maiden's. medicine pundits say for. the world's emerging super powers have pledged their commitment to a new global economy and call on the nato led coalition to abide by the un resolution on libya. president dmitri medvedev says the new ram has some explaining to do about how its resolution song libya and ivory coast are being implemented i'm sorry so given all the latest from the bric summit in china interesting few moments. the u.s. is accused of manipulating a regime change in the arab world through cyber warfare all under the guise of democratic revolution. and the parents or the russian children of the red genetic

illness plead for government help which they say is being denied because of the cost. of very warm welcome here this is r.t. right from moscow now a shake up of the global monetary system is what the world's fastest growing economies of course for that annual meeting brazil russia india china and south africa the so-called brics nations also slammed nato operation in a conflict. that's now cross live to the chinese resort all the sun where syria is a monitoring the summit of. some hard hitting statements coming out of the summit regarding monetary reform of the i.m.f. and a possible move to drop the dollar as the global reserve currency what more can can

you. oh indeed there is a lot of those changes that they want to see but in essence what they really want is greater influence first of all economically they really want to see change in the international financial model existing right now that will benefit the developing countries more as you rightly mentioned currency the global reserve currency is one of the issues they would like to see alternative because the u.s. economy is certainly hurting verizon is this well now china of course is pushing forward the you want to before that could happen there are a lot of internal rest if they have to resolve brazil for example is an open critic of what they've undervalued you want another issue that they are really worried about is the fluctuation of commodity prices now this is very important for them because the prices of basic food the price of raw materials oil are all stable price and all of those are necessary to make sure that their economies have sustainable growth now they feel that from their point of view they feel that

western economies the weak economies there are the calls of all these fluctuations and therefore they think they should have a greater say in international financial institutions such as the i.m.f. and the world back them coming together like this coming together with a unified voice they really are quick to insist that it's not so much to replace existing organizations but rather to come together to have a stronger voice representing these developed countries and to bring what their ideas onto the international stage president of brazil rousseff had stated in the maps were quite eloquently let's listen to what she had say. we're engaged enough to create. new supremacy over the areas of. against any group of countries in fact. corporation and governance mechanisms in line with century. couple of key words there they want a multi polar world and they also want more cooperation so basically that is their

protests and when you talk about stuff the issues are other than the economics of just being discussed there were some strong words that were levied at nato about its ongoing mission in libya. yes certainly the crisis in libya has been on the table it has been a priority if they have russian president medvedev certainly putting out strong words there that he say he feels that there is a dangerous tendency with the u.s. going beyond what their resolution has fans able to listen to what he has to say obviously. that is and also the u.n. resolution must be fulfilled whether russia voted for it and south africa did or abstain but they must be fulfilled in accordance with the wording and meaning not with free interpretations of some states because we voted for a no fly zone just stop the escalation of the conflict so that we can separate the two sides but what we're having now is

a military operation it may not be on the ground yet but it's certainly going on up above a number of countries who are taking part and then nato stepped in to the resolution doesn't say it would appear that's why when i hear the resolution is bad i disagree the resolution is absolutely fine but it must be fulfilled without exceeding the mandate it's based on it was. interesting enough this is an economic forum but the situation of libya did make it into the a declaration which had sides of a they really insist on a more political say now coincidentally all five countries are members of the u.s. security council for india brazil definitely pushing for permanent seats again evidence that they want to have more cooperation and coordination on the political arena as well. reporting live thank you. nato forces have bombed the heart of the libyan capital with reports of one of the strikes hitting the residence of colonel gadhafi meanwhile in nato officials have

announced plans to continue their operation until libyan forces stop civilians i would treat a meeting in berlin and members of the lions discussed what contribution each state statement needs to make and the only six out of the twenty eight involved conducting airstrikes the u.k. and france have been calling on other countries to increase military pressure on a kind of market after their strikes began last month following the un's decision to allow an enforcement no fly zone in order to protect civilians but many analysts believe the ultimate goal of the operation is control over libyan politics and oil we can't rule out boots on the ground at this point the problem is if the western nations are trying to mask shilled military incursion so they look more benevolent any more humanitarian germany has one position in germany was to bring in the european union belgium doesn't want to arm libyan for libyan rebels italy

