hey you're on topic joins together with poland to commemorate the plane crash which killed the polish president that so many other countries politically. also in the program a group of african leaders headed to libya to try and ease the conflict between the government and rebels this is made so draws ever more fire over blogger's in its military operation. in the world without the dollar top economists gather to discuss where the global economy heading and the role of the merging countries.

pm saturday night here in moscow a very good evening for me kevin over here at the r.t.e. news channel tonight our top story it was a fatal flight that killed a president and ninety five others memorial services have been taking place almost a year now since the plane crash in western russia and claimed the lives of the polish leader lech kaczynski and many top officials they've been on their way to commemorate ceremony for the victims of the nine hundred fourteen cats in massacre carried out by stalin secret police in one nine hundred forty artie's katrina grow chose was at the crash scene. it was a day to remember solemnly here against my lance i tell a geisha not more graphic hundred people mostly the reality of some of the things themselves the catastrophe gathered at the sides of the. two police one fifty four lead crashed. a year ago carrying president live his wife maria and many other of

the country's political and military elite delta say the current polish president's wife on the come out also had it the delegations polish delegation in the beginning there was a flower laying ceremony here at the size of the plane crash and there was also mass observed here and then they had to the campaign massacres only sum of money five kilometers from here it's very important to remember what was the parlors of the tree actually never happens of the polish high ranking officials last year that was to corroborate something which carried huge emotional scars of the people of. the massacre twenty two thousand polish officers the country's elite who were slaughtered by stalin secret police and covered at the beginning of world war two and today copying is a symbol of a double tragedy for the polish people now what goes dignified handling of the catastrophe aftermath has been very well received by the people of poland but

a year on differences over the best a geisha is findings opened up between moscow and warsaw and they're not likely to have a quick fix april seventh twenty turn in the spring sunshine blood thinner putin and the. order of victims of the crime scene massacre many find it hard to believe as a two hundred years of mutual amity between russia and poland had been washed away with tears. what branch tears were to fall on the sword just. the whole polish nation was sent into their president government religious leaders and other members of the country's elite gun thing has become a symbol of two polish tragedies and while the first we can judge only from history books the second gun. didn't france of us almost broadcast in real time the plane

catastrophe showed our generation of russians and poles those who didn't witness the second world war how it is to suffer a national tragedy. there was however a twist of irony it was these new catastrophe that healed many of the wounds of the past the symbolic heart was just the beginning a year of unprecedented joint work to find the cause of the crash all of my experience with the russian investigators has been very good there a very high quality organization there is no question about this the commander the captain of the polish craft is to blame for this tragedy. the facts though were hard to take for some the investigation was beginning to take on political overtones with a chance in poland to push the blame onto russia for this report is it joe troop movement exploiting the submissive any cheat of the government of. my claim my

claim my mark is a sham and i would a person ask the question to the traffic converse why there were not so hard the press crew the transcript at the palace last words show there were multiple warnings from the russian air traffic controllers not to land in thick fog and to have a reserve airfield they could be the plane from landing with because that would have been against international aviation law poland disputes russia's findings and its holding its own investigations the rules of huge diplomacy and politics should not hamper the investigation of facts for us back to the most important of history suggests russian poland may take their time to settle their differences especially against the background to the tragedy that such a high price was paid for the recent reconciliation even skeptics realize it would be a shame for it. it tainted once again by did bishan and scapegoating explain the great

chill the r t v the smiley inscription. if it's a better relations between moscow and warsaw were marred by a political struggle with in poland that is the view professedly approach cutoff of lives university is an expert on russia and eurasia. after the kind of free consolation was thought it over on the decision for instance to have the inquiry together to accept from the russian side more intensively the question of cutting and so on and so on and the relation has been hijacked by poorish internal policy and that's why i think the main problem it has nothing to do with it was basically a fight for poor work inside poor and and of course as you know very well when you have a difficult electoral campaign and when you have political forces were going to speak as fiercely to watts from the brother of the former presidents towards the prime

minister first you have just what you can have foreseen it means that the tragedy was used to see that one was too soft. and for the other part watching news of the brotherhood kaczynski to be too hard and coming back digging constantly in into a kind of. those journalists fred we're told was the public and politicians in both countries have been brought closer together as they try to cope with the accident. it was a terrible trouble. if it's crowded it's helpful in a way. what i would say it's like adversity does it challenged the leaders of both sides to rethink their positions to get through that because it was an awful moment and it could have turned really bad. but it didn't because the reader leaders. and the populations are on both sides agree it to some extent rise to the occasion they rethought retrenched and i think we can

say that we're mostly past that and the relationship is on a fairly constructive footing. over the next two days our camera crews are set to bring you special coverage of the commemoration ceremonies will be looking at how both poland and russia are coming together to remember the tragedy now and how the details of the crash came to light. when the leaves is not enough. when it's something really crucial. what 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 the country devastated. and united nations in grief.

