ski resort in the urals as the area breaks free of its reputation as an industrial region. it's three pm here in moscow this is coming to you via thanks for being with us our top story this hour libya's embattled government has flatly rejected rebel calls for a cease fire describing their terms as map opposition leaders are demanding the regime would draw its troops western cities and ground freedoms to citizens while insisting colonel gadhafi steps down or if you supposedly are has more from tripoli . spokesperson here in tripoli said it would be mad to expect libyan soldiers to withdraw from cities where there was still fighting and this is almost i wanted because it wasn't so long ago that tripoli itself to cease fire offers and at that

time the rebels said that these offers were insincere and could not be trusted so certainly a lot of mistrust between both sides neither willing to be the first to lay down arms but on the diplomatic trying to slightly different picture is emerging we are hearing from the country from a prime minister mr. brady that the lines of communication have been opened and that they're hoping to intensify them they say that they are talking with the british the french and the americans to reach some kind of neutral settlement that would see the stopping of killings of civilians now we are hearing the same line coming out of london it has confirmed that in recent weeks it has been meeting in private with several high ranking libyan officials we know that just on reins day mohammed ismail who is a trusted aide of gadhafi sons was in london he was trying to organize what we understand some kind of an exit strategy for gadhafi family that landed insisting that any kind of deal any kind of settlement plan would have to include gadhafi

himself stepping down we're hearing from doctors on the front line and some of the most recent data is strikes at least seven civilians were killed they were all children three of them were girls from the same family you know what we've been told in what was incidence nature is strike hit an ammunitions enlai and the explosions caused two nearby houses to collapse and some of those injuries coming from that overnight friday we're also hearing disturbing reports coming from the waist and city of misrata where residents say that the government and soldiers there have intensified their shelling that it is very grounded and a lot of people are dying here in tripoli the a strikes have continued overnight there were missiles that were fired in the east and south bristol the city some other. landing in get out the compound as asea according to eyewitnesses there were snipers on the building and there was blood on the ground the fighting in the frontline into the around the town of gregor we are hearing that the rebels are

slightly better organized that they are now starting to be inexperienced young fighters who showed themselves to flee in the face of chaos from actually reaching the front line we are also being told that they have new communication instruments with them in the form of satellite phones in the form of radios these have no doubt be provided by the international community we're also being told that the rebels have water and some new requirements so that they are stepping up the fight on the ground we're hearing from the european union that if asked is really to send a humanitarian mission it what you see and should be holding not a military operation that will provide humanitarian assistance in the sense of hoping to evacuate displaced people and also provide assistance to the humanitarian organizations working here. journalist and author susan lindauer says the rebels are too weak or disorganized to dictate their conditions to have these forces. he will never step down he's

a fighter to the end and it is seems extraordinary that the opposition forces while they are losing the war would try to dictate the terms of surrender to the party to its winning which is the united nations has jumped into this conflict before they before they understood who they were teaming up with they did not understand anything about this opposition force the opposition force is not highly emotive they may be passionate in their politics but they are not highly organized on the battlefield essentially you're going to have to have a ground war to remove gadhafi. meanwhile some say the policy of double standards may play into the hands of war criminals leaders around the world continue to rally against moammar gadhafi events of the past so that sometimes leaders can escape punishment for the crimes they committed. also an israeli businessman old millions

make a second video and has already been approached about turning his cartoon into a game colorful metaphors and imagery illustrating the story of revolutions as the world waits to see how the real and game plays out. r.t. new york. now the shared condemnation of by the international community has given rise to accusations of hypocrisy recent conflicts are just that some leaders can't escape punishment for their crimes as long as they have the backing of the u.s. . this is the warm welcome and firm handshakes for someone who just three years ago gave the order that led to the deaths of civilians in the republic of south the city of dealing with one of the great leaders of the world the georgian president with his fluent english as a welcome guest on american t.v. shows where he's never answered the question why in the middle of the night on

august the seventh two thousand and eight the gore to begin the me george tiller reborn bartman of the sleeping city of king vi and of the peaceful town. the region which georgia wanted to bring on its control was razed to the ground. hundreds were killed in the attack joe maestas nearly lost his daughter in sacrifice really as amin's she was visiting relatives in one of the towns in the south the city of i believe saakashvili should be removed from office i think he should be tried in international court for rule crimes but when he comes to me even though the e.u. finding mission because i mean that he started a war in two thousand and eight and ordered the bloodbath in south of safety as a georgian president is still supported in the west they have no strategic interest in. supporting his overthrow the notion that decisions get made on the basis of

