world war is happening is that the actual site of last year's crash. president. arrived here in selenski presidential plane landing just behind me on the severity of the f.b.o. this is of course the very same f. the. plane that crashed one year ago today a polish president komorowski instead used to drive from moscow and both are here of course to attend special commemoration ceremonies now sunday eight or ten that did mark the one year on the streets of the day that led kitchin ski died on board that ship called one five full flying cousens and moscow together with all ninety five passengers who were on board being included his wife potence first lady the chief of the polish as who was on the chief of its army and many leading polish and peace and historians know the tragic irony of all the houses that the polish delegation was coming to swell ends to mourn the seventy eight out of the three of

the canteen at moscow where they've been twenty thousand holes were shot by soviet secret police of the soviet union had previously denied saved occident was being billed as a symbolic miles stone in the easing of a previously tense russia polish relations since that tragic crash applications for a code into russia have been very keen to stress that the all of the time and to keep the polish of russia's relationship on cool is not that he demonstrated today when the president submitted of an komorowski together attends a commemoration ceremony to be held here at the site of the plane crash into state aviation a commission which concluded aviation experts from russia and poland and the united states concluded its report and delivered their results and they concluded that pilot error was to blame for the tragic crash obviously civilian compounded by very

poor weather conditions dense cold reduced visibility. as severe cycle of. pressure coming from many of the passengers on board to land the plane as soon as possible it's the overriding inclusion is that pilot error was to blame so as far as russia is concerned in the international community those are the results but many in poland i refuse conclusions or at least say that question marks still remain over the conditions of the airfield here in france but also over the role played by ground they have done more perhaps to prevent the land from the plane coming in to land so from the polish side they are still conducting their investigation into the causes of the crash we will be expecting those results sometime in october aside from that politicians and leaders from both poland and russia do stress that on a political basis poland and russia do you continue to work together in moving

forward. as we've just heard it's a year into the investigation but warsaw is still finding it difficult to accept the results. just. believes it's simply because it was such a high profile charge that. the the sensitivity of the surrounding this whole flight three hundred two cats in the history between russia and poland you talk about an air accident in about. the worst possible time of the worst possible place . is that the elite of the polish air force the presidential flights has ended up in a thousand pieces in a forest and the death of the head of state submits it's not an easy pill for the polish slope to swallow i think it's only natural that they don't want to take all of the blame for this they want to see if there is. if they can spread that plane

around but the fact is that this is a controlled flight into terrain accidents and if this is any other aircraft operating any other flights. in a plane i think this the russian conclusions would have simply been accepted and and that's where the fact is that it's part of the reason of this attracts so much attention is because it was president kaczynski on board because it was a high level delegation and because of the nature of the flights and the destination it was going. yes aviation journalist david communes lara from london where we'll be bringing you more from somebody else throughout the day ok you can always log onto our to just calm for thirty coverage. when the news is not enough. when something really crucial. to get down to brass tacks we'll bring you our special coverage. in

a place already seen all of this tragedy the world witnessed the other disaster that left a country devastated. that united two nations in grief. to libya now where colonel gadhafi has accepted the peace proposal from the african union after several hours of talks in the capital tripoli a plan has yet to be approved by the opposition so the delegations next stop was rebel helping those in south african president jacob zuma such an organizational corner of the day to stop this morning keep the ceasefire a chance despite coalition forces aiding the opposition's advance on tripoli rebels are disillusioned with the rising number of so-called friendly fire incidents as a replacement of the ports around no peace not easy to achieve. hasn't spoken with his wife winnie only two months she is in misrata counting the west surrounded by gadhafi forces and he is in the east i can't even call my wife i

don't know whether she's alive for gerrard the front has been moving in both directions was become clear is now without needle support the rebels don't stand a chance against gaddafi superior firepower but after anti-government fighters were killed by mistake in nato airstrikes trusting the alliance with it as one. of the african union has sent a top level delegation to tripoli which proposed a road map for peace it calls for an immediate cease fire and political reform which surprisingly gaddafi has supported me that there's not there's going to be a shoot levied against you if you care even if it was you have said. as long as it's vented hate hate. hate hate you but even though the roadmap includes plans for reform it's not clear whether it also calls for gaddafi and his family to

abandon. the way the political system in libya works is that visually god is not the head of the state he's more of a formal figure or a moral leader as he waits to call himself in reality this man is build a giant power well just wrapped around business and the government and is built on a circle of children people goals personally close to god our feet and his family. also propose a plan which was rejected by the opposition even though individually elections the deal did not rule out the sun importing them. we couldn't agree with the initiative because it didn't guarantee that darby's entire family would leave without that guarantee negotiations are pointless if. the african union's dog asian is doing the . strong falding on monday if the opposition leadership did pledge to listen to their proposal it doesn't seem the rebels are ready to put their guns down how can

we live in peace with this bloody tyrant charged. with more civilians rebels in his troops killed each it's clear a cease fire is needed fast but unless the leaders roadmaps plans involve considerable changes to libya's political system this deadlock is unlikely to end anytime soon you go to school or r g. libya. well still ahead this hour a domestic violence in the u.s. . the fact that it. was another shocking case you know shows an american parent abusing her adopted russian child once again for any attention to back regulation twenty two countries. and on the side where the i.m.f. and world bank were created a new forum hopes to reshape wells economic landscape. in

front so women are now officially banned from wearing a food face and whales in public after a controversial law came into effect the government says that helping muslims adapt to community critics accuse president sarkozy persecuting islam to win back votes from the right the country with europe's biggest was and population a lot of risks igniting social tensions as daniel bushell reports. hindus just become a criminal from today a new french law covering your face in public is designed to make muslim women integrate in society but the softly spoken single mom says he's had the opposite effect. my friends have simply stopped going out at all the new rulings made some scared to speak out many valid not to change the way they dress and move on the minds of what the french republic stands for says business men he pledges to pay

