a polish president komorowski instead used to drive from moscow and of course to attend a special commemoration ceremonies now sunday april tenth that did mark the one year on the streets of the day that led kitchens he died on board that you called one five fulfill our people who sent you to moscow together with all ninety five passengers who were on board being created his wife posed as first lady and chief of the polish air foods and the chief of its army and many leading polish and peace and historians now the tragic irony of all the houses that the police delegation was coming to visit to mark the seventieth street of the canteen at moscow with a between the valves and holes in short supply soviet secrets police of the soviet union had previously denied see the accident was being billed as a symbolic milestone in the easing of

a previously tense russia polish relations but since that tragic crash applications for a colons in russia have been very keen to stress that they all determined to keep the polish of russia's relationship on the cool smell that he demonstrated today when the president made that event komorowski to get that tens a commemoration ceremony to be held here at the site off the plane crash into state aviation commission which included aviation experts from russia and poland and the united states concluded its report and delivered their results and they concluded that pilot error rules to blame for the tragic crash obviously severely compounded by very poor weather conditions dense cold reduced visibility and has to be a cycle. pressure coming from many of the passengers on board to land the plane as soon as possible because the override nucleation is its pilots our rules it's a plane say as far as russia is concerned in the international community those are

the results but many in poland i refute these conclusions or at least say that question marks still remain open conditions at the airfield here incentives but also over the role played by grounds here they have done more perhaps prevent the land from the plane coming in at some land so from the polish side they are still conducting their investigation into the causes of the crash we will be expecting at these results sometime in october aside from that politicians and leaders from both poland and russia do stress that on the political basis poland and russia to continue to work together and moving forwards. for more on this now are joined by your joining a small our from the warsaw based center for international relations could have you with us or so the kremlin says russia and poland are going through a reset in their relations but is it fair to say that this was only brought about

because of last year's tragedy no we've. seen as we have realized some time ago that russia it's on the wrong group its relationship with the. european union and with nato. war. going down some of it. and also the same on the russian side so we member of prime minister putin visit the blog only six where you go through the beginning of the war the war and. they did before the crap in. if. they mention some moral. their mission and it's a realisation that we need to progress in that way so now we're going to today's events specifically russian and polish leaders will lay flowers and a wreath at the small and morial how somebody like is the ceremony but you say it

is a symbolic ceremony because it is sort of a process that would just a moment on the polish side with the adjustment to a relationship with russia which is not who is threatening to russia which is provocative and even if we are not all that happy a lot of it my relationship where we have a lot to poke about then slide we each other of course your correspondent go reported who provided some much concerning our his occasional question marks the russian even to gauge. exploited by some people in poland some political forces and from traditionalists who says russia is always the moon will be russia in deposit on the russian side we had realized that russia one thing. we do we. need. all of us and will have some kind of a russian dolly not a little bit in energy field and in a minute or a little better it's all going walking with paul and russia are all in the call get

a look at the crash has been officially blamed on pilot error but poland wants another six months investigation and seems keen that russia share a portion of the blame for this tragedy for the tragedy at least in some circles why do you think that is. because it seems to be the truth of the. major responsibility is on the police i do is no doubt in the police minutes people before the minister. without any hesitation have stated that this is the pilot should have never had landed and it was against all the regulations and there is never been certain pressure to be there by the president look well and but this is not that important but in order it will be credible. to look at it put a little of the situation in one hospital. absolutely wrong and it probably is declared f. you well we might as well. drive minister putin and prime minister to sleep because

it only three days before this is true from what we've been working on there and also the live this stuff of the people out who are you really will be playing with approaching the ed people we love monitoring if you deplane and telling them you may know they need to call on the cell or follow somebody to moscow and the russian side did not want to can reveal who they talked to who gave the order with rising water so would there are some open question which needs to be cleared. because we need to get everything we can into the future relationship and this is going to remain it probably of certain question all right you join your small are from the warsaw bay center for international relations thanks for giving us your perspective pleasure of mine. and. what it's something which. what you want to get down to brass as we bring you

our special coverage here of. you know place already synonymous with tragedy the world witnessed the disaster that left a country devastated. that united two nations in great. turning to libya now where colonel gadhafi has accepted a peace proposal from the african union and after several hours of talks in the capital tripoli that plan has yet to be approved by the opposition so the delegations next stop is rebel held benghazi south african president jacob zuma said the organization will call on nato to stop its bombing and give the ceasefire a chance despite coalition forces aiding the opposition's advance on tripoli rebels are growing disillusioned over the rising number of so-called friendly fire incidents right here is going on reports on how peace may not be easy to achieve.

hasn't spoken with his wife winnie two months she is in misrata and town in the west surrounded by these forces and he is in the east i can't even call my wife i don't know whether she's alive or dead but the front has been moving in both directions it was become clear is there without needle support the rebels don't stand a chance against the superior firepower but after antigovernment fighters were killed by mistake in need or airstrikes trust in the alliance was hit 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 there's not a list of the ation let me guess you you can't even say what you have said here which is really going to have scented place. if you

even go the road map includes plans for reform it's not clear whether it also calls for gadhafi and his family to abandon power the way the political system in libya works is that visually gaga is not the head of the state he's more of a formal figure or a moral leader as he always has to call himself in reality this man is build a giant power web which is wrapped around business and the government and is built on a circle of chosen people goals personally close to our feet and his family. also proposed that peace plan which was rejected by the opposition even though even the elections the deal did not get there the sun importing them. we couldn't agree with the initiative because it didn't guarantee that darby's entire family would leave without their currency negotiations are pointless yes. the african union's delegation is doing the rebel stronghold. on monday if the opposition leadership

did pledge to listen to the proposal it doesn't seem the rebels are ready to put their guns down but how can we live in peace with this bloody tyrant but with more civilians rebels and their fees troops killed each year a cease fire is needed fast but unless the latest roadmaps plans involve considerable changes to leave us political system this deadlock is unlikely to end anytime soon you go and he's going to be in ghazi libya. stay with us here on r t still ahead domestic violence in the u.s. . what it's like to be. another shocking case as the video shows an american parent abusing her adopted russian child once again drawing attention to the lack of regulation which we in this new country. but first in france women are now officially banned from wearing

