wealthy british style. markets weiner scandal. find out what's really happening to the global economy because a report on r.g.p. . is in great brush on. the moral stuff that's a. blatant crash that killed the polish president. there's. a year ago. that we were involved in the civil war largely because of the vast amounts of oil that exist in eastern libya and i think the result will probably break a very easy partition of if you know. actions in libya tends to anger the law and secure and this is to apologize for so-called friendly fire.

killed opposition fighters. u.s. lawmakers scraped together an agreement on their lives and spending cuts just an hour before the first government shutdown this could have gone ahead. area without news twenty four hours a day welcome to the program russia and poland coming together to remember a common tragedy on sunday will be exactly a year since a polish plane crash near the russian city of smolensk ninety six people wrong boarding the polish president the wife and a large part of the country's political and the grief united nations poland's rejection of the investigation has threatened to divide the r.t.c. country which is in a spot where commemoration ceremonies are due to be key. started sulphur describe

the scene there. earlier on there is only a tree stumps left of the side where the polish tupelo one fifty four a plane crashed causing a fire the plane was carrying the polish president his wife and ninety four other all the country's political and military elite very soon relatives told those killed in the catastrophe will be gathering here at the site near the seventy are a troll near smolensk and to the white will be current polish president on the tomorrow ski police delegation from poland afterglow lane ceremony and a religious service they will also visit the katine moro which is some twenty kilometers from here but it is very important to remember what was the main eighteen feet behind that face old. flight to the east region of russia it must remember something which carriage huge emotional scars will the polish people dig

up the massacre where twenty two thousand polish officers were slaughtered by style his secret police at the beginning of world war two and today it is a side of a double tragedy ironically this was the catastrophe which helped russia and poland relieved old time shifts and the russians of the poles i have appreciated it and have walcott received it very well how russians have been helping with the investigation and that the prime minister of russia has promised to close and it will receive the investigation but now a year on the differences which opens up between moscow and warsaw over the investigations findings aren't likely to have a quick fix. april seventh twenty town in the spring sunshine leadin are putin and donald to school on are victims of the cutting massacre many find it hard to believe as a two hundred years of mutual. between russia and poland had been washed away with

tears. but fresh tears were to fall on the soil get three days later the whole polish nation was sent in to move their president government religious leaders sent other members of the country's elite gun. being has become a symbol of two polish tragedies and while the first we can judge only from history books the second unfolded in front of us almost growth cost in real time the plane catastrophe showed our generation of russians and poles those who didn't witness the second world war how do you still suffer and national tragedy. there was however a twist of irony it was these new catastrophe that healed many of the wounds of the past the facts though were hard to take for some there is no question about this

the commander the captain of the polish craft is to blame for this tragedy the investigation was beginning to take on political overtones with attempts in poland to push the blame onto russia part of this report is a joke for cruel and exploiting the submissive and shoot of the government of going to ski. michael a micro accusation and i would personally ask that question to the air traffic control so why there were not so hard to press the group the transcripts of the pilot's last words show there were multiple warnings from the russian air traffic controllers not to land in the fog and to hard to reserve air filled they could for beast the plane from landing because that would have been against international aviation law poland's once further investigation of diplomacy and politics should not hamper the investigation of facts for us facts of the most important of history

suggests russia and poland may take their time to settle their differences especially against the background of a tragedy but such a high price was paid for the recent reconciliation that even skeptics realized it would be as shame for it to be tainted once again by division and scapegoating exit in the direction of r t but the in the smolensk region. well for more on this story i'm now joined by service truck and political commentator connor santorum newspaper thank you for joining us here in the studio and a year after the tragedy is it clear what the consequences will be of all this reconciliation or more disagreements when it's not very sane that definitely a year after year after the tray should be both sides made a big step towards reconciliation but at the same time it's great clear that this is a mormon culture has roots in its. history really really

