6:01 pm
it's two am in moscow i match reza good to have you with us here on r t our top story the management at russia's domain dead of the airport faces a criminal investigation after a suspected suicide bomber was able to carry out a devastating attack on monday president medvedev says it was poor attention to security that led to the blast at the country's busiest airport thirty five people were killed around one hundred eighty injured by the explosion in the international arrivals area it's russia's worst terrorist atrocity since the twin suicide attack rocked the moscow metro system last march more than one hundred people caught up in the airport blast are being treated in hospitals across the capital caught up with two british passengers who passed through the arrivals hall minutes before the blast. the harrowing scenes from the name and the blast hit the days
6:02 pm
he witnessed the attack it's a memory that way and they fussed. for tragedy. after. the blast hit it peak time is around thirty flights with t.t. lands the bum at st time to cause maximum devastation doing. something serious just come pretty close to starboard i say ships are the way to. go for it was hard but there was a two point three three car back sometime. very soon. yet less than twenty four hours later and the and put is again fully operational its resilience that many people fail is a commendable trait that the russian people are counting get on with as it is
6:03 pm
exactly the sort of artichoke peter duncanson trashing president invaded found in no one section tens that they were sponsible will be held accountable. to our society and our state in general has once again been brutally challenged we need to do everything for the perpetrators of this crime to be identified and brought to justice we should deal unceremoniously with those who resist they should be killed on the spot. as many people are now left fighting for their lives in hospitals around moscow people have rarely seen eighteen blood and ensuring the victims and their families receive all the help they need as investigators now work to establish exactly who is behind the attack the finger of blame his will and on the airports and transport. as you can imagine security measures have now been. always mandatory now they are and there are serious questions being asked as some
6:04 pm
measures were being implemented seen punishments for what the president his security breaches could be just around the corner but some feel that when it comes to terrorism the main weapon is the refusal to be intimidated operations may have returned to normal people still age and active remembrance and a mark of respect for those who lost their lives in the attack. on. the deadly blast in moscow's main airport has sparked international condemnation and once again drawing the world's attention to the problem of global terror earlier we spoke with russia's ambassador to the un vitaly churkin. well what we have felt and seen here in the united nations is an overwhelming expression of condolences sympathy and support to russia after this terrorist attack at the dome of the other airport the secretary general of the united nations made a statement condemning this attack and some colleagues point out that this time the
6:05 pm
target of the terrorists was an international airport and that there are foreign foreigners among the victims so in their mind it even firmer establishes the context it more clearly shows. that there is manifestations in russia a report of the general challenge of international terrorism so it is something which is seen as a broad international challenge not the particularly. isolated as a sort of a russian phenomenon because of the track record of terror is at tacking anywhere they can put together this kind of attack and planning as a broad international network so i don't see this latest tragedy as something which reflects on the russian reputation and i'm sure that life will go back to normal seven one saying i think we in the international community have to remember is that
6:06 pm
we should not be deterred by those terrorist attacks from conducting business as usual from conducting life as usual and i think this is the prevailing sentiment here in the united nations along with the outrage over what has happened or what the that there is have done the idea the airport defense expert magnus ranstorp says the security services need to employ more very detection methods. it's a very soft target it's a high priority target as well for for terrorist because it is the main hub of course the k'nex russia with with the rest of the world so i think that it is interesting that there were warnings beforehand and whether they are true or not we have to see on the other hand it's a very difficult area to to secure entirely there has been a lot of discussion not just in russia but also elsewhere that security is becoming too predictable that the x. ray machines are not very effective possibly one of the more innovative ways is of
6:07 pm
course to to support behavior to have a monitoring behavior that's taking place for example at heathrow airport by the british aviation authority so there are ways in which you can better perhaps create a level of uncertainty for whoever may do this and and perhaps lead to early interventions you have the two thousand and fourteen winter olympics and i think to get the security in order there for this is much more perhaps more important because it may have an impact internationally as to the security of the games and i think this is also a time to forge closer cooperation for example between russia and other countries in relation to intelligence exchange in relation to working together to try to not only deal with the tactical intelligence issues but also to try to find ways to mediate some of these conflicts the lead to to to terrorism being a symptom of problems the bloody scenes the domodedovo have parallels to
