rather reuss mourns the victims of monday's terrible loss that tore through the capital's neferet killing twelve and injuring more than two hundred people. retread better have a says it's not just colonel gadhafi and the rebels who are to blame for the situation that the coalition forces are also sending the country spiralling out of control. the american taxpayers are forced to pay more than any other country in the world to fund washington's governor and military campaigns like health care and education and something.

and you're watching autumn where live from moscow welcome to the program the better it says mourning the victims of monday's terror attack that rocked the city's metro killing twelve people injuring almost two hundred the first funerals will be taking place throughout the day in minsk as the current richard reports from the site of the tragedy. wednesday is an official day of mourning here in belo rose says doesn't related by the state and hundreds of people have been flooding into the sides of the tragedy to lay flowers you can see candles biblical passages written in different languages all around here trying to express their support of the relatives of those killed and injured in this school some terrorist attack the way they can. it's really scary and very sad that people innocent people who

can't i sympathize with their families but. how are you feeling this morning after the blast. lost lives it hurts it hurts terribly people need to understand and value every moment of their lives and remember those who died i'm sorry but i can't. well this natural station is the busiest on the subway system. only. the capital intersect here this explains why there was so many commuters during the evening rush hour on monday no i would miss a save the how do you want it people were carried out onto the street from france to the metro station and many of those want to still remain in hospitals in intensive care units different places across the capital of means it wasn't immediately clear whether it was an accident or an act of terror but now the main

version being considered by investigators is that if it was a terrorist attack or it's under the question for the president of the country it's time to rush. to the great you see russia has huge experience in dealing with the aftermath of similar types of an investigation but also understand that apart from . the u.k. will be assisting. us now monday's attack is the worst the most gruesome act of terror which probably was seen three out of the second world war completely amping people until the evening on april eleventh terrorism is now a grim wasn't a reality country as well. with special services say they hope to make rapid progress in the investigation into the bombing. suspects terrorism experts who recess it's still a mystery. what motivation was. this looks like

a very sophisticated attack and that's what makes it very very mysterious because no experience of this and there are no obvious people who would wish to strike who was behind it we don't know but in terms of preventing it no doubt things will change but i think already there been announcements of security measures that will be placed in public spaces know about the new type of things we see in america and europe and indeed in russia will now be in place in belarus. terrorism experts talking to us from london. says the situation in libya is out of control blaming colonel gadhafi and the rebels as well as nato forces for failing to stop the country tearing itself apart russian president spoke to journalists ahead of a greater trade trip to china. emerging economies like. sarah sarah there were some pretty critical views from the president on the situation. with speaking chinese journalists ahead of. the

meeting with his counterparts the other the brics china india brazil. will be discussing how best to respond. to asia we can hear now from the president he's warning that the real situation. as. you conclude he didn't feed does not control the situation because the country's convulsed by civil war and many of his actions may be qualified as crimes need to just not control the situation either because he does not have a mandate to carry out large scale operations for us reasons and the no fly zone operation has acquired very unusual features because in fact it turns out to be the use of force. no result has been attained and as far as i understand it everybody

has different plans in this regard the rebels do not control the situation because they do not have enough forces means all possibilities the situation has already got out of control and it's very sad for. the president once again reiterating russia stance on the situation right from the beginning with them but russia is being everything pushing that dialogue now russia and china face the. last months u.n. resolution that if yes strikes that by the u.s. and its allies to protect the civilians from. the sorry friend. russia china face painting from that and present it but it's saying. basically that of course it's a plane from the ongoing situation that. has its parts play as well.

as an opinion what one should understand that the viability of the libyan state itself is now at stake. i mean the international community and certainly the people of libya count a single libya or several states governed by puppet governments and even by new pretty radical six trina's this strikes quite realistic. at present the fate of again. reassuring the fact that the priority really now is bring about a ceasefire between. the rebels in libya syria the interview did cover all the issues as well and of course journalists are rarely missed a chance to ask president yet if you'd like to stay for another term so the phone to reveal his hand on that. was one of the questions the first thing that's pretty regularly in the sort of interview we're going to have to wait a little longer yet. make clear he did say he hasn't ruled this

out no guarantee. you knew there was. a possibility of my running for a second presidential election the decision will be taken very shortly since the elections are less than a year away this decision however should be fun. and second it should take into account the existing social situation we can inform each of them and most importantly the attitude of people before making any such decisions one has to greater chances and avoid actually mechanically and. with a clear understanding of the situation. no they he didn't make it clear whether he was going to be voting for another third. person his friendship with prime minister. saying that they're still friends but they had a very different responsibility to the little bit about how he likes to spend his

life. but it comes to whether he will be running for president again we're going to have to wait a little longer. ok. thank you. you can watch the full version of president interview on our website dot com. still ahead this hour fighting for survival crews that are a lot. of work for another strong quake forces them to the. testing times fifty years after gardens of groundbreaking flight to the stars are going to produce training to put through their paces. the u.s. is planning to spend around seven hundred billion dollars on this year make decided on the thirteen billion dollars of spending cuts coming out of the country's

defense budget since the pentagon is going around over social programs and this never ending talk of. caring for the ports. plenty is on the u.s. chopping block this week health care education infrastructure. everything that is except for the pentagon my greatest fear is that in economic tough times the people will see the defense budget as the place to solve the nation's deficit problems i would be very reluctant to cut defense spending until we see really how these two conflicts were and are going to come out worldwide military spending increased by twenty point six billion dollars in two thousand and ten and nineteen point six billion of that was the u.s.

