events unfolding in minsk tonight why would this happen why would bella be a target who do you think could be behind this if it is something sinister if it is some sort of form well what we know so far is so sketchy that it really isn't a good idea to leap to any conclusions of torah. but it's not a country that has. normal. for lack of a better word terrorist take problems it's not the usual destination for terrorists it doesn't have a church or some related internal problem that would make it a target for that but it does have escalating political tensions within its own society you know that there was the elections in december. just in constant talk of . president having read that election they keep he put down demonstrations and protests rather rather brutally arrested over six hundred people

so if this is the internal opposition to look at. the turning to these kind of tactics it would represent a radical departure. from the peaceful means of protest at the. right used in the past but it's we too soon to do more than just actual poker at this point and the kind of the explosion for being so close to the anniversary of the moscow metro bombings of course and deeds extremely uncertain as well and maybe suspicious to get the exam about that. i can't see why chechen terrorists or north cockies in terrorist strike in minsk it's a different country. what is specious is the subway station that was hit it's very close to the presidential palace. just a couple hundred yards i understand certainly suggest insurable would report

dissenters going over to terrorist tactics but as i say we can see. unfortunately of him some more details coming through now reporting over the last hour that eyewitnesses these unofficial figures eyewitnesses saying that they've seen the think at least two dead the figures now gone up to five from the latest figures we're getting and also reports again unofficial of fifty injured and what does this say and this is such a an open ended question i guess a lot about a strain but what does it say about metro security it seems countries wait for a child to be like this before improving security measures every time we're all was security ok accord any more being done any thoughts on. well no i think if you are right in the muslim metros i do. very often almost every day. it's almost impossible to lock this huge sprawling system down in the same goes for pell risk if you can. you know that it's vulnerable in same way.

although we don't know for sure that it wasn't some sort of accidental blast. capel destruction has occurred does remind of a liberal well that's for sure. and it's one more example illustration of really how much we are all. to a few crazy terrorists with an agenda. for coming on this very early stage of what's happening here give me. a comment especially can as you say it's very early days difficult draw any conclusions at the moment fred ware from the christian science monitor thank you. eight thirty three pm moscow time our programs continue will bring you up to date on the latest from in school shortly but right now the uprisings across the arab world raise concerns in europe that a wave of refugees could flood the continent making streamers with it but as belgian foreign ministers say even carry told r.t.

the unrest is a quest for the more prosy it shouldn't be viewed theory that interview coming rather. thank. god your foreign minister says but i thank you very much for being with us today pleasure so dr has a factory been without a garment longer than iraq has actually had of all its does this mean that politics has failed at all that's not absolutely true because we have a government we have a clear taker government and unlike situation so in other countries after elections there is no government to do that for the former government or was in place before the elections still takes the responsibility in a caretaker capacity it is a government that still has the majority in the bills and parliament and it's

a government that is capable of deciding on things like the budget we have a deficit which is why the rest of the european union countries we have heard a very good experience in presiding the european union during the last six months of two thousand and ten and also when it comes to our international obligations that i have taken part in and some situations think of libya for example we are capable also mobilizing support from our parliament to take the right decisions so this means that even with a caretaker government the belgian economy continues to be productive to work and of course it would be better to have a full fledged government the soonest possible but there is no question of not having a government that is belgian caretaker government and the crisis in politics and biology say about the national governments in the e.u. are they really necessary or can we actually brussels just take their place oh i

think it's clear that the european union is of course a formidable in this instrument but that does not replace the sovereignty of the individual states states. clear that the twenty seven member states are still sovereign countries who have understood of course to be more united with for example economic policy is something which is in the interest of each and every country but there is no such thing as a european government or something like european governance because. the president of the european council. of ours has been very successful in getting the different states of the european union closer to each other also when it comes to fiscal policy and i think that this will give new opportunities for growth in the on the european continent do you think has any fears of a belgium grapple ration and those are the words of your prime minister is there one who is in charge right now given pressures of more independence across europe