and france very you know you do want to arm states already had cia there is the vision among the western forces however the main target is to co-opt a truly democratic ground up revolution into a foreseeable government that would serve the interests of patrol using business marketing western nations and nothing has changed. now as the quest for reforms continues in the arab world the u.s. is increasing its influence over government activists in the region america is conducting a cyber war and if it to direct the spread of the pro-democracy movement but it's also used a gun each to come reports u.s. intentions could easily backfire. the u.s. is providing high tech help with the innovations for anti-government activists in a number of countries throughout the world one of the latest developments is the

panic button according to the state department the application can be uploaded on activists cell phones should they be detained the software instantly raises the contact book in their phones and sends a warning alert signal to other activists sounds great one push of a button and it's all gone probably mungo's thanking the u.s. government for the technology are going to be drug dealers and carrots but american officials of course claim the best of intentions saying the innovation is to protect pro-democracy forces in other countries to help use the technologies more effectively the u.s. has organized training sessions for thousands of activists the one held just weeks ago in the middle east including anti-government campaigners from from the asia eject syria and lebanon and as they knew we trained and equipped activists returned home the u.s. as one state department official put it counts on the ripple effect for any

interference doesn't have to be a military invasion or a bombing campaign or a or some kind of special operation on the ground in that country it can also be the training and funding and the political support given to individuals who then promote this for interest and that's one of the newer strategies that the u.s. government the successfully been executing in different countries around the world that it doesn't consider subordinate to their agenda and it's a way to do it subtly it's it's harder to detect it it's harder to denounce it. and it can often be more effective the u.s. perceives the internet and social networking platforms as major tools for spreading democracy and pumps millions of dollars into developing systems to help people in the middle east and china get around internet blocking firewalls but at the same time american companies provide bahrain saudi arabia and kuwait with their technology to effectively block websites when the us government purports to be spreading democracy it's simply a sham it's a pretense it's

a lie the goal of us foreign policy is to put people in public office in foreign countries the us military has recently launched an online management program which enables it to generate multiple fake identities on social networks the false personas are designed to contribute to the flow of conversations on facebook twitter and other websites people are using social media for cyber warfare i mean that's what we're going to see more more and more of i think from from whether it's governments or non-state actors are going to try to find ways to use the internet and social media to gain an advantage in their own battle the recent turmoil in libya's suggest orchestration of twitter with fake users only around five percent of libyans have access to the internet and the number of twitter users there is so small that analysts couldn't even calculate it yet in february of this year

a surge of lead in twitter accounts of peer reporting in english and virtually all begging for intervention we know. since the beginning of the war but libyans still don't get about access to it but those suburbs hope people don't check this essential fact take all this information coming here are you which is the real purpose of rickey you think that you. trained activists provided with panic partners and other technologies scores of false identities on the internet spreading certain ideas the u.s. says it's all about promoting democracy but do these declared intentions justified direct interference in other countries the mess that got fares and then it struck our reporting for washington our team. still to come here in our struggle to preserve the front lines like these russian parents aren't getting everything they

need from the government to help to keep their children and life. now tensions between the u.s. and pakistan have risen sharply in recent weeks leading islamabad officials to demand a cut in the number of cia personnel in the country it comes as its foreign office called american drone attacks quote they call it recent in the fight against terror the latest a time drew strong criticism after several civilians were killed in north waziristan on wednesday oxys mauriat from national reports. here in islamabad officials say the relations between the u.s. and pakistan are today and it's war since nine eleven and there are many reasons behind these terry ration a case in point is that of raymond davis a cia spy who shot two pakistanis died in brode daylight earlier claiming they were trying to rob him this incident exposed huge concerns over the activity of u.s.

