the chill in town who. joined. in moscow where they've been putting out their plans to stay so it's the russian foreign minister said. barack obama reaffirms the so-called special relationship on his first state visit to the u.k. but critics say he's just tightening his leash on london. plus the georgian opposition a rallies for a fourth day of protests against the president promising to show really to the.

bizarre to life from moscow where it's not just after two pm welcome to the program now a palestinian delegation is here in moscow seeking a backing for their alternative resolution to the arab israeli conflict fatah and hamas representatives have met with russia's foreign minister and outlined a plan to peace let's get more details on this now cross live to our cease to grow who's been visiting keeping ahead of all of these events for us. just what is the kind of question being saying at this point well they've been basically laying out their plans for a palestinian state. now. finally came to a. solution to work together in may the fourth in cairo they say in the past they they have had quite a turbulent history sometimes this is divisions between the two palestinian organizations they said it put those differences behind them and they're now willing to work together now they told. the. they'll be going to the

united nations to. put forward it and outline plan for statehood to the u.n. to get their fucking now if they have both organizations both fatah and hamas have said that they're willing to work together in the united government however hamas have said that they still are willing to to work in a government without statehood so if they do get at the recognize they should from the united nations then both sides are willing to work together now they also pointed out from their meeting with that they were very confident that russia would put forward their their full backing for a palestinian state the postman said that foreign minister lavrov had given his backing to them and hear from him right now. we're not planning to proclaim independence unilaterally so next september we're going to call on the u.n. to recognize a state and foreign minister sergei lavrov has reaffirmed russia's support for this

process. but we're still to hear any comment from mr lavrov concerning that statement from the the palestinian delegation that in moscow at the moment they say though that russia willing to give its full backing to a palestinian state. power in just infuriated israeli officials no way with this plan for an independent palestinian state a kind of forced him to backtrack somewhat when you have to address the israeli. reaction from the palestinian side from. well yes not a plan that was put forward by president bush slammed down and ceremoniously by benjamin netanyahu the israeli prime minister the he said that it was only workable and would leave israel without the ability to defend itself should they return to the one nine hundred sixty seven borders that was something that had been put forward is no fire hamas have said that they won't recognize the state of israel and fatah said that it's. remains and their view the the main stumbling block when

it comes to the. peace process taking any further steps in the region well the president's father is being put in a very awkward position because he said they should recognize a state of israel and. israel shouldn't have to negotiate with people that don't recognize it now this could put him in a very awkward position when it comes to the palestinian side putting forward their plans to the u.n. where american might be forced to vote against a palestinian state something that they'll be hoping to avoid but the palestinians who have been here in moscow have said that although they support so the. message of a return to nine hundred sixty seven borders it really is something a little bit too little too late. and it's not the first time the united states has made statements on the need to recognize palestine in its nineteen sixty seven

borders in any case this is a positive sign but unfortunately it is not enough because the initiative says nothing about jerusalem has been an indispensable part of palestinian lands occupied in rent in sixty seven years so you've been a key player in the middle east for most observant of all resolutions made by international institutions and above all the un. charter but i will latest on the talks thank you. both to make a breakthrough with peace talks in the middle east iraq obama is continuing his european tour the president in london on his first state visit to the u.k. where he'll the ten beatings with both a prime minister and queen he'll try to put pressure on david cameron on matters such as the european missile defense shield and of course afghanistan and turn cameron is hoping the president will indorse his controversial spending cuts. has more from the british capital. president obama will be staying here at buckingham palace as

a guest of the queen while he and prime minister david cameron plan to establish closer security ties between britain and the u.s. the idea is to create a joint national security strategy for it is a unique arrangement in which the u.s. will open up its highly secretive national security council to u.k. officials and it comes at a time when both countries admit they weren't prepared for the uprisings in the middle east and north africa it might not be easy for us there was this a britain cutting defense spending could tom its cooperation with the us and the two sides have been divided libya with the u.s. more reticent about its involvement than britain myself likes bill also be talking about afghanistan and the us will be trying to persuade the british army not to pull troops out later this year both countries see two thousand and fifteen as the target date for withdrawing troops terrorism also be on the agenda with the us asking the u.k. to support its tough line on pakistan harboring terrorists and to bomb it will be

asking cameron to do more to combat british muslim extremism the u.s. will also ask britain to reassure russia about the sizing of the missile defense shield in poland all in all the so-called special relationship between the u.s. and u.k. is far from over whatever that means to the rest of the world's parties or ever. still to come for you here are drug dealers in the russian capital city where. this is how some activists are trying to stop the madness spread in the country with waterproofed i don't know why you vigilantes are going. on whether it's even in line with the. thousands of protesters are rallying for several days now in georgia with the goal to overthrow president mikhail saakashvili opposition has vowed. take radical action by wednesday saying that the current regime must go why then russia has condemned the disposal of demonstrations with

tear gas on what bullets saying it violates fundamental human rights opposition parties claim elections are needed to stop what they're calling a criminal regime leading the country to disaster the main opposition leader or not say told r.t. people will continue to protest even if the government uses force. we have like. fighting. everything to like him including still just peace look at it we don't want to leave a country i know the seventies easy to use any kind of like that and if they will be share it if you believe what you believe it let them to see it why. it is that you can and i know it will. be seriously spike if you can't which is coming from i think that maybe every day every media receiving a nation get out of the work. place nevertheless.

