more news today is once again flared up. these are the images the world has been seeing from the streets of canada. trying to look for asians to rule the day. as the arab unrest puts the heat on oil prices other countries look for alternatives but the e.u. could be making a costly mistake by trying to avoid affordable russian energy also this hour. we say that this child is a victim and yet we sent her to jail somewhere along the line there's something wrong with that america's child sex shame that's fueling fury towards the government over by under-age prostitutes are being prosecuted instead of protecting . and british officials are preparing to vacate one of its largest travellers

communities which was brutal rout of thousands of people and cost millions. watching r.t. live from moscow these are the top stories most countries are paying the prize for the unrest in the oil rich arab world now there's a scramble for cheaper alternatives to head off the rising cost of fuel by one of the e.u. still determined to avoid russia which is one of the world's top gas exporters securing affordable energy is not going to be easy are these daniel bushell reports . the french truck company and the road ahead looks bleak oil prices mean filling up a pool fifteen hundred euros if you're not watching it closely than then you go bankrupt chaos in libya and the oil rich middle east has hit

a you supplies and shot up prices but they could be an alternative you see that people use north and south stream well rated builds supply risks and energy prices would be lower. he use refusing to back new russian projects to supply energy it's continuing to insist on diversity of supply we support especially projects which give us access consoles since this is. what i can have as an example is the part. i have like couple of other countries in the will the e.u. funds and force tracks the gas pipeline from as through turkey but not russia's north or south stream. of course much more to build its suppliers have no resources to spare and the logic of building it is even questioned by participants and list say the e.u. is making

a very expensive mistake of course when there are big economic problems. social changes like we're seeing in the arab world the current trouble in the middle east does show that europe does have a reliable energy problem in russia compared with some other places if boylan's in the arab world continues into next month experts to fuel prices to double again that feels lower as in particular with trade first and foremost the e.u.'s lack of confidence in russia is hurting its own citizens the e.u. makes it hard for normal people to get by alex's high gas bills leave him short of money for food and if prices double he doesn't know what's he will do then you will sure see brussels he will prices are unlikely to drop in the near future as the foreign intervention in libya shows little sign of letting up after nearly a month of action patrick hayes from the online political magazine spiked told r.t.

that it was well thought through and is aimed at city in our democracy. what we've seen over the last month now is basically a geopolitical mayhem where you have countries who are all in this kind of shabby coalition which is kind of flaking off not really knowing what they're trying to achieve with no real sense of a strategy and no real sense of an end game whatsoever everyone's been kind of goading each other on saying well when you try to step in but no one's really want to get too committed and it's very striking that you know it takes a month for affectively for sarkozy cameron and obama to make their statements that you know we have this united front which was on the washington washington post the times and the moment but i think this is actually very opportunistic and the way i would characterize this is more kind of p.r. imperialism these are the kind of the western leaders grandstanding on the international stage for very short term goals they don't really know what they want to achieve but they're doing it for their own personal reasons try and make themselves look like kind of great international leaders fundamentally democratic

the malkuth emerging trains and these are coming from people fighting from the streets a grassroots kind of battle it can be handed to people on a plate by basically western leaders sweeping in like guardian angels in the long term things will be made worse things are always made worse by western intervention coming in people need to be allowed to determine their own fate they need to be able to make history for themselves and it's only through that process of struggling against tyrants that's as good as the that they can really bring about true democratic strains. chris nine am from stop the war says nato is divided between those who want to stick to the humanitarian ethos of the un resolution and those who want to abuse it. it's very big splits in the alliance i mean on the one hand you have people who want to stick to the u.n. resolution which is talk which talks about confirming civilians and. you know has very very limited items on the other hand you have the u.s.

britain and france who have now come clean and come off the fence and say that they . are fakes if they said that they are going for regime change and this intervention which is you know which is something that is not covered in the in the resolution is is as far as i can see illegal military intervention doesn't bring liberation doesn't bring progress it creates carnage it creates misery and and it tends to generate a spiral of violence in a country. we have more insight into what's happening in libya and around tamina time here in r.t. his military can she explores why the coalition's heavy hitters are to blame for civilian deaths in the stricken country. russia's prime minister is warning against people getting too excited about he's role in the upcoming twenty twelve presidential election race it comes as what he wouldn't met with political have he waits from the country's leading united russia party r.t.

shaun thomas has the details but it certainly has been a very interesting week in russian national politics in terms of speculating who will run for that top position of president the head of state who would be with the other again for a second term or will it be the current prime minister vladimir putin who has held that position in the past this of course prompted him to go to the united russia party of which he is the head of to speak with top party officials and say look guys it's too early bad election isn't until two thousand and twelve it's still a ways away and we still need to focus on the state duma elections which are coming up this year on december fourth of two thousand and eleven but let me give you a little bit of history about why this has been such a big deal this week and particularly ahead of the brics summit meeting in china we did have met with the chinese media and in that he was asked about possible good visions and policy different ways different directions that he might be going away from the body reputedly in terms of how the country is being run he said yes there

