no more to say the russian defense is reported to the plane crash that killed poland's president as warsaw continues with its own probe. despite a reluctance to accept the findings of this latest report polish prime minister says this will not spoil good relations with russia all the details from warsaw in just a few moments. from arms reduction to reset and u.s.

relations russia's foreign minister gives his friend out of twenty tense achievements. a valid turn at the u.s. refuse a deputation stick haiti despite the humanitarian crisis still unfolding in the caribbean state. you're watching r.t. live from the russian capital welcome to the program now poland's prime minister says his country will carry out its own investigation into april's plane crash which killed the polish president warsaw has been expressing anger over the official findings and claims russian air traffic controllers should have stopped the plane from landing of the alters of the report have defended their work and say no stone was left unturned artie's got there you know a lot of our reports from warsaw. poland is accepting part of the

responsibility for this milans plane crash and that of course is. a different statement from those that poland has made previously saying that an investigation should be conducted into why the russian side has. accepted responsibility that part of that part of the statement poland still hasn't changed despite the fact that the polish prime minister said that poland does accept part of the responsibility he says that it takes courage for their counterparts in this case russia of course in the investigation to do the same thing and they'd made the accept the other part of responsibility in the tragic plane crash so it. is not a compromise but a complete disclosure of the truth diplomacy and politics cannot hamper the presentation of the facts efforts to alter the facts the facts of facts of the rule

polish investigators working on adding the parts of the report to the missing changing what is already we assume responsibility for some of the causes of the crash for the courage and commitment to fairness needed this doesn't know the fact that the other side too should have the courage and readiness to expose the whole picture of what happened so despite the fact that poland is. asking russia to operate perhaps even the various international organizations in the process the interstate thirty which report of course has caused this. diplomatic discourse has already said that its report is crying out. as mentioned in the finding of the technical commission the investigation into the crash ended and the report is final i want to underline once again that in accordance with the international laws the body. investigating aviation incidents

must be absolutely impossible i must withstand political or any other interference of pressure and despite the fact that the polish prime minister's words do seem to suggest that the report published by the interstate aviation committee is not exactly well explained excepted here in poland he was very careful to underline that this tragic incident will not be a stumbling block in the good relations between moscow and warsaw that he looks forward to working closely with russia to complete the investigation in his own words and to find out every little fact pertaining to this terrible tragedy so that every i has been daughter had every team crossed of course this as you can imagine has been the top story in poland for the last few days of course saying that russian air controllers are also partly responsible for the crash in smile and that killed the polish president and his entourage saying that the air traffic

controllers should have stopped the pilots from by attempting to land should have forbidden them an opportunity and not granted them an opportunity to risk such a landing in such weather conditions however russian ministry officials transport ministry officials and various international aviation experts have said that an air traffic controller simply doesn't have that kind of authority given to me and i'm slightly surprised mileage remarks that the controller should have forbidden the plane to land it has been saved and proven many times that under the existing regulations it's up to the captain of the special international flight to take an independent decision only takeoff and landing you know the air traffic controllers simply didn't have the right to burn the landing you see the problem is not in being brave enough to admit some facts it's much more important that it's an unbiased objective investigation is carried out and so nobody. should be afraid of

its findings as they are crucial for the safety of future flights and for the avoidance of disasters like that the polar side at the moment doesn't seem to be willing to accept the report published by the interstate committee as unbiased and detailed enough to its liking of course we'll keep you updated with any developments from here the polish capital david lear man from the flight global magazine says warsaw may be looking for a scapegoat but he can't find fault with the russian report. i think that the polish government is i think desperate to put at least some of the blame in somebody else's direction but incidentally i completely go along with the russian verdict on the on the air traffic controllers hours incidentally the air traffic controller did not clear this aircraft to land he had with withheld clearance for the aircraft to land and he wouldn't have had permission to stop an international

flight like this one anyway if it had been a russian air force aircraft the controller could have told it to divert but an international flight especially of this status the controller would simply go along and do everything that he could to help the captain achieve a safe approach the whole flight was not planned in a very professional way incidentally i'm a former military transport pilot myself so i could put myself in these guys' position they didn't conduct. top of descent approach a pre descent briefing and therefore the crew instead of acting as a crew as a group they were acting as a series of individuals and a lot of mistakes resulted from this to be honest i don't think there is anything more that the russian controllers or the russian organizers of this event could have done one of the things that the russians would have liked the russian controllers at smolensk would have liked to have done was to offer more assistance

