checking overnight in the french official calls for ground troops sarkozy's a guest bathroom is convincing his own people. live and let die presently russian convict pleads to end he's under a lot of officials are adamant stuff if today's action. prospects are in georgia say they've been abandoned by the country or for many unable to afford basic necessities even the struggle to survive and can chance a. russian stock exchanges regain some of the ground lost after a disastrous monday on the world financial markets. around

the world and around the clock you're watching r.t. went straight to our top story now there's the clearest indication yet that foreign forces are eager to get ground troops in libya even though it's expressed the forbidden the u.n. resolution france's foreign affairs chairman is warning the campaign when cornered without him on the ground and french public unconvinced i think president sarkozy fighting you front back home has done bush reports. france is now fighting in three wars the first foreign state to go into libya the last just force in ivory coast civil war and it's just sent more troops to afghanistan but what's the french media and this is what you get the americans are responsible for the rising civilian death toll and there's no mention of the french contingency the locals welcomed

their western liberators with open arms. we're being for propaganda no relations to the truth we're told the community is behind us but france just wants africa's resources. this reporter explains how the french government dictates national coverage you wolf basically follow our editorial line . on foreign policy or you will not be invited or included to come back and ask questions or press conferences and we will have big cooperate with you when you seek interviews but if you turn to the internet the view of president sarkozy's policies a much more critical french people are growing increasingly worried about their country being labeled as imperialist with little regard for its victims oppositions of the war centers on the rising number of casualties and the damage it does to

france's reputation activists say france's media coverage is one sided but the real story will eventually get through after almost a decade of war in afghanistan the news of the dozens of french soldiers and thousands of civilians killed is finally hitting home born of gonna start. treated. the invasion of iraq the biggest and she will release in history there were experts say libya could become sarkozy's iraq and despoiled government efforts the truth on france's current wars is also coming elts than you see paris. nearly a thousand people have been evacuated from libya's western city of misurata to the rebel stronghold of benghazi opposition is struggling to lift a weeks long siege like i don't get all of his forces saying they have no chance of resisting without the help of nato airstrikes conn hallinan who writes for foreign

policy in focus says china may have no option but to become another player. china between the middle east and africa draws almost all of its imported oil from this region so if you examine the libya invasion in terms of the role of the us military in the fifth fleet in the persian gulf and the red sea and then african in libya but you see is that four out of five five out of the six are leading sure says of china's oil and gas are under either u.s. sanction or of u.s. military control put its thumb on the juggler vein so i think you have to see libya less as a particular incident and as a piece on a very global chess board i don't think they expected the united states and britain and france to directly involved involve themselves in the civil war i think what

they decided was they would go the no fly zone because it's very difficult to resist one at that time trying to figure ok do the no fly zone porn legal and charter you're then supposed to sit down and talk to people before you move to a military operation in fact the ink was not even dry before the french started gone in so i think in a certain sense the chinese got snookered into doing this i don't think is going to do it again it can't really deal with the kind of the regime because there are un sanctions against that are going to deal with the rebels they've invested a lot of money in libya they pulled out their nationals so i think at this point what's happened is the chinese have been boxed into a corner. well still ahead new this out of forces behind the uprisings agents that the state funded organizations johnson of worlds in the arab world we hear why there's a catch and changing libya. and keeping a terrible new in

a. local sense of billions of dollars of claims that instead of thinking of it in its popular cool regimes. a terminally ill russian prisoner is pleading for the rights to die dr sagan ardent winston's condition is critical of that and towards the treatment and desperately needs one in jail he's already been told and these are is not an option because it's held in worship or terms with the notion or his words and it's a. can out east forty five and he's dying and he's still independence diabetic his last sixty days in ten months. and i almost blind he can hardly distinguish objects in the backyard of a child by his second sentence for murder his gangrenous legs heritage and doctors forecast he won't need crosstrees much longer in a wheelchair because. you're preparing the billabong mr.

a suicide nobody even the most zealous euthanasia supporters ever said that they would do it themselves because they will become murderers of a good order from the point of view of russian legislation nor from the point of view of international law or ethnic norms can you even easier be justified. there is a huge debate on whether the terminal patients have the right to and their own life to escape chronic pain there is against euthanasia and they are the majority claim among other things that even hopeless cases can sometimes be irregular sleep healed but a voice from behind bars where miracles rarely happen may change that perspective. usual if they know that the rest of their lives will be suffering was the reason to prevent them from doing that especially of those sentenced to life in prison and a good many letters from these people they ask for death as life becomes unbearable conditions there are after all so why not one. fogy ninety

government says the e.u. can't control its own budget or own money at sensible. clearly this system isn't working i think this report makes very clear. but there is no surprise i mean from our point of view here you have the european union for sixteen years in a row they haven't signed off their own accounts because of auditor's you know so much fraud in their cars they can't even sign them off so it's not a surprise that you know there's a allegations of private jets being bought by certain country leaders surely that after receiving this kind of the u.s. aid the whole thing is a mess it needs discipline i think it's better done by nation states a bit of two thirds of the way she goes to non-poor countries i mean the biggest recipient is turkey which is doing pretty well economically and a lot goes missing i mean some is going to terrorist groups like hamas in palestine and you've got incredible figures like in mali where job creation scheme is costing

one point five million pounds for each individual they actually find a job for so there's a huge amount of waste here. u.s. senate investigation has found that investment giant goldman sachs misled clients to boost its profits through the housing bubble well to financial analysts next co-exists as the firm is a constant of pain even though since and so he needs they made a mockery of their client why anyone does business with goldman who they're calling a goldman fact i mean they're a fraud lloyd blankfein went down to the post office any switzer i'm always throughout he would get off scot free because he would prosecute me if this guy mcgrath risk to prosecute me it's a good national security and of course trying to assure them is going to change the law and make c.e.o. of wall street bankers legal always throws their own touchable it's worse than the mafia those guys are absolutely unpredictable they're

