very welcome you are watching our see it is four am in moscow russia says it hopes to help prevent further civilian casualties and leave it through a new die look at its foreign minister sergei lavrov told the libyan prime minister that all sides stepped in accordance with the u.n. mandate is they hope for a peaceful resolution artie's ivory bennett's has the story. in terms of what concrete support russia can actually provide in reaching a peaceful resolution to this conflict so again lavrov russia's foreign minister has offered to send observers to help monitor a cease fire deal between the rebel forces and get that these troops in telephone conversation he had with libya's prime minister al baghdadi al mahmoudi at the behest of the libyan government following his announcement it now was ready to reach a ceasefire agreement with the rebels this is

a position that russia has advocated continuously during this conflict as the peaceful resolution to it taking it into the political realm this is something that's so gay lover of champion of the russian nato summit earlier this month in berlin for this to happen he said that all sides in this conflict including the coalition forces must one of the un security council resolutions regarding libya so that arms him partly on the no fly zone today russia is offering concrete support to help monitor a peace deal and ceasefire to help take this conflict into the political realm. on the ground in libya the past american predator drone strikes have reportedly destroyed rocket launchers belonging to gadhafi is forces near the strategic coastal city of misrata rebels say at least thirty six people have been killed there cheering fierce exchanges with government forces over the weekend the reports come despite colonel gadhafi has claimed that his troops held their following to misrata and has retreated from the area human rights groups warn that gadhafi is

seven weeks siege on this right and left over a thousand dead and the fifty on the part of a humanitarian crisis meanwhile nato airstrikes are aiming to look at the chances by government troops across much of the rest of the country where the civil war has reached a stalemate as fighting continues many fear the countries involved in there leaving intervention may face a severe backlash at home. if nicolas sarkozy hoped intervening in libya and the oil free calls would be used to support. hilarity is backfired he's now by far the most presidents in the history of france's fifth republic according to the latest opinion polls the main beneficiary has been marine le pen as you know head of the national front party he's expected to knock him out of next year's presidential election because he wants pledge france will never again kill people in africa the pen told me he's broken that promise so that this will be seen as

a cost colonial reaction by france where behaving like a well still eastman deciding is bad and who's good the president's policies a myriad of former colleagues one inflexible personal style x. finance minister. lift the ruling party this month admitting they called to work together for human rights minister rehman yes they has quit to sarkozy let colonel give that we use france she said as a match to wipe the blood off his feet by hosting him in paris now he's hunting the same man down sarkozy also sacked his integration advisor for disagreeing with him i've directed man that man told r.t. the president doesn't know how to compromise. there's no place for twentieth century colonialism to be but there should always be room for negotiation it's to leave nicolas sarkozy with few friends just when he needs them it's become

a lonely life inside the presidential palace but mr sarkozy will tell your political opponents pulling apart is for policy even for well allies like nobody now talk of his serial. to fill plans work with the president for over seventeen years the former premier fears libya turning into another afghanistan a deeply unpopular war with no clear deadline we cannot go in any country without knowing when we will go out i think. listen that we did not come from afghanistan in its global diplomacy it's the same problem. france is facing criticism for what some see as heavy handed intervention in the ivory coast the result is a presidency exposed mort at home and abroad very good sounds more like a monarchical republic trailing both slippin and the socialists in his bid for

reelection in twenty twelve sarkozy looks on likely to. leaked memos from boys as clean. willing is to make his policies even more extreme than usual r.t. paris. britain france and italy this week announced a plan to sound calm but advisors interleave believe things some just speculation that it's the opening act to a ground operation there but journalist. thinks it's living out an important player definitely china is part of this equation that's worrying washington it's a rather more than european union leaders definitely one of only as a look at khartoum to see chinese investment in africa and get out he was one person who for all its privatization and later suddenly coming back to the fold he still didn't like african american defense network some people would say that china ironically has some colliding ambitions as it were when it comes to

libya because bahrain and saudi are currently in the throes of demonstrations not covered on western corporate media and ironically china needs a stable saudi arabia and bahrain for its own energy needs so u.s. interests and chinese interests are one in the same to a degree. experts at the international monetary fund project the north africa conflict could terrell to get another global economic downturn with devastating consequences for the u.s. . america's financial management is best defined by a nonstop boring binge see that cloth over there it's a running ticker of u.s. debt. will take a closer look at the dark financial forecast for america later this hour. well it's a year since millions of barrels of world spilled into the gulf of mexico causing

