a rift within the nato is right this is the u.k. plans to send military advisors to libya which warns it could worsen the conflict is a ground operation on the cards for the u.k. more on that for me in london in just a moment. we are on one shot away from a full grown gracious but while the world's u.s. banks financial institutions really one of more impending dark times ahead of the concern that america does not enough dollars to solve itself. and with one in five young italians out who can view prospects of getting a job we report on how italy is facing
6:01 am
a lost generation. very warm this is our sea life from moscow libya's a foreign minister has criticized the u.k.'s plan to send offices to advise rebels on the ground saying it could prolong fighting britain's foreign minister claims that doesn't breach the un resolution which forbids sending in ground troops here and that reports from london. this does open a whole new level of operation in libya these are people who are there on the ground as opposed to forces who are imposing the no fly zone and it does the u.k. commitment to a conflict in libya russian's foreign minister has made it very clear that these are military advisers they are but they're not wearing uniforms according to him
6:02 am
and they are organizing rather than training or arming the rebel forces it's unclear what the difference in his view or indeed in the army is a victory in organizing and training is people here. on the ground in london i'll start talking about mission creep once more of course we saw this mission move from a no fly zone into directly targeting gadhafi to try to get rid of him and now we are seeing british forces going in to help the rebels in any way that they can and we're also seeing a division between the countries involved in this so it's the nature of the organization itself aeration but france's foreign minister has made it very clear that france does not in visits sending people in on the ground rules that there will be decision between the u.k. and. doing going forward and of course there's a lot of discussion about whether this is against the u.n. security council resolution that authorized the no fly zone in the first place they the wording of that resolution is that they can use any means to protect civilians
6:03 am
and now there's a lot of all humans about whether this will go against that resolution and of course the libyan foreign minutes we've heard him coming out coming out saying that this could significantly worsen the situation now john baron he's one of only thirteen u.k. m.p.'s against going into libya and he said that if there was a ground operation there would be huge public outcry here in the u.k. let's hear what he had to say about ground troops and about the the operation in libya in general i think the majority of people. fall and you didn't mention the night respect but you did someone the assumption was that terry paid them nothing or and that it had been because of the u.n. resolution ground troops and i think it would be on that resolution becoming apparent is that we now have the fly zone in effect becoming the force of the rebel
6:04 am
fighters and i question whether that was within the spirit of what was as it was originally to find of course what's happening here with military advisers being sent in to was not in any way constitutive ground invasion which. make that very clear but it certainly looks like the door it's slightly wide open now we're sending ground. and it's worth noting also people here in london are saying that the u.k. government has learned nothing from the conflicts in iraq and afghanistan that is going to apply in libya now campbell he's a very prominent liberal democrat politician said this sending of military advisers that the u.s. involvement in vietnam began with this very thing began with the sending in of military advice. like this is a new kind of thing and this is not the last we're going to be hearing this well the u.n. resolution was conceived as a way of safeguarding civilians in the bush campaign can buy these and they soon
6:05 am
could send in ground troops under the guise of humanitarian protection. we're increasingly and again you're in danger of getting into a twilight zone as far as the operation of the resolution is concerned already last week we saw a piece coming from david cameron from president sarkozy and president obama which appeared to speak and for tom and the one hundred percent we're not in there for regime change and the other hand we're not giving up until we get regime change no you can't say contradictory rationales in terms of an operation of this sort of nature you can't say that you're going on under strict terms that will commit to growing troops and you end up getting stopped committing troops in various forms guises after so many much adventures including iraq and elsewhere people want to know that there isn't going to be mission creep here that we have people going on on one promise on one pretext but then ready to expand the mission into all sorts
6:06 am
of other operations and so i think we need the u.n. security council to look afresh because after all as a resolution of the security council all the actions taken on to this resolution are meant to be reported to the security council to let an assessment be made at that level. where the deadlock in a fight scene is increasingly making nato members restless enough to want to use their presence but it's not the only country in american science. that resonates in say the u.s. has been secretly financing position in this area where the country is being torn apart by absence of protests human rights campaign is able to see hundred people have died in the lethal crackdowns the syrian president is listing decades old states of emergency to try and get protests and their calls for him to go to some analysts washington's backing of the opposition is further evidence of a wider to the. anger facing. but it goes way beyond libya effect i'm

