global news live in the center of moscow this is a hot seat now to palestinian factions in south korea recently forged ties as both fatah and hamas are in moscow seeking russia's backing for the creation of an independent palestinian state they met with the foreign minister sergei lavrov and map out that path towards the resolution of the arab israeli conflict he's drawn up by his following the visit. of delegation consisted of members of hamas and fatah those two organizations decided they were going to work together on the fourth of may they signed an agreement in cairo putting behind them a sometimes turbulent history between the two groups they said they've now put that behind them completely and a willing to work together in order to achieve a palestinian state and said that they will work together. a government of

a palestinian state now they're going to put forward these plans to the u.n. general assembly in september they met with their foreign minister sergey lavrov to tell him all of this and following that meeting me telling patients seemed happy for what they heard from mr lavrov that russia was ready to give the palestinian state a palestinian state their full backing. we're not planning to proclaim independence unilaterally 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 we have to hear. from the foreign ministry though to confirm what was said in that meeting israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu really slammed down proposals for a return to nine hundred sixty seven borders now the palestinian delegation that's been in moscow at the side of it said that they will never recognize the state of israel the delegates that have been here said that they still view israel as the

main stumbling block on the road to peace however both sides as it made up this delegation said that they were happy about mr obama putting forward. a plan that would see a return to nine hundred sixty seven borders however that didn't go far enough for them. it's not the first time the u.s. has made statements on the need to recognize palestine in its nine hundred sixty seven borders in any case this is a positive sign but unfortunately it's not enough because the initiative says nothing about jerusalem. which has been an indispensable part of the palestinian lands occupied in one thousand nine hundred so the usa being a key player in the middle east for just observing that be all resolutions made by international institutions and above all by the un what the latest us attempts to rekindle the peace process in the middle east seeming to be days in the water palestinian delegates from hamas and fatah here in moscow to put forward their

ideas to bring peace to the region. reporting right there one of the israeli prime minister has flatly denied that his state would return to the pre nine hundred sixty seven borders with the palestinians that was the solution that barack obama had been calling for twenty minutes netanyahu reaffirmed his position in front of the u.s. pro israeli lobby because ahead of his address to congress he said returning to pre nine hundred sixty seven borders would leave his country indefensible and he blamed the palestinians unwillingness to recognize the jewish state for the deadlock in a conflict a few days ago barack obama called on israel to accept the proposal backed by the u.n. e.u. and russia and israel met with the suggestion with heavy criticism as the deal would mean withdrawing from occupied palestinian territories right now let's get some more details on this on the middle east peace process and the role that washington is playing in it we'll talk to journalist and human rights activist our gideon spiro so we've seen tension develop between the u.s. and israel on the issue of borders between israelis and palestinians and that's

a bit unusual to see them going head to head using the obama administration is saying the president will keep pressing his vision upon netanyahu. where do you go. with a big disappointment. for . him you would draw the north. with long. united states. money with weapons and diplomacy. will not be over a thing it did i don't know did the side of the united states in order to push israel back from go to place an order to establish a palestinian state a viable state bulldozer sixty seven while you talk about washington and

financially funding israel given the military hardware but let's talk about this because when barack obama had made his call for the palestinian state he basically had to back pedal eye when he addressed the israeli lobby conference he really just backpedaled and try to save face there are some might say you think this is a chance that washington will one day get fed up pandering to the needs of israel. from what i can see from here washington is really almost totally and there are no. satisfied to these achievements and no pressure on this really. from here at least i was listening to the speech of obama. because food phrases and words not one word of criticism very disappointing. all right journalist and human rights

activist gideon spirit i was talking. so that's why we have a bit of a delay in our communications even afraid that's all the time we have for today gideon spiros journalist and human rights activists once again. by the american president is in london for the second day of his four nation european trip during his first state visit to be either kingdom obama met with the queen the head of talks with the prime minister on wednesday over a dialogue between the two sides could be strained following disagreements on key issues such as terrorism and foreign policy parties laurette is covering events 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 board 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 u.s. sources to say britain cutting defense spending could harm its cooperation with the u.s. on the two sides have been divided over libya with the u.s. more reticent about its impose more than britain might have liked they'll also be talking about afghanistan and the u.s. will be trying to persuade the british army nourse to pull troops out later this year both countries see two thousand and fifteen as the target date for withdrawing troops terrorism will also be on the agenda with the us asking the u.k. to support its tough line on pakistan harboring terrorists and tacoma will be asking cameron to do more to combat british muslim extremism the u.s. will also rest in to reassure russia about the sizing of the missile defense shield