the hundred and fifty euro fine for anyone who continues to wear a veil and is taking the dispute further that also we are seeing france in the european court of human rights it's about freedom of expression i would recommend that man was fired as nicolas sarkozy's integration advisor last month after criticizing the president's approach he now calls on french muslims to wear a similar to the one forced on jews for the nazis i think. these government should learn how to negotiate opinion polls show record low approval ratings for the french government with bank is asians this story into racial tension friday prayers came was going to force so worship on the streets the government looks the building of basic public prayer rooms more discrimination say worshippers against the muslim population has seen riots in recent years against

government policies there are signs of more brewing it is a distinct possibility especially when the domestic. decisions and events in foreign decisions and events come together those foreign events have also reached partners in europe joining claims from illegal deporting room up and sending north. it's a leap in the free for international ngo that splits the franco german axis that drives the u. this. axis as as it has been called sometimes isn't functioning analysts fear france kimo going to lecture muslim regimes when it picks on its own if it minorities why should we start persecuting christians if you are prosecuting muslims saying you have absolutely no credibility of the reliability to tell us

what we should do but critics of. the french government over its hardline policy is simple hard proof of politicians in the ruling party last week quit and all are expected to do the same in the coming days the new bush you see paris. in the past ten years dozens of russian children have been neglected or at least seventeen died in the care of their adoptive american parents a new agreement regulating a process between the two countries unable sign as soon as may but now the wellbeing of hundreds of foster children across the u.s. remains on their running chicken. what is what you think to me. wants us a tape which caused outrage across america and beyond an american mother recorded a video of how she punishes her adopted russian boy and sent it to a popular t.v. show. but ramming hot sauce into

a seven year old christophe's mouth did not seem enough for jessica beagley a freezing shower was next. right now. we've turned a lot of different things to punish the kids spanking we've learned does not work with us well it was only after the television troll that authorities looked into the well being of the russian boy jessica beagley was charged with child abuse the adoption system in the us is such that once a child is adopted by american parents the government does not provide any oversight as to how they are doing some believe because of the absence of supervision the suffering of many adoptive children remains on her adoption agencies in this country are set up as a business because of the fact that they are dealing with human lives here and they're not selling cars or toasters it certainly seems to should be a lot more oversight more than sixty thousand russian children have been adopted by

u.s. parents since one thousand nine hundred one fortunately most of these children are now living in italy. new american families. or soon to nearly kill them dozens harmed and hundreds who disappear. the losses which then they'll be just a lot one of the recent incidents that sent truck waves throughout the world was the killing of the seven year old even scarab i got that was beaten to death by his american adoptive parents last year the russian authorities suspended options by u.s. parents after an american woman put the russian boy should adopted on a plane back to moscow on his own with a note saying she will. a lot of him now russia and the u.s. are working towards an agreement which would provide better government oversight on the wellbeing of adulthood russian children in american families something that would mean regular visits to the families by social workers from both countries some say the biggest obstacle to an agreement is the overall secrecy surrounding

adoptions in the u.s. in the united states of america wants an adoption is finalized that child is considered the same as just to hear dr aarons birth certificate gets reissued pushing the adoptive parents they never even have to tell the child that they were adopted but russia says americans privacy issues should not be an argument for leaving thousands of adopted children without any oversight and protection when you were understands that you cannot turns poor you in the vehicle for peterson across the border to result in a contract but small children will be taken by thousands without any ribbons in the u.s. people wanting to adopt pay private agencies or assessments as to their suitability as parents this of course raises questions as to how objective those assessments can actually be and once a child is adopted there is no follow up on pow they are doing it jessica beagley

had not sent her video to a t.v. show would have never known about her punishment methods just as we don't know about how many other adopted children are now subject to domestic violence in the u.s. i'm going to check on r.t.e. washington d.c. . they can always find more stories on indefinite assists on our website dot com. today russia's most popular home has posed victim to the dreaded. class. with your very own karate kid you know unique series of weekly like you do this promises to teach you how to send. money. to some other international news making headlines around the world this hour. the latest from japan where a magnitude seven point one aftershock has hit the northeast of the country pictures from a local television station showed the moment. exactly one month since the devastating quake and tsunami which killed more than thirteen thousand people left

war two in crisis searching for stability they formed the international monetary fund the world bank and established the u.s. dollar as the global reserve currency. it's here that decades later in the wake of the financial crisis a group of influential economists and former policymakers have brought together to try to rethink that very framework to reflect a different world we've got to have a serious plan to restructure the internationally reconstruct the international institutions for the times that we were not for the past times that have gone by gone time says brown are the centuries of american and european dominance with the bric nations of brazil russia india and china fueling more of global growth they need a bigger seat at the table critics say in with the new should mean out with the old orthodoxy of bretton woods the i.m.f. for one i think i. has mostly played a very destructive role by promoting financial liberalization in many parts of the

world which contributed tremendously to the financial meltdown and the handling of that meltdown in the u.s. with billions to bail out banks that are still too big to fail is just one reason some of these critics give for questioning the u.s. dollar as the global reserve currency if you have only capitalism and you would lose confidence in us institutions which has happened to some degree since two thousand while with the if the dollar and the quality of new yorkers the financial sector could deteriorate very markedly and deterioration in political will for tougher banking reform has some concerned we may be headed for another crisis turns on what one says about crisis but i'd have to say yes the concentration of power in finance is greater today than it was before this crisis but here it's mostly western academics talking shop a new road map won't be drawn up this time it's right and woods according to the man who still has obama's ear his former top economic aide no one is going to run