widespread environmental consequences and health problems to coastal residents but they were given a billion dollars to clean up the damage the people who are factors are left to struggle with worsening symptoms artie's going to chicken house story five million barrels of oil in combination with almost two million gallons of highly toxic chemical dispersants used to fight the oil spill a cocktail that contaminated not just the water in the gulf but found its way into people's blood a year after the disaster and environmental group tested the blood of dozens of cleanup workers as well as residents of coastal areas they found levels of benzene thirty six times higher than normal or for. are shaping truly want to work in the open a problem or even a. clayton matter and work as

a boat and you near he says he was in perfect health before he was exposed to the toxic chemicals in the guards now he's fighting a bouquet of illnesses. called a lecture military officials from clayton is not alone in his fight george price owns a small boat he already in louisiana perfectly healthy just a year ago he has lost thirty pounds in the last few months george was diagnosed with severe anaemia us earlier and must still hold of this story and will be you know you really know dr michael robbie chom who's been practicing medicine in louisiana for forty years says he's never had such an influx of patients with respiratory and blood issues he fears the worst it's a distance treatment or his for causing robbie chan is one of a few doctors who is outspoken about golf coast residents same times connection with the toxic chemicals that they've been exposed to many other doctors refuse to

recognize the cause as dr robert shaw says either because they don't have the necessary training or they don't want to be called a court. requires an environmental justice group polled residents in several coastal communities almost half said they had experienced health problems like coughing skin and eye irritation or headaches that are consistent with common symptoms of chemical exposure it's very clear when you look at the ingredients both of which is considered so. it is considered as where there are a hazardous material total with the ingredients in the toxic this person's and when you mix those together it actually creates a substance or the arms were toxic and these are exactly the types of chemicals that are truly literally in people's blood many of these back to gulf coast residents and bill's involved in. cleanup of the gulf say they're alone in their fight with the consequences of last year disaster marine biologists are saying it's

going to take at least twenty years for the gulf ecosystem to recover president obama signed the country's environmental agency to investigate health effects of the spill but many gulf coast residents are sure the agency will do its best to sweep the findings under the rug i'm going to straight out reporting from washington our. professor richard steiner who is a marine conservation specialist says a small percentage of well has been recovered but the operation will have little effect there is a playbook that governments and their oil industry use in major oil spills and that is to understate the size understate the impact and overstate the affected list of their response at exactly what the u.s. administration has done throughout the b.p. disaster is what the oil industry has done and the truth of the matter is this was a new normal us release of a toxic substance in a productive coastal system the damage was extensive it will be with us for years

unfortunately if there's no effective way to respond well to a major release of oil in a marine environment they only recovered about three percent of the total volume of oil that escaped their containment efforts. because the concerns of the gulf of mexico oil spill are likely to stay and haunt the area for years to come is the case with another man made disaster twenty five years old the legacy of trouble is there to remind the world of the world's nuclear catastrophe and it's three or four times the exclusion zone. and it's gotten to people for some hundred title ways while those as developed countries rushed to keep up with technology people and poorest states are left to dig through obsolete and a printing pressure to survive. and it's been a major breakthrough in the fight against terrorism in russia over the last week the country's security forces killed two notorious extremists in the north caucuses

both had links to al qaida and were believed to be behind many deadly attacks in russia as archie's medina korchnoi reports. russia's north caucasus witnessed a number of successful anti terror operations last sunday a key militants leader is that i believe john up was killed in that is that russia's unteach or is committee says that the most wanted man. has personally point of what is on the past the hand of militants in that is done in the last year now it's also believed that village on up was the moved in almost every terror attack that happened in the region and most also linked to the most school not trouble makes last year he was among the four terrorists that were killed a week ago and that is does lead to hailed the operation a success that the militants already understands the language will force. you to get the militants are willing to engage in the region. to lay down with.

