i started to scream for help i was bleeding heavily a man and woman can't be outside in the fresh air they target my mag and didn't leave me until the ambulance arrived that's man and woman might be unaware they saved not only irina but the life of your unborn child as well looking little xiv with on the day i was going to the city center to buy vitamins it's terrible but i believe i got over not really there were people without eyes with missing legs and hands i'm six months pregnant my thoughts were about the baby. and i instinctively know huddled to protect her baby she was lucky people sported here in the thick smoke and didn't trample here in the panic which others vividly recall. abuse either the train was full of panicked and then there was this bang and all of a sudden fire soon collapsed lots of people were lying on the platform older stepped over something and then i saw this was

a girl's body. elian i was the closest to the epicenter of the blast she was the only to survive in her carriage again despite the panic others gave her a helping hand to escape the carnage from the city's busiest metro station this is where the two eyes of the music subway intercept and this explains why there was so many commuters during this evening rush hour on monday i witnessed a save that those other warders were carried out onto the street from these actions and many of those waters still remain in critical condition in hospitals across the city at the news of the tackler to phone systems being flooded with people desperate to contact their loved ones for some delays in getting through or the longest moments of their lives. as for the two she called me to say there was a terrorist attack and then the line bro. camp when we came to the scene and saw her we were shocked her jacket was all torn it can't because if you'd been hit by

a shotgun pellets over her face hands and clothes were coming in blood and she was trying to ease or shine from the ground you don't cry this is not my blood it's here the blood of others caught up in the city as the first funerals take place in minsk and elsewhere people have been flocking to the site of the tragedy to remember solemnly and to pray biblical messages laid around the subway station are in different languages but for some even words are just too painful for those notes that has anything changed for you since monday. lost lives it hurts her terribly people need to understand and value every moment of their lives and remember those who died. i'm sorry but i can't talk. the explosion in minsk on the ground is the most tragic terrorist act which bell was

has seen scenes beyond of the second world war completely campaign kabul and still be evening of april eleventh terrorism is now agreeing more than day reality for these country as these day of mourning the just hopes of course are watching in the country from around the world except in a virtual r t means below us. all the better rusa special services say they hope to make rapid progress in the investigation into the bombing terrorism expert from greece says it's still a mystery who last summer the attack and what the motivation was. but at first glance 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 at bellerive who would be high you know but in terms of preventing it no doubt things will change and i think already there been announcements of security measures that will be in place and public spaces know about the type of things we see in america

and europe and indeed russia will now be in place and better roots of terrorism expert phil reese talking to us from london. but with the similarities between the moscow and metro bombings russia is a better position than most to give but in recent dealing with the aftermath of terror attacks. on the presidential representative on combating terrorism spoke about the need to share experience gained through such tragedies. we've all paid such a high price for this experience that it's simply criminal immoral not to share with other people we should share our experience with pain we should share any experience both in our mistakes in areas where we've been successful and we have been successful i can give you examples and others use our experience in this sense there is no other way right there can be no individual experience will be totally incompatible with the general experience each country puts its own national

experience in a common basket of cooperation in after some separation it turns into a universal product later each individual country can use it for its own account to consider a certain peculiarities. i think you can watch that full interview in just over time herriot saying. that it says the situation in libya is out of control they mean colonel gadhafi and the rebels as well as they tell forces offend to stop the country tearing itself apart the russian presence of spoke to the media ahead of a major trade to china for a meeting of the wells and i think on its surface as it entails. present it but it was speaking to a chinese head of the. today where he'll be meeting with his counterpart. the other members of the great story china of course brazil india and south africa be discussing amongst other things how best to respond to the old situation in

libya ever main story with the civil conflict and the president warning other the situation really is a real risk of collapsing at the supports and you can put under gadhafi does not control the situation because the country's convulsed by civil war and many of his actions may be qualified as crimes nato does not control the situation either because it does not have a mandate to carry out large scale operations for all of us reasons and the no fly zone operation has acquired very unusual features goes in fact it turns out to be the use of force and with no result has been detained and as far as i understand 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 and should understand that the viability of the libyan state itself is now at state sequestered the fate