to code it only knows the so-called special relationship between the u.s. and u.k. is far from over whatever that means for the rest of the world's. lore and the reporting from the british capital still ahead for you this hour here on our drug use and after the red faced goal vigilantes are getting in the face of russia's drug dealers forcing the threat of off the streets. to find out her recently return to space crew came back to earth with some unusual additions to that. a moscow courtis reduced to the prison sentence. from fourteen to thirteen years because of her. second conviction of the former you course head who was found guilty last year of stealing hundreds of tons of oil from his own company and laundering the proceeds of course he was already serving a prison term for embezzle money today's ruling means he'll will remain in prison until two thousand and sixteen his lawyers say they will go on to appeal the

verdict in the european court of human rights. ron has announced it's planning to impose sanctions against twenty six u.s. officials for violating human rights as comes as washington prepares to hit several foreign firms to be sanctioned for doing business with iran with the e.u. well with the e.u. rather already lining restrictive measures on tyrone over its nuclear program site and one hundred marandi it says iran wants to put an end to what it calls us a lot of sinners in the region 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 violating human rights more than any other country in the world they're constantly waging wars in afghanistan iraq and now in libya. killing and murdering hundreds of thousands of people in addition to that for example do you see john garza which is the illegal and barbaric where ordinary women and children

are made to suffer it is being done with the support of the united states in 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 world as if they are the more civilized than others whereas in reality the harm that they've been causing to the world is unprecedented i think that what is important not the actual sanctions themselves it is breaking this euro centric model that has been imposed upon the west and the rest of the world. with r.t. live from moscow now that her plans have launched their heaviest air attacks on libya's capital tripoli since the start of the coalition's campaign libyan officials say that three people were killed dozens were injured with the main target reported to be his compound. comes as france announced his decision to deploy helicopters to escalate their strike power moscow says the alliance acting

looking glass and. i don't see how it was all anything to leave your whole thing i don't know if you would be using one of. these against so we feel that division is just driven by evolution. you don't see me. in. for more on the libyan stalemate and the unrest in the arab world just log on to our web site that's r.t. tom here's a taste of some of the items we have lined up for you right now and the e.u. issues agrees a fresh ultimatum saying i think it's needs to step up the economic reforms that it's failing to meet its bailout obligations. and officials are leaving moscow dolphinarium to sink or swim lack of money and crumbling infrastructure mean that disabled children will lose out on a unique form of treatment more on that and many other stories odds and don't come

. well in georgia the opposition is determined to carry on with the rallies aimed at overthrowing president saakashvili thousands of mean massing on the streets of tbilisi for several days ocean the leader to step down resign they're pushing for early elections so stop what they say is a quote criminal regime and leading the country in say disaster police attempted a clamp down on the demonstrations using rubber bullets tear gas purchases fear that saakashvili may use all means possible to stay at the top of the opposition stresses they will continue their fight. now russian authorities are stepping up the war on drugs in the country but for some the speed of progress just isn't fast enough now the activists are taking the fight into their own hands but their actions are falling foul of the law that is american national reports. gates 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 almost three hundred fifty men women and youngsters every day in russia and some a point in their own control the battle against the threat tasers customers they arranged to meet alleged drug dealers and once the city's finest suspect is a drug pusher they serve them a black mark and leave them red faced. people have their enemies like people who've been freed to go out and spend because next time police may be there . these guys aren't alone in rushing their unconventional methods of fighting against drugs their colleagues from the drug free city movement happening queues of torture in addicts after they'd used handcuffs to force them to kick their habit they've also mocked 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 just as occurs when people become disillusioned by official afterwards 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 striving to eradicate this horrible evil by any means possible when 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 being blown on reducing drug demand and treating addicts for sadistic so just getting more and more blooming. this is how the moscow activists are try. going to stop the madness threatening the country with waterproofed i they must do as they say will have to hide to the public for at

least three weeks some are skeptical about their methods are others even accuse them of hooliganism but the antidrug vigilantes argue their form of justice is worth it if it helps save at least one life. grief notion r r t moscow. most of the heroin used by addicts here in russia or is trafficked from afghanistan and pakistan i see caught up with islam about this anti drug chief to find out what's being done so you stem the flow of narcotics. people are just happy with guns prince's awareness campaigns because it is the easier part of the thing that we have been talking about it all over the world in all the conferences if you were to hit this menace it is the same thing that said if he were to catch a thief you have probably read informants and quickly made it and this thing will go on and we had heart that is what we are doing and the support that comes from