6:08 pm
a brutal computer game it controversially involves a character who kills civilians at an imaginary moscow airport artie's lauren lyster looks at how fair to see may have become reality a terrorist attack kills dozens of innocent people in creates chaos at a moscow airport fact. or fiction it's the scenario being played out here in this popular american video game sold worldwide call of duty modern warfare two doves no russian in this mission the player goes on a terrorist regime page hoping to massacre civilians in a fictitious moscow airport it may have seemed too gruesome and tragic to become troops were it not for the very real events seen here at the doma judge of o. airport more than thirty people have been killed more than one hundred eighty injured in what investigators believe was a terrorist attack sars
6:09 pm
a video game version a lot more people have been involved in this violent video game was released in november of two thousand and nine by the american company activision and in just a few months sales had surged asked one billion dollars now even for people that didn't download the game just a simple youtube search where you type in no russian can reveal that segment right here this one has eight hundred seventy thousand views and with so many people seemingly downloading playing or watching this game you have to consider whether or not anybody ever thought that this game could so closely resemble reality the issue is we need to know if terrorists or extremists are using these videos or these d.v.d.'s with these games to basically applaud the model there's a way in which you know entertainment mirrors reality and reality mirrors entertainment and there are people who are influenced by all this even though the manufacturers always deny that it has any influence on anyone your range of public
6:10 pm
figures came out condemning be attacked but so far no one is coming out questioning justification for a virtual version lauren mr r.t. new york. and you can get all the continuing details on the blast and the tragedy adama dead of on our website r.t. dot com with all the latest video eye witness reports expert opinion and much much more. i. turn out other news we're covering here on our t.v. russia's lower house of parliament has ratified the new russia u.s. strategic arms reduction treaty the debate over the deal ended tuesday with russia having added its own interpretations our correspondent is going off in moscow and guy h.q. on in washington have been following developments. they're called special statements
6:11 pm
because they will not affect the actual implementation of the treaty itself the first one is ensuring moscow's right. off the deal if it feels threatened by u.s. defense plans in europe and the second one. similar statements previously by the us congress do not free you are shipped in from its obligation no this is the third such treaty between russia and the united states the first two were signs from back in one thousand nine hundred. ninety three but this latest one is meant to reduce the number of officers you call this one each side going around one third so it's a giant step in terms of global security now that it's been ratified by the state duma according to the procedure it would have to be asked to by the federation council and then signed by the president of the students should be the leaders of both countries that supported this deal it's highly unlikely that there
6:12 pm
will be any problems with its implementation here in russia we know that president obama has told president medvedev over the phone that it was very pleased to hear the news from russia he said that he saw the ratification of the treaty as a major stab bringing the two countries closer together at a time when there are so many challenges in the world that we quire international cooperation of course talked about the blast at the moscow airport about being together in this fight against terror with or with regards to the start treaty is seen as a very important part of that being together basically as the milestone of the u.s. washer we said he was an administration has been working very hard to get it passed through the senate it wasn't easy certain forces in congress had been stalling the process it was mostly about politics not about the substance of the treaty we have some very significant reductions underway over the next seven ten years both countries will cut their nuclear arsenals by a third. down to some fifteen hundred and fifty warheads on each side the deal also
6:13 pm
limits the number of delivery vehicles and launchers but even with those cuts both countries will still have more than ninety percent of the walls nuclear weapons so anyway that the value of this arms reduction treaty is not just being reductions it's in the trust and cooperation between the two nuclear superpower is that that comes with it obama has been very vocal about the fact that building trust with washer brings the u.s. only benefits and the new start treaty is definitely a very important part of that trust. paul ingram from the british american security information council says despite some disagreements over the text of the treaty it's an important confidence building move for russia and the us in the end it's the same treaty the same text and these interpretations i think both sounds as if they are contradictory but they are both accurate in the sense that there is clearly a link in the preamble of the treaty between defensive and offensive forces and so
6:14 pm
