overhead last police detained instigators of the clashes at what started out as a peaceful commemorative ramp to know that. some people had reacted very violently for the end of the box i was good and it was a book i do believe that some of the dissatisfaction is understandable but it is unacceptable when we have aggression with firecrackers that those into flames and ordinary people sort of police have already arrested those responsible for the murder of your spirit over and will arrest others everyone is equal before the law the fang question was shot dead last week during a mass brawl most of those gathered in a city's minute square simply wanted to pay their respects and demand a full investigation into the death of one of their own but take into account the fact that the suspect in this homicide is from the north caucasus and the story it's an ugly nationalist twist according to officials members of the country's various nationalist movements and not football fans instigated the violence by you

but by then we saw that radical protesters joined those spots at fans honoring the dead men and insides of mass protests and fighting the police must act tough but within the law and they did everything they had to act and as the situation unfolded. the clashes didn't stop with just the capital either petersburg rally in memory of city to quickly turn into a fight between protesters and riot police with many injured and over fifty detained so is this nationalist violence for violence sake or is there had been a genda nationalist far right is working very hard to mobilize the book into a different nationalist and the new nazi groups doing a lot of propaganda with a lot of success the fans who are or are not exactly blameless themselves just a few days ago spartak supporters disrupted their team's match in slovakia

economic growth of the future where the advantages of to more aware of the writers and the artists and musicians of tomorrow this is causing at the core of society those that created this economic mess that we're in are the ones who should pay for it's a transaction tax a wealth tax a tax on the very wealthiest people in our society would help to close the gap there is no need to basically hit the poorest people in our society in order to pay off this debt in march in time we need a more sensible more rational more humane approach to the whole issue we're not getting that from the government at the moment that's why the students are on the streets that's why the some of your comparisons and crucially that's why so many others trade unions and people work in the public sector and people are worried about their services are also joining the students in the demonstration. meanwhile in arlon the government is cutting the salaries of the prime minister and his cabinet and the country's minimum wage in the latest set of austerity measures the

eurozone is struggling to save the single currency as evil plans to put the banks through another round of stress tests well sam bauman from the adam smith institute says the euro's days could be numbered but it wouldn't take a genius to see that there is a crisis approaching two years on a major continent wide crisis i think it is probably because of the government debt but i think the bailout in ireland has failed to combat markets the irish borneo to still extremely high and we see in portugal and spain creeping up words as well so i think we're probably going to see quite a difficult year for the if not the end of the eurozone in the coming months i think we need to start looking to the future looking at how countries can return to their own currencies turn to a way that they're able to get their way out of these kind of high or low interest kind of bubbles that the euro was creating a position where they have a currency that's suitable for their own economies rather than for france and germany which is really what the eurozone project is all about well public sentiment is turning on bankers for wreaking economic have around the world talk

show host laurie harmfulness also known as the resident asked people in new york if the rich should pay their share. should the rich pay more in taxes this week let's talk about that one percent of the population of this country makes more than all the rest of us combined and i think they should be helping the rest of us alone do you think that's a form of penalizing them for their success no not at all if you don't have rich people you don't have poor people so you think that everyone should be taxed same way we should have a flat tax like most countries in europe the tax burden is ridiculous for everyone not just the rich and i think we should not have class warfare we need to do something about the deficit and because there's no reason to give them a break they paid midlist taxes in the used to under clinton and that wasn't tough

times if you were one of the top one percent would you feel the same way apps yes i believe i would warren buffett does and he's at the top of the top so i don't lot of people say it's a way of punishing them for their success because they listen to fox news we should come up with something is fair and equitable for everybody i don't know there was necessarily have to ask people to pay more just because they make more but perhaps the structure could be made more fair for everybody so that is more equitable across the board that's what i would like to see do you think that we could ever create a structure that would satisfy everyone no what kind of car would be your dream car . or. if you had a lamborghini how would you feel driving it past someone that's homeless a pick them up and go for. the you wouldn't feel too bad about it that soon get over it i think but. do you think we in this country value money and seek to be rich more than people in other countries way too much is being rich something that