question all. next tonight the libyan leader kermit graphics appeared in public for the first time in five days he was shown on state t.v. inspecting a school in the capital tripoli where people's greeted him with anti western slogans meanwhile a group of african leaders are heading the libyan attempts to mediate the conflict between the government and the opposition and in another development british warplanes have hit seven pro-government tanks and called into the u.k.'s ministry of defense but nato is seeing its popularity wane among the rebels time after deadly air strikes on bad positions of these poor asli as the latest from tripoli. made his need to ship 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 air strikes that have left in total more than twenty opposition fighters did and several dozen injured now as you can well

imagine the mood in the tensions here are running high the to kill any because any major secretary general why would grating the loss of life has not come out and said that he is sorry for these in strikes essentially what nato is arguing is that i was not aware that the rebel fighters were using tanks prior to these airstrikes never to stop the fighters from being duffy's from a. now we're hearing a very different argument coming from the rebel commanders they say that they didn't notify beforehand that they had some twenty tanks in their position and that they were moving to the frontline around the city of here a little bit towards a break with those tanks it also seems rather questionable why nature was not aware that the rebel fighters had a chance 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's is better frontline keeps seesawing forwards and backwards that there is

a constant flow of heavy machinery of tanks and it's coming 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 and 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 neglecting its operations here they said that they do not understand why nato has not been able to convince the duffys forces from advancing something one hundred miles into rebel territory why and why and that is true because right at the moment he's forces are holding the apple hand in terms of fighting on the ground. paula slew with the latest from the libyan capital for you and one solid institute of public accuracy says there are some glaring omissions in the words of media outlets reporting washington military campaigns abroad. the assumption after implicit years through the media that uncle sam has behavior over

is good and he's trying to do really good sometimes you screw up but basically the usa has the best of intentions now if there was no oil you know will be your rock and the main export it was to converse i think the us would have invested billions of dollars in military actions but that is part of the equation that are often left out when the news media explain events to us just ahead of the program tonight we ask whatever happened to the space race. we see it it's too expensive there's nothing more to do in outer space well as those more to do but is it worth doing well that's the question we ask you is humanity to troubled by. problems be reason to care about final frontier anymore the president has been gauging reaction and if it also a pipeline that's in the pipeline we travel to see firsthand the progress now in

the construction of north stream it's a project that promises to transform energy ties between russia and europe. major financial players from around the world debating the future of the global economy in the iconic u.s. town of bretton woods the summit held by billionaire philanthropist george soros and focusing on the place emerging nations will take any new world order nazis laura lister reports now from the bench. so part of the themes that we've heard are not so much what needs to take place going forward but that something needs to change in a new new way of thinking about the global economy and the financial order and the tools that people have to use in that countries have to use need to change there needs to be new thinking going forward one of the main issues that we've heard from already is something that the original bretton woods conference held here stablished remember back in one thousand nine hundred four countries all met here to decide on a global economic framework and that was the time that the u.s. dollar was named the reserve currency and countries peg their exchange rate to it

which is the framework that holds today and it's something that's coming under question yesterday we heard george soros say that one of the big questions is if the u.s. dollar should still be the reserve currency and in fact he says that other currencies are already are kind of taking its place that it no longer is that main reserve currency that the euro has a place in the economy that kind of fills that role or could and that so much diversification has happened with currencies and also with commodities like gold and oil and so that's one of the real questions that bankers are asking here maybe the u.s. dollar and the united states in its place that it had when this was a unocal or world back in the one nine hundred forty s. the thinking that that's outdated and that a new framework needs to emerge that takes into account developing economies which have been the economies that have grown at a quick clip and emerged as powers over the last several years including the bric nations of brazil russia india and china and even yesterday we heard a few times about how china has weathered the financial crisis much better than

others and it's been the real winner out of the financial crisis and of globalization fast larry summers yesterday about this about what role these kind of conferences with these major players you know someone like soros anything he says pretty much makes news and is influential when it comes to finance when it comes to the economy so i asked what will these kind of things can have and he said that they do in kind of a cumulative way that they're often the precursor to the actual policy that gets pushed forward years later. but is there a list or reporting there for us and as we've mentioned the conference in bretton woods is being led by george soros is institute for new economic thinking its executive director robert johnson told us that the first thing a financial elite should do is restore public trust in the system. i do not think people trust the government after the financial bailouts i do not trust experts and by and large could we have to treat that seriously you have to grow out of regaining the trust. concept look at some accredited slips are they in greece or