the russian duma is quite correct point the u.s. senate has said that there is nothing illegal preventing the americans from developing missile defense but if the right the russians certainly have a right to withdraw from the treaty should they should they deem their security to be threatened and and these are points of fact of the treaty so it's it's not that they are ratifying two separate treaties the same treaty is there and in the end i think it's quite right to say that this is the first step in a very long process of confidence building and he said. after a day of discussions members of the council of europe have adopted the organ trafficking report presented by the swiss human rights investigator dick marty council members have called for an inquiry into allegations that the kosovo liberation army was kidnapping serbs and selling their organs on the black market
6:15 pm
or to carry knives are about has the story without a trace that's how the silence brother disappeared along with thousands of other people. he went to work as usual with his friends to the births of it's mine and that was it i never saw him again there's so many serbs are still missing now after twelve years i've lost. after the car civil war over two thousand people went missing and over a decade later are still unaccounted for. but a grim report brought to the council of europe by swiss investigator dick marty has shed some light on the gruesome fate of all those missing according to the report senior officials in the cost of the liberation army including current prime minister hussian touchy or involved in kidnapping serbs and selling their organs on the black market that was at least one custom built element to the post conflict network of detention facilities which was unique in appearance and purpose it
6:16 pm
constituted a state of the art reception sense for the organized crime of trafficking it was styled as a makeshift operating clinic and it was the site at which some of the captives how by the k.l.a. members and affiliates had moved against their will finding living victims of these crimes may be near impossible but dick marty's group found the next best thing the money trail in. the course of a liberation army have these accounts in swiss and german banks and they are suspected of using them for the profits from illegal trafficking this isn't some alleged humanitarian organization open these accounts so that the true purpose of the money would remain a secret. but it is a secret no more and understandably to swiss government is very concerned as are the swiss bankers the swiss banking community is known and favored for its discretion and unwillingness to disclose its client information to any
6:17 pm
investigative party however this time around they may not have a choice but on the plots of the financial epicenter of zero most of the countries four hundred seventy financial institutions have offices or headquarters here but that isn't the only thing they have in common fiercely guarding their reputation is what swiss banks are famous for and despite the fact the investigation is still ongoing it is almost certain that within these walls damage control is already being planned out. casualties are r.t. switzerland. marco from the british serbian alliance for peace thinks despite the criticism the e.u. is unlikely to change its stance towards kosovo. the european union has really got has got a poor record in terms of establishing the truth of what of the yugoslav situation from ninety ninety one when it's a commission said that casa wasn't entitle to independence recognizing it or the majority of its members recognizing the independence of fake state. just a few
6:18 pm
a few years later so the european union has got a bad record in terms of allowing all kinds of anti serbian activities and demonization to go on and that is indeed the problem for the european union because after all the demonization all the states and his asian are one sided in the civil war in that war aided and abetted from outside how do those who are leading lights of the e.u. go back home there is their previous mistakes how can they say will they ever be prepared to say we were wrong we created a fake state based on if it goes through everybody not albanian in it we gave it to national. stream is to create a gangster paradise a drug runners paradise or a place where sex slavery and organ harvesting was normal and how do they then after so sorry i find it a difficult situation for the e.u. actually so really that that's the reality and that is what they've been closing their eyes to that's what nato created and that the buck stops there. new tonight here on r t one person has been killed fourteen injured in a roof collapse at
6:19 pm
a shopping mall in st petersburg rescuers you sniffer dogs to locate people trapped in the debris reports say a build up of snow on the roof may have caused the collapse emergency services say all victims have now been recovered from the sea. take a look now at some other stories making headlines across the globe in egypt at least three people have died after thousands of pro-democracy demonstrators took to the streets demanding the resignation of the country's president police to use tear gas and water cannons to disperse protesters but remain wary of an escalation similar to that in a nearby tunisia the rallies were planned against a backdrop of growing anger over food shortages and unemployment nearly half of egyptians live below the international poverty line earning less than two u.s. dollars a day. hezbollah backed candidate has been appointed lebanon's new prime minister giving the militant party powerful political leverage the news was met with fierce opposition in the mainly sunni north where demonstrators burned tires and attacked
6:20 pm
vehicles belonging to the media protesters accuse has below viewed by many as an iranian proxy of staging a coup the u.s. has voiced its displeasure over the events and threaten to withdraw support for the country. we're back with our top stories in less than ten minutes first though r.t. talks to iran's envoy to the international atomic energy agency stay with us.