of making it clear that it was a duffy is that certainly to blame for the whole thing on thing they say he has his heart say that right from the beginning of the speech as that's really cool shit when it comes to foreign polls but. africa over us are really highlighting that size and the point that i want to come say situations it's easy for us that it's go with internally i'm the focus really from the very beginning being on the pitch in the dialogue with that ongoing situation because of the data very often. about whether he intends to stay for another time the elections are less than a year away he having clarified. yes whether or not he will be running you knew there was no i don't rule out the possibility of my running for a second time at the presidential elections a decision will be taken very shortly since the elections are less than a year away from this decision however should be fun to mature and second it should

take into account the existing social situation in congo political environment of that and most importantly the attitude of people before making any such decisions one has to weigh their chances avoid acting mechanically and instead with a clear understanding of the situation now the president did give the personal insight. to the journalist but they all stand with the roles that being the pres the house is a heavy burden the president was talking about the way he saw the film but that he liked spending time with his friends and family and of course a jealous person his relationship with five minutes he said present the data talking openly about that saying that he's not a friend it's all it's hard it's like two decades. they've built a certainly a warm relationship with a whole different position and different roles and obviously working in russia is but then. he says the decision he mentioned will be going to be taken shortly all

whether or not he will be running in that this election. and you can watch our president get a full interview on our web site at r.t. dot com well still ahead for you this hour fighting for survival crews are part of nuclear plant as you know work after another strong quake system. and testing times fifty years after the garlands groundbreaking flight to the stars you look back on the rigorous training to put belly cosmonauts through the paces. the u.s. is planning to spend around seven hundred billion dollars on the military alone the see it may consider decided on thirty eight billion dollars of spending cuts but none are coming out of the country's defense budget and 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 are going to come out worldwide military spending increased by twenty point six billion dollars in two thousand and ten and one thousand point six billion of that was the us alone according to the stockholm international peace research institute the us 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 us 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 boycott as prioritization of military and military conceptions of security even in the face of such difficult economic times and american earning the federal minimum wage and working forty hours a week fifty two weeks a year can expect to earn a little over fifteen thousand dollars this year well below the poverty line you can also expect to pay more than five hundred dollars directly to the pentagon an american earning fifty thousand dollars a year will see their income. over two thousand and go directly to america's wars they thought that if you want controlling the oil fields and all of the profits back wild you'll go big just get real big traps those tax dollars also go to maintaining over one thousand u.s. bases inside the world by as well as the pentagon's two hundred thirty four golf

courses that. it needs children poor women and homeless you know to take care of the needs of our population to spend enormous amounts of money on the pentagon budget while we are every program is being is just fraudulent and obscene try to put it on the ground bring it out. that the four cents of every dollar americans pay in taxes goes to funding past and future war and for all the. but meanwhile the u.k. is giving one hundred million pounds of emergency funds to its military forces to support the libyan campaign despite the cuts agreed in temple's defense spending review comes at a time when britain is dramatically slashing social spending actually contributor because we know there's a view that says debating defense cuts will soon be felt and square. well britain's involvement in a new conflict it's impossible to state and the level of defense cuts decided upon

last year when still defense needs extra funding but the government has two major obstacles in providing it the first one is how to ensure that these extra money will no seem like rethinking of the last year's defense review the government remains adamant that this is not going to happen the excuse been made is that it was impossible to predict the conflict in libya but isn't the defense review supposed to plan to have the last review what's finalized in nineteen ninety seven so well lookin into predicting the next ten to fifteen years and yet just a few months after the current defense review was finalized it's no longer valid the other obstacle is to ensure that our governments do not feel left out to avoid this the minister of defense and the treasury made a deal that actually does not include more funding for them instead what it does is

it can go through the bills and receipts it was supposed to cots and it lets treasury's special visa face some of these expenses in my view the good thing about it is the treasury seems to be flexible it seems to be we need to rethink if are necessary but the bad thing is that they're delaying the cuts will only bring the disaster quicker. engineers that japan's struggling from the syrian nuclear plant have resumed efforts to remove brutal radioactive water comes off the powerful aftershocks last cruise to flee the area launches danger perner raise the nuclear that of other pursuits of rex a veteran of seven suppose the crisis on a par with the chernobyl disaster decision was based on fearing of the leak from a damaged previously thought but officials say the upgrade is more in the situation has become more critical even while the terms to restore cooling systems that we

