2:07 am
a nation to really be effective at the day like choosing to. according to political expert i mean a conference guess office release policies are not popular in georgia and he's already losing support among his elements. this of course of saakashvili has diminished drastically for several reasons well firstly the war was not of much for your ear in spite of the fact that while georgian population i'm not speaking even about georgian elite is not pro russian but the results of the war or not satisfactory for the for georgia secondly well the this economic situation the country is not is not good because in the beginning of his presidency the support of the west of the european union and the united states was rather big now it has diminished for several reasons again well there was crisis but also the policy of circus really is not wise and it is not that much supported in the west so while we

2:11 am
by but if they can overcome this and put in place a really good strong infrastructure for growth prospects for the sake of last of course later today we'll also see how yandex performs in new york and this is tipped to be the world's largest technology i.p.o. of the year so it could be an exciting day here oh we're certainly keeping our fingers crossed there for the economy and looking forward to seeing here in the studio with more business news thanks very much. now russian authorities are stepping out of the war on drugs in the country but for some the speed of progress just isn't fast enough activists are taking the fight into their own hands got its landing some of them in trouble with the law however the vigilantes say and justify the means if it helps save lives are reports. it said all is fair in love and war and perhaps even more say in the war on drugs drugs that killed two point five million people every year cross the globe and
2:12 am

2:13 am
watch how the drug dealers will be killing you we managed to unite our forces and declare war to the drug dealers. sociologists the mob just as occurs when people become disillusioned by official efforts of the public taking the law into its own hands is an unwelcome trend worthing for the border there are a lot of enthusiastic who are striving to eradicate this horrible evil by any means possible when their actions don't comply with the law the law is against them for sure we can eradicate this evil but only by legal methods there are over five million drug users in more than russia this number has almost doubled in the last decade alone vast amounts of money has been blown on reducing drive the mines and treating addicts persisted such is getting more and more gloomy. space's house the most gay activists are trying to stop the madness threaten the country with waterproof di they mock dealers they say will have to hide to the public for at
2:14 am
least three weeks some are skeptical about their methods others even accuse them of the goodies but the antidrug good judgment is all due their form of justice is war fit if it helps save at least one life. most. most of the heroin used by addicts and russians trafficked from of ghana stand on pakistan r t caught up with a song about its anti-drug chief to find out what's being done to stand in our cottage straight. people just happy with one princes over in this campaign because it is the easier part of the thing done we have been talking about it all over the world in all the conferences if you have heard this menace it is the same thing as said if you have to catch a thief you have. informants and hear them and this thing really. hit hard and that is what we are doing and the support that comes from the
2:15 am
international community is the countries which are destined for this drug feeling the heat off they must do things more emphatically and in order to favor numbers which is not happening at all i am blaming the international community not for doing enough if unity is he had been there for about fifty is the question is it has introduced a drug it hasn't you know students of america did in one of them for the last ten or so minutes give the so much your forces has a duty to use their drugs production there it has not so what can you stand alone do on the so-called. you know watch the full interview with the head of pakistan's anti-drug force in around fifteen minutes time here on our. the libyan capital has walked into the heaviest new year shelling there since the beginning of the international campaign tripoli reports three people were killed and dozens injured during twenty minutes
2:16 am
of strikes i mean target appears to be one of the office compound near aircraft have been firing on tripoli almost every night and attempts to destroy the military arsenal of the libyan leader the latest attack comes as france and u.k. announced their decision to deploy helicopters to escalate their strike power. syria has hit back at sanctions imposed on president bashar asad by the european union saying it will harm the syrian people european ministers have frozen assets assets and banned him from entering the e.u. the sanctions were in response to the violent crackdown on anti-government protest in syria human rights activists say over eight hundred people have been killed and thousands arrested since the uprisings began in march at the same meeting of the e.u. also tied in measures against iran to pressure it to abandon its nuclear program meanwhile the u.s. is also impose sanctions on the syrian president calling on him to leave the transition to democracy however middle east expert. believes it won't go as far as
2:17 am
the u.n. resolution similar to that imposed only be a series of much more complicated case because there are some other more important political actors in the region involved so i think the u.n. resolution is much further down the line if at all obviously i mean we have first israel we have lebanon we have iran involved it's also a question of who the people that might take over there is the internal dynamics of having religious minority in a sense being in control of the state in this case the other whites on the present . and what will happen to them if there is a sudden swing in any other direction basically the you can say that there is a certain inherent logic to sanctioning countries and that is that unless he actually starts to improve in a way the reward will be to remove sanctions or you basically. continue trying to up the ante by a ratcheting up of pressure and in the case of iran that we are just continuing
2:18 am
back. regardless of what's happening in syria the latest sanctions but if you're the ones that the you with iran's economy that is cutting it off from the financial system if you will that the world is having an effect on the iranian society and the economy at large but they were put in place primarily in order to affect iran's ability to acquire nuclear capability that might end up with a nuclear weapon and on that particular aspect i think they haven't had much of an effect yet now is equal to some of the stories from around the world the ash cloud from the erupting iceland you know is causing further disruption to air travel some flights remain grounded in scotland while a threat hangs over services in ireland and england it's all saturday's eruption of iceland's most active volcano the largest in one hundred years the ash in the atmosphere affects visibility and can clog engines making it too dangerous to fly fears remain there will be a repeat of last year's travel chaos when a different icelandic eruption closed much of europe's airspace for