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. 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. similar to the one forced on jews by the nazis. these government should learn how to negotiate opinion polls show record low approval ratings for the french government with accusations. into racial tension friday prayers came muslims are forced to worship on the street because of what the building of basic public prayer and more discrimination say worshippers against the muslim population has seen riots in recent years against government policies there are signs of more brewing

proof of politicians in the people of the last week quits and we all are expected to do the scene in the coming days you see paris. in the past ten years dozens of russian children have been neglected while at least seventeen have died in the care of their adoptive american parents a new agreement regulating their process between the two countries may be signed as soon as may but for now the wellbeing of hundreds of foster children across the united states remains are known as art he's got a chip on reports. what would you like me. wants us a tape which caused outrage across america and beyond an american mother recorded a video of how she punishes her adopted washington boy and sent it to a popular t.v. show. but running hot sauce into seven year old christophe's amounts did not seem

enough for jessica bigley a freezing shower was next. right now. we've had a lot of different things to punish the kids thinking we've learned does not work with her style it was only after the television troll that authorities looked into the well being of the abducted russian 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 stack that they are chilling with humans why it's here they're not selling cars or toasters it certainly seems it 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 fortune clear what of these children

lol lou and. there was a new american family. sealants and children dozens harmed and condors who disappeared the losses which can have been just a lot one of the recent incidents that sent shock waves throughout the world was the killing of the seven year old even got that was beaten to death by his american adoptive parents last year the russian authorities suspended adoptions 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. engle wanted him now russia and the u.s. are working towards an agreement which would provide better government oversight on the wellbeing of adopted 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 once an adoption is finalized that child is

considered the same as if born to hear top errants birth certificate gets reissued listing 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 or understands that you cannot turn support you in a big put peterson across a border resulting in a contract what small children will be the to thousands result. in the u.s. people wanting to adopt pay private agencies who are assessments as to their suitability as parents is of course raises questions as to how objective those assessments can actually be and once a child is abducted there is no follow up on how they are doing if jessica beagley had not sent her video to a t.v. show would have known about her punishment methods just as we don't know about how

africa and the middle east could bring islamic extremism to europe but first yulia joins us with a business update. thanks ryan hello and welcome to all of his business objects it's great to have you with it's b.p. is preparing to buy out its russian partners in t.n. k d p that's according to a report in the financial times on sourced article the f.t. says the british all major good finance the deal alone all together with state owned loss that the stake may be worth not just thirty billion dollars b.p. is trying to save the arctic exploration and share small do it signed with ross netting january and. come out joining me live by our correspondent in london or at least hello there laura so it looks like we're getting down to the endgame own weight. we certainly are the response to this ruling by the court of arbitration at

the end of last week by the deputy prime minister for energy steps and wants to impose again this april fourteenth deadline so the policies are going to go until thursday to resolve this situation now the government up till now has had quite a hands off attitude waiting to see if these parties can sort out this dispute amongst themselves but what we're expecting to see this week is an increase in pressure applied by the states as that deadline looms closer and then possibly direct intervention if we get to thursday morning and nothing has been sold b.p. of course also wants this dispute resolved very much we have seen it affecting be the share price and in fact over the weekend there was rumors that b.p. might become a takeover target if the share price valuation didn't improve we've also been hearing these rumors as you say all these reports that b.p. might be preparing to buy out south of the stake in t. and k. b.p. they we see that they are might be amenable to that in fact because of course if

this deal did go ahead then the russian investors in t a k p p would. be investment there wouldn't be that there'd be hardly any growth potential left if that paper the market that could be one solution if indeed they are were prepared to sell which is by no means guaranteed. why why are the parties so desperately pushing ahead with the deal. well russia there are three main reasons that russia really wants this deal to go ahead the first is that of course it wants to remain the world's biggest energy producer and in order to do that it needs to open up new exploration. levels and resources of oil grow less in the areas that it's already exploring and so that means opening up terra she like the arctic it also wants to be at the thought brunt of arctic exploration because russia sees this very much in its own backyard but it can't go it alone in this hospitable to rain it needs the

expertise of international companies like like b.p. and also it would be proof of russia's improving investment climate previous b.p. shell deals in russia has been cited by critics as essentially bad investments experiences but this new commitment by b.p. gives the government a chance to show that the rules that govern investment into russia have improved and of course b.p. on the other side desperately wants this russia is one of the few places that it can still go for new production growth it's a reputation in the u.s. is increasingly and if it can't find this new growth then it will could lead to a valuation sound great and indeed the threat of being a takeover target at some point in the not too distant future so there's a lot to lose the all sides here. is arguably in the strongest position because of these repeated rulings by the operation court and there's really only this very short time in which to resolve it. lower and that reporting there live from london