peace with. every committed sunni moodysson terrorist attacks they know you understand the language of force mean one and nothing a taurus terrorists figure was killed a saudi militant known as was soon identified as the chief al qaida agent in the north caucasus he was also christie to drive the militants as a absolute religious authority as well as an influential field commander despite the strength of high profile success russia's security forces still say there is no evidence that russia's most wanted terrorist martyr has been killed hopes could be eliminated one of the operations in english a terror were shattered when d.n.a. tests found no presence of him among the dead meanwhile he has claimed responsibility for a number of terror attacks that were russia enclosing the moscow metro between suicide strikes and the bombing of the capital a main airport still there is no clear information of just where russia's most

wanted terrorists might be hiding in the north caucasus. almost more of the special forces. terry crackdown in dagestan on our website and also reports on how the suspects in the recent matter of lost in the better russian capital of work captured on camera but it tells the footage. they are found the world worried about a new economic crisis brewing and pointing fingers that those responsible they say and rest of the middle east combined with europe's auto economy and massive u.s. worrying that could signal a new global downturn and. i reports washington risks losing its financial status. and you will spring gathering about the 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 often pressure governments to cut spending or raise taxes there can be very very dangerous i mean it could slip back into recession recession we're tail all too familiar to latin america the middle east. and most recently greece. where tens of thousands stormed the streets protesting austerity measures public spending cuts and tax hikes. as the largest financial contributor washington also wields the largest voting power at the i.m.f. the fairly i read it is run properly by the us treasury department with some input

from the european country there right there tells you most of the problem this is supposed to you know one hundred eighty something countries. it's run by just a handful or maybe just one and american has always served as president of the world bank since its creation in one nine hundred forty four but now with its own backyard in disarray america is hardly in a position to hand out financial advice to others in two thousand and eleven america's financial management is best defined by a nonstop borrowing binge see the talk over there it's a running ticker of u.s. debt which has surpassed 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 a problem so that the u.s. president can't ignore it and the government can't seem to solve it we have to live

within our means we have to reduce our deficit republicans have refused to support measures such as raising taxes on the rich we're cutting defense spending 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. or party new york. when wednesday the european union are asked member states for extra funding even though hard pressed nations are cutting back to the bone at home it wants over one hundred thirty troop in europe to run itself next year finance ministers find that hard to swallow in britain there are calls for a reality check one european m.p. told us that brussels can't even get its existing budget under control. 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 there 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 an allegations of private jets being bought by certain country leaders surely that after receiving this kind of the way that the whole thing is a mess it needs discipline i think it's better done by nation states but you know i think the british people i want to go to earth is going on where money is being thrown away whether it's through the e.u. or through the u.k. it need international aid projects. get our days around the clock on everything we're covering here at our you dot com let me just show you some what else we've got lined up on the website to get our chief coverage of the easter sunday celebrations that are russia's main cathedral as christians around the world mark their most terribly day also explore what is salutes like russia style and

also. please rogers movers and shakers president that it gets down to reuse university of media. you tube channel i am pleased. but u.s. consumer appetite fuels thousands of jobs in the developing world but the payback is a legacy of pollution when high tide good past their best firms are using countries like india as a dumping ground. it's the sound americans love to hear the sound of the latest laptop or the newest snap book studies show that these days the useful life span of a computer is only two years and every day americans dump their junk in the hope of keeping up with the joneses telling up to

a total of three million tons of electronic waste every year but where does it all go. welcome to ceylon for a predominantly muslim mostly poverty stricken area of east l.a. where thousands of indians come to turn trash into what they see as a tiny treasure. and more of the economy and i was going to say this man. that's how i mean by living muhammad is honest thirty two years old and has been tearing apart this trash for ten years in a d.v. good goods worth with these four hundred to five hundred split between friends and can sell the raw materials and make about a dollar a day unlike regular trash that can simply be tossed away in many developed countries including parts of the u.s. electronic waste must be sent to a special collection agency that is supposed to responsibly recycle the parts however while it can cost these agencies anywhere from fifteen to thirty dollars to

properly recycle a computer they can actually make the same amount if they ship it to a developing country like india were eager buyers think they can turn a profit on the goods deli is fast becoming one of the biggest anyways dumping sites in the world of trash from developed countries comes here to india for those with few options for survival hope to cash in on this job and even though it's illegal under the basil convention to ship hazardous material to india companies define the junk as second hand goods or mixed metals to customs officials to get away with it many countries saying that they need to sit in home computers because they feel it's. often. i wouldn't go there in the country but what they get in exchange for that is through the truck ravi agarwal is the director of toxic select a group dedicated to protecting migrant workers from the dangers of electronic waste and workers have been of the putting strongest suits exposing them.

