promise have additional stimulus to cultivate the poppy so we need to have a comprehensive strategy which would. include their distinct from the education to . give culturists. participation zero for regional states extrajudicial states so there should be comprehensive strategy to doing that but we believe that it could be done more and by the way that is also a political will to the region stop him as a began istana it's about ninety percent of all world production and cultivation and. three major routes sort of say story around sort of all that educates down central asia and russia and just on to western europe and of course

in terms of and it's central america and south america but you could really. in terms of. what is now unfortunately is becoming more and more spread out in different parts of the rural synthetic. drax unfortunately as there are no rules because it can be produced anywhere at any time by anybody so the threat is small to press or to multi component and that's why the reaction of the international community should be also comprehensive your office has helped to prosecute some somali pirates but there's still no globally accepted response when will we get that the international community. is still unable to come to an agreement to bulge of forms of the prosecution of the pirates in the absence of such agreement where helping communities helping and you general countries like

kenya seychelles and even somalia some parts of somalia are like some a little land and land to get nice persecutions and even. to go to organize jails for four for four convicted pirates it's not easy because the regional countries as they are facing can no much problems there. your system is over. charged overloaded and the jails are overcrowded in kenya for instance. five times more than it has been planned at the beginning so it's. a great deal of. good response from the neighboring states but still there are a lot of practical problems you say almost every country in the world plays a part in human slavery and trafficking for sakes that's the key issue for you.

sam what unit you see is taking very close to its heart and we're planning to set a new. area global trust fund in new york next month. which sure would be aimed at assisting. him so few months trafficking as it is a very important indeed. but here but he says it's a good illustration of how the international cooperation is informed because it's impossible to tackle the problem of for human trafficking was a corporation all for all contrarious upstream and downstream transit contras so we need to have very clear understanding what the what we're doing and i believe that this area will continue to develop and will continue to pick up the most attention to it transparency international puts in one hundred forty six place for corruption next to sierra leone and zimbabwe and you don't think that's fair well there are

different assessments that are different on a different. day to us. i hope that the new mechanism which was established quite recently which is a framework of international convention against corruption the peer review mechanism will provide more objective picture of overall rolled situation because it's fair it's balanced and it could be liable. forty two thousand americans die each year since one thousand. seven hundred thousand people. and thirty two thousand will kill themselves cancer in all its forms kills five hundred sixty thousand of us here parkinson's is even more devastating it kills over eight hundred seventy thousand americans every year.

sure is that so much of. a lot of people here you look at an alternative media outlets are challenging the dominance of traditional heavyweights in the language why are viewers looking for alternative.

had again this is r.c. a quick check of the headlines. and knocks it treasure hunt r.c. joins russia's expedition team on a quest for evidence to support the country's claim to the regions of vols natural resources. also there is a key breakthrough in the investigation into last month's blast in the southern city of logic of cause which killed nineteen people police say three of them lost in miles around directs the others have been killed in a shootout. and u.s. secretary of state hillary clinton is in the balkans on a mission to persuade serbs to trade their autonomy for nato membership. as the