a lot of our relations with paul and there are very few countries in the world where history is sold in ten minutes that's why definitely a man who will have to make much more effort we put aside that seemed to be against the use of the russian investigation of his from the start why would that be i would say that. point each side's reaction is quite confusing because as i understand it the initial stage they were quite satisfied. with the cooperation with the russian side and as you know it was done in full compliance with international norms and the international community and we submitted all the documents it looked as if they were satisfied and not just. all of a sudden we are getting quite another statements which sound and to russian so it definitely shows that history's very strong syria has said that it history's not just in the present but in the present so towards us and talk about the other verse

three then how important will these commemorations seven has been trying to bring the two sides together well this is just another attempt to just get to go there. quietly. try to develop a sort of unbiased objective approved of it. took to understand that there's no question of hiding the truth. there's no no no we just do a blog. and spirits experience you see which is still but you needn't. call it probably a position of course it's you know you talk about the polish politics there is some of this confusion coming from poland and what to do with domestic issues you know definitely this is the masterpiece of this is not the question between russia and poland but this is the question between the. british politicians. well as you know. almost no action so.

that the conservatives you see will go. find themselves. in a crisis their neck unable just for the role of your ideas the absolute so not now they just they're looking on the protest as a sort of frontier just another source for a new national idea that you can't build up build up political carry on that you see but it's not fair. can't leave it there thank you or so you're struck on from the concern you spread as a commentator that thank you for joining us thanks for having me thank you. but they are the next two days our crews will bring you special coverage of the commemoration ceremonies we're looking at how the tragedy affected relations between the two nations and how the facts of the crash came to light. when the news is not enough. when it's something really crucial. when you want to get down

to brass tacks we bring you our special coverage here. in a place already synonymous with tragedy the world witnessed another disaster that left a country devastated. and united two nations in grief. question more on the party. to libya and anger is growing among supporters after nato second so-called friendly fire bombing raids resulted in rebel there it's still been no outright apology from the alliance correspondent with the latest from the capital tripoli. waiters leadership over its military operations here in libya are coming under more and more fire for being ineffective and for creating mistakes it is now nine days since nato took over command of military operations here and in the last week alone we've witnessed two separate nato is tribes that have left in total more than twenty opposition fighters did and

several dozen injured now as you can well imagine the tensions here are running high particularly because you know it was secretary general why regretting the loss of life has not come out and said that he is sorry for these airstrikes essentially what nature is arguing is that i was not aware that the rebel fighters were using tanks prior to these airstrikes american stock the fighters. i'm in now we're hearing a very different argument coming from the rebel commanders they say that they did notify measure beforehand that they had some twenty tanks in their position and that they were moving to the frontline around the city of a drive year a little bit towards a greater with those tanks and also seems rather questionable why nature was not aware that the rebel fighters had tanks because there has been footage circulating now for weeks showing these opposition fighters with heavy weaponry that includes tanks the other argument that nature is putting forward is that the situation on the ground is extremely fluid it says that the front line keeps seesawing forwards

and backwards that there's a constant flow of heavy machinery of tanks and it's becoming so difficult for them to actually tell who's who on the ground now for days now we have been witnessing a demoralization among the opposition forces that is now turning into anger they say that nato is not doing enough it's making a lot of mistakes and it's also made glick to its operations here they say that they do not understand why nato has not been able to convince his forces from advancing some one hundred miles into rebel territory why and why and that is true because right at the moment is forces are holding the apa hand in terms of fighting on the ground. veteran left wing british m.p. . says and those who is pursuing questionable goals in the conflict. between the old reducing the country. what we are coming bolton is a civil war in libya and they all went disastrously wrong when they bombed an