our people and i'm sure. i did a nation really. and according to political expert. policies are not popular in georgia and it's already losing some more support among us. we apologize for that technical error there perhaps we've got a mouse somewhere cheering on the cables an hour or so ahead for you this hour here on our team back on terra for. free enough the space station has landed safely in present stand join us for all the details of mission control in moscow. with r.t. now internet trade in russia is set to double over the course of the next four

years some experts predict that the economy will contribute almost four percent to g.d.p. let's get some more details on this now and of course a lot of business and up to katrina so we're talking about a major the boom here on where well that's the hope you're right in that the potential is there for russia's online economy to grow more than double over the next four years but right now it's facing the issue of distrust which a lot of internet companies have faced in the past and are still continuing to face if they can overcome that issue and develop a very strong infrastructure then the will is there also they can really go a long way and also in about four hours time all eyes of course will be our new york to see how russian search engine yandex will perform and what's to be the world's largest technology i.p.o. for this year so an interesting business news next certainly is going to and will be seeing you in about twelve or thirteen minutes. but russian authorities are stepping up the war on drugs in the country but for some at the speed of progress

just isn't fast enough now activists are taking the fight into their own hands but it's lining some of them in trouble with the law that is maria for national reports . kate 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 across the globe and almost three hundred fifty men women and youngsters every day in russia and some of their own introversion the battle against the threat pays its customers they arranged to meet alleged drug dealers and once they have satisfied as suspect is a drug pusher they serve them a black mark and leave them red faced. people have to know their enemies would be quite as people will be afraid to go out next time because next time police may be there. these guys aren't alone in rushing there and conventional methods of

fighting against drugs their colleagues from the drug free city movement have been accused of torture in attics after they'd used handcuffs to force them to keep their habit they've also marked drug dealers houses to shame them in the community . it is our uprising against the drug dealers do you think it's better to sit at home and watch how the drug dealers will be killing you we managed to unite our forces and declare war to the drug dealers. sociologists a mob justice occurs when people become disillusioned by official efforts but the public taking the law into its own hands is an unwelcome trend growth in the us and our border there are a lot of enthusiastic who are striving to eradicate this horrible evil by any means possible but the women 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 morden russia vast amounts of money has been blown on

reducing drug demand and treating addicts for sadistic so just getting more and more gloomy. this is how some moscow activists are trying to stop the madness threaten the country with waterproof di they must do as they say will have to hide from the public for at least three weeks some are skeptical about their methods are others even accuse them of prerogatives but the antidrug it didn't is argue their form of justice is warthe it if it helps save at least one lot. more if not in our party moscow. now most of the heroin used by addicts here in russia is trafficked from afghanistan and pakistan now what are caught up with it's all about anti drug cheap to find out what's been done to stem the narcotics trade. people are just happy with conferences or in this campaign because it is the easier part of the taking gun we have been talking about it all over the world in all the

conferences if you have to hit this menace it is the same thing to catch a thief you have to calculate informants. be there and this thing will go. hard that is what we are doing and the support there comes from the international community the countries which are destined for this drug are feeling the heat of it they must do things more emphatically and in 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 years the question is it has introduced a drug it hasn't in the united states of america is there in a while for the last almost seventy dia there's so much of forces as they do to do their drugs production there it has not so what can stand alone go on to something . you can watch

the full interview with the head of pakistan's anti drug force in about fifteen minutes time right here on c.n.n. let's turn our attention to that of a libya where the libyan capital of what today to the heaviest nato shelling there since the beginning of the international campaign tripoli reports three people were killed and dozens injured during twenty minutes of strikes the main target appears to have been a colonel gadhafi his compound nato 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. and announce their decision to deploy helicopters to escalate. strike. now iran has announced its planning to impose sanctions against twenty six u.s. officials for violating human rights the iranian parliament has accused them of escalating terrorism and drug trafficking professor says that the government wants to put an end to what it claims is u.s.

lawlessness in the region but i think the view really in tehran is that the united states and its allies including members of the you are basically the countries that are why they are doing human rights more than any other country in the world they're constantly waging wars in afghanistan and iraq and now in libya. killing and murdering hundreds of thousands of people in addition to that for example the siege on gaza which is the illegal and prior barrick and where the ordinary women and children are made to suffer and it is being done with the support of the united states and the you so basically what the iranians want to do is they want to break this culture where the americans and the europeans constantly as if they are the center of the wall there's a they are more civilized than others whereas in reality the harm that they've been causing to the world is unprecedented i think that the world is important not the actual sanctions themselves it is breaking this this year old centric model that

has been imposed upon the west and the rest of the world. without a lie from moscow let's get to some other news in brief for you this hour roadside bombs exploded in southern afghanistan killing twenty and wounding another twenty explosion took place in kandahar i was in the province of kandahar during the morning rush hour all of this as local laborers were just heading to work there was no immediate claim of responsibility for the blast and it is the latest in a series of attacks in the country at least a dozen people have been killed over the past week alone. the ash cloud from the erupting icelandic volcano is causing further disruption to air travel as it sweeps over europe more than two hundred delays and cancellations have been reported in parts of scandinavia ireland and scotland while the threat planes over the services in england follows saturday's eruption of iceland's most active volcano the largest such event in one hundred years in the atmosphere effects visibility and kind of clogged engines so it makes it dangerous to fly crews remain they'll be
