the children of each religion. but you know who to put you. to mexico tells you that even. though it's no wonder matosi. in serbia look he's available in most klinsmann's regency. holes of hard rock obama says the u.s. will locate part of its missile shield in poland urging russia to get on board despite moscow's objections to the plan. lawyers for a former bosnian serb general right cold blooded says he accepts seconds of ill against the extradition to the war crimes tribunal in the hague is ahead likely to succeed and we bring you a first airborne from the village where he was captured. the day wristed mazas says in the stores an opposition leaders see the government's routing of the families of dissidents more main missing after the violent repression of last week's protests. and a light at the end of the tunnel for people in gaza and egypt opens up mortar crossing
9:01 pm
and in the for your blockade of the palestinian territories. five am in moscow matras are joining us the news desk good to have you with us here on r t our top story russia should be part of a missile defense shield in europe according to the u.s. president speaking in poland barack obama reiterated the u.s. is not giving up on plans to site some of its rockets and planes in a country close to russia's borders as it all has more from warsaw. it has become quite a conflicting picture here in warsaw because on one hand you have barack obama talking about this new stable and friendly level of relations between russia and the united states and both him and president come out all speak have said that it's very possible that russia will be part of
9:02 pm
a future joint anti missile defense system in europe but then on the other hand barack obama has just confirmed washington's the plans to quit an air base here and poland on its land which would service. military transport planes and f. sixteen fighter jets and also more importantly for poles to hal's short range interceptor missiles by twenty eighteen now all this comes after another meeting between barack obama and the russia's president the need to be good if at the g eight summit in france the two leaders also discussed a future possible joint anti missile defense system and seems to agree that it should work in the interests of all sides in fact the a.m.d. issue itself is of the sensitive one for moscow for years it was the biggest stumbling points in the relations between russia and the united states so now it's really unclear of the purpose of a strong military presence by the united states curin and especially to moscow
9:03 pm
since it's been saying that this country is under no direct threat from any of its neighbors so now many analysts are saying that if washington war it wants to work together with russia that it has to provide legal guarantees to moscow but it's under no threat at this point they're talking about sharing early warning information and other radar information which would be a step forward but before they can get there before they can get to a shared system russia need to be reassured that the system is not aimed at it and again nato and the united states need to make a joint statement to russia saying that this is to me is not aimed at this. system is no danger to you it's focused on dangers and threats from middle east not from russians so it's quite a conflict in picture indeed because there's definite positive tendencies when it comes to communication but the accents. in the picture. radio host and author
9:04 pm
steven lamb in cells are t. that russia's concerns on the u.s. missile defense system are well founded america's energy missile defense system is known as the defense of the us which is understand this is a lot of sense of system isn't a tax system it would in america has the money statements close the russians at war it is a big one a way to intercept russia's response before they even knew he so inflict as much damages gospel but again i scratch my head of ac is it possible that american leaders are salutes saying that they want a war with russia i simply can't conceive of their actually ever know we have a bunch of lunatics you know places in this country i don't want anything. at the g eight summit world leaders have discussed the arab uprisings with a particular focus on the situation in libya they've released a joint statement calling for colonel gadhafi to step down immediately saying he's
9:05 pm
lost legitimacy russia has increased pressure on the libyan leader by endorsing the communique but also says it's upping efforts to mediate a cease fire but also hopes its ties with both sides in the conflict will make it an ideal position to make progress r.t. spoke exclusively with a representative of the rebels to find out what they hope to do with the country and for the first of all it's a point sound that asked to leave it becomes a democratic state will concede to observe all the agreements and required by international law the transitional council will be working for a not similar over a year after the country's liberates its we have a road map plan that for sees the creation of a national congress which will be elected by all libyan people and will pull my commission which will create a constituent and it will be voted on in a national referendum we hope this will take no more than a year or if you will bring you an extended interview with rebel leader abdel julio on sunday four am g.m.t. repeating throughout the day. nato jets have had
9:06 pm
a number of targets in libya's capital tripoli including a compound owned by khadafi maher all men visiting professor of international relations at bill kent university in turkey tells r t russia's mediation may help but believes the alliance wants to carry on through with its campaign to the end. but the rebels feel they have the support of the nato countries some are believe some of the arab states actually have a british and much interest in. communion and i suspect unless countries decided they were might flee next month also to achieve a military victory but major countries may decide perhaps we'll have some kind of compromise in russia to act as a mediation but i suspect that the moment trees the aim of the nation needs they've said gadhafi has. to go where can you can to say it's true or death for him maybe death is more likely put more the less we brought a close to his options which makes interviews very very difficult to imagine.