in general i don't think the question of evaporation and i'm convinced that we will be able to solve the difficulties and the problems in the months ahead and have a look at the results that's the most important thing the proof of the pudding is always in the eating have a look at what the results are when it comes to build. budget and build an economy and you see but it's very sound. wanting to express the residents are of moroccan descent but we have a point six million belgians and of course in some cities like in brussels there's a situation where we have more than one hundred nationalities that is of course one of the advantages of being an international city a city where the different communities can find their place and of course. the situation as far as the demographics is concerned is essentially based on being a country that is welcome to welcoming each and everybody who comes through to this

crossroads of the european union where you say that those people who are of arabic descent are well integrated into. society world the player and of course the integration efforts because they still have to continue to in order to be successful you heard some comments for example from i'm going to medical them also from people in the united kingdom speaking about some of the difficulties when it comes to integration honestly think that the bills and society is a place where most of the people are tolerant or accepting each other and try to make a good future for their children without having too many conflicts i must insist upon the fact that even if today there are some political discussions there is no bloodshed in my country for decades we have been able to solve our problems by talking and continue to talk even without using violence and i think that is also

an example to be given to some other countries where unfortunately discussions and difficulties lead to provide evidence that is not the case in my country so far as really a go it's been said that while the coalition had no accident strategy in iraq it didn't have an answer. what do you think what concerns do you have for libya. well the built in diplomacy put forward three conditions in order to think that an intervention also a military intervention could be useful first and foremost of course it had to be a response to a legitimate question coming from the libyan population and the resolution of the united nations stating clearly that it is in order to protect citizens. realizes that condition second big condition is that we need to have the support of the regional. organizations especially the arab league with the also with far as the belgians are concerned the african union for us

a good relationship with the african continent is very important but the decision by the arab league to join those who thought that so. something had to be done with the menaces the atrocities that were committed by duffy well the fact that the arab league joined these these people wanting to go will go to action was the second condition and the third of course was making sure that there was a legitimate mandate from the united nations and these three conditions being reunited. therefore logical that not only did belgian government but also the parliament with unanimity decided to contribute. some military efforts and indeed exist that is now the most important thing of course is to understand that the solution a durable solution for libya is not possible only by military means it has to be something which is holistic and we need to be able to present

a future or help. to create a future which has to be libyan led it is the libyans have to decide on their future but i think that countries in europe and the european union as a whole can be helpful in that respect not in the least in an army corp q does nato here including belgium has a precise understanding please point who are there helping in libya the syrians or the rebels it is absolutely about protecting the civilians and like secretary general of nato rasmussen said protecting citizens is not the same thing as arming them so the belgian position is quite orthodox we have a good lecture of what was the resolution in the united nations in new york and for us it's about protecting civilians coming to a situation in which. is no longer the leader of libya

is a straight man that is of course already made in the past before resolution one thousand nine hundred ninety three but it is not through military means. but we're going to establish that it's a holistic approach which is not only military and especially also with a clear focus on libya and self-determination that we're going to assist such a future there with the recent unrest in north africa their migration of terrorism . and that i think that having more democracy can never be something to fear having the situation where arab youngsters to the rules to say listen there are some rights that are doing if there are still the right to express yourself the right to choose your own leaders the right to be free that is not something that is only there for some of the countries that's something which is universal and talking about the changes that come about in the in the arab world

i think we need not to be naive but we need to see that this is essentially the quest of people wanting more democracy and so linking the quest for democracy with fear i do not agree with that fundamentally think that if we are smart that if we help these countries to go in there and their way towards democracy it will be helpful also for our democracy. thank you for a century problem whatsoever thank you. there is no substitute and there is no. military.

and we must. approve. of investment in the peace use. just incredible investment from the united states and from the european union we can countries like this. is completely. if we start putting outer space.