you aspire to i aspire to be happy so if for me having money at least the happiness . or if it doesn't then no it's not a goal of mine do you think that people in this country focus on being rich more than other places yeah i'm sure i think it's just part of our culture whether or not you believe the rich should pay more in taxes the bottom line is that before you formulate your opinion you might want to consider all of those out there who are truly less fortunate than yourself. there are to you live from moscow still to come on the program for you waging a wiki leaks war. of cyber attacks on visa and master card after the credit card giant stop in donations to the whistleblowers website that still no money to pass to brace hate groups. and malaria kills a million people a year around the world but find out why some in india say the real number is much

higher. but first as election fever grips the nation kosovo serbs are facing an uneasy choice nearly three years after its split from serbia the self-proclaimed state is holding its first parliamentary poll alice cooper reports from pristina. this is a region still starkly divided along ethnic lines most notably between the majority albanian population they make up some ninety percent of the population here in the minority. one hundred thousand people. around fifty percent of the electorate who vote in elections today but the majority of them will be albanians. divided they say they do want to vote to change their everyday lives they say they face daily persecution and they live in very poor living conditions they suffer high unemployment a lack of basic amenities like electricity and there's a lack of freedom of movement across the region here but they don't necessarily

want to engage in the cause of an electoral system and of course there is then the coup for brains to boycott these elections so what's expected to happen is that living in the north of the region and who is still directly linked to serbia by rodin very much looks to belgrade who not vote in these elections but. living in the something place and that will cause holes geographically from where they have no choice to engage in the selection of votes if they are to change their lives and that they will go to the polls today so integration remains a long way off the wall many albanians here are very optimistic about these elections billing them as historic in the start of a new unified era that sense of optimism is not shed among the serbian community there are several crucial problems that need to be addressed here and cost. of unemployment according to some estimates it runs as high as forty to fifty percent

of the population the current unemployed and cost of zero has europe's youngest. the economy here is one of the weakest in europe and then there's crime and corruption food to be endemic at every level here in the in kosovo and then of course the candidate list itself in. several candidates from across the major parties who are currently under investigation for crimes ranging from corruption to peace of office and indeed one candidate the leader of the a a k that's the alliance of the future of tradition because those third biggest party is actually in the hague you get the moment on a retrial in front of the war crimes tribunal that is around much how to deny and you legs that's the e.u.'s rule of law mission here in members of their anti corruption n.g.o.s he said that these men should not be standing in these elections if they discredit and undermine the legitimacy of this vote. well marco

gases from the british serbian alliance for peace told r.t. that kossovo has a mano ethnic policy which serves the outcast casa or. today stands as a state a full state based on ethnic cleansing and cemented by nato bombs the serbians who remain live in fear of their lives they are literally living ghettos they're unable to get out and the only reason they still survive in kosovo and are not fed to the organ trade that the albanians have fed so many serbians to in the past is because nato likes to keep living serbs in kosovo as good publicity but they are there they are there just as a publicist see to create the impression across what is a multi-ethnic society cause or isn't is a mono ethnic society which has destroyed the lives of hundreds of thousands of people and the leadership in kosovo consists of criminals who have moved into politicians as western intelligence agencies have said themselves so everyone knows

what's going on in kosovo but the idea is to. lie about what's going on cos or to a bigger world audience. u.s. justice department is looking into cyber attacks on companies that have cut off donations to wiki leaks the whistleblower supporters have been waging an online war against firms like visa master card and pay pal the company's all suffered online outages after we can be founder julian assange bank account was frozen he's currently in jail in london fighting extradition to sweden on sex crime allegations the hackers are promising more attacks meanwhile is going to chip cam reports the firms which have cut off weekly leaks are continuing to support other controversial groups. the u.s. government has presented no charges against julian a song but that hasn't stopped government officials from reportedly putting pressure at the highest level to cut off weiqi leaks money supply a senior executive of america's money transfer giant pay pal said the state

department had written to the company claiming the online whistleblower was involved in illegal activities so pay pal along with massive hard and be so are no longer accepting cash donations with a controversial website it's the threat of this impact on national security and would you say that in the united states everybody. you know what's their parents and they do what they're told. and so i think that it's a misconception in some cases that people think that the u.s. is purely a money driven society it's not the government has certain parag it is particularly over national security no court ruling no legal procedures were needed to crackdown on the media organisation later pay-pal backtracked on its statement it had acted upon the government's request massa card and visa were most the face of on the subject but the general explanation they give for not accepting donation payments