private security firms similar to those operations and iraq others claim the real work was on neutralizing the card trees nuclear arsenal which is to become the world's largest pakistani officials here in islamabad say they have no idea how many you asked contractors are currently functioning in pakistan and their identities are nor their purposes and unacceptable situation the u.s. obsession with fire and drones into pakistan also threatens to critically destabilize the situation in pakistan targeted militants in the northern part of pakistan near its border with afghanistan march seventeenth drone strike is reported to have killed forty innocent civilians prompting a month long break by the us but despite these casualties and a bloody experience both of candy stand and iraq and now in pakistan here.

seems to be no sign of a policy change from nato as part pakistani officials here in islamabad in the capital of pakistan warn about. a seriously strengthened not only anti american sentiment but also to military sentiment in this region making it increasingly hard to justify the continuing war on terror pakistan's prime minister in an interview with r t can. us drone strikes are causing huge anxiety for pakistan and are creating more problems rather than solutions in fighting terror the drone attacks the. fear of the militants and against the government and the military the problem. is not in favor of the strategy or critical strategy. work difficult despite

us immunity undermining the pakistani government's top officials here in the capital are keen to smooth over divisive issues to stress the key point that a stable pakistan is in the interests of. grief notion r t islamabad pakistan. he is coming to live from moscow where it's now a quarter past the hour u.s. president barack obama has outlined a package of tax increases on the rich and spending cuts to reduce the country's crippling debt by four trillion dollars over the next twelve years the president unveiled its person during a speech in washington republicans attacked his proposal saying it wouldn't solve anything and was merely to score political points ahead of next year's election they say the wealthiest should be given tax breaks to boost the economy and such as in domestic spending on health care and social programs should be more severe just a little bit later this hour here on out he will be speaking to the nobel prize winning economist joseph stiglitz says the problem with the u.s.

economy lies with the fact that money is in the hands of the few. increase in the concentration of the income in wealth in the united states has been enormous was happen in the last couple decades it is almost a poor job all the income goes up the one percent most americans are worse off than they were say a decade ago there are many things that any society has to do together education investments in technology. infrastructure roads there has to be certain degree of consensus for a society to function even economically the two things the government has to do and that's where we're winding up today so the people at the top that one percent are using that political power to try to preserve their wealth and meanwhile making sure that the government doesn't do what is necessary for the prosperity the

functioning of our entire society. now c.c.t.v. footage of the suspected terrorists responsible for monday's bombing of the russian metro has not been released. a look right here the footage shows a man enter the metro and leave a large bag on the platform before then leaving the scene authorities and say the other suspects arrested over the attack on the mint's metro have confessed explosions rocked the central station during rush hour killing twelve and injuring nearly two hundred it was the first fatal terror attack in the country's modern history right now let's take a brief look at some other headlines from around the world this hour and japanese are searching for victims around the damaged fukushima nuclear plant following of course the march earthquake and tsunami up to a thousand orders are thought to be in the area where the retrieval has been

delayed because of radiation fears staff are working to bring the nuclear plant under control after cooling systems at three reactors were knocked out by the quake more than three hundred police in protective gear are carrying out the search. cuba is facing its worst drought in half a century with tens of thousands of families almost entirely reliant on that water trucks for their essential surprise the drought started about two years ago and now water reservoirs are down to a fifth of the normal levels the government is providing road to live resolve water to over one hundred thousand people in the worst affected areas of the capital. colleen prime minister silvio berlusconi has confirmed that he will not run for office again when his current sonic's rise in two thousand and thirteen he said he intended to complete his plan to amend italy's judicial system and to change the country's constitution before leaving we while the italian lower house of

parliament has approved a bill which may end up bribery case against the prime minister it's all part of a broader review program into the judicial system but critics say it's designed to keep berlusconi out of jail. now watching a child suffer without being able to help is a hardship many parents across russia have to deal with every single day the lack of treatment and funding for kids with illnesses leaves them with no other option but to fend for themselves but it's not easy or has been finding out their parents refuse to give up hope that the government will eventually come through true for them before it gets too late. they're about the same age believe in one country and they have the same debilitating condition the only difference between them is that one was born in the capital and another one lives in a small town and it's this zip code lottery it's already defined who of them believe and who will die legitimate some others ask me if it's all worth it all