6:21 pm
you characterize sanctions imposed on your country as illegal is there any proof of that and the how the. mad heart of that is. based on the four pieces of evidence announced in vienna i mean team that the reason they posed the national sanctions on us is illegal i ask international lawyers to contact me if i'm wrong because in proof number one they impose sanctions not comply with cost on the seat of the charter and international inspectors have visited the reactors and on of them said there were an inconsistency more inspections were performed with three european state life i am still u.k. and germany with their system so the usa put pressure on the i.a.e.a. and report was given to the security council that's out of accord with the decision of the i.a.e.a. has charged at a secondly a report as presented to the i.a.e.a. management union please there is evidence of changing of the nuclear program for military purposes but in reports presented by the agency over the past eight years
6:22 pm
there was always a free i stated that no proof of their own nuclear program for surround military aims has been detected thirdly if a state does not let inspectors on to its territory and their reactor sterrett tory or interferes with their work the issue as you would for the security council like a was with north korea where it's a different situation in iran in iran and specters did their job and agency director confirmed this but did not truthful and last three and the decision of sanctions prepared by three countries before it was sent to the year one there was a very important phrase discontinuation of uranium enrichment also voluntarily or not obligatory by law and so how can they say that we're going against the law will we stop to remember which one there is fuck on reactor. but they want us to stop the nuclear research. there were many reports about
6:23 pm
a virus found in the realities and bullshit and that time anyhow could get into the computer system of iran's reactor ones how did you fix it to live and who did you blame saw me dani hostage passive us that you know that they have been speaking a binary virus on our computer system for several years some invented viruses either find ways to resist on our computer system continues to work in real human richmond continues without any problems this wire is did not affect anything even the centrifuge american islam which usually makes one thousand revolutions per second in the bush era power plants are france specialist from russia together with their rain young scientists control the process and have the system it's possible to do americans and there's a rare weezer trying to stop or nuclear program they fail to do so by the means of sanctions and other china to do it with the help of viruses or by a minute of terror actions and the times when the lives of the scientists the entire world come down that because everyone respects scientists for the world's wealth this only strengthens the determination of
6:24 pm
a rainout people our people carefully check on their rights fulfillments and we continue to cooperate with the i.a.e.a. . in our work what about the tehran react you need you kill to continue working with this power what are the details of this reactors operation which you are allowed to share and adopt model that the muscles that act on it to. use for the chron power plant which was built by the americans before the revolution back then i mean before the revolution i work for the i am not here agreement the new fuel production was signed back then but unfortunately the us did not allow the correspondent company to pass just fuel to last although we already paid over two hundred million dollars for the did not give us the fuel or return the money twenty years ago i was a ron's representative but i. and i as the director general of there were going to station to ask other countries to help us get the fuel but none of them agreed at
6:25 pm
that time argentina and now if that had succeeded in the iranian enrichment on its own we signed an agreement i never sensed that a crown a reactor and i'm working on argentina on fuel received with the i see as a system in two thousand and nine we submit an application and ask for fuel in the negotiations with russia france and the us we agreed and we see on the fuel but they put forward the conditions that apart from my need we were to give them a low enriched uranium in their equivalent of the sun and so we worked under the supervision of the id and with the fears that russia would give just not to france in order to transfer not entirely clear fuel bars but they did not agree to that before the sign on the letter to consciously we had to enrich uranium up to twenty percent on our own fortunately now we have forty kilos of highly enriched uranium and looking for nuclear fuel bars but i sat on my words were misinterpreted and some reports i don't keep we produce nuclear fuel on our own talks will be useless
6:26 pm
time flies by fast so before it's too late let's gather the negotiations stand with provide us with the fuel for there to find a reactor which is designed for medical humanitarian purposes it is designed to treat one million cancer patients this fact has to be a stimulus for russia america and france to show their political will for talks on the basis of that to crohn's agreement but that the contrary to it is still on the table. if i thought i would know what future of the iranian nuclear program do you see what's around to do and the end all they got in touch value chain is that i thought if you know that we hope that the countries which committed a historic mistake then involve the un and that will admit to this fact we demand that they should stop talks on north soon as possible so that we'll be able to gain the network operations of the high eighty eight. we hope that our friends the food in russia will assist freezing detoxed and if you want us to take the prisoners
6:27 pm
they will listen sure there's a moon from confrontation and sanctions constructive for precision of compliance with the i.a.e.a. to love us. was the strangest attempt of a military takeover of. the us president trying to overthrow a foreign country's government but his strategic game was lost. and america recognized its defeat. question is if cuba managed to cope with its victory in all don't. forget autumn. i leave you think you are you go but the rajab either live via the cuban missile crisis games and reality t.v.