opposition military point i think it's very damaging but it underlines the lack of any clear purpose in this mission and the lack of any endgame in it we're involved in the civil war largely because of the vast amounts of oil that exist in eastern libya and i think the result would probably prefer a very easy partition of living with a sterile break which will lead to constant conflict in cults not versed in the future there has to be some political solution to this otherwise the carnage will continue the losses will continue and western interests will increasingly look with greedy eyes on these enormous oil reserves and indeed the market opportunities of libya are going to see the libyan people bring about their solution without western interference. as a journalist and antiwar activist says the us was planning your ration in the months before the on the rest of the country began. last summer we began to hear that qaddafi was pressuring the u.s. and british oil companies for compensation and reimbursement for the damages from

sanctions in the one nine hundred ninety s. khadafi had been put under sanctions for the lockerbie bombing. the bombing of pan am one of three and the united nations had demanded that libya turn over two men for trial at the hague what happened at the trial was the united states paid witnesses four million dollars apiece to testify against the libyans and. that has it and those witnesses have now recanted their testimony it's the lockerbie trial made it clear that libya had nothing to do with that case and it has been a great embarrassment for the west and now khadafy has last summer we began to hear because he was trying to. gain some compensation some kickbacks possibly some fees from the oil companies and in october you occidental

petroleum and chevron two us two major u.s. oil companies pulled out of libya and i think from october on there was going to be something that would happen to libya to punish them for making things hard for us oil. what is what is exclusive analysis over a minute shopper ration in that you are offering me some videos to. see footage of crew ascent from the rebel stronghold of benghazi thousands gathered on friday to mourn their terms of nato has gone you can even download these images from a free video service the name implies there's no charge they found a link to the page which gives you are going to access to thousands of tips that's on our websites.

now it will be the longest and most ambitious undersea pipeline in the world but it's complete stream of the gas from russia to countries across europe he's never went to see first hand how the construction is progressing. might look like common in middle of a muddy building site but behind me is a key point in one of the most ambitious engineering projects undertaken anywhere in the world over the last few years the plight which you can see just going into the ground and then out to see behind me as the north stream pipe as the world's longest underwater gas pipe as the world's thickets pipe and it's also one operating under the most pressure it's a flagship project for russia it was mooted for over ten years before construction could actually begin here and it's going to cost over seven billion euros at least . she's now proving that it is capable of initialising to carry on such large scale

projects taking part in all the phases starting from modeling constructing and operating here. this is no ordinary methyl it's got to be able to withstand extreme conditions the thickness of the walls it's centimeters it's able to not break down if there is a cold temperature of more than minus fifty also it looks kind of solid but it's actually extremely flexible it's able to swing in a range of more than a thousand meters in fact at the moment there's a big lay down on a ship about a thousand kilometers away near the coast of germany the world's most powerful compressor station which is just one kilometer back there will be forcing the gas to go at huge pressure so you don't need any kind of other compression stations in the middle of the pipe on its way to realize ation the north stream project faced a lot of objections now one type objection was from environmentalist those in

sweden and finland two of the country three you see by their wish the project will go through well worried about the impact of projects on the seabed and also what might have happened if there were any kind of so i think emergencies well in this respect gazprom under contract has not only gone and done everything to make sure that iran. nothing happened so the point would have gone beyond a good third of the seabed of the baltic has been damaged already by previous wars and lucian are actually going out of their way to restore. the condition of that objection was political already supplied nearly a third of europe's girls were closer to the abyss new part of what was going to bring a new level of security because of conflicts which are good transit countries with ukraine and you have the basically the whole of europe hostage to the demands of want transit country and recent events in our world are playing into the hands of

this project with the instability it's all the europe needs north stream more than over. the us congress has thrashed out a budget green on spending cuts dangerously close to the deadline republicans and democrats were forced to overcome their differences on risk the first government shutdown in fifteen years if the shutdown had happened hundreds of thousands of public employees including soldiers and many teachers with paid sensors agreed on thirty million dollars worth of cuts before the end of september however despite efforts to tighten the budgets somewhat or eating economists are using ground ways to ensure greater economic stability for the world we're in this to report from a summit hosted. was. one of the main reasons why this gathering is taking place is because the belief is that after the financial collapse that the globe and it reverberated all across the world there hasn't been anything to