to the pilots during their descent but the pilots never asked for that assistance and the russian controllers assumed quite correctly as it turned out that the polish crew were carrying out a descent using their own on board navigation aids and they didn't make use of all the facilities on the ground that when you consider what level of a v.i.p. flight this was it's absolutely staggering i think if the polish really try and turn this one over again they're in for nasty surprises if they haven't already had them. former polish air force pilot mikhail caesar also says the crew is responsible for the tragedy the pilot's. mistakes and failures were the main reason of the accident they were also some in preparation of the visit i would say. not the prayers are. made on the military pilots

but the pilots. mistakes and failures were the main reason of the when you don't have enough experience because flying experience it's one thing life experience like you are at thirty five years old you don't have much life experience you are still of the issues you wanted to. do because the president is expecting you there and you want to show him that you are able to lead such. issues is not typical for fifty fifty five years because they. saved they will not land if it is not safe thirty five years old man is always very ambitious. well russia's foreign minister has outlined the main events that saved moscow's international policy in twenty ten so gay lover of said he is confident

russia and nato will be able to find common ground over a joint missile defense project he also said he has hopes for further improvement in relations with the united states or at least the target of a cover has more. the year two thousand and ten will go down in history as the year of radical change in the relations between the two countries also as the year of signing a new strategic arms reduction treaty and the russian foreign minister sergei lavrov said he's very happy with the work the two countries have done in two thousand and seventeen through their relations and what it takes for another successful years simply for the two countries to fulfill to fulfill the promises they made to each other last year this year also this year has been very important for washing terms of cooperation with the european union as many european leaders have expressed support in principle for that that a european security treaty proposed by the president would be different and russian foreign minister sergei lavrov has said the dr is prepared to be patient with dialogues on that one. as opposed to russia's proposal of

a new system of european security doesn't mean we're expecting our partners to prove it once we want to get together and talk about the problems of your atlantic security we haven't yet agreed on how to solve these problems some don't want to change anything they want to keep european security nato centric others who are more far sighted realize that nothing will work with cooperation with russia as an equal partner all we want is a deep discussion another problem that was in the spotlight off today's press conference is iranian nuclear program last year a bush era nuclear power plant built by russia began operating in technical mode and just in a couple of weeks time it will finally start bringing out tricity to every indian's home slava has said that's a russian principle agrees to the idea of international independent observers visits a new nuclear power plants a deal that was suggested by iran. visit to the plans for inspection in order to

ensure their peaceful purposes nonetheless lover has said that it's in no way should replace the six party talks over us so that he's got high hopes. for two thousand and eleven and tourism russian major corporation and he actually sees. the stages of the relations between russia and nato changing in the near future dramatically. at the russian needle summit in lisbon we agreed to move towards a strategic partnership this is a breakthrough in relations as a first time since your goal has been set on such a high level by the leaders of russia and who would like our relations with nato to be free from stereotypes of the past two thousand and ten has also been very important here in terms of that there are those relations because talks began on creating a joint and sorry missile defense shield in europe with the participation of russia and nato and of course this is something that needs to be worked on a lot this year according to

a russian foreign minister sergei lavrov as by achieving this anti-missile defense joint anti-missile defense system this will be a final blow to the heritage of the cold war that still remains in minds of some politicians according to law. and still to come on r.t. in just a few moments a new russian agent superstar ice alexander ovechkin appears to be the latest spy to go out into the cold but all is not what it seems. later in the program. now a year after the ravaging earthquake life on haiti is wracked by call raw political turmoil and painfully slow reconstruction but for those who found refuge in the united states the future is no brighter as many haitian immigrants are facing deportation back to the island artie's marina portnoy you spoke to one family which risks being divided. see a lot suffered most american women can relate to gin a montra built. a working wife in busy mother home with the kids while dad is at

work we lay back we work hard so we can provide the best for our children but are also those crime our family or family that care what we make. for the future if the u.s. government gets its way. just cya genine are and intone will become forever fatherless. engine a will enter the pool of single us mothers struggling to make ends meet after all you have the home of the cell and maybe get a home a little more leave the bills. at any moment jeanne montoursville the breadwinner and twenty five year u.s. resident can be torn away from his family. today the father of four works as a church custodian in manhattan tomorrow the haitian immigrant can be deported back . back to the poorest country in the western hemisphere rocked by an earthquake and

deepening humanitarian crisis. you know it would be going toward to port. you know it's. you know it's. it's not it's not a good it's community is community. and i was muslim. last year's seven point zero earthquake killed nearly three hundred thousand haitians and left more than one million homeless a tragedy so grave the u.s. issued an immediate suspension on deportations for his and immigrants yet last month the obama administration quietly lifted the ban resuming deportations for those with criminal convictions even those like jean montoursville who paid his debt to society serving a living years behind bars for selling drugs in the eighty's he was released from prison in two thousand whole now for morning news.

