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 intersect and this explains why there was so many commuters cheering this evening rush hour on monday eyewitnesses say that those hardly warders were carried out onto the street from these answers and many of those borders still remain in critical condition in hospitals across the city and the news of the tackler to phone systems being flooded with people desperate to contact their loved ones for some delays and getting through all the longest moments of their lives one is for you one of us with one who knocks you should call me to say there was a terrorist attack and then the line broke up when we came to the scene and saw her . shocked her jacket was all torn apart as if she'd been hit by shotgun pellets almost face hands and clothes were covered in blood but she was trying to ease or

evening of april eleventh terrorism is now agree more than a reality of these countries as well on these day of mourning matzoh just hopes a pause of logic in the country from around the world to the actual r t means bellows. the way americans washington's decision to slash thirty eight billion dollars in spending but what really got them out is how the public sector is being neglected all the u.s. military machine war funding for it it's. now the world's largest emerging economies were china to take part in a series of economic and political talks russia brazil india china and south africa also as the rexx nations are striving for a bigger say in the global financial architecture but also set to go beyond economics to respond to pressing international issues and south korea reports. what these five countries really want to do is to work come together to push for
10:07 am
a new international financial model that will benefit developing countries not just a few quick numbers to show you how why this is a region this grouping of countries is becoming really an important part of the world is the world's dynamics first of all they do i could pass include two of the most populated countries in 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 the 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 every 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 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 is well as this is an economic forum they'd be they
10:08 am
cannot ignore the what's happening in the world so they can't just stick to economic problems another issue of course is the issue in libya now we know that the four countries out of five brazil russia india china did have stayed for voting on resolution one hundred seventy three which allowed 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. now are we did hear from the chinese side that maybe it may be raised they're going to show a stronger front against this move by the west where the countries here do agree that cooperation is needed not just in terms of the economic solutions they are to fly 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 show. if there's a global politics the dynamics of the world moving away from the western countries
10:09 am
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 of hainan to talk business and it's not just about economy it's about politics as well though the brics 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 the british council as they're all saying or un resolution 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 four countries. traditionally it was always the us and major western
10:10 am
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 brics countries comprise more than half of the world's population and poland 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 demerger twenty first century europe as we all know all this absolutely dead economically politically has low stakes you know if you're going to. fall asleep it's a fearful continent and these are car countries there are have been less affected by the crisis and have the european countries the united states and these are countries that are going to continue to grow if not rapidly a least moderately. while the rest of europe and the united states seems to be
10:11 am
mired in crisis european leaders themselves admit to losing stable ground in recent years everything that we have taken for granted 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 is no longer a fact so it seems europe and the us are finally beginning to understand the emerging power of the brics nations i think the way some countries have already. been strengthened greeks economy is. expanding what was in the g eight to it now or g twenty and it is within the g twenty really the brics countries have been. enjoying the strategy which has been very effective i certainly think that there would be changes in the economic architecture a thing that's inevitable as these countries grow while the western powerhouses
10:12 am
continue pounding away on regimes they find undesirable a new economic and political architecture is emerging and these five countries are keen to prove they're not just another bricks and the wall it goes corti sonia china. the russian president spoke to the chinese media head of his summit the breaks. or you can find out his view on the ongoing crisis in libya and his thoughts on a new presidential term on our web site r.t. dot com you can watch read as full interview that take a quick look now at what else is online but a japanese tourist spent his maybe infamous partnership with nuclear power plants for a close encounter with extreme levels of radiation and all the details of past experience on r.t. dot com. well
10:13 am
the u.s. defense department's funding has somewhat above that last year's level bringing its annual budgets to around seven hundred billion dollars and that's despite washington making sweeping cuts in domestic spending to reduce the country's deficit asking for divestiture why american lawmakers are steadfastly committed to peace in the military at a time of economic uncertainty. 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 a place to store the nation's deficit problems i would be very reluctant to cut
10:14 am
defense spending until we see really how these two conflicts were and are going to come out like this 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 u.s. alone according to the stockholm international peace research institute us very much sees itself as a global military power it's the only global military. power. so it perceives it security interests as encompassing the whole world in two thousand and ten the u.s. spent more on its military and 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 seems to reflect a boy. prioritization of military and military conceptions of security
10:15 am
even in the face of such difficult economic times an 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 that's here well below the poverty line you 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 ever go directly to america's war they thought that if they weren't controlling the oil fields and all of the profits back when. nope it just. those tax dollars also go to maintaining over one thousand u.s. bases and sites world why as well as the pentagon's two hundred thirty four golf courses. i mean 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
10:16 am
fraudulent in obscene try to put it on the ground. that the percent of every dollar americans pay in taxes goes to finding 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 when ford r. t. washington d.c. . well and they say that international. to decide how to proceed with its military intervention in libya from the u.k. wants to help the assault on colonel down are they considering arming the rebels more an old one from geneva. rector of the translated peace university many being with us here on r.c.l. the may say led coalition has before the two holes the desk writes in libya so far for the civil war there really does seem to remain a deadlock so what do you think because initial nights plans do next is there
10:17 am
a chance of a ground invasion. it's a very heavy chance of a ground invasion and i think you have to see it in a sort of grand perspective this is an alternative. western imperialism colonialism in a last stage making this but it efforts to regain something of what they lost and france was the biggest colonial country and of course england all the same size the two together dominated africa they think they have found an opening in libya that they can use at the same time as the u.s. is practically speaking bankrupt in forty one percent though it is a dollar to spend federally goes to servicing that at the same time i think that when france and nato really entered some years ago they put some very strong conditions for the entry and i belong to those who at the time thought are this is not of course this plan he wants to dominate nato and maybe obama in
10:18 am
a sense is willing to give some of that to him in order to get out because obama is now fighting six muslim countries that the same time. no oak or stay want a ground war because they know perfectly well that they are not trapped by their own propaganda this is not the human action this is regime change and they are linked to the people in say this is a mix than just sort of it cleans the old king this is clan so we have planned warfare going on at the same time there is the flag that they use because very soon in all of them and i think a very important. i have very strong opinions articles coalition itself to stress the humanitarian reasons for which they're going and. i think it's now business on forcing the taffy out say why did they just go in and capture him do you think.
