likely to meet monday's night's deadline for completing their. companies a point to be made a start but it is most important. that we have more on that in our business bulletin i think it's. a very warm welcome to you this is r.t. now live from moscow now the war crimes court is requesting a rest once for colonel gadhafi and two other senior libyan officials for crimes against humanity it comes as the head of britain's armed forces says nato must intensify its military campaign in libya with direct attacks against the regime. has more on this from london. seems that this is a u.n. resolution that has been really stretched beyond recognition and that's not according to me that's according to various members of parliament that i've spoken to various antiwar groups they say that this is not what the u.n.
11:02 am
resolution was intended to do although of course in the defense of this kind of action the people who are proposing us are saying what he himself is a direct threats to his own people so the aim of this escalation which will target infrastructure and we're not clear what infrastructure actually means but certainly it could include things like bridges power stations water supplies things that would put the libyan people significantly on the back foot for the next ten years while those kinds of things are we built the the aim of this escalation is to target colonel gadhafi which does smack of regime change of course we've also seen the international criminal court requests for its judges to issue arrest warrants to three people one of them is of course colonel gadhafi himself the other another one is his second eldest son who of course was educated here in london and how widely been seen as the best chance for a negotiated peace with colonel gadhafi regime and the other man is to see who is
11:03 am
brother in law and the head of the intelligence services now the chief prosecutor is alleging in a statement that he made that these people were directly involved in attacking civilians shooting at demonstrators and shelling various things among them funeral processions and what's going to happen now is that the judge is going to evaluate that evidence we think that's going to take around four weeks and they're going to decide whether to confirm those charges and issue international arrest warrants which would put his son and his brother in law on the international wanted list simple time is to that debate in parliament there will be a process held outside downing street to try to bring members of parliament attention to the plight of libyans antiwar demonstrators will be calling for an immediate cessation. the intervention we've seen a poll that was done for the daily mail newspaper that shows that seven out of ten britons fear that libya could turn into another iraq that process will also try to
11:04 am
draw attention to the plight of what people are calling thousands of refugees who are running away from the astronauts who are being ignored completely by nato according to them. according of london well let's hear more of what russia's foreign minister had to say about this whole situation in libya so he left office adamant that the time for talking is now for an immediate end to the violence. in the system is if you so we are interested in immediately stopping the bloodshed in libya so that in the interest of the libyan people as well as libya's neighbors and the whole international community the process returns to a political course and talks on how to build a new libya can begin as well as realizing overdue reforms and we reiterate our stones that the u.n. security council's resolutions should be carried out strictly according to the mandates and that overstepping these as we see now which should stop. all independent journalist james corden says the plan to issue a khadafi arrest warrant suggests that justice is becoming
11:05 am
a political and military tool for the coalition in libya. it would be easy to dismiss the international criminal court's appeal for an arrest warrant for his crimes against humanity as that is something of a farce especially considering that the international criminal court's prosecutor's office now would miss that not a single member of that office actually bothered to step foot in investigate behinds against humanity with which he's charged but i think this is actually that's a very troubling precedence in the realm of international jurisprudence where we see the idea that for all intents and purposes nato geo political foreign policy can now be justified through dribble action in this international criminal court simply by fiat to create and so the ludicrous nature of the entire operation is exposed and i'm asked for all the see in that here is a humanitarian intervention that is now literally going to be bombing infrastructure for the libyan people on the basis of human intervention that's supposed to help the populace again it makes no sense on its face unless it's
11:06 am
understood that this is simply an attempt at regime change and it is now being supposedly justified through this very troubling president of an international criminal court being able to dictate what happens within the boundaries of a sovereign country so i think we'll see this president used as a way of basically allowing needle countries in nato hedging on interests through to dictate their foreign policy through this court. that was independent journalist james corbet right there while you are with r.t. and coming your way shortly how a sex scandal could upset europe's financial recovery the i.m.f. chief faces court over allegedly assaulting a hotel maid putting his influence on euro bailout talks and his french press presidency chance is right on the chopping block. and with some convinced we are rumbling towards getting we need the enterprising entrepreneur coming up with a twenty first century onset. all european finance ministers are likely to have to dig deep into their pockets to pay

