join me for the details in a few moments. funding the wars and the expense of education many americans are often all dismal social costs are now small the pentagon refuses to budget for the gigantic defense budget . little. can see this is live from moscow now the fatal terror attack since been sold less than forty eight hours all but according to president bush and co two suspects detained in connection with the monday metro bombing confessed to the explosion however the reasons a motive behind the attack remain all clear the blast killed twelve and left almost two hundred injured. the bomb went off as crowds were coming out of trains during

the evening rush hour and the capital's main subway help. bring the groucho of a met some of the victims recovering and. the shoes from when. i started to scream help i was bleeding heavily i'm an injured woman can't be outside into the fresh air i told my nag and didn't leave me until the ambulance arrived that's mine and one might be unaware they saved not only for the life of pure unborn child as well who came here who to leave but on the day i was going to the city center to buy vitamins and terrible it was not really if i got over not really there were people without armies with missing mags and hands and six months pregnant. it's more about the baby i'm with you and my instinctive we know huddled to protect her b.c. she was lucky people spotted here in the thick smoke and didn't trample your in the panic which others vividly recall. the train was full of parents

and then there was this bang and all of a sudden fire ceiling collapsed lots of people one on the platform. i stepped over something and then i saw you this was a girl's body. you know was the closest to the epicenter of the last she was 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 allies of the new york subway intersect and this explains why there was so many commuters during this evening rush hour on monday all witnesses say that those hollywood jets were carried out onto the street from this ad shows many of those who want to still remain in critical condition in hospitals across the seas here news of the tug luck to those systems being lauded as people desperate to consider. luckett wants some delays in getting through the longest moments of the

lots. o. me to say there was a terrorist attack and then the line broke up when we came to the scene and saw her we were shocked the jacket was all torn to cancer as if you'd been hit by shotgun pellets over these two hands and you've covered in blood for she was trying to ease our shots and granny don't cry it's not my blood to cheer the blood that 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 or in different languages but for some even words are just too painful as well as well as the police 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. the explosion in minsk on the ground is the most tragic terrorist act which bell was has seen seems beyond of the second world war completely unthinkable until the evening of april eleventh terrorism is now a grim war the day reality for these country as these day of mourning just supports our lodging in the country from around the world exceeding the pressure of all our t.v. . bellows. largest emerging economies around szell and it's a series of economic and political talks russia brazil india china and south africa all three near as the brics and nations are striving for a biggest say in the global financial architecture that was so set to go beyond economics to respond to pressing international issues with. reports. well peace

five countries really want to do was to work on together to push for a new international financial model that would benefit developing countries not just a few quick numbers to show you how why this region this grouping of countries is becoming really an important part of the the world is the world's dynamics first of all they do i have to pass in clue two of the most populated countries of the world of course china and india and in terms of trade and their volume has reached two hundred thirty billion in two thousand and ten that's about fifteen percent of world trade eighty percent of the world's g.d.p. now these numbers may not be at their peak at the moment they do admit that there's still a lot of room for improvement in this regard but the number the population in itself and the potential that they hold is clearly not to be ignored by the by the world in this case the actual summit will start to morrow but there have been meetings between the russian the president and the leaders of various countries today he's been meeting with the indian prime minister the south african president as well as

chinese president hu jintao well as this is an economic forum the cannot ignore the what's happening in the world so he can't just stick to economic problems another issue of course is the issue of libya now we know that the four countries out of five brazil russia india and china did abstain from voting on resolution one hundred seventy three which allowed the the air strikes on libya but south africa did vote in favor of that however still the consensus here is that they are not happy with what nato is doing in libya now well we did hear from the chinese side that it may be it may be raised that there are going to show a strong front against this move by the west well the countries here do agree that cooperation is needed not just in terms of the economic solutions they are to climb but also the political arena especially before they go to the g. twenty that will happen in november in france now that definitely is

a. and the global politics as i now mix of the world moving away from the western countries to those countries in the regions that make up the brics while the old world order may be pumping money down the drain on warring in libya the new world order is fighting battles that can be won on the world's money and trade markets brazil russia india china and this year's new kid on the block south africa have gathered on the chinese island to talk business and it's not just about economy it's about politics as well though the brits countries do put a heavy emphasis on economic issues broader political questions such as the situation in northern africa and the middle east are also going to be hot topics for discussions. all. or un resolutions was very wise in terms of we're not going to get involved in this mess in fact when the french and the british were drafting the resolution there were serious objections