this expensive treatment and the nurse told me look he's turned he's unable to talk and still wears diapers what's the point of spending so much in his treatment but i love him regardless of whether he was diapers or not i just love him the way he is this sort of questions is pursuing mothers of children with the huntress syndrome all the time but only because these genetic condition is impossible to cure but even more so because treating it is prohibited really expensive so expensive that for many years these children didn't stand a chance of living to middle age that is until and mothers like her forced moscow authorities to pay for treatment yet the russian constitution doesn't say that if the treatment is expensive and shouldn't be provided or that if a child was unfortunate to be born in a small town you should be abandoned to allow nature to take its course. yet this is exactly what's happening on the two hundred fifty children countries syndrome in

russia less than a half are receiving lifesaving drugs fourteen year old's body is not one of them the buildup of toxins that his body's unable to recycle has left him unable to walk and talk of the last few months he's been rapidly losing his side and hearing bullet is tremendous estimated to cost more than eight hundred thousand dollars that's an exorbitant amount that could offer favorable dozens and hundreds of people with less complicated conditions but with all this money and may not believe can see the next summer the saddest thing about all of that part. nobody thinks to care about god even my husband left here or when he learned of their son's disability local authorities refused to help citing the lack of money but he lives thankful for small mercies bodies still alive and if it comes hope. i'm happy just

a week up and see him breathing sometimes he smiles and it's the greatest gave for me i know the treatment is expensive and i know this money could help me other children but he didn't choose his condition and he also deserves to live the russian president recently suggested that the hunter syndrome be added to the list of illnesses treated exclusively at the expense of the federal budget and move many of the medical community say is long over due when there are between six thousand and eight thousand trained on a search and the treatment for many of them missed you either nonexistent or too expensive but the rarity of the illness definitely shouldn't be a criteria for providing medical assistance to these kids and so much pain and then title to treatment just like children with food or chicken pox bursting bubbles is something that these mothers have longer to use to when they give birth to their children they all dreamt of their becoming someone raid and it was only after the killing diagnosis they realized their children were just that great.

more news today violence is once again flared up. these are the images the world has been seeing from the streets of canada. trying to corporations through the day . twenty five minutes past the hour now here in moscow time for the business news with coke. hello and welcome to our business update here in r.t. thanks for joining me b.p. has confirmed for the first time that together with ross nasty has offered cash and arctic opportunities to the russian general holders. it was to buy those partners out so we can proceed with the sixteen billion dollars share swap arctic exploration deal it's signed with ross next january be one of the annual general

meeting is underway in london i mean protests from shareholders and environmentalist or else has been. this is a deeply uncomfortable day for b.p.'s executives as they face their shareholders essentially for the first time since this analysts who really started for them it started very much at this time last year with the gulf of mexico oil spill and then it has been and by this debacle over the. deal to get its gratian and share swap deal we have seen demonstrations outside the a.g.m. which includes gulf coast fishermen saying that their livelihoods and communities have been destroyed by the oil spill we've also seen eight protesters dragged out forcibly if that meeting the words from shareholders is that b.p. has got to salvage something from this ross north deal if it hopes to move forward and stay the oil major that it has been for the last foreseeable past we have seen an extension to the share swap deadline so that's a good thing it gives. b.p.

and b.p. another month to sort out how they're going to perform this swap deal there is optimism that a compromise can be found particularly with this extra time the most likely possibility look that b.p. will buy out the russian shareholders a r that seems to be the most likely compromise but b.p. doesn't really have any money so it'll have to be quite a good price it's reached. another possibility that the wall street journal has been reporting is that b.p. would in fact sell outs of t m k b.p. again though it would lose a substantial revenue stream so it is a saying bob dudley knew all along about a deal with ross that would lead to confrontation with their neighbor the russian consortium a shareholder in b.p. holders will presumably be helping that he's got some kind of solution up his sleeve that he has known about all along essentially. look at the markets your stocks are falling on the higher than expected claims for unemployment benefits the