are some areas where they disagree but this is part of a healthy democracy it's part of a system that works now the two of them have been friends for a long time this interview prompted the united russia party to start hinting if you will that they would be in support of a lot even a prudent presidency come two thousand and twelve this leading to today's discussion so very interesting we can deed and of course in the international community the world likes to see these two put it. against each other or say one of them is weaker than the other but two strong leaders of the world's largest country it's going to be interesting to see how it plays out santorum is there and we've got plenty of election coverage on our web site at r.t. dot com for you to keep a check on who's likely to lead russia from twenty twelve. i do prostitution in the united states is organized crime is third biggest money maker after guns and drugs but washington is accused of blaming the kids instead of the

criminals putting young girls behind bars for walking the streets instead of offering rescue and help ideas guy niched account explains. the u.s. state department regularly puts out reports on how horrific human trafficking is in other countries but right under the government's very nose in washington dozens of girls and boys are sold. just walks away from capitol hill work on the street that's known as the heart for lobbyists and lawyers in washington that by day like night this is where supporters of prostitutes walk to get picked up and killed when the average age of thirteen are also being trafficked here to washington and seoul the f.b.i. estimates that each year more than one hundred thousand under-age american girls are exploited for commercial sex in the united states but the usual treatment that children get when arrested is either jail time or probation in the us prostitution laws do not exam minors from prosecution the office of juvenile justice and

delinquency prevention reported one thousand and six hundred juveniles were arrested for prostitution within just one year but lawyer say in the u.s. the paradox of the system is that the children are prosecuted for crimes for which they cannot legally give consent the hold up we we say that this child is a victim and yet we send her to jail somewhere along the line there's something wrong with that and we need to be taken a look at ourselves and a look at the fact that we have we have made detention and we have made law enforcement in the criminal justice system in the juvenile justice system a default setting for what happens to these kids and that we just kind of lock them up and ship them away and that's the end of our response to this issue is we want to make sure that these children are treated as victims but treating the victims and providing for their recovery requires funding fortunately there is a federal money for us both since the trafficking tina front works with a nonprofit group in washington which helps the children to get their lives back providing housing and medical treatment she herself was trafficked at the age of

thirteen says it's easier for the government to label the children as prostitutes charge them and send them to detention centers rather. in funk shelters and invest in their future there's not enough housing for sex trafficking victims at all around the country there's one hundred thousand about eighty beds which includes that's it and the us so what they're saying is so for their safety we will arrest them and put them in jail. so the case is further states but they don't get any services and we charge the victim and we don't put rape victims in jail so why would we put thanks and so are trafficked and almost all of the victims of child trafficking remember being constantly raped and abused both spied payments on clients and many of the young people that we serve have been incarcerated and charged as an adult under the age of sixteen and so they have this lengthy fifteen twenty thirty forty arrests both as a juvenile and as an adult for purse detention and so when they go to apply for

public housing they know eligible for that when they go to do certain employment that pops up in their background check and then you know kind of booted out of an employment training program these children is already scarred as it is and the nonprofit organizations that help victims of sex trafficking say by prosecuting the children by not investing in their recovery it is the government that is scoring their future i'm going to check our reporting from washington our team. so i have for you this hour the royal wedding bells ringing across the atlantic. this country ran away promoting land because of of royalty in queens and queens or if the british want to do it with the americans the greek fascinating. is so ridiculous get a life already or are going to ask people in new york if they're in the mood for marriage out of the british monarchy is their. family have to this side of

a future winter olympics to find out why people there are convinced it's also a u.f.o. hotspot that's a few minutes away. the residents of one of europe's largest traveller communities are being booted out by british officials more than a thousand people are being told to leave an area the coal hole for over three decades as artie's lore and it reports the removal operation may come at an immense cost for britain and not just financially. it's an age old story traveller communities being moved on because they're not welcome where they settle dale farm is the u.k.'s largest gypsy and trackless site where one of the biggest evictions in british history is being planned and the council's accused of ethnic cleansing now got four kids living in jail found there has been no protest in year and yes there is no leaves out its own says william wordsworth travelers have been living

at dale farm since the one nine hundred seventy s. the settlement started off small and the trouble began when new comers came and bought land around it then they built homes without legal permission in the local town feelings run high many people told us the travellers are messy and noisy driving the crime rate up and property values down most refused to talk on camera saying they feared violent retribution those who acted were more guarded i think everybody should pay their way in the way of rights in texas and i don't believe they did the people that live around them know their past prices go down that's the only thing after which is a problem and might be some time ponzo able or might be a part of rest of us so you know they should be treated as a reporter you understand it like but you know yes just not just you know you shouldn't be there initially growing trees because it is but others say the lands the travelers built on was scrapyard not green belt and the travellers are being

persecuted because of their different way of life so although i'm all for protection of the green belt i do not think that that particular bit constitutes the steinmetz in any way i agree that there are always people in every community who you know mess up things but this is common in every single community within the country it is not unique to travelers and ship sinks in and in fact dale farm is a considerably. quite compete. place compared with many streets with. whatever the truth battles in council voted overwhelmingly seek it the charcoal it out and a cool sort of cracks them up but it won't come cheap with litigation and bailiffs and what could be a two month long continuous operation of some. trouble. from . the authorities.