from the for talks with countries brazil russia and china traditionally it was always the u.s. and major of western nations like france and germany playing the leading roles in politics and economy but if you take into consideration the ongoing financial crisis and the fact that breaks countries comprise more than half of the world's population and pull in almost a quarter of the world's g.d.p. it becomes obvious that a certain geopolitical shift in power is in progress or that there are several reasons these are the emerging powers of the twenty first century euro as we all know he's absolutely dead economically politically has no it's lourdes they cannot even organize foreign policy it's a fearful continent these are car countries that are have been less affected by the crisis than have the european countries the united states and these are countries that are going to continue to grow if not rapidly at least moderately. while the

rest of europe and united states seems to be mired and in crisis european leaders themselves admit to losing stable ground in recent years everything that we have taken for branch of for two centuries american and european dominance to the point at which most of the world's manufacturing goods most of the world's exports most of the world's investment was done in these countries it is no longer attacked so it seems europe and the us are finally beginning to understand the emerging power of the brics nations i think the western countries have already acknowledged the strength of the brics economies by expanding what was the g eight now it's twenty and it is within the really the greeks countries have been. enjoying their strategy which has been very effective i certainly think that there

will be changes in the economic architects and i think that's inevitable as these countries grow while the western powerhouses continue pounding away on regimes they find undesirable a new economic and political architecture is emerging and these by countries are keen to prove they're not just another bricks in the wall it goes court t.v. sonia china well the russian president spoke to the chinese media and of his trip to the bric summit and you can find out his visa on the ongoing crisis in libya still need presidential time and all web site r.t. dot com where you can watch that it's full interview it's a good look and now what else is on the line champneys journalists well within one and a half kilometers of the strip the fantasy to document the dangerous levels of radiation that will find out what's in store.

ok let's have a brief look now at some of the world news making headlines this hour the suicide bomber has killed at least ten people in an attack on tribal elders in eastern afghanistan a close ally of president karzai was killed in the last approach the elders after a meeting before detonating the explosives strapped to his body the taliban denied responsibility for would be attacked claiming that the victims have their own enemy . the deposed egyptian leader hosni mubarak and his two sons have been placed under detention for fifteen days the move is part of a police investigation into corruption and abuse allegations is currently in intensive care after reportedly suffering a heart attack a formal leader has been under house arrest since he was overthrown in a popular uprising in february. when i was in

repose french and u.n. troops is seen as the only initiative from forces loyal to former president. it comes after he surrendered to french forces he supported alice palmer internationally recognized winner of last of a collection. is now awaiting a criminal investigation into his actions and those of his entourage the resulting conflict between the two opponents has claimed nearly a thousand lives. the tail section of an air france jet that crashed off brazil's case in two thousand and nine a husband found the missing evidence is relatively intact raising hopes the black boxes will now be recovered retrieve my data could help investigators find together what caused the people crash all two hundred and twenty eight people onboard that plane. coming up fifty years after

a unique gardens at first light days he made it possible speak out that should be a chance. to spend hours in high school districts when the state commission is going to need someone who said we're surprised with the law you. find out what all her trials and sacrifices sauntered volunteers and cheered to make sure the flights in space are returned in one place it's. the us defense department's funding of last year's level bringing its annual budget to around seven hundred billion dollars and that's despite washington making sweeping cuts in domestic spending to reduce the country's deficit for investigates why american lawmakers are steadfastly committed to boosting the military at a time of economic uncertainty.

plenty is on the u.s. chopping block this week health care education infrastructure was ok was almost. everything that is except for the pentagon my greatest fear is that in economic tough times the people will see the defense budget as a 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 in are going to come out one for school why 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 informs us very much sees itself as a global military power it's the only global treaty. so it perceives it security interests as encompassing the whole world in two thousand

and ten the us spent more on its military in the next highest countries combined both presidents bush and obama have ramped up the wars defense spending in the us has increased eighty one percent since two thousand and one this seems to reflect a bipartisan prioritization of military power and military conceptions of security even in the face of such difficulty 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 will see their income. over two thousand of it go directly to america's wars . controlling the oil fields and. just. those tax dollars also go to maintaining over one thousand u.s.

