plant locals still living inside the twenty kilometer evacuation zone are being ordered to leave here as a relative being compared to the infamous exclusion zone around chernobyl which was established twenty five years ago but some who should have left but then the never did argues are going to go and find out why. the exclusion zone on the border between russia and belarus although it's more than a hundred kilometers from chernobyl it seems to have used radioactive fallout from the nuclear accident in there and you know eighty six people were voice to leave but not everybody has this used to be a thriving community of more than five thousand people all of the true mobile it was deemed unsuitable for living i did some hard with a very house in fact if you measure the radiation around here it's still several times higher than normal but just walked down the road and still people living all

around their area. at first glance rushed off looks like an ordinary village and most here live off what they grow in their gardens and a lifestyle that they keep up with the government says that to me from the animals fatten the local feed from contaminated land isn't safe to eat. but of course we're scared of the radiation and we simply can't afford to go anywhere else. according to the government anyone who is living in the exclusion zone isn't the equivalent housing outside it but actually getting it is a problem mikhail miller chair of who personally for the fire true noble is the mayor of the nearby town of numbers they call hidden it's the current system isn't working. there is a commission that values the housing of those people who want to leave and give the money for it but the money is so small those people wouldn't be able to afford

a house in most places around russia so many people choose to stay here. the cancer rate in the area has gone up way seven climb since chernobyl and the fact of the contamination may not have peaked yet. with in the first few years after chernobyl at least there were government programs to clean up local food supplies but now they're gradually coming to an end we're being forgotten about. the. holding his clinic doctor visits his relative a home eighty six year old husband died of cancer from hamley can permanent materials she says she plans to live out the rest of her life here. i was never given a chance to leave and now i'm too old to go anywhere else. but the world may be too late for anna to move but that he can still enjoy life without the shadow of radiation. either of her and never see beyond screeching.

it although very focused plant remains in crisis energy experts have told r.t. that tapan has little choice but to clean up and to carry on rely heavily on atomic power it's certainly a very serious accident it's the second most serious after chernobyl in the history of nuclear energy there have been releases of radioactive material into their environments and there have been evacuation i mean i think we one of the things when the likes of this probably don't we were trying to happen this year is that we need to look into these it certainly does seem to be details like a high level of pressure in one of the areas of prosper reactor number one weather event here are the later than they should of that buildup of pressure may have a side to the seals within the range of vessel which could have given the roof radio to material to to come out and i do say having been commentating for out there so i think the the speed of information coming out of japan has not been as

high as one would have hoped to tsushima they are getting cooling water into the sensors of the reactor but they haven't got the what's called culture where all the water inside directors are a liquid that means there will be escapes of radioactive material but they want to be able to start looking at a long term solution until they have the centers of those reactors brought under control and they can remove the seal the third biggest economy in the world doesn't have an awful lot of choices japan imports eighty four percent of its energy it's enormously dependent on imports of energy from the middle east and of course. russia and the former soviet union it's probably industries particularly finished it's pretty much use all of its coal and it doesn't have enormously valuable renewable reserves there. and with the nobles twenty fifth anniversary just two days away we're going to bring you plenty of coverage on what happened at the time and the consequences of a disaster that's laundry you'll also be able to catch an exclusive documentary on

that there has been no international investigative teams to investigate the nato bombings as well. involving collison is mounting the pressure on government forces in libya as the u.s. carries out its first predator drone strike asia times correspondent escobar told r.t. the military action in the country is nothing party u.s. led war under nato cover in the manes ok so don't these drones have a. two thousand and eight so they can make them to. civilians own friendly's this is obviously not true and they're coming back to that so. we have been target this is not a u.s. war. africa the african comment there was its first african war determine. by general carter which is the commander of africa and the rest which

but were some in the city of dearborn are divided are along the lines of two rules of law the constitution and the qur'an actually freedom of speech but i think it should be a little bit more strict was people they get to create problem he has every right to say what he wants to do what he wants this is america this is not the middle east but at least he should not hurt your feelings for some across the country the question is will freedom of speech incite violence. earlier this month in response to pastor terry jones actions more than a dozen people were killed in mazar e sharif in afghanistan here in dearborn it is about public safety pastor jones was refused a permit to protest at the mosque but was told he could protest elsewhere he should

a gadget that you're lusting after a girl as a g.p.s. but you are desperately yes you have no way to track where you're going without it basically you know maps become now sort of just not as great but an i phone and if she already have a phone course what was wrong with that but she needed my phone was an i phone i was at the awful story yesterday and it was almost a riot broke out of it i mean. what do you think of that i mean it's ridiculous actually why do you think americans are so i'll about their get it done i short attention spans. of money jack you. know you guys you know i hear you say i forgot what are you talking about everybody when it isn't fade away like you see these people right here when i drive because. every tourist type way so it is ok if we just say what everyone's doing it someone jumps off a bridge so ok to do it too. i mean it is what it is we don't seem to care why is

sixty years ago but it's only now that mining workers have started going full scale . literally gone underground to dig up. natural beauty reaches across russia's transfer call region and beneath it a wealth of natural resources bringing them to the surface is why abdullah and the crew from the by coal mining company are here in the economy. one of. the eastern side of the outcome coca-cola which is divided into three sectors in these areas we drew thirteen thousand regions in point in the first stage of this deposit. it's expected to take five years to get from the exploratory phase to full scale escalation of the twenty million tons of copper believed to be buried here and to get his crew are now has taken nearly six decades copper was first found here in one nine hundred forty nine but the lack of infrastructure and energy grid

escalation difficult there mining efforts start with of the soviet union still the work that began back then is the starting point of today this one was initially explored by soviet geologist and if you take a look at this group here you'll see whether modern day counterparts have dug to verify their findings to determine the viability and capability of escalating this mine. long ago that we need to develop this deposit with the absence of engineering energy transportation facilities and infrastructure made those mines impossible past delays and present challenges aren't deterring the work of investors or the hopes of local government. projects means more investments in new jobs but it will also provide additional tax revenues into the entire region and. new social programs will be launched some colleges warrant that full scale escalating well profitable could harm the environment the regional government and i call mining company have agreed on