humanitarian concerns it's simply false it doesn't it's not the basis for the decision about libya it's not the basis for decisions about georgia about palestine about kosovo the question of who is held responsible and how is very much a strategic question it's not a legal question as it should be to boost its strategic importance among other things georgia has dispatched one thousand troops to join allied forces in afghanistan and became the leading troop contributor relative to georgia's overall population soundless and as this monster. the interview shows almost on stoppable praise of the u.s. is also believed to have played a role in the west's according saakashvili no matter what his crimes and there's a slight because it's based on better than the marriage production and more more even roughly more freedom after the release of mr president for a graduate of the restaurant so you now as the world has declared a no fly zone over libya to stop gadhafi many wonder why

a no fly zone was never on the table when the georgian president launched a steady campaign or when israel bombed the gaza for three weeks in a row on the question for example of gaza where you had a blatant act of aggression clearly a violent massive violation of not only international human rights norms but war crimes crimes against humanity being created fourteen hundred people killed of whom more than nine hundred were civilians more than three hundred were children it was a different situation that went on for decades the problem there is that israel is the protector protectorate of the united states and the u.s. is not going to allow anyone the united nations or anyone else to actually engage in a serious way in stopping that massacre you would think if a leader commits atrocities he would be printed like they could benefit the now

banned from travel but his personal that's not the way politics works the daughter in president killed scores of civilians but was exonerated by the west politicians accept him as a friend as its leaders are looking to invest in his country and it seems the grass is happy to continue turning a blind eye to the blood of subspecies heads i'm going to check out reporting from washington r.t. . still to come for you in the program why the u.s. dollar could be out of the picture with the creation of a new global monetary system. i think a lot of people are jealous of what we have are a free country you can go from nothing. the million dollars per you can begin to lose it all but you have opportunity and other opinions gathered by the resident show how on the streets of new york is coming to you later this hour. and putting the pieces in place we report from the assembly find of the finest spacecraft and launches the casualty mark the fiftieth anniversary of your current first space

flight. but first workers at the stricken fukushima facility are set to seal a breach in one of the reactors using concrete japan's nuclear officials say highly radioactive water has been seeping through the crack in the pacific ocean the un's top nuclear official has warned that the operation to solve the crisis of the cycle before long past prime minister has visited the dam it's fertility to boost morale among both working there authorities say they don't plan to expand to try to kilometer evacuation from all the radiation was registered forty kilometers from the facility american writer and commentator on japan alex curse says the government is not doing enough to resolve the crisis. of the biggest problems they are dealing with here is this whole thing is they left in the hands of the electrical company and in most of the large countries of the world i think if you had a problem of this seriousness you have not the central government coming in with all

the big resources at their disposal the army the navy the resources of this film company are not up to it they don't have cars and vans and so on to get to the site well them that they're in a big wealthy country like japan and there are other ways to do it and yet the government just seems to look just unwilling to make a move beyond what some purif rats in the electrical company are telling them looks good so that many for a start only the patients one of the cheeriest questions is why are they staying at a facility that is subject to radioactivity. just five hundred meters from the site there have got to have been ways to bring in tents to build temporary shelter say one kilometer or even two which will lower the amount of radioactivity that they're exposed to the issue is not so much what the electrical company did or didn't do but why the central government seems unwilling to step in and not. in other news

a scandalous and politically charged trial and georgia has ended with an israeli investor being friends to seven years in jail running food through was tarzan bribery maintains that he was set up by the georgian government which owes the investor one hundred million dollars r.t. if you could really get over explain. a roni folks is not only a major investor in georgia he's also an on record so in turkey a position combining both economic development and all of the rocker diplomacy he worked as an oil trader in new york for something fifteen years and yes he invested huge amounts of cash in georgia back in the one nine hundred ninety s. now quite surprisingly for humanity to go last year he received an invitation to visit george here from the prime minister of the country himself now why surprisingly because for some peeved teen years rooney flukes has been demanding one hundred million dollars from georgia the money which georgia owes him for

a bridge to grammont on construction of an oil pipeline back in the ninety's now a court in london earlier that year ruled that george indeed should pay the money back for georgian authorities but obviously they don't want to pay that money to rony folks here believe that invitation is just a formality to put an end to this fifteen year old dispute now shortly before that visited in quite a rude sea hotel room and turkey there was an unofficial meeting between rooney folks and georgian authorities and there they reached a verbal agreement after drinking lots of cognac big roni folks would receive only seventy two million dollars instead of ninety eight with georgia owed him but on one critical condition in return he gives seven million dollars back now the agreement was reached only one for a mallet he was allowed to come over to georgia shake hands with the prime minister and finalize the deal now minutes after that happened in front of georgian t.v.