for more help for bankrupting greece. that's what's finalize a package for portugal as they gather in process greece has already been bailed out by the e.u. and the i.m.f. but needs more cash and it's failing to grow things is expected to announce further austerity cuts if it wants to secure more desperately needed funds and over in portugal the crumbling economy there is now awaiting a seventy eight billion euro rescue package over the next three years all right across the border in spain which is suffering with record high unemployment levels protests against deep economic cuts time by authorities are terrified reports on the train the country could be next in line for a handout. first greece then. and now portugal as the year is things bailouts but a number there are now serious concerns that spain could be the next to topple protests throughout europe a clattering to the case even more taxpayers' money being plowed into rescuing
11:08 am
others. beautiful have done that on this. thing and. that is going to get him. going up might make somebody believe it was forty three percent of underplaying people is that everyone didn't like the whole labor market problem doing this no side of the thing i think that these are going to be. this is only. the women we will win this thing with we will be millions and if the year is things problems weren't enough there is now talk of greece defaulting on its loans even potentially accepting the year. and portugal's recent bailout is reported to be worth around seventy eight billion euro but spain is the euro zone's fulfill largest economy the different challenge altogether if it fails. if the situation happens the markets would not manage it
11:09 am
going out of. instead just the most catastrophic scenario for the e.u. what will the e.u. do i think and many experts share my opinion that the e.u. will do the utmost to avoid the scenario would any cost because spain is too big to fail so you. got a. big question now is just how much longer can the usa continue bankrolling going bust as the spiraling debt crisis continues to escalate ministers are struggling to maintain a united front. the plan for financial survival for such countries aspiring would seriously injure the euro it could lead to the use of two currency zones in europe a strong group of countries using the euro and the rest not using it. thank you continued to play down speculation that would be the next round. problems continue. i did and that portugal possibly it is
11:10 am
a mechanic do you think it's a real remains a very real threat and right now the european idea and the reality. of the stake. there. that. well the euro zone's recovery talks are taking somewhat of a bank seat to the trouble at the top of the international monetary fund chief has been charged with sexual assault. and will appear in a new york court later on monday after taking some medical tests he denies the allegations but it's clouding any hopes he had to become france's next president as french politics expert told us here at r.t. he wasn't going to announce his candidacy for the presidential elections and i think these allegations. as a huge blow for french socialists. saw him as. president sarkozy next year's presidential elections and i don't think this
11:11 am
president. kind of will even think of running for president because i think will prove extremely difficult to juggle allegations of sexual assault. and rape with a presidential campaign i think president sarkozy is an obvious candidate to benefit from from the scandal although he's a very poor the man with the lowest. rate in fact for any french president in the history of the fifth republic but i think this will benefit hugely as he will be able to hope that he will. he will reassure him give him confidence to tackle the presidential election. much more strength than the current situation for a. journalist and a beloved ambani there on how the sex assault allegations against the head of the

i.m.f. might affect the balance of power in french politics. israeli troops of killed at least sixteen people after opening fire on protesters marking the day that palestinians were displaced by the creation of a jewish state thousands of demonstrators trying to get into the country from syria lebanon and gaza clashes broke out on what's known as a mask day bright summer seven hundred thousand palestinians were forced out as israel was being established prime minister benjamin netanyahu said the country is determined to defend its sovereignty. from the most our center for arabs in israel told me earlier that it's time the international community stepped in. when we thought of all the borders of israel is what i don't have borders the very. thing all these areas and people have the right to you know according also to their. agreements. and all of the people that are living down.
11:13 am
and i think it's. of all times that their professional community would act and holders are disposable in such reaction to nonviolent demonstrations that is i think the standouts and then the risk of communities where in any violation of rivertown law is taking place but there are some communities that can give me great i'm happy that the international community for example is acting against a regime i think in the case of israel we see all over the historic double standards and i think it's very important to hold israel to the international community standouts on that. you know like we are already over forty years of accumulation of all of the occupied palestinian territories sixty three years without the solution for that if you g.'s problem that i've been created all of the in for period so when you talk about that arsenal community the international community have responsibility i think in consideration that the creation of the

state of his diary was done by the u.n. i think it's of all time that the u.n. i'm going to rational community. israeli public under israeli policy makers who decide what they want they want one state solution solution but they can't hold three million people and they will keep a sharon without making decision what actually is that i don't want. that's for palestinians in gaza say they're being forced to spying for israel just to get access to it and medicines and food sources paula reports for them it's a matter of basic survival. the latest weapon of war targeting the sick and the hopeless and denying them health care and yes they become soldiers for the other side. i needed urgent surgery which couldn't be done here in gaza i had to get to jerusalem but when i arrived at the emirates border crossing i was arrested by the israeli security service they brought me into a building for questioning he kept me there from ten in the morning until six in
11:15 am
the evening. the payoff is simple become an informer and get a permit to leave gaza for medical care in israel jordan or the palestinian respond or refuse and face the health risks and it's not a casual operation but one which is highly planned and targeted involving senior israeli intelligence officers according to the man who says he was put under severe pressure to collaborate. during those long hours colonel washee from the law said try to bargain with me he said that if i refused i would go blind he said back to goals and without permission to get to jerusalem for eye surgery. or some stories familiar to run your own dozens of similar cases cross his disk each month it's all been our station physicians for human rights represent patients from gaza whose permits to leave for medical treatment have been delayed or rejected by israel he says ever since i must took over gaza in two thousand and seven many of the roughly a thousand people who apply each month to leave gaza for health care outside are
11:16 am
turned down sometimes. for medical care is a different life or death. whatever they can. use this very sensitive situation to recruit people but these really government denies of taking advantage of the situation and rubbish is the claims as nonsense people who have been refused entry for security reasons have to explain. and find a reason why they weren't allowed in politically clear the numbers speak for themselves eighteen thousand gazans in two thousand and three and entered israel for medical treatment is the allegation that all eighteen thousand are working for israeli security and simply ludicrous palestinian informers potentially provide important information for the israeli army but spying for israel is seen as treason
11:17 am
by palestinians and is punishable by death hamas also accuses israel of using social networking sites like facebook to access the private information of gazans harasses the israeli army then blackmails those gazans of innocently published information about their friends and family online as well but some are why he refused to be swayed and paid the price. they said we've got to go there because i'd rather be sick i'm blowing skin cooperate with the israelis. the home of tech is out here as it was a miss closer to egypt but for me jackson president hosni mubarak now out of the picture palestinians believe there are more nervous israel will be seeking new tactics to oppose them that's why they think their recruitment of informers an invisible weapon but often the most damaging of all to militant movements is likely to remain a top priority for israeli intelligence policy r.t. israel. you can always i get more of what's happening all around the world of t.v.
