the old gravely returned example certainly the millstone who took some of the country house holiday in the bull tells the river the creek that used to feel the most acute in the world the ruben's regional. western ukraine marks a victory day with a vicious display of nationalism near nazis attacking veterans voicing slogans and cursing the soviet liberation force. libyan capital enjoys more nato air strikes overnight bombing runs on. the french president some harsh criticism back home. tetchy talks between the u.s. and china pay lip service to competition cooperation looks unlikely to stop america spending billions on defense aeration for the worst case scenario.

on air and online twenty four hours a day you're watching r.t. it was a day of remembrance that turned violent in western ukraine nationalists attacked veterans and their relatives on victory day people wearing sent george ribbons to commemorate world war two had them ripped off their clothing before riot police force pitched battles with you know not since. the events. the holiday for millions and street brawl for some and like most of the post soviet region on may the ninth this ukrainian city became a vicious display of neo nazis and. several thousand activists from radical nationalist parties block the entrance to red army soldiers cemeteries preventing war veterans from getting inside and paying tribute

to some in this part of ukraine do not see my knife as a reason to celebrate believing the soviet period to be worse than enduring nazi occupation the st george's ribbon is usually worn as a tradition on may the ninth to commemorate those who died in the great crash or to war but on this day in the west and ukrainian capital security all putting this on your lapel would have meant serious risk regardless of whether you're a veteran or not. if you look at the document the ribbons were forcibly ripped from the chests of those who were heading to the grave yards along with abuse of chances such as death to the mosque right nazi salutes hurling rocks and small barbs that is how involved mark made the ninth hero who hailed this picture and my brothers and my father deliver a show this line from the fascists but these people here do not let me come inside the century to lay flowers and he's great this is a disgrace. it's obscene surprised even the locals who had grown used to protest on

the three day these were the scenes from last year when nationalist wipe their feet on the red meat revenge. i spent thirteen years in detention in siberia my two brothers were killed it really could something like this had happened in a new country. their heroes are people who regarded worldwide as nasa collaborators replica shirts with the founders of the one nine hundred forty s. insurgent army stood on london in the months ahead which are a big hit here there are seen as freedom fighters even though for a while they fought alongside the nazi army until civilians jews and russians in a new some manner how the main. political parties deal with the thought of movements do they encourage them as we've seen in case you crane where step in mind nothing major has been elevated into status of a hero holder it appeared to be an anti russian protest but really it was a protest of the. ukrainian society in this case has to deal with and this is only

part of why i do keep the perception of the past is making waves in other former soviet states namely us as an arch is and glorifying nazi legions in the baltic states such as largely and the story of the danger is that people begin to forget what we fought for and what the veterans died for as we're seeing the reemergence of far right forces and nationalist forces that really in many sense resemble exactly the merge with hitler in the one hundred thirty such behavior is to only applies to the minority most people in this country still celebrate history with proper respect but the army seems you should definitely alert you crazy leadership especially after demands for revolution were clearly voiced by the angry mob let's see russia reporting from divorce in western ukraine. but for the vast majority of victory day it was a happy and poignant celebration or you can see how people across russia the events on our website to me dot com. what's your view on the hardest military parade in

modern russian history and the spectacular. display that followed believe. it was britain's right against the nazis and the many childhoods meets the evacuees forced to flee their homes during the second world that's called. the libyan capital tripoli has been hit by another heavy bombardment reports suggest at least eight airstrikes carried out by nato fighter jets. strikes targeting areas not. his compound. coalition forces also bombed the government building it was set to house in any case the children's welfare says it was the second strike. headquarters and violence escalating some members of the coalition base backlash. not least in france. president past losing popularity.