working on a story at the moment getting the pentagon against china this is the big story in africa for the next fifty years i would say it starts in the beginning of the two thousand creation of the african union duffy was a very important in that in this mechanism it was a mechanism to give a political for ice to africa in terms of better unified africa in terms of political decisions in our of course economic integration then china's start investing much more than it was investing during the ninety ninety's over african at least thirty countries we have more than nine hundred projects all over africa and then came the reaction from the pentagon two thousand and seven two thousand and eight would be african command which has just lost its first african war when we launched the tomahawks three weeks ago against i guess tripoli basically so now

world economy produced a dreadful financial forecast we are one shark away from a full grown crisis critics say through the establishment of the international monetary fund and world bank america has positioned itself as an economic dr to the world using the institutions to retain global domination and fulfill the business interests of large corporations craving resources belonging to cash strapped countries what they do very very often pressured governments to what we call prosecco the economy is weaker than recession and they want them to quit spending or raise taxes there can be very very dangerous i mean you can. make your assertion or tale all too familiar to latin america the middle east. and most recently greece. where tens of thousands stormed the streets protesting

a ceiling of fourteen point three trillion dollars now the u.s. may want to consider investing in a bigger clock with a few more digits on the display our problems so bad the us president can't ignore it and the government can't seem to solve it we have to live with an army we have to reduce our deficit republicans are refused to support measures such as raising taxes on the rich or cutting defense spending we're approaching arsenal that on a par with the total g.d.p. of the country this is very serious because most economic research suggests that countries tend to decelerate in their growth and have more and more severe economic problems once the debt to g.d.p. ratio gets above about ninety percent or we're about to go through that level all eyes are now on the nation that sets the bar for others to see if it clean up its own bad debts at home. r.t. new york. on the other side of the atlantic it's the future generation which is the

6:21 am
years the u.s. has invested billions of dollars into the field bringing cheap energy to consumers chil deposits lie deep underground and unlike natural gas shale is widely available in the u.s. which means the country doesn't have to pay for imports. for. cheryl revolution high gas prices are the main question right now is how will the shale gas industry survive now the gas prices are one hundred two hundred fifty dollars which is four times less than they were say six years ago. despite that european countries are also looking at potential shale gas resources on their territory albeit with some hesitation brights now it's more whole then facts and we have really to think realistically about the do this source of energy we don't want to think of
6:22 am
the terms of cause in russia and america have thought another potential plus of shale of course is stopping countries dependence on russia which the blows most of europe with natural gas many are already saying that if shale deposits are found in europe most. of supplying to other countries what's been happening for the gazprom tower don't seem to be losing any sleep over there supposedly right because here's why. watching the situation and withing that local it's very viable but it will remain a local gas supply it's impossible to extract gas to last for long and if you look at the shale gas suppliers right now you'll see that most of them are losing money that dog or shale gas may be easily available but if the ballot meant does not come cheap. in order to get shale gas you must deal horizontally incessantly and that
6:23 am
means the profit margin of the process gets lost very fast. and though the above administration has hailed shale as an environmentally friendly all three of the natural gas recent studies have put this under question several scandals have already broken out in the us because of the thanks of shale gas developments only environment and people's health. chill gases extracted by hydro fracking that means special chemicals are added to the water to break up the rock formations the components of these chemicals are kept secret by the companies in the united states and claim it's a commercial secret that water laced with chemicals ends up in drinking water so shale gas development poses a serious threat to the environment and health in the united states we have outdone russian gas production two years ago but like any seeming miracle cure shale gas may be proved yet another falls and the injuries economy. more skull