for we kill it says that the site quoting courage is promote facilitates or instruct others to engage in illegal activity but on the other hand neither master card more has any problems processing donations for say nuku clark's clan a racist movement and his tsunami a history of extreme violence with the goals of racial segregation and white supremacy and yet it takes seconds to make a donation to the klan a number of senators including the chairman of the homeland security committee joe lieberman were quick to pat those companies on the back for cutting off cash to weak elites but americans cracked down on the organization that appears to be fighting for transparency and freedom of speech leaves many asking what happens to american values of freedom of expression these are very difficult things for us to face as americans this is not what we believe in our country we believe it's

a country that respects the markers you lot are going to be shown that we're the actress who is not easy but us politicians do not shy away from flashing their democratic values when rooting for a chinese fighter for freedoms he won the nobel peace prize so there you see the governor of west of the so-called international community. is targeted for having released information. what what you should be doing and you have a case where the same people will be pushing for a candidate which is that this is the within the people's republic of china so they are playing double standards with that regard some even suggest why not give the price to julian a song. freedom of speech will surely. be a rational explanation for giving it's to wiki leaks others can't help asking if us officials are so down and we kill leaks why aren't they after the new york times in

the same way or the british newspaper the guardian or german is there speaking those are the we kill its partner papers one other incredible thing about the prosecution is that so many people are falsely reporting that wiki leaks has dumped two hundred fifty thousand documents that's not true at all they only were putting stuff up on their web page when either the new york times or der spiegel. or the guardian or us were putting up. so what could possibly be the legal rationale for going after we can leaks and not going after the new york times there are a lot of unanswered questions about one thing is on the surface the u.s. shows it can interpret democratic values however it wants depending on its games ganesh check on our t.v. washington d.c. . well moscow says it will demand that nato drops in secret agreement to defend the baltic states and poland against russia the alliance plans were revealed by wiki

leaks after the nato moscow summit in lisbon which was hailed as the start of a new era in relations at the time both sides formally declared they no longer post a threat to each other russia's foreign minister sergei lavrov says the latest revelations put a question mark over nato sincerity as much as it was so disillusioned with the leaks suggest planning of military action to repel for example a russian attack on the baltic states we paid special attention to that it means on one hand nato was talking with us about partnership and on the other was taking decisions to protect itself against. there is a question about when nato will soon see it when it's openly talking with us about partnership when it secretly deciding amongst itself some quite different things. meanwhile poland who nato was planning to protect against moscow pledged to help patch things up between russia and the alliance there's arents came from the polish president komorowski after talks with his russian counterparts mean to meet in

they've got problems and if you get russia which does have a relatively stable economy and some finances russia can be perhaps more helpful on the inside than on the outside. in india it's claimed that malaria is killing tens of thousands more people than health officials had first thought as huge numbers of deaths in rural areas go unrecorded it's various questions as to whether the world health organization is not simply underestimating global malaria death rates are carbon sink has more. they named yes eastern state of bihar one more victim succumbs to malaria it's a treatable infection yet it still takes more lives in the media than h i've seen. that malaria has spread everywhere near our village no medical teams come to help us and hospitals are far away poor people like us a dying at this hospital and but not many patients believe they have the bad aside

to infection down a few pounds a south and i have a very high temperature and i think i have now larry and i've come to the doctor for treatment because many people in my neighborhood have malaria a new study has found that malaria kills more than thirteen dimes the number of people caught in the estimated by the world health organization since many malaria deaths occurred at home and included lydia's they don't get recorded so research just visited families and asked them to describe what had happened to the victims a method known as autopsy we estimated that something like four percent of the deaths between one life and sixty nine years of age were due to malaria and if you multiply that percentage by the national number of deaths at those eight if you get two hundred thousand deaths before age seventy in india it's a staggering number is specially compared to the world health organization's estimate of just fifteen thousand then more fatalities it disputes the studies

saying. responders could mistake muti is commonly known symptoms it is true that you can confuse malaria deaths with other causes of fever however the w.h.o. accepts the use of verbal autopsy poor as to meeting childhood deaths from malaria in africa so bit puzzled why they would think a method would work in one continent and not three thousand miles away in another here most medical stuff in the indian hospitals agreed the number of malaria deaths is far more than the w.h.o. figure. as india faces this killer disease it's important for the government down the w. we true knowledge the scale of the problem only then can the upgrade their disease control strategies and resources to fight malaria effectively in all its forms but in seeing our d. . let's take a look at some world news in brief for you this hour a suicide bomb that's rocked the city of ramadi killing at least seventeen people
