9:06 am
a smile to use when i saw him a russian bombshell describes how she fell out of the charms of none other than the italian prime minister. full regulations are not common and the highlights of this interview coming up in just a few minutes here on our program. now in libya nato has launched a new strikes on pro-government military targets as coalition leaders pledged to carry on the campaign until colonel gadhafi steps down but it raises concerns about whether the intentions of the alliance contradict the u.n. no fly zone resolution things are thought of go as a russia nato summit for us and what it. indeed a very intense talks between russia and major in berlin today following a joint letter written by president barack obama president nicolas sarkozy and british prime minister david cameron cameron which was addressed to the in which they really are steps that god's nature is going to stay in they be as long as it
9:07 am
takes until gadhafi steps down the same saying same day eight air strikes hit the country's capital tripoli and according to reports from libya there have been a number of civilian casualties now russia and china initially did not sort of vote against the u.n. security council resolution. no fly zone over libya but now that what used to be a mission to protect civilians in libya looks like is turning into a bloody massacre according to some experts in russia that other interpretation of the u.n. security council resolution. has been very loose by one set of u.n. resolutions petersfield in accordance with the wording and amazing and not with free interpretations of some states because we voted for a new fly using just the escalation of the conflict so that we could separate the two sides but we're having now is a military operation it may not be on the ground yet but it's certainly going on.
9:08 am
number of countries who are taking part and the nature stepped in but the resolution doesn't say the word france and britain have already called on four other countries of the alliance to join the operation in libya however so far only six of twenty nine twenty eight i'm sorry have exams so so it does look like there is no not so you know in this opinion about the situation with the nato itself and many experts have already called it not a mission to protect civilians in libya but rather a u.s. led operation military intervention into an oil rich country. that will russia's foreign minister sergei lavrov is going to be delivering his speech at the meeting and it's coming. he will be broadcasting it live. in just a couple of minutes here the u.k. is accused of hiring of mercenaries to serve in the. other securities i think. it should be invoked volatile states it does go beyond the law as he explores
9:09 am
a previously conflict zones which turned into gold mines for the for private security contractors. and the british m.p. barry gardiner thinks that britain should withdraw from the coalition operation in libya yog use the humanitarian mission is now all about regime change and i think it's i don't believe that what is now going on is justified indeed at the beginning it was made very clear by david cameron and others that this could not be about regime change this was about humanitarian protection well that is clearly no longer the case and this that is clear you no longer the case then britain should not be involved in the original reason that was given for britain being involved it was simply to stop those airstrikes on benghazi and indeed regionally this was marketed to the public and to the world at large as being simply the enforcement of
9:10 am
a no fly zone that is not what is now happening and indeed it isn't what's been happening really from that first week on blitz all current political changes backed by some powers could create a better environment for al qaeda that's the view of former cia counterterrorism analyst michael sure he told r.t. that the hopes for a democratic middle east. i think the end of the tyrannies in the middle east are creating an environment in which islamised groups whether it's al qaeda or any of its allies will be able to operate much more easily and with with much less pressure from security services the successor governments aren't going to be as effective when they're not and they're going to be more islamic i don't think they're going to be fundamentalists they're not really we're not really worried about al-qaeda taking over any particular government but we're going to have a situation where operationally it's much easier for these groups to exist to train and to plan and mrs clinton is really
9:11 am
a fan to since she really believes somehow that this is going to be a secular democratic revolution in it's as far away from that is it possibly could be britain is reportedly hiring private contractors to protect big corporations in the event of kidnappings the poncho but the experience of previous interventions shows that most in areas can become a gold diggers in both all areas just like libya. homeless and displaced people disrupted water electricity supplies decimated infrastructure to the world's tragic scenes of the destruction of lives but to britain's large private security sector a gold mine in two thousand and nine the u.k.'s ministry of defense spent eighty two million dollars on hiring private security firms and now insiders say they're hiring again for libya for the rest of us and for most people these wars these conflicts are just a cause for concern because the great grief for these companies this is
9:12 am
a bonanza time private security really boomed in iraq and by two thousand and four the global industry was estimated at one hundred billion dollars private security is an industry populated by ex soldiers where regulation is entirely voluntary that's led to numerous human rights violations this footage peaked in two thousand and five apparently shows a team of u.k. security contractors taking unprovoked pot shots at cars on a road in baghdad. formally in the elite f.a.'s paxman did ten years as a contractor in africa and iraq while working undercover paxman says he's even had other contractors open fire on him if you've got loads of security contractors coming into your village. getting paid. that money in comparative terms to what the locals will be paid of course it's going to be you know a fair bit of. a fair bit of friction between the groups and i repair it of time
9:13 am
that can be exploited quite easily by external groups such as should such as terrorist groups security companies are typically hired by defense ministries and multinational corporations to protect people and property from insurgents because of the dangerous nature of their work it can easily get out of hand private security is i think a. volatile states it does. libya increasingly looks like being a volatile state good while to come and a new conflict zone means a new cash cow for private security companies the reality of. private contracts is that now doing the work. without many of the rules and regulations that govern on the engagements that could mean a new round of human rights violations in an unstable country and while it would be libya that would bear the brunt of that cost. more business.