it's a reality most of these workers know all too well but for them it's a dirty job at least for now gives them a means to survive i know what they do is not good for my head. nor the job to have to do something with the horror that those with no choices are sometimes forced to accept either r t new delhi india. but subjects here on some of today's world news opposition sources and through quite a few people have been killed during new clashes between n.t. government protesters and the family before the correspondences the unrest began when security forces opened fire at the weekend on one us at the funerals of both spilled and earlier clashes violence has escalated in recent days even very present also looked at the tacky small states of emergency. opposition officials and again one hundred get to allow the president to leave polish saturday style while giving

him immunity from prosecution they also object to a course that would let the country's parliament which is dominated by presidents loyalists to reject his resignation thousands of protesters in the capital sanaa are demanding early up to not so late to step down immediately and and he's thirty two year old ruled consul first else traces have seen around one hundred thirty people killed. several hundred people have marched through the central tokyo in another way of protests against me quite how up most of protesters demanded a full switch to clean natural energy sources demonstrations against atomic energy have become regular into groups full of the quake and tsunami which damaged the fukushima power plant causing radiation leaks. from their own subtle the japanese nuclear crisis the unthinkable was that fukushima could become the next

true novel the twenty fifth anniversary which is coming up this tuesday but as our cheese and i see the show was the passing years haven't made the world's most infamous exclusion zone any safer. this still remains the world's biggest manmade nuclear disaster and it happened because of a failed experiment when the employees at the george w. station tried to bring the reactor to a temporary stop and the experiment failed and resulted in an explosion the whole area around the lawns of thirty kilometer radius was contaminated some parts of belarus and everywhere across the european continent traces of radiation were felt even reaching the eastern coast the united states now this is still remains a historical landmark still some people trying to draw parallels with fukushima accident nowadays but many experts agree that the accidents have been completely different not only in the causes of the disaster but also in the immediate aftermath because the levels of radiation which were detected injured in that you

know area twenty five years ago were still much higher than the ones that. are right now ukraine has managed to persuade several world countries to invest over five hundred million euros into building a new circle for this which would last one hundred years it was safeguard the chernobyl reactor from meeting more radiation to the atmosphere so indeed it's twenty five years old with the legacy of the leaves on and the chernobyl story still making the headlines everywhere across the world but it's absolutely horrifying to be in the exclusion zone i've been a regular visits of the since i say two thousand five more over a recently went for there for a week to film a fresh documentary which obviously was would be able to see on monday and walking through these dead empty streets always gives me a creepy feeling despite that i've been there more than a dozen times the area is completely deserted and just thinking that this was once a communist paradise a role model city for those who are living and working at the chernobyl nuclear

power station now it's a completely deserted and lifeless this feeling is of course a very frightful and horrifying indeed this area will never be inhabited again because the fallout period of many nuclear particles. can reach up to twenty thousand years and. we're just looking at the debts out of. the exclusion zone in general you realize how costly how costly a man's mistakes can be and that is definitely the main purpose of the exclusion zone right now to remind the world that such mistakes must be made again and if there are reporting there and. i don't have that from a crisis within nine months i am closing the reactor complex protective and her company nuclear power experts agree and please explain why the idea of maybe a little two on. the first estimate that they can build the six months i only have to remind you of how to crawl. before we had

a first quarter because and now the for we have a second cycle because it's something jerry easy to do don't need to also take a lot longer than the six months because the dorm is over the fuel needs to be removed and it is a very very complex operation and even. if he could you could come out together believe the radiation levels around fukushima the new cars station are sufficiently high to keep people out for also a very long time i think you'll be able to compare that for this happening now in. unless you would remove the first half meter tall shortstops so you always have higher radiation levels in the surroundings that are so high that people will not be able to live there for quite a long time. so with r t because we get inside tell the truth when sophie allegedly we can leaks the whistle blow up bradley manning formerly you think you