that figure rises to a team million including the police operation has staggering twenty nine million dollars a particularly huge sum in austerity britain where cuts a big way to council the country the cost of the eviction hasn't deterred the council they are north of threats of violence from the travellers battle lines are being drawn here at dale farm the thousand strong communities where they'll fight literally if necessary because they've got nowhere else to go and council will match that force with bags of cash and the conviction that the law is on their site you are and it's artsy essex whatever happens at dale farm intolerance towards actually communities in britain is reaching boiling point our country wants to cut immigration levels rasta. i want ration less immigration but is a deliverable british m.p.

at the. markets why not. find out what's really happening to the global economy because the reports on our t.v. you're watching r t let's return to events in libya now where the rebels say they are hoping to soon take control of the oil port city of bragg an opposition spokesman says they are confident and have what he called weapons supplies from friendly countries are his military contributors as nato is meddling as plunging the country into a deadly stalemate and may there is full of sheer thinking. that is far as levy a conflict he's concerned the ever thought actually he's in charge of that western humanitarian bombing in leave you think about it first what started as a successful for ancient intelligence to give us against deathy this

year in february dubbed him a man tim and overtly expanding into the u. n. resolution behind the united states and its allies were involved in a full fledged western military operation in libya now ease in charge of their western military effort to leave via france the united states nato allies in fact even in washington in brussels they can't figure out themselves who actually he's leading their western efforts this solution to really in conflict has been happy with sleep lost so far between the obese unity of efforts among and between the united states nato and allies at large instead of saving a levy and people they're desperately trying to save their faces and their

political couriers. let's take a look at some other stories from around the world japan's checking the supplies from all of its nuclear power plants after a five point nine magnitude aftershock was felt north of tokyo no damage has been reported but officials want to ensure there are no crippling power outages similar to those after last month's earthquake and tsunami meanwhile efforts to restore the cooling systems out of the plant have been hampered by rising levels of contaminated water in one of the reactors. there are reports that a policeman has been beaten to death by anti-government demonstrators in syria the country has seen the biggest protest of the month long unrest with security forces using tear gas and baton to disperse those calling for reforms the man's include the lifting of the decades old emergency law and the ousting of president bashar asad two days earlier he offered concessions forming

a new government and declaring an amnesty for some of those arrested last month. several attorneys have been ripping through parts of the u.s. state of alabama with at least one person reported killed in stable urgency was the clear day after the storm's program friday the severe weather has already passed through several other states killing nine and causing widespread destruction. britain's royal wedding is still a fortnight away but excitement already swelling across the atlantic u.s. morning shows are gearing up to pull out all the stops to cover prince william and kate middleton's big day parties roving reporter laurie harkness has been in new york to see whether viewers are in the party mood. i used to think of the media's nonstop coverage of the royal wedding this week let's talk about that this country ran away from england because of of royalty and

kings and queens just because they're born into a stupid family if the british wanted my can do it with the americans to be. fascinating. it's so ridiculous get a life already of murder eventually. brings a war of thoughts for reform source things like in. something like that. in my opinion really we don't need is it good for people to have gods away from serious things or is it just a distraction good because if you always think about the problems you have. in your life when you kill yourself do you care about the royal wedding yes i care. not probably because mr berlusconi our prime minister.

takes it all the scene so so you have your own big media story. but is it good for our culture does it enrich just as a people i don't necessarily think it hurts us as a people to know what the queen or the future queen is going to wear to haul a wedding it doesn't hurt me it doesn't hurt me any it doesn't take anything away it doesn't turn you down it doesn't tell me no it does not but they're not you want to be inundated with the media's vapid fluffy news stories the bottom line is they're not going to stop with them any time soon the only real answer is to keep that remote control close at hand. and x. will look at whether eighteen feels at home in southern russia recent i'll explain why it's in the sky which have caught on camera are among the increasing sightings which have the locals baffled artie's there is a lot he paid a visit. i shut down your party and the shape of these projectors made us believe

that this flying saucer whatever it was it was or the launch the call because small the only people to film the lights and have become overnight celebrities the u.f.o. tape was immediately aired on local television the villages own channels of a car ran a feature story about the sighting and published the video on the internet local reporter alexander broke the story a complete change from his usual fare of milk yields and local politics now he's ready to take on the x. wiles for wasn't when we shared the video on our website people started copy pasting it so we got responses from a piece five other eyewitnesses all over the course of the region who also this particular u.f.o. you follow just say this part of russia's south is like the area around rosabelle in new mexico harbor. but some experts like by deem are skeptical about the sighting many can be explained but not all of them are

christian and our region has a very high frequency a real extraterrestrial activity almost the highest in the whole country and in places like sore cheek which is a big city that stretches when we coast there is of course a better chance to spot something unusual so why all this interstellar traffic and the russian self maybe they're getting a sneak preview of the sochi olympics. or maybe they're just like the place whatever it is the truth is out there somewhere there is a border crossing the region has more thrale thinking coming up on r.t. can ask for and around russia five minutes as we get wet. they come in cars and. cell phones to play with. the others wants to take spirits. but she's the