a cancer and you gotta purge of. course the kaiser reports in around twenty minutes time here on our team. if you're prepared to die for your country the last thing you would expect is a country to turn its back on you but for many veterans in georgia all the thanks they get an income of just dollars a month this country those are the reports from the soldiers trying to protest the failed through force of the war. there are memorials like these all over the world set up to honor all those who fought for their countries a sign of respect and remembrance but many of the veterans here in georgia feel that they have been completely forgotten captain davidson sansa went to war and has in the one nine hundred ninety s. a decorated officer he now has to survive just fifteen u.s.

dollars a month so i don't get a pension now and i won't until i'm sixty five but will i live to see that money we used to have some sort of support the hospital the free treatment social benefits but they gold got taken away in two thousand and five and i got fired in two thousand and three with no explanation whatsoever and lives in a house that he claims is unfit to live in yet to send his family away because he can't provide them with food. my house has no gas no running water i can't pay for any of it i can't get a job the only reason i'm still alive is because of my friends i live in what they can spare and is not alone is like more and more veterans in georgia feel the lack of support from their government but when they try to draw attention to it by calling one hundred shrike they were simply shut down some or even arrested according to officials for refusing to comply with police orders and being under

the influence of alcohol. the most outrage among veterans and the international media was that that those detained got slapped with a two hundred twenty five dollar fine not one of them has that kind of money. for the police came up break up our protest the president drove by he stopped load his window looked at us one hour later we were pushed out of the way like we were nothing but a dozen n.g.o.s and human rights groups demanded an official investigation into the actions of the police and those that are ins who have already sacrificed so much for the. and treat it largely ignores them are being drawn into this war as working out our journey about how to care screeners are about r t b c ga. her personal reports logs and analysis as a step like a web spotting dot com it's a taste of some of the stories we've got on the run up a former u.s. marine accused of you from the inside of the real effect of reference points in

includes me in the murder was a twenty three year old and with people shot himself on the big political opponents . figure let's take a whistle stop tour of wall street's eventual scandals with banks kinds of first stars businesses. you're washing business all cheese grater how do you what is welcome to the program the russian markets are slightly rebounding from yesterday's losses p.r.c.'s and my thanks plunged almost four percent advantage of trade on monday that's actually standard and poor's count the u.s. economic outlook from stable to negative and it worries that there's no political

will to tackle the country's spiraling threats and i've been i think jones and one percent down and the asian markets have been in the ready yesterday to today rather to and he's only ways outside the us here tell us more so piso both russians talks are over now well the latest trend in live goes on doesn't it. well yes moscow based on some bright spring sunshine today and things looking brighter on the markets here as well no they both be my six on the r.t.s. are following yesterday's quite large losses the bisect up by over one percent as the suns at the moment know the reason that they lost so heavily yesterday is just due to the following the announcement that s. and p. was going to downgrade america's rating team it via their outlook raising to negative reason is that russia is a traditionally conservative approach they traditionally. approach to

the to the markets any sign of any sign of danger and we see people taking their money out of the out of the russian markets as well because it is an emerging market when people get a sniff of any potential crisis the money comes out that's why we saw the large drops on the my sixty r.t.s. yesterday of course this home grading over america's outlook rating. everybody around the world the asian markets european markets russia and of course the dow jones out jones and the nasdaq they all took a big hit on monday we see russia starting to to regain some of that ground that was lost how is that going to really guess what camillus have had said they were predicting another turbulent day for the russian markets but of course too early to see the rushes out of the markets or out of the woods just yet of course if i could predict how they were going to end exactly well i wouldn't be doing this for a living piece about what caused this recent crisis in the u.s. . well the reason the s. and p.

made the decision to downgrade america's credit the outlook rating is this well this is the the conflicts the political conflicts between the republicans and the democrats over what they can to tell you about america's debt america has a colossal that's dead deficit plus a debt fourteen point five trillion dollars that's more than one hundred percent over the united states is g.d.p. so they really have a huge problem then it's the lack of an agreement between the political parties in america about how they can deal with a snow the white house currently running an expansive fiscal cliff policy in an attempt to get good growth now this is led to the republicans accusing them of of move which in the future of the united states the republicans want to see the type of switching cuts to public spending that we saw in the united kingdom as well as elsewhere no reason this affected the markets so heavily because it was

a recall them on the hope and it is a big deal a lowering of. that rating is the first time it was done to united states since the second world war since the attack on pearl harbor so and ted and s. and p. look to the situation in america and said well at the moment because of the it doesn't look like it's going to be any. the agreement between republicans and the democrats any time soon they can see the being in agreement till after the election next year so really they are really hard to do this because they can't get agreement. all right peter thank you very much indeed for that update we'll talk to you later. and that was asked his business that day join us for more next hour and of course you can always log on to our web site.

we have seen the damage it has done to our environment mark chemicals with the power props we do not want any more new g.m. molds. our core system is to say there was a cause more experience and i'm just i'm just appalled that that's allowed to go on in america. we are eating this unfortunately because we don't know what's in it and there's no labeling there for it being used like i'm aboard

for the experiment to be used as guinea pigs. oh now we have more questions than we have access to guards. like. to live in a country that don't understand that there's more violence in the streets of this country than there are in the streets in afghanistan or baghdad. one night in the spring to become a racist. but assuming this true.