from imperialist racist murderer bill or ex to a song president sarkozy's party tried to and which lost his treatment of foreigners and its own people rapper sawyer duces the home of liberty galatz a fraternity is anything parts like that's pretty crazy societies white masculine and reach for them everyone else is a needs to be toward peace allies ation france has been condemned for targeting it's me groups such as illegally deporting rumor gypsies while its interior minister also labels muslims as a problem fraudsters responsible for securing the arrest of full on free coast leader laurent gbagbo france was also the first state to attack libya. cheese eating surrender monkeys some in the u.s. the french for their perceived fear of pointing now even american say the short war

hungry the land of common bare has become this blogger's saw its protesting the libyan walls been swamped with support from the united states to the middle east the major france. and. many people seeing what is going on very saying well why are you going there and on these people you know even though they're. nicolas sarkozy's the most unpopular president in the history of the. republic according to the latest polls france's bombing of libya has made him even more disliked as soon as you use force they will be careful. there is no such thing as a clean war and war is about killing people three in four voters think so because these presidents people say they are he's abused the u.n.

mandate on libya which allowed only the creation of a strict demilitarized area a guy. a no fly zone is enough of. expression to. express. we are going to. campaign even if new presidential elections aren't till next year fridge people and politicians already say sarkozy no longer represents them actually the difference is that it's not friends decided it's. still elected president sarkozy which again we call a general in the queue. to many the country of love. and the awful. growing numbers around the world france is no or very different kind of words don't you go see how it. has reportedly been using

depleted uranium bombs in libya later this hour an activist tells r.t. about the long lasting consequences it could have to prevent. heated uranium is a weapon of indiscriminate effect because of the impact what happens when the share of the round its target is explode and it has what's been described as aerosol effect of radioactive particles and you can't ever ensure that those particles will only affect military personnel that. means that they can indiscriminately affect civilians and that of course is illegal under international law some countries haven't yet recognized that is indeed you've seen on the websites the british government justifies the continued use but it's absolutely unacceptable if you're talking where it's an except where any particular talking about being there to

protect the civilians to use a form which will impact on them in so devastating a way it's absolutely shocking. a boat carrying around six hundred refugees a. libyan coast number there is not. this is reporting the ship broke apart aboard another vessel what's that sixteen rifles died from the. use of the orientals press corps for i have been drifting three weeks dillard's has denied the allegations but from. refugees. who fled into. these kind of events are chandeliers surprising to me you talking about the most sophisticated technological in the world and they would not be capable of finding some at sea while they are have operations. on

the coast of somalia where they can spot one simple bank in a city and they could not do that i highly doubt it so we don't get into details of the specifically in french this holiday surprise me but it's only logical humanitarian concerns are not on the agenda of the later charges and i can tell people flee to regimes that we have kept employees in the first place it's only a human reaction to a desperate situation and by bombing this country is not going to help on the contrary what we could do is help too. tunisia and how the egypt a democratic movement that would send a clear signal to the other countries but that is precisely not what we're doing what we do is very very fast with our armies but when it comes to rescue people. there's not. some law of nature there this isn't really politics. this is our

prayer and not people that are in the military in. the world to economic giants have ended the first day of talks that easing the strains in their relations or any areas in which china and the u.s. are struggling to find common ground beijing says washington is trying to stunt its growth record it back with criticism of china's human rights record that it's costing for following difficult negotiations. they say you should keep your friends close. and your enemies closer and as far as where china fed's perceptions continue to evolve at this year's u.s. china strategic economic dialogue an attempt by officials from both the u.s. and china i friendship we each recognize that our ability to work together is important to the overall health and stability of the global economy woman to be a friend of the people of china and the united states live in the same village

three kinds of you on the was. the purpose to open communication on concerns like the debt ceiling in the u.s. and the rate of currency appreciation in china and joint concerns about the environment we both have a great stake in curbing climate change and charting a clean and secure energy future currently china is the second highest producer in the world of renewable energy technology the u.s. ranks seventeenth in the overriding theme for day one of the us china strategic economic dialogue we talk respect and understanding but just because there is competition doesn't mean there can't be cooperation competition is not bad competition is healthy is good. this is the reason why i have held the view for so many years and continue to hold the view that a rising china is