alone according to the stock on international peace research institute the u.s. very much sees itself as a global military power it's the only global military superpower. so it perceives it security interests as encompassing the whole world in two thousand and ten the u.s. spent more on its military than the next highest countries combined was both presidents bush and obama have ripped of the wars defense spending in the us has increased eighty one percent since two thousand why this seems to reflect a boy. prioritization of military and military conceptions of security even in the face of such difficult economic times and american earning federal minimum wage and working forty hours a week fifty two weeks a year can expect to earn a little over fifteen thousand dollars that's here well below the poverty line they can also expect to pay more than five hundred dollars directly to the pentagon and

american earning fifty thousand dollars a year wealthy their income. over two thousand and go directly to america's war they thought they were controlling the oil fields and rolling them for. just. those tax dollars also go to maintaining over one thousand us bases the sites the world why as well as the pentagon's two hundred thirty four golf courses. children poor women homeless you know take care of the needs of our population to spend enormous amounts of money on the pentagon budget while we or every program is being cut is just fraudulent in obscene try to put it on the ground read it read out. four cents of every dollar americans pay in taxes goes to funding past and future war and for all the tough talk by president obama about making hard choices cutting the budget and closing the deficit gap many americans are wondering

when it will be the pentagon's turn to tighten its belt and ford r. t. washington d.c. . engine is that the parents struggling for plugs have resumed their efforts to remove radioactive water it comes after a powerful aftershock forced crews to leave the area he's going to raise them around the city to the maximum level of seven this puts the crisis on a par with a normal disaster this is very stormy day three thirty radiation from the damaged plant previously thought but officials say that the upgrade to the situation has become critical meanwhile the thames to restore systems that reactors are used to being closer to success you can engineer the something things that are in these governments has downplayed extensible disaster. the japanese are really committed to nuclear and so there was a lot of interest it wanted to downplay it you know i studied three mile island

accident literature noble you know this. and it's pretty standard practice that when things are breaking you seem to look for the best alternative as opposed to the most realistic one and i think the japanese wanted a nice outcome and believed whatever insurance gave them that indication if they don't have power to the fuel the whole cooling systems that any of the reactors in uniform are is the worst because that fuel all has the freshest fuel it's that the most physically heart and in addition uniforms got a crack in the side of it so they can even if they had water to cool it it's going to run out the crack that's the child has the child this problem on site right now . what are all the next developments on the cards if the crisis on our web sites that's called. braved evacuations.

the. and the british foreign ministers have called on nato to do more to stop its forces in libya despite the kind of efficiency strikes in advance to the west has been halted it. seems for weeks. and contributor. to nato which seems unable to handle the situation. by all accounts of the third overt u.s. military intervention on obama's watch could possibly qualify as one of the most successful craigmile or stalemate during the second phase of western invasion into a levy the united states effectively repeated the same mistake which they did in two thousand and five in afghanistan when they transferred that command and control in southern part of the kountry to its nato allies as

a result it was up to the united states marines to save the courageous british from this self-made disaster in helmand province reach was turned by the u.k. into the global opium drug bust it case now depends again has repeated the same folly in libya when they persecute the sleet transferred its command of the operation to. nato allies now the european side of nato has demonstrated to the whole world that within one week they can accomplish two big time friendly fire air assault on the rebel forces and as such they successfully have qualified for the military guinness book of disasters. well let's have a brief look now at some well these wrecking headlines this hour. proposed from the leader of iraq has had

a heart attack and there is an intensive care that's according to injection state seem to be he was taken ill route reteamed best to get to the point the basic rule killing there are eight hundred protesters thousands of people have already started picketing outside the hospital naming the barrack rats once in the country a former leader has been under house arrest since he was in the thread in the uprising on every level. in auburn coast french and u.n. troops have seized from forces in all of the former president went bad mortars cannons and rockets were found in the trash in the ancient world until it comes off to surrender to french forces supported need to rush into an article in the last november's elections is no waiting a criminal investigation into his actions and those of his own ferrari resulting conflict between the two opponents has claimed many a thousand lawyers. the tail section of the