what kind of social responsibility do they think is the rule of the expert on particular concern about the united states which is its center of the world since the middle class in the united states is feeling compressed they're experiencing which you might call a social graph while three percent of most are doing very very well almost all of the gains from one hundred seventy nine to the present perhaps more than one hundred percent have gone to the talk one percent and that's just not that's not sustainable and that is not inspiring of trust people can tell you what you might call look at your ideas or your ideology but the proof of the putting is in the ring and when everybody makes a lot of experts seem to espouse their point of view they're not too clear of the entire society and in what we do interest until you start reflecting the interests of everyone. but it's more the conference at bretton woods on our website r t dot com you can also look at the latest from our washington bureau posted there to find

out why some experts believe america's facing a revenue crisis right now as u.s. corporations of filing tax loopholes overseas to squirrel away their profits more about that online also from us about seat of called the computer. so for the state of the gaming industry find out why they're taking on sony and its best selling playstation. and in the mix what it is that we cannot see is good recipe for a special cause make up sale for you to mark the fiftieth anniversary of your regard becoming the first man in space blast off to our team dog call which tells you how to make the. but more than a thousand kilometers in length from the seabed it's been dubbed as one of the most ambitious marine projects brushes nord stream pipeline which is rapidly nearing

completion now will provide western europe with a new level of energy security. went to the construction site to gauge the process for himself. common in middle of a muddy building site. is a key point and one of the most ambitious engineering projects undertaken anywhere in the world over the last few years. you can see just going into the ground and then out to see behind me is the nord stream as the world's longest underwater gas pipe at the world's thickets pipe and it's also one operating under the most pressure it's a flagship project for russia it was moved for over ten years before construction could actually begin here and that's going to cost over seven billion euros at least. proving that it is capable. of carrying out such large scale projects taking part in all the phases starting from modeling constructing

and operating. this is no ordinary metal pipe it's got to be able to withstand extreme conditions the thickness of the walls it's four centimeters it's able to not break down 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 it's the moment it's big laid 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 of objection was from vajra mentalists those in sweden and finland to have the country for you to see better which the project will

go through but worried about the impact of the project undersea bad and also what might have happened if there are any kind of cyclic emergencies well in this respect gazprom under contract has not only gone and done everything to make sure that iran. you know nothing happened sort of boy but i'm gonna start beyond doubt if the good thing about all the baltic has been damaged already well previous wars and previous pollution and are actually going out of their way to restore stock for their better condition but other objection was political pressure already supplied nearly a third of europe's gas but russian a third of the business pipeline was going to bring a new level of security why of voiding the kind of conflicts which are good transit countries would ukraine and you have passed but basically held the whole of europe hostages the demands of one transit country and recent events in the arab world are playing into the hands of those behind this project with the instability there it's obvious that europe needs north stream war. reporting forest

let's talk about that are you proud that man once walked on the moon. my proud that man was walked out of my proud that man once crossed the atlantic ocean and failed america i think it's a good thing for people who for mankind to do new things and explore and learn no one cares about going into space anymore 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 you know we've got up areas now we've got our boundaries it's just too expensive you know think of people living on another planet would be breaking a boundary and well it would suppose there's far too many problems on the earth to be even thinking about actual space but weren't there just as many problems back

then. perhaps there were. just so used to a. television. cinema. to show social space all the time so it doesn't seem to be so spectacular anymore i think it was it was a new a new or new presidency and who administration you know everything was new so that kind of what obama ran on right those are what must be a great time for him to stay let's really explore it be something better than nothing he'd see that happening no not with him no barack obama should do what john kennedy did start a whole new room really gets out there really for more the more. you know do you think people would be into that as much as they were back in the day or are they too into the internet and facebook. internet so what changed

that we used to focus on it and now we don't seem to care and on the technology we understand a lot more about the universe through. telescopes and other resources so we haven't been to mars but we know what's there are a lot of ways we haven't you know the rubric of time travel you know we have to have you know that's even possible until you try to speculate i guess why are we more focused on things like the internet and facebook because we're dumb yourselves down unless you're one of those people that believe man 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 that one giant leap for mankind. the resident speaks again next week there's no lack of interest on space in this week's what's coming up this edition in a few minutes in fact the team plays a visit to the world's oldest space center star city. all right