10:19 am
well they of course would like him to leave voluntarily and i think that afraid of making a buffy a martyr which we have almost to go back to the first years where a couple of people say hero who kicked out the american the enormous american air base who blew life into at a bleak that was thwarted later on and he has lately been working for african union and now all of this is not to the liking of the western powers so they want to get in they want to strengthen the little people in benghazi to. go further east east east alternately you make an end or hopefully get him out of the country and asylum but he's a military man and he has to my mind filled with bedouin logic and bedouin ethics which means not to decide not to capitulate means to die as an artist is much preferable but part about it and that would not be
10:20 am
a solution for the rest that's all i can carry so wrong. analysis of the situation that but let's talk about the opposition or there seems to guarantee that they won't pull the country apart if gadhafi leaves. if gaddafi leaves leading over it is that he has this strong support and one should not only look at the road that goes along the mediterranean look at the map you will see deep deep deep into africa for people to get blacker than bacteria and very loyal to. them some kind of dignity that didn't have before would have competed in libya that he had brought into being believed to be for sixty nine so that work and go on for the long time even if it of. not including us becomes a victim of blowing up the importance of leaders forgetting that there is
10:21 am
a people behind. perry mason how is this is raising our nato has been divided over the intervention in libya hasn't germany refuses to play a role or france actually adds initial calls on military actions or how deep splits within the alliance and what do you think the implications of that could be it was quite clear when this was for the security council the argument for not voting in favor of solutions was that it was even it did not do to back away in yemen what they wanted to do to libya that was the argument by the bric countries not to forget them and very very important to supposed to operate by consensus which is also against nato absoluteness what they're doing. and the us president is supposed to consult a commitment to consult according to the constitution even the beginning though
10:22 am
because the tradition to the congress has also been neglected that clearly they know that in a bit weak position they were hoping that a quick action they could look tame but they won't ok their own opinions live from of the swiss capital thank you handle thing for your views on the situation in libya many thanks. ok with a freshly manageress further than i have ever gone with some even pay the ultimate price it was all about achieving a goal of propelling mankind to the stars well before you began as first flight solve it volunteers went through an unbearable test to gauge what humans might experience in space artie's dahlia over about one test subject who lived to tell the tale. he went through hell on earth to put the first man in space john an unusual name for a russian was a volunteer contested the equipment needed to reach orbit any two came to the
10:23 am
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 weight increase nineteen fold blood was using through my paws later i was forbidden to even mention it back burner everything was a secret in one nine hundred fifty nine when we didn't know became a test volunteer no one knew just how humans would be affected by zero gravity extreme stress or even the sense of endlessness space was the great unknown and many questions needed answering. more than 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 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
10:24 am
surprised look he's alive. experiments using humans one top secret in the soviet union and it wasn't thing 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. i think a more sophisticated the imitation of weak looseness or immersion was invented and soon preceded many trials one of the most unpleasant tests is being stuck in this cab so after the inertia. of being battered by the waves of the open sea. and actual cost no expense a maximum of three hours in this position as part of their training while the test engineer has had the last three or four days in forty degree heat or cold.
10:25 am
big bear in the last the longest of all three days while his seasick companions one after another. not everyone survived those tests and we never thought of ourselves as heroes we bled and hurt but told no one 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 made even more important for space size than if i went into space once or twice. nowadays the cost will survival course is based on their work except potential cost on odds are not pushed to the limit and they do have a chance after they displace one day. many of the just engineers wanted to become astronauts but that's exactly their tragedy and they simply sacrificed 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 very arty storage city just north of moscow