air france jet crashed off brazil's coast and comparison and none has been found relatives of those killed say they have been told it's relatively intact raising hopes books as with other found could help investigators finally piece together what led to the crash all two hundred twenty eight people on board. now it's been a half a century since you would have gone and became the first on space blasting off into the pages of history but that monumental achievement was the result of years of painstaking work on top secrecy a team of dedicated volunteers putting equipment and media through its paces and then one day propelling the car into the stands artie's their particular story. he went through hell on earth to put the first man in space john lennon who named for a russian was a volunteer could trust to make we've been a little reach orbit and it took him to the limits of human insurance. no one in

the world has ever experienced what i did nineteen g. on the centrifuge that means my wage increase nineteen fold blood was using through my paws later i was forbidden to even mention it back then everything was a secret in one nine hundred fifty nine when the original became a test volunteer no one knew just how humans would be edited by zero gravity extreme stress or even the sense of endlessness space was the great unknown and to many questions and answering. of any emergency that could happen to a cosmonaut during a flight and in reality they really experience all this i had to endure once during the task of trying to save angle for an emergency landing seat i was thrown from a fourteen me to height just like that freefall another time i spent thirteen hours in ice cold water to test a spacesuit on the state commission came to check on me in the morning someone said

surprised look he's alive. experiments using humans what top secret in the soviet union and it wasn't thing the volunteers were often are. we were brought up that way we weren't afraid of extreme situations or simply no fear as the space program developed this became more sophisticated the imitation of weightlessness or immersion was invented and soon preceded many trials one of the most unpleasant tests is being stuck in this cab so after the martian. being battered by the waves of the open sea. and actual cross when old bones a maximum of three hours in this position as part of their training while the test engineers have two or three or four days in forty degree heat or cold. erin lasted the longest of all three days while his seasick companions gave up one

after another but it was going to berkeley not everyone survived those tests and we never thought of ourselves as heroes we bled and hurt but told noble we needed to prove humans could do it and after all those years and over three hundred experiments i came to the conclusion my point was maybe even more important for space science than if i went into space once or twice. nowadays the cosmonaut survival course is based on their work except the potential cost when odds are not pushed to the limit and they do have a chance after having to space one day through many of the tests engineers wanted to become astronauts but that's exactly their tragedy and they simply sekret fice themselves or their names may be lost in history but in many ways it was them the unknown here is who made the dream of space a reality gary pushkar r.t.

story just north of moscow. great stuff you say. is. thank you carrie hello and welcome to business our say thanks for joining us commodity prices are done much to support russia's markets in the first quarter or oil metals and stuff commodities such as wheat and sugar have all been setting records there's been speculation the rally will continue and result in a commodity like hans in some stocks so back explains why. on the energy sector we actually have the rising of the year the rising prices over the last few months security to synchronise growth but also more importantly we've got the rest of middle east and north africa the markets kind of driven on by fear right now a fear of a conservative but it could spread to other other countries in the in the middle east we could easily run into a situation as we saw back in two thousand where price cuts by quatermass are going

up and if we transfer aquaculture so we've got the really bad weather last year which left the global stocks of course to go through. very complete a levels again if we should have a repeat of the first weatherford we had last year that it could cause. shocks in some of these some of these markets very particularly like corn and soybeans where supplies are already very low levels. russian helicopters flying to stanford in neuromarketing on its proposed initial public offering in london next week the state run aircraft maker is dying up to five hundred million dollars in the i.p.o. as the government steps up its bid to raise funds for the defense industry russian helicopters which posted revenues of two point two billion dollars in twenty ten is a holding company for eleven regional manufacturers and was killed by the state in twenty ten it on his head major control says his company hasn't bush's promise with . my currently we are growing faster than our competitors and we are not afraid of

such competition already last year we successfully entered into the latin american and african market one of our main goals is to cement our position among the top three leading helicopter producers in the world. let's look at how the market's up with forming even markets bounce back from earlier losses with the nikkei up grounds a cruel hoax on the south shore as a tokyo electric jumped twelve percent after a report saying that japan make up liability i think will as twenty four billion dollars but damage is stemming from its crippled nuclear plant how about driving crude oil futures away to interpose top trading funds with mitsubishi and the soon sound one and two point five says respectively. and he last heard the markets will start trading in about two hours' time but the r.t.s. on the my six dropped nearly two point five percent on cheese day made negative news from abroad and in the world prices. and looking ahead to the day's trade in rush hour log from the to the capital believes the call for taking we've seen in

recent trade will continue. we haven't seen any good volume still in the small cap stocks which kind of people that actually people are actually trading liquid stocks right now and i've seen russia in full volume today will see a consolidation because there are no factors russia specific that can urge the market to fall in a straight line but generally speaking in the few weeks i think the strategy is to actually take some profits in russia i think so in may and go away with the usual market ways trading strategy might again work as here given the performance yesterday. that's assays business update john it's one more next hour and of course you can always log on to our web site that's article called slash because. an. cooper.