are to be closer to success nuclear engineer all of these incidents government has downplayed the extent of the disaster. and he's a really committed to nuclear and so there was a lot of a lot of vested interests that wanted to downplay it and i study the three mile island accident and i study chernobyl and now this one 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 believe whatever instruments gave them that indication in they don't have power to the fuel pool cooling systems that any of the reactors in uniform are is the worst because that fuel pool has the freshest fuel it's that the most physically hot and on in addition uniforms get a crack in the side of it so they can even if they have water to cool it it's going

to run out the crack that's the toughest the toughest problem on site right now. you can follow all the latest developments on the parents at nuclear crisis on our web site that's awesome dot com including a man who braved food she was evacuations or at least journalist went within one and a half condolences on the stricken this and saying it's documented the dangerous levels of radiation there but that what he saw also on. the social networking web site saved the russian an author eight years of slavery and a fourth tell the public that he's done a lot more. let's have a brief look now at some world news making headlines this hour. underwater has been given to detain that imposed leader hosni mubarak as well as his two sons. becomes a head of an investigation into these allegations or who is currently in intensive care after reportedly suffering

a heart attack the former leader has been under house arrest since he was a threat in the uprising. you know every coast french and u.n. troops have seized an admission from forces in the world of former president only but what is curtains and rockets were found in a commercial inciting violence comes out he surrendered to french forces who are supposed to be internationally recognized for their last november's elections there is no way to a criminal investigation to his actions and those of his entourage and the resulting conflicts between the two opponents and claimed nearly a thousand dollars. nato has come under fire for his campaign in libya from friendly forces french and british prime ministers of criticize the security organization for not doing more to destroy it in gadhafi zones not ukase at william hague urged greater lies to intensify partner operations one of the alliances

generals hit back saying they were doing a great job the conflict appears to be heading for staminate eleven. continued to be held back despite the air support. the tail section of the doomed air france jet that crashed off brazil's coast in two thousand and nine and found relatives of various killed say there and told it's relatively intact raising hopes that boxes will melt and covered help us to get its body is together what led to the papal crash two hundred twenty eight people aboard. when you are in the road into space he took his place in history but one man's monumental achievement was the result of that they had their work of hundreds of others in top secrecy a team of dedicated volunteers to human insurance to its very limits and sometimes you can pay the ultimate price with their lives in pursuit of the ultimate goal to

propel mankind to the styles. of the story. he went through hell on earth to go with the first man in space john and i usually poor russian was a volunteer who just of equipment needed to reach orbit and it to came to the limits of human insurance but really 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 for my paws later i was forbidden to even mention it back then everything was a secret in nine hundred fifty nine when the original became a test well until no one knew just how humans would be fed by zero gravity extreme stress or even the sense of endlessness space was the great unknown and to many questions needed answering. more of any emergency that could happen to a cosmonaut during a flight and in reality they really experience all this i had to enjoy once during

a test to find a safe angle for an emergency landing seat i was thrown from a forty need to height just like that freefall another time i spent thirteen hours in ice cold water to test a space suit when the state commission came to check on me in the morning someone said surprised look he's alive. the experiments using humans were top secret in the soviet union and it wasn't fame the volunteers were out there. we were brought up that way we weren't afraid of extreme situations there's simply no fear as the space program developed this became more sophisticated the imitation of weightlessness for a national was invented and soon preceded many trials one of the most unpleasant is being stuck in this gap so after the martian. thing that has by the waves of the open school. and actual cross worlds

and a maximum of three. in this position as part of their training while the test engineers have to last for days in forty degree heat or cold i. think they're in the last of the longest of all three days while his c.c. companions gave up one after another. not everyone survived those tests we never thought of ourselves as heroes we bled and hurt but told noble we needed to prove humans can do it and after all those years and over three hundred experiments i came to the conclusion my import was maybe even more important for space science than if i went into space once or twice. nowadays the course when all survival course is based on their work except potential cost ronald are not punished to the limit and they do have a chance after traveling to space one day i'll just give you many of the test

engineers wanted to become cosmonauts but that's exactly the tragedy and they simply secor fire stem cells their names may be lost in history but in many ways it was them the unknown here is the made the dream of space reality gary bush go up r.t. story say they just north of moscow this great pious. next intercept remembers her not to be starting. hello and welcome to business all to you thanks for joining us booming closer to price of done much to support. also all vessels and source close to it such as