wealthy british. free. market why not. find out what's really happening to the global economy because a record. breaking news this explosion that's a metro station in the capital means the explosion. of the latest details from show the latest pictures that we have through hi there what more do we know i got a movie on official death toll has risen now maybe seven unconfirmed reports of seven dead yeah. at the moment but what we're hearing from the eyewitness accounts it just makes it around seven people have died in that it's

place at least fifty people happy now that happened at five fifty six pm local time that's the latest. much as they should take the stuff in the back there we should have to live minutes now to study explosions happening at rush hour so a lot of people would have been traveling three times that a station two trains had just come in now it's not clear exactly what caused that explosion i think we've been hearing from the eyewitness accounts of people coming out of the met faced a sixty days with this a plus. thank plaything some of the injuries despite a very serious indeed one month of means that like that i think we've got the emergency status is working on the site out there maybe to do with the engines trying to stop this exactly what happened is he said the explosion going off on the escalator just look at the after later i collapsed after thought so that would certainly have contributed to the number of people he was having to and that it's

late here so we're hearing from the a.p.c. a news agency that by witnesses reporting a big crater they can be seen at the scene of the explosion nearby with an estimate or was i guess i would listen saying you know people were killed or injured not only by the bomb blast but also by the collapsing stairway the police. haven't released any information as such nothing officially coming through from them of the moment but as you say the latest we have from eyewitnesses that they think there are at least seven dead right about fifty injured misuse a police of cooled off approach used to be up to brisk people off sky subway stations and this happened during rush hour whatever caused this explosion whatever the source was however it happened it couldn't come to the worst time rush hour people left heading home for a day's work these are the latest pictures so we showing our viewers. on the screen . somebody she's obviously let their mobile phone film away in the in the pilot

where they obviously caught up in it as well absolutely shocking for anyone to go through were. see a lady sitting down here in a minute or two a face blackened by some of their brain maybe that's been knocked up by that explosion a guy there with a blood stained handkerchief. i think this is the maybe we're coming to you now we're just going to start of the hell of the series a minute anyway there she is the north thoughts go out to her tonight and should be ok the moment has a say seven days and that's not confirmed fifty injured again not confirmed. it looks like there's been a lot more there has been a blast but we don't know what's caused it on what the reason for it was two nights in minsk at the alter briscoe. subway station is also i believe connected to the couple of sky a subway station police and cordoned off those approaches emergency services have

been evacuating people from the underground so far as you can see the. people saying there's no panic people look reasonably calm despite everything that's going on around them. traffic on the streets we're hearing well at least initially about forty five minutes ago have been being blocked i guess it's not causing too much trouble up above but of course the emergency services what we want to get there as quickly as possible how many are there already. we'll bring you more as we know it that is the breaking news at this hour and you have got the latest information from the outside is trying to muster. up the scorsese and here's the headline any setback defending champions and he

it i thought on sunday after a hard collision between father off about reading and keep off the home side forward so we realised it was serious knee injury rules and not least the rest of the finals got off to a five plus twenty minute penalty post solid aspen scored two goals on the powerplay to eventually win the game three one and to get to know me in the final series has the power to stand for a good up to five games. within a discipline not only in the gay child disciplinary committee has reversed should a father of five plus twenty minute penalty the judge's decision has been recorded as an unintentional mistake. that is very difficult in terms of interpretation of had lost control over the plot just moments before and she tried to possess it as a tragic accident is part of the game's lot really. finally gulf and south africa's charles schwartzel has won the us masters to claim his first major championship he

birgitte the last four holes to win by two shots from australia's jason day and adam scott overnight leader warning michael roy i had my bearing on gusto and finished wild on the field michael roy between two houses on the tenth after a wave that shot triple bogey this hole and for a time for him to finally reach the greens his touch up wasn't much better hitting the worst run of the day eight over par eighty inch way down the leaderboard however that did open things up for a lead change hands eight times in the final round scott tops the leaderboard at one stage sixty seven. they did enough to finish second alongside him and tiger woods also has a sixty seven to tie for first place. that's the schwartzel who emerged from the pack he hits the best round of the day six under par sixty six from the off he was looking good shots like this approach on the third. round at the end of phase three

for birdies finishing this two and our first overall play from a two shot victory and his first major so i thought the twenty six year old was the delight of. a scene in so many things that i am you know guys walking upright. you know just walking out is such a special feeling knowing that i mean i knew no one should leave so you don't want to get too excited about it you still got a friend to go through in a moment but you know it just it really felt good. but i practiced it in the practice round and i think my carry on i would be able that's what i wanted it. to i can only myself a few longer but most of them managed to find about on all. the sports he says bulletin but i'll be back with another observation just on its last time i think.
