world's most wanted terrorists. broadcasting live from our studios in moscow where it is five o'clock on a monday morning we're glad to have you with us this is r.t. one year on and poland is remembering the victims of the presidential plane crash in western russia in which many of the country's political elite perished including the head of state president lech kaczynski commemoration events have been held in russia and in poland where more take place this week the tragedy however ignited a warming in historically frosty relations between moscow and warsaw but as the reports some politicians are trying to politicize the tragedy. well it certainly has been one a very. very tragic day for poland just like exactly twelve months ago when i was here at the very same spot eyes. huge crowds of people gathered here and so is the
9:02 pm
story so has the story of today also been thousands and thousands have been coming here to the square in front of the presidential palace in warsaw to commemorate those who died in that tragic plane crash near by the russian city of slavyansk where most of the polish political elite perished alongside with the country's president and his wife indeed we have seen lots of different services and vigils held across this city at the cemetery where the people who died in the in the plane crash were buried a year ago their relatives came there to lay flowers in roots certainly the vigils that the most important cathedrals and churches across the capital and indeed across the whole country as well that's also was broadcasted on l.c.d. screens across the central polish capital if there was even a vigil held at the runway of a v.i.p. airport from where the presidential plane to call for twelve months ago and never returned now at the rally here of the mass rally at the central square has had
9:03 pm
different colors all throughout the day first it was all about mourning the dead then it became like a religious gathering with a vigil held right here in right in front of the presidential palace and now this rally has turned political with the remaining several thousand people here in the square chanting some political slogans in fact asking for the government for the prime minister's head and for the president's head believing that there have been inadequate in investigating this story many experts note that this has been the sentiment of the last several months in poland with the radical nationalist forces saying using very harsh and side russian rhetoric and even going as far as creating conspiracy theories that the death of the polish president lech kaczynski was in fact according to them between the power circles in warsaw and the ones in moscow something of course very few in poland actually believe in and. nevertheless it has
9:04 pm
been all about emotion today and i had the fact had the feeling that the people who gathered here there were still more about mourning the dead that rather than going into the political discourse and having been walking through the crowd all throughout the day i've seen tears in the eyes of the people they were holding photographs and candles trying to remember what exactly happened twelve months ago and how difficult this loss has been for this country party's election year show us the reporting there from warsaw now many of the wounds of that tragedy have yet to heal and to poland and in poland excuse me there is still debate about the circumstances of the crash but aviation journalist david kaminski morrow told me it would be hard for poland to contest the findings by the russian investigators the facts of this case are a fairly unequivocal you can say it would take a fairly elaborate reinterpretation of an awful lot of hard factual data to come up with an alternative to what the instate aviation committee has
9:05 pm
already published i mean there may be minor differences in in what happened there's always room for a certain amount of interpretation and i think it depends on whether the president wants to start with the evidence and finish with a conclusion or whether it won't start with a conclusion and cherry pick the evidence. when she's not enough. when it's something really crucial. what you want to get down to brass as we bring you our special coverage here. in a place already seen all of this with tragedy the world witnessed another disaster that left the country devastated. and united two nations in grief. questionable. moving on to a libya now or colonel gadhafi has agreed to
9:06 pm
a ceasefire proposal by visiting african union officials it now waits approval from rebel forces but they say there can be no negotiations as long as gadhafi remains in power african union president jacob zuma says gadhafi has also agreed to let humanitarian aid into the country under the plan the libyan leader's forces have been trying to retake the frontline city of daraa from which from the opposition who've been recovering positions with the help of the strikes but while the western alliance says it's just roid significant stockpiles of cut off these tanks and the nations across the country rebels are growing disillusioned over the rising toll of friendly fire casualties since nato took over control of the no fly zone its air strikes have killed at least twenty and i could off the fighters and injured dozens more piece going off as spoken to rebels in the city of benghazi. very often would be an army move to any service all the way to retirement but now he's fighting for
9:07 pm
the revolution and he's among the few rebels at the front with the military training and experience with their forces for not even we are ready to fight to the death but with these weapons we don't stand a chance against gadhafi since needing to control the north winds on operation it's going to need more than one thousand sorties into maybe the u.n. screens around the good of going to have these forces have now been destroyed with he's going to help from the skerries on the ground and the rebels are still deep in the bounding. later or three old civilians in misrata daily or green monitors. but. just a week ago i think was the sunni community seems the entire cppcc support was the probably still that there still people missing. it will be the it seems to reach. all the us has been tactics is raising as well
9:08 pm
protests way this one are becoming parents seen me or if using media all feeling to protect civilians they are asking for help anymore the are demanding it i do think that i do think we're all there waiting for for gadhafi to secure still we demand a new u.n. resolution which would allow us. but experts say arming the rebels alone wouldn't help us win war with the rebels need not so much arms they can use arms and training we're not going to be nice or mean force on our servicing the us in egypt . and even if you force is going beyond the mandate of the un resolution that established north winds are you going to spin off r d. i v. us has also been flooding through syria yemen and egypt this week and with nato
9:09 pm
forces stuck deep in libya there is speculation that destabilizing the region is the real agenda of the west or he's going to try to can comment on how the u.s. is involved in a strategy. as waves of public rage sweep through north africa and the middle east what powers jump on as many analysts say in an attempt to direct the waves of progress in a way that's most favorable for them in libya forging relationship with the opposition so that if gadhafi goes there are people there to do business with as syria popular raphe gather steam some experts say western powers might see the advantages of getting involved there to these three countries iran syria and libya are the main countries that will not align themselves with a maverick to the global power elites or western powers interested objectives in north africa and in the middle east as for example egypt will do or you see that with hosni mubarak and definitely. kuwait saudi arabia syria is iran's closest ally
9:10 pm
in the region and the cost to support the remark in syria are fun come with mentions of you ran syria is obviously a strategic ally for iran in the in the region and without syria iran loses there and there are bridge their land bridge to lebanon and they're hit hezbollah enforces so of course hezbollah would suffer if the syrian regime was to fall and that would be stabilising iran and weaken its power in the region which would be an obvious benefit to being called american forces some experts even believe that this stabilize ation is part of the strategy the west perceives in the region we are seeing reflects a strategy which includes our moms other points the generalized weakening of the sovereign nation states of the sovereign genes in the arab world in order to try to isolate iran even with very few perhaps no friendly countries in the region and that will leave iran pretty much alone at least in the arab world and would facilitate further turmoil inside iran although the u.s.
9:11 pm
secretary of state has ruled out america's involvement in syria for now the country's defense secretary card with the syrian army to quote empower arab revolution and follow the example of egypt's military syria. a road america's list. eight. if you choose the way you will be many say you ran though would be a tough car and no matter how much washington you want the regime there are too strong for now it's seen as a mission impossible i'm sure that there are some in the u.s. who would love to attack iran and there are others who would like to take over the iranian opposition i think they know that the iranian opposition is not so fond of the united states they have a long memory in iran people remember the role of the united states in overthrowing the precursor to the shah of iran overthrowing the democratically elected
9:12 pm