replace the old system and it reflects a new world where the united states is not the one senior power. seated on a policy the way that it was in the one nine hundred forty four conference when the dollar was named the reserve currency that was the historic conference that was when you united nations got together the allied countries during world war two at its peak to have this summit today it's a very different story this. billionaire george soros gathered together two hundred according to the think tank intellectuals this is a think tank funded by soros and fifty million dollars reportedly behind it gathered together to discuss where this is going next this idea among thinkers here or at least behind its conference is that there needs to be a system that reflects that this is no longer you know pull the world it is a multi-polar world that brings developing nations into the conversation the bric nations brazil russia india china nations that now are fueling growth and have booming economies around the world opposition to the developed nations such as the united states that were growth is really stagnated and where debts have been run up

yet this is still the reserve currency this is still a large force as far as monetary policy so the idea among thinkers here is that there really needs to be a different system that gauges and reflects the developing nations and the nations that are fueling a lot of the growth in the world that aren't as reflected in old policies that are considered by some of these thinkers according to them outdated. well now to other news making headlines around the world this hour at least twenty three people have been killed and latest crashes in the syrian city of the iran which has now seen three weeks of anti-government rallies witnesses say security forces were shooting at protesters all state for syrian team he claims nineteen police officers were killed reports of more deaths in other cities have in some emerged a wave of protests is an unprecedented challenge to the near presidency of russia. an israeli airstrike has left eleven palestinians dead in its cross border exchange

in gaza it came just hours after unilateral cease fire was declared by palestinian terrorists in the last two days as well as the front of raids of gaza the response from this all a target because it's. protests there were plans for a new market preview turned violent three people lost their lives off the clashes with police dozens of others were injured demonstrators enormous streets for three days running over concerns the construction surprise and damaged. in response the country's government says it's canceled the controversial project. but in the months ahead the u.s. has both bawling its space shuttles what in the same year that celebrations will be held the greatest signature event in space exploration well geez it really reporter is also a new york what happened to america's extraterrestrial ambitions. this

month marks the fifty year anniversary of the first human caused and not yuri gagarin to ever fly into space so whatever happened to this space race this week let's talk about that are you proud that man once walked on the moon. i'm i proud that man was walked out of my proud that man once across the atlantic ocean and failed america i think it's it's a good thing for people who for mankind to do new things and explore and learn no one cares and i'm going into space when a boy is that sad no i think we've done it seen it's too expensive there's nothing more to do in outer space well it's also more to do but is it worth doing if you don't think it is i don't know why do it why did it why did the culture used to think it was so important and now are like been there done being here barry is before but we know we've got up areas now we've got our boundaries it's just too

expensive you don't think people living on another planet would be breaking a boundary and well it would i suppose there's far too many problems on the earth now to be even thinking of us actual space but weren't there just as many problems back than. perhaps there were. just so used to it. television. cinema. just shows social space all the time so it doesn't seem to be so spectacular and more i think it was it was a new a new or new presidency a new administration you know everything was new so but that kind of what else bomber ran on right fellowship what must be a great time for him to stay let's really explore it would be something better than nothing he'd see that happening no no no barak obama should do what john kennedy did start a whole new space will room really gets out there really for more the more. you

know do you think that people would be internet as much as they were back in the day or are they too into the internet and facebook. so much change that we used to focus on it and now we don't seem to care. we understand a lot more about the universe through. telescopes and other resources but we haven't been to mars but we know it's there a lot of ways we haven't you know time travel you know we have had you know that's even possible until you try to speculate. why are we more focused on things like the internet and facebook because. unless you're one of those people that believe met in space was a hoax the bottom line is that no matter what happened to the space race we can always say that we did take one giant leap for mankind. and be the head of the anniversary of the first manned spaceflight we've prepared a special section on our web site at www dot com dedicated to space exploration you