9:14 am
so you find out what western involvement in ivory coast could mean for the unstable country that's coming up in a cross toward. the west has got to understand that if they go in premature if the go into countries and get involved into politics that they're not understand if they fail to understand the cultural and tribal mixes and how that integrates on the ground itself then you can find that they can have similar situations what we find in afghanistan and iraq and most recently that's all of. i'll force now we're seeing similar situations we've libya. you can see across talking about two hours and twenty minutes from now here and now italy is enigmatic prime minister silvio berlusconi has once again found himself in the midst of a series of scandalous headlines but there's one person standing loyally by his
9:15 am
side as he met with rice who claims to be a long time friend and a close confidant of the pm describing berlusconi as a perfect gentleman she thinks the accusations aimed at him are all a lie designed to tarnish his good. just friends but close ones that's what i used to school says of her relationship with silvio berlusconi which she says is exceptionally warm and friendly she's been a guest at his famed parties which have landed him in rather hot water when we're in a place of together that avalanche of wood will barely ever were together like this but now in much much closer together how did you feel a battle was corny what kind of impression did he make on you. i can't even explain what i felt inside when i met him he gave me goosebumps when i saw him because he's a very handsome man it was love at first sight is such
9:16 am
a gentleman one hundred percent and they're very new witnesses and berlusconi is case of party guests behaved indecently and they were also encouraged to take part in some kind of free will is game what can you tell us about berlusconi's parties. i once was i he's new year's party and wheeled lloyd is moving to the dance floor d.j. we just started down someone who trains and cool things floating around the place and there were men that only women as the media says once he invited a special dance show which was unlike anything outrageous it was a beautiful new land rush style show can you tell us about the presents that mr berlusconi gave. silvio gives presents to all women not to man here special scarves. and he gives them to women like a memento of visiting berlusconi might be a pin a lot of rain nothing expensive or scarves everything is made especially for him so
9:17 am
that he can give his own presents. who could benefit from the scandal good thing berlusconi is being attacked by a special media campaign when you say it's the communists because it's that who else would benefit they want to get rid of him a sauce to support any meanness i don't know but they might even wearing something from the moon and say their berlusconi did something there that's all we need right now. or if you like you i watched four to strike out or you tube channel. 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 hope for a shelter rooted a. mum.
9:18 am
without you live from moscow and to siberia now where an unprecedented warm spell has sparked a number of wildfires while forest fires are a yearly occurrence and russian authorities usually have a brief pause between winter thawing and late spring when wildfires start in earnest but this year a sharp rise in temperatures has left firefighters scrambling to halt in front as however emergency workers do say that they are well prepared to deal with the situation following last year's widespread fires the government organized a statewide upgrade of fire fighting equipment. now not as good as some other stories making headlines around the world at this hour a u.n. tribunal has convicted and he could have been a top croatian general to twenty four years in jail for nine counts of war crimes against arabs and nine hundred ninety five another general was sentenced to seventeen years retailed of the two men that were accused of masterminding the operation your source to one hundred thousand serbs forced out of croatia hundreds
9:19 am
of civilians who refused to leave were brutally executed in croatia where the generals are viewed as heroes a large crowd who gathered to hear the verdict in the capital booed and denounced the trial. hundreds of thousands of protesters have once again taken to the streets in yemen this time demonstrations calling for the resignation of the country's leader president abdullah saleh however in defiance of the protests stressed that he remains that legitimate head of state it follows a string of setbacks from the president after a number of tribal leaders dropped their support for him and the opposition refused to enter talks. nearly fifty thousand japanese families who lived near the critical fukushima nuclear power plant will be paid compensation it follows a government order obligating the plant's operator the tokyo electric power company to cut all damages caused a price of the incident here to be given an average of a crowd of twelve thousand dollars each which critics say is far too little
9:20 am
superhumans plan. remains in critical condition of civil authorities trying it just quickly to stabilize the situation. but only changes will help the global financial system avoid future trouble to make sure we get if we sent a clear message during an annual economic forum in china and the event has been. that it brings together the political and business elites of the region as he says us earlier reports from the. the leaders of the of brics countries have come to be a blowout for him would be a consensus they have reached at the summit that they want to see reforms both in be international financial system as well as those of global governance in order to reflect what they see as a stronger reality of the shift in power at least economically moving from the west to the well off and they have brought up the being offered an alternative to be a global reserve currency because apparently a dominated by the u.s. dollar nothing gets put into detail but they do want to see reform in fact as well
9:21 am
another thing they did bring up in your situation and i think that profit for them a bed of wants to see our cooperation in the pursuit of a safe nuclear energy especially safety mechanisms in dealing with catastrophes as they had seen in japan and i think today that they are really bringing up is the are the issue of social inequality that could rise from there it's the economic growth now they don't want to see the rich becoming richer and the poor becoming for that widening therefore they don't want to sacrifice the ability in their pursuit of their economic goals worth get more insight now i'm joined by mark mason of goldman sachs asia thank you very much for joining us now we have seen of you consensus from the brics summit how do you think american science is going to impact the economic and political world so i think this is a very positive development for the world i think the fact that these five major economies across all the major of consonance the world now come together in a coordinated fashion is very positive this being a general understanding of the rise of the economic power of the four contras and
9:22 am
also now with africa included the rise of these five areas and so i think europe and the us have been acutely aware of the be and have a simple economic strength and rising strength of these areas and thinking carefully on how to how to interact some deal with that but it's it's it's a reality thank you very much to these a country certainly looking for. more cooperation and coordination economically but not also politically when seductively all five countries are members of the u.n. security council they do want to see more influence in fact and therefore they want to be a pursuit again of their economic power in line with their political problems while . reporting right now are tough for the news of korea. iran welcome report thanks for joining me b.p.'s falls probably has met the head of