cameras rony folks and his business associates were arrested well the question is how did a combat a businessman who georgios that huge amount of cash and up in a d.c. prison now the lure of it was a trap very. wisely set out by. himself there was in fact a. cooperation a collaboration between four important ministries of the government and probably with the approval of the president of the ministry of finance the ministry of justice or the ministry of the interior and the prime minister's office all of which came together. with the plan to entrap ronnie fumes fuchs was that informed through diplomatic channels that he would not be released until the arbitration award was waived now shortly after a roni food sent his business partner what they were all for it runs and what could

be called the ransom was put on the table now do just that but he could be released if he admits of guilt and if he gave the money back but rooney folks refused to do either now we know that georgiana wants the world to believe that it's on a war against corruption and. personally wants to attract foreign investment into the country so of course he has saved this one hundred million dollars obviously but the question is how much will he lose because now foreign investors will help the think twice before bringing money into this country. the controversial case may well of terror other political investors potential investors rather than doing business in the country that's according to our kaku carve up leader of the conservative party of georgia. right no it's. not only for israel businessmen but it's a way for european business and for american businessmen if you are looking corrupted

links with georgian government seeking to do business in georgia the same signal was there i think it was four years ago graner the office still sore knee in the market of stories the center of what we see was a great way to suppose it will be very tragic for georgian economy with keeping the right know mr fox in frankly spatially i'll steer this case was the moving towards by. israeli government and different international institutions. that was crackle call the leader of the conservative party of georgia we can get more news and fincher is on our website r t v dot com there's a quick walk up what's there for you right now as the snow finally melts and moscow some of the capitals and invaders declare the selig's season open on the city harwood's. and there are as you've never seen it before check out the spectacular high resolution images captured trialed russian satellite and much more for you at our team.

a crew escape system and this is very important because should anything go wrong during the launch this will provide them with an escape plan as we were standing here watching the assembly we were able to see very closely be exterior of that module carrying the cabin we saw of course the image of utica god and that number fifty obviously signifying your fiftieth anniversary of really got its first spaceflight on april twelfth nineteen a sixty one it was very interesting is the account that of the crew captain some of which he was known as a little guarded when he was young so it's if you will a good coincidence on his part of the other crew members are cosmonauts and very very cycle and american astronaut ron garan they're going to be testing themselves are basically going to be lab rats they're going to be testing how the human body can survive for longer in space this is of course to further space exploration to see how long you mean beings could stay in space and to prolong this capability of human beings another important experiment they will be doing is observing the earth

from an ecological points of you know given the natural disasters we've been witnessing a recently. well instability in the middle east and the japanese disaster have sparked fears of a new global economic crisis residential host laurie harmfulness asked people now on the streets of new york what needs to be done to avoid from a corpse. billionaire investor george soros is holding a conference to be attended by the world's richest and hence most influential people it turns out to reform the global monetary system how do you fix the world's economy this week let's talk about that well number one they're not trying to figure out how to fix the economy they're trying to repair to a what's already going on which is the governments of long since lost control of monetary wealth and it's because. corporate so.

what i do i actually draw a line between the two corporations and government which right now their line is very blurry my own most important economic trade which is triple bottom line which means you look at what's best for not only the businesses not only for the employees involved in businesses but society as well so if that becomes your economic standard then you're approving not only the companies and the global economy but the. area that companies working in as well as a lot of people are feeling like it's time for the dollar to step down because there's always been animosity against the u.s. . well best. so is it jealousy. yeah i do i think a lot of people jealous what we have were a free country you can come from nothing and make a million dollars or you can make a million dollars and lose it all but you have opportunity i just got back from italy and i got crushed by the euro you know thirty percent of the dollar's losing

weight no matter what we think yeah well look i remember back when i used to go through the sixty yen to the dollar now it's a hundred eighty. nine for a global monetary system do you think now you can i are a socialist i can go down that road no matter what you or i think should be done to improve the global economy the bottom line is those decisions will always be made by those with the most money for better or worse. now we continue our close of series the team has off to the foothills of siberia to reveal a relax and get away from urban life. we aren't convinced this saturday that's in the southern euros

a region closed off to foreigners until as recently as the one nine hundred ninety s. by today its natural beauty and wonder on the right for everyone just a few sort nears the region has achieved a reputation as a haven for gold wanting to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city parties or in a ghost is there. when the soviet union broke up businessmen in shenanigans so an opportunity to turn this once closed off region it's a major tourist destination after all a good look around shows the southern euros have much to offer at the moment over australia score with the challenge was always perceived as the most allergic allegiance of course it remains so to this day but many people see that there's more to life than i am and questions such as this will start to attract thousands of people. i love is a businessman who on a whim invested most of his capital into building resorts near the top national park the russians generally prefer to hit the slopes in europe i legs wrote in says