a violation of the conventions against torture and the un declaration of human rights sending someone back to a situation where they are likely to die or are faced a situation where they are. facing the possibility of death is potentially a violation of our obligations under international law yet according to immigrations and customs enforcement up to seven hundred haitians with criminal records will be sent back this year. to a nation wracked by violence food shortages and disease a prospect that brings a feeling of fear to this american family a family broken up not by divorce but by their own government earlier though that makes them think that obama really needs to take up the credit consideration the separation of family. because we believe children follow us and the lives of

fathers like jean are you believe in danger if or when his home becomes haiti marina port r.t. new york. and all live tonight for us r t v dot com any business sign for more than three hundred forty people on a ship stuck in icy waters off russia's foreign east coast for two months now you can follow the saga online. but also this cute creature has yet to make its debut at a german zoo but already it's taking the world by storm to our two dog cough for more on these stories. and some world news and grief right now to new zealand president ben ali has announced that he will not run for reelection it comes after ongoing violence that left more than twenty people dead across the country riots have been raging between protesters and police over food and fuel inflation and high unemployment. in his televised address the president also said prices for food

freeway ricky ross is a street legit he went from being a poor illiterate aspiring tennis star to one of the biggest drug dealers in los angeles history after being part of an international drug ring and making up to two million dollars a day he's starting over from scratch and trying to build another empire this time the legal way twenty years of prison have turned this former kingpin into a fully literate activist who is trying to make a difference by keeping kids from following in his footsteps today he says with

r.t. to talk about his rise and fall and to discuss his connection to the cia contra oversea ricky ross thank you for joining us today what role did the u.s. government play in bringing crack cocaine into l a's poor black neighborhoods the government needed this money to fight this world a new ground we're. going to send a nice says russia he gave the senate leases on hundred million dollars to fight with congress he cut off all the money from the contras so now the sandinistas had an event. reagan and bush had made the contras they appear pete. they felt that if russia took over nicaragua they would be too close to america they would be in our backyard. i believe that they

felt it was more valuable to sacrifice. a particular sector sector of america and a race of people in america and order to save the whole country so they let these guys open up pipelines in their low blando on norman messes. the rest of the crew to work within the ground connection because i knew about ten or fifteen different ones that was all inside of this contre organization. that was selling drugs so why am i wow in these guys or basically turn a blind eye because i don't think the government necessarily gave them the drugs or not but in a sense they sang to me because they turn a blind eye they knew that these guys were selling drugs but they did absolutely nothing about it i also believe that had they not let these guys sell drugs is possible i would have never become

a drug dealer what does that say about our government when they're looking the other way while a deadly substance is coming into our communities for the sake of fighting a communist regime in central america. says that our government will sacrifice of people to accomplish to go and this is not the first time that they've done that we've known numerous times in our history where they have sacrificed expressly the bagmen in that case it's tough to hear that the ends justify the means they felt it was more valuable for them to keep rush out of america you know and for america to keep its way of life do you think that the cia or any other sort of government agency is still helping to funnel drugs into america. well i mean if we look at afghanistan you know when taliban controlled. afghanistan the floor had one hundred was was almost zero point three and now it's you know one

hundred percent more than new it was at that time so. it makes you wonder i mean you know what is really going on how can the taliban control drugs and now america can't you know control you know heroin is on the rise and. and it's afghanistan heroin the cia connection to the contras and the huge influx of drugs into los angeles was an expose wasn't made public until journalists k. webb started to report on it gary was on a mission you know. he didn't approve what i did but he said if i was in prison all of the players should be in prison right there with me and that i should be used as a go you know he just it should be. level you know what i'm saying not to where. you got political poor you got money or. if you can justice. gary now in some speeches

gay web talked about how the da told them that what he was reporting on would put people's lives at risk now do you think that was just a scare tactic and are there parallels from what was happening then to what is happening right now today in the news we hear about week in leaks exposing all these u.s. military secrets and we also hear on the news that these secrets are supposedly putting people's lives at risk i mean talk about the similarities i mean our government is really out of control you know. we're really out of control nobody. i mean like fine wine wrong doing in our cases and stuff there was nobody that we could run to and say you know this guy's doing such and such and such that you know even with the crooked cops it was nobody we could go to. to express what was going on in these cops will be you know these cops busted my hero open with flashlights