the international community of the countries which are destined for this drug are feeling the heat of it they must do things more emphatically and then in twenty five 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 he has introduced a drug it hasn't in the united states of america did in a while islam for the last almost seven eight years the so much of forces. did use their drugs production there it has not so what can plug a stand alone do on the circle. and you can watch the full interview with the head of pakistan's anti-drug force in about ten minutes time right here on c.n.n. let's get some other international news from around the world this hour and an ass crowd from the erupting icelandic volcano is causing further disruption to air travel as it sweeps over europe two hundred to laze and cancellations every

special anniversary and they received the last ever u.s. . on its mission up there it brought some equipment slightly i assessed and then they waved goodbye to that for the last time and they've been up there for six months they're now back down safe on earth and all the people down there who've just received them in this step in kazakhstan will be trying to make sure that they receive a proper welcome back on earth that is. well in a few minutes for you to look at possible remedies for the afghan drug threat but first let's take a look at what's happening in business with you. oh and a very well welcome to the business update and all eyes are of course on young stocks just about to start trading in new york russia's web search market maker has raised one point three billion dollars in its i.p.o. well it's the largest float of an internet company since google bret's public in

two thousand and four seventeen times oversubscribed of stock was priced off the expected range is twenty five dollars per share so we'll see how trading will start a new yorker time past six possible time and once things get underway we'll be talking to the c.e.o. young that's light from last. about ten minutes time. ok let's take a look at how the markets are faring this hour while futures are still fluctuating this hour with lights with more than ninety nine dollars a barrel but have bounced back from some of their prisoners losses by trying to energy demands tatum although again in the u.s. dollar is limiting the rebound. let's take a look at how the stock markets are performing in the u.s. we u.s. markets are trading in the five as you can see how to buy or of course fall just seven percent rise in new home sales the dow jones is adding around three times

what the sound of the nasdaq is point two percent. and european shares continue their games with a metal prices supporting miners that would see around point six percent in the private that's point one percent the sour home one investor sentiment remains very dry one persistent concerns about the euro zone sovereign debt crisis. and here in moscow the markets are continue very gains after monday's major losses with theology is gaining nearly two percent a solid it's now have a look at some of the individual show moves on the my six energy majors among the main gains supported by stronger commodity prices gas brum is up around three tenths of just about three percent against more than one and a half percent i can start stop also on the rise with barry bonds around two percent and look like. ok and for more market analysis i'm joined by roland nash from garden capital sorrow and tell us more what's happening on the markets as we

can see today the markets all on the rise well it's been mostly down in the past month so what is the general sentiment in the markets it's nice to have the balance that we've seen today it's been a pretty awful last couple of weeks and so we've given up all of the gains that we've had so far this year and the markets. you know the markets of been looking for any kind of positive news what's happening in europe is really speaking i think everybody in the russian market will. right and how the markets reach the lowest level we can see them going any lower way in the near future but it's going to be based i really hope that we've we've reached the bottom. you know haven't given up again so far this year and i think that now we can really start going back to the gains that the russian market should be able to have with the with the oil price of oil prices still above one hundred bucks however it really doesn't really depend on russia depend on what's happening in europe and i'm afraid they've got

a lot of structural issues to deal with and i don't think i've been so far so i'm afraid we can sensibly right so where do you think the safe havens in russia starts with the current volatility is so wore out of the companies to watch one of the sectors to watch now well you know when everybody suddenly gets negative on the market at the same time trying to find a safe haven is pretty it's pretty tough actually everything tends to move in the same direction if i was going to say was any safe havens that is probably the liquid stocks that have a smaller group from the oil prices possible something like spare bank or you know invest into well it would allow you to be able to manage their credibility all right progress from there and i will thank you very much for your analysis. and in the news russia could cut its budget deficit by more than hot this year on its going to sell its quadrants us record all prices will also help boost investment and that's encouraged cheering prices. and you can leave we're

using actual revenues to cut the budget deficit so that's why this year we're planning to decrease the deficit from three point six percent down to one one point four percent this is possible that all is trading over one hundred five dollars per barrel. oil revenue will also be used for investment. ok about some items to business but i will have more for you in last the last time so stay with us for news headlines next. the.