bases inside always ruled by as well as the pentagon's two hundred thirty four golf courses that the. children who are wimmin homeless you know take care of the needs of our population to spend enormous amounts of money on the pentagon budget or every program is being is just fraudulent in obscene try to put it on the ground grind it out unplug. it four cents of every dollar americans pay in taxes goes to funding past and future wars 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 in florida artsy washington d.c. engineers of japan's fukushima plant continue on and team highly radioactive water from one of the nuclear reactors they choose to show you the radiation levels in

the sea near the damage facility how spines. raise the level of. the plant to about seven prisoners all appalled by the chernobyl results the recovery efforts came under threat is the reason powerful aftershocks hit the area near the palace station it came a month to the massive earthquake and tsunami devastated the country leaving a. people dead monitoring stations and. small amounts of radioactive particles spreading from fukushima independent nuclear energy consultants and he says that the japanese government is about to. prevent people from exposure being exposed to radiation. they have played with the lives of the people of new prefecture acknowledging weeks ago but the levels being released were equivalent. to a level seven accident greenpeace released information three weeks ago saying that

it was a level seven accident based upon french nuclear safety agency assessments so that no on the risks and unfortunately many more thousands of people ability supposed to relation levels that we should not have suffered and the key satirical one of the consequence of the very large fire due to the earth graphite fuel burning at very high temperatures was the real activity was spread over many thousands of square kilometers the situation who she molded had explosions would not seem like times fires but the problem is that has led to the releases concentrating in a much smaller area and when you have japan with radioactivity you have a real problem there will be areas around the plant twenty thirty kilometers maybe more that will be an exclusion zone perhaps. in areas outside explorations we would be curious of high concentration it's not a thing you can see just by going fifty kilometers you'll have glass you'll have hot spots. the areas around fukushima in fukushima prefecture are certainly going

to cool cause a hazard to health for many many decades now they tested human interference further than it had ever gone up before and some even paid the ultimate price that it was all about achieving their goal comparing mankind to the stars solve it all in tears went through unbearable and sometimes fatal tests on air to gauge what humans might experience in space thousands that one test subjects who lived to tell the tale. he went through hell on earth to put the first man in space john and i usually work for russia was a volunteer who just of the equipment needed to reach over it and it took him to the limits of human insurance but really no one in the world has ever experienced what i did nineteen geom centrifuge that made my way into greece nineteen blood was using through my pores or later i was forbidden to make mention of me back then

everything was a secret in one nine hundred fifty nine when the original became a test on t.v. 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 the many questions needed answering. with any emergency that could happen to a cosmonaut during a flight and in reality they are really experience all this i have to enjoy and one string attached to find a safe angle for an emergency landing seat oh i was thrown from a fourteen me tonight just like that for a little another time i spent thirteen hours in ice cold water just a spacer thurber when the state commission came to check on me in the movie and someone said i was surprised look he's alive. experiments using humans what top secret in the soviet union and it wasn't the volunteers were often. brought up that way we weren't afraid of extreme situations and there's simply no fear as

the space program developed this became more sophisticated the imitation of weightlessness for immersion was invented and soon preceded many trials one of the most unpleasant press is being stuck in this capsule after the national. being that has by the waves of the open sea. i met expense a maximum of three hours in this position as part of their training while the test engineers have the last four days in forty degree heat or cold. the last of the oldest of the three days one of his c.c. companions eight not true either but the body of work they put in the not everyone survived those tests we never thought of as heroes. of the world and

that's why we needed to prove look you had to go do it on and off there in the years and over three hundred experiments i came to the conclusion million people was maybe even more important for space science than if i wasn't to spare yourself once or twice just. nowadays the cost not survival cost is based on their work except potential costs are not wish to the limit and they do have a chance of traveling to space one day i was just too many of the just engineers wanted to become a that's exactly their tragedy and they simply sacrificed themselves their work their names may be lost in history but in many ways it was them the unknown here is the dream of space and reality gary r.t. story city just north of scotland. and head out the way the news is our way off the us also has the business desk now as we have the latest for us we're hearing the russian helicopters since pounding his initial public offering when it became. a