a positive development it's a far cry from the dialogue of recent times were tough decision makers in the us have been told that an increased power means an increased threat one that will eventually need to be dealt with by war and the way to avoid this war i believe is going to require and we're going to be able to get away from it in any case some kind of arms race with cho it but china is going to keep building and improving its capabilities each year the pentagon comes out with this report military and security developments involving the people's republic of china the findings often use to intensify military spending we are now looking at a power in the western pacific that couldn't stand up to us or if there is a problem in response military spending is now more than the rest of the world combined six times more than china. as a result of u.s. debt has ballooned to more than fourteen trillion dollars much of that debt is

owned by china it's at a time when many of the countries neighborhoods look like this an urban areas like this still first sun including the mainstream media the military is often the first priority when it comes to spending beijing is rapidly modernizing its strategic nuclear forces and developing space weaponry china is developing ten raisa ballistic missiles some of which will be able to strike the continental united states but critics say the threat from china is not the people's liberation army the threat from china is its growing economic might like every economist you talk to in washington now it is the same the u. one soon is going to be. the actual currency of the world maybe by two thousand and twenty so the economic policy of washington should lead and not the pentagon so for. and or follow on this day top leaders here on all fronts with this message building mutual trust and respect will help us to solve shared problems but that

view may change again when it comes time to play defense to secure more money and more power for the military in washington christine freeze out r.t. . the battle of wills between washington and beijing where the escalators china grows on the world stage that's the view of running gloucester political economist and author. i think that there's a lot of honeyed freezes being bandied about it's important for viewers to understand that there are escalating geo political n.g.o.s anomic tensions between the u.s. and china and those tensions are rooted in profound shifts in the world economy and there's now intensifying in scrambling competition for energy supplies and raw material so this is really the backdrop for these talks and the u.s. is seeking to reassert its gone insane china is seeking to carve out

a growing geo political geo economic space in the world system but china is posing a real strategic challenge and in the department of defense surveys or you look at the weekly links you see that the u.s. imperialism leadership definitely regards china as a strategic competitor the united states is seeking to preserve its dominance in the world which is based on you know war is and super exploitation in the control over people's lives in china is an emerging to power which as i said has a certain strategy but right now that strategy doesn't believe them to direct showdown with the united states and i think when the u.s. talks about china the u.s. mainstream media and the leadership obama clinton their statements about being back in asia or us being involved in an international struggle a battle for influence as clinton is said with china this is all about preserving their great power interest at the expense of the people of the world. uncovering

those standards in hi-fi nuts kaiser and co-host stacy head that assessed the price of food to the heinz u.s. federal reserve system is a quick preview of the kaiser reports coming in next. the way to do that you see is the first take a large stick and poke out your eye there now you're half blind now look at the statistics in front of you and don't count wages and look at the tips treasury inflation protected securities and anytime they start moving up use taxpayer money to buy a whole bunch in the open market to keep the price artificially low and then go in front of congress with one eye pulled out and say well the tips are not going up and wages are going up there for no inflation congress where we gotta keep rates artificially low which of course without rates being higher there is no incentive to save and without savings there is no capital and without capital there is no

capitalism. no money. pakistan has promised to investigate its failure to track down osama bin laden despite the fact he was hiding a plan from the country's capital province to use of killing the military and intelligence services saying they're not the only ones responsible for those who checked his suggestions of importance and complicity to me in law his time in hiding that he was speaking off the us criticize pounced on the truth of the world's most wanted terrorist and. told them that insurgents have to leave washington also has a lot of explaining to do. the question really is what image are we sending to the rest of the world and where we stand on the deeper questions of the rule of law are we had nation that celebrates the killing of our enemy used without due process of law the end of world work she was marked by putting the most evil people on the face of the earth problem trial for the world to see the rule of law is the best

way to beat out justice not good did you actually justice there are questions now about whether it was. but it was a chill only one. you shoot both for him not to capture him but even if you captured and you execute him on sight these are real questions are for the us constitution these are real questions for international law i think there are questions that ask whether in trying to fight the terrorists the united states has subverted its own egos and in some sense let the terrorists win. there are some other international headlines this hour. the european union has imposed an arms embargo on syria on the government's crackdown on protesters and also froze the accounts of thirteen syrian officials in the news a round of traveling outside. the red cross or expressed its. humanitarian mission from entering the sudden since you know there are despite president bashar