9:07 pm
coming away in a few minutes we'll look at whether some recent catastrophes are making more people think about the future i think we're ok the world in this weekend there were four billion years in the sun. but it will be ok people on the streets of new york a fair bothered by the picture writes. an article many think is threatening to mankind global warming argue travels to antartica to see if they caught it with the world's coldest climate may be getting hot under the collar. but first former bosnian serb army general ratko mulatto she's waiting for a court to decide whether he'll be extradited to the hague in serbia few have been left indifferent by his arrest with reaction ranging from jubilance to outrage or he's carrying as are about visited the serbian village was finally tracked down. well we did manage to talk to some of the people of course it was saturday and out
9:08 pm
quite early in the morning when we made our trip to the village itself was a credibly small very sleepy lots of people gardening and basically the only thing that was odd it was the large amount of journalists and the number of policemen that were standing outside the house where a former bosnian general that cottage was actually arrested and you could feel that the people of that village were not very happy with the amount of journalists present they weren't very keen to talk to them but we did manage to speak to one woman who was one of a lot of his neighbor. can lodge was arrested no one had the slightest idea he was being that his brother lives in his hands and didn't know him very well tended to get a new man appeared in the hands he was wearing a cap and a new jury jacket in those meetings with difficulty as though he's had a stroke we had no idea who the man was on to the police arrived pinions are of course divided after the arrest. and to talk
9:09 pm
a little bit more about what his arrest means for their serbian people i'm joined live by mr alexander who is a political analyst here in belgrade thank you so much for talking to us now what is his arrest what does it mean for the people of serbia are they happy about it are they not happy about it. because they don't first of all. feel. that serve. the second thing is they don't think that any of those promises made to discover truly come into play. still it's just another sort of a national humiliation. is intentional being. they mention promises or presume you're referring to the promises of membership that was given to serbia for the actual people to see a membership really matter. it might have several years ago the thing is it's it's become an old and tired story the more people. listen about it the less they're
9:10 pm
actually includes them the production we believe because all they're seeing is any money that comes in from the outside winds up in the pockets of a very few people most of the politicians say hey you know of course i understand that many people here in serbia are very dissatisfied with the tribe you know and don't actually believe it can be objective absolutely everything that's suppose been done so far shows that choose a tribunal just set up lame exclusively one side bad guys were paid twenty years ago they were the serbs and the hague tribunal is there to justify western policy here thanks us we are the real culprits. on our facebook page you can always find latest updates on the story than first hand accounts from our correspondents remember what was interested in your opinion on the stories we're covering so why don and have your say they were asking viewers what the arrest of ride home roddick's means for about a victory for justice or the betrayal of
9:11 pm
a country's hero but on to facebook dot com slash are teenagers and have yourself. it's easy to get. these. thousands have taken to the streets of georgia's capital protesting the governments of violent break up of peaceful rallies two days ago they held a minute of silence commemorating victims of the crackdown whose number they claim is being played down by officials protesters also adopted a statement in which the dispersal was called an illegal operation of intimidation . promised to gather again on sunday earlier my colleague rory sushi spoke with
9:12 pm
r.t. zaraah for who was covering the events in tbilisi. the opposition have taken to the streets again this time their main focus isn't on ousting successfully protesting against the violence that he's a wednesday's crack as he said at the time the deployment of the police didn't come as a surprise to any of us who believe the main part in an area we needed there was going to be some form of intervention in the scale of the police operation is really about the police in one of your earlier reports you sort of there were many more police and they were protesting the discrepancy in numbers was he. protesters in the thousands and many of them were peaceful and also of the silver evolution this is an older generation of demonstrators here fighting against pensions rising food prices and when the police operation turned up and there they were in their thousands in a. very very quick question now whether the operation was justified whether it was just. that amount of force certainly many people on the ground we all felt that it
9:13 pm
was and it was very chaotic a lot of injuries were sustained it's very hard to gauge an accurate figure on this and this is he said the protesters taking to the streets again because they're deeply unhappy with the way the situation was handled and the ensuing events after the arsenal of so when you talk about the chaos that ensued what did you see when you were with the police batons or was it based or spray or what were you saying oh they turned up and i said at the time it really felt like witnessing a moderate muslims a bustle seemed they lined the streets on both sides as the street outside the main parliament building so they had the protesters and police around and there were thousands of them they had their own materials they were beating on is very very aggressive and in the space of a couple of minutes. the opposition leader about possible negotiations a couple of minutes later they were in the crowds and like i said has and see those take us everywhere they were rubber bullets like the five percent. because i didn't use a one of you or of course one of my colleagues marty espanol was
9:14 pm
a victim of the violent yes the spanish correspondent at the time he got hit by one of the bullets as he was trying to get out of that scene and many of the journalists were in fact injured a lot of colleagues so the chances of getting injured in this but when you saw that the methods of violence being used by the police what kind of injuries were people sustaining this is very aggressive they were walking into the crowds and just basically grabbing anyone that they could that was in front of them in the genesis of the war and here in the area when when it kicks off you need to get out of there pretty sharpish because they're not going to discriminate you know a young journalist so they were just in there and it was extremely chaotic it's hard to get accurate information is a lot of people still trying to track down relatives friends and family that they had they knew turned out of the station and they're not able to find where they are now because it is coming out. it is very hard to get an accurate reading on that and. witnessing it it seems extremely releasing and we know that there nic rest is saying the numbers of people in hospital and. we saw many more injuries and mostly
9:15 pm
certainly the number for the people that we see is much. george's opposition says the government is staging a witch hunt against everyone who took part in the protests speaking exclusively with r.t. opposition leader nino burjanadze says many of those speaking out against president saakashvili get detained or even disappear. but we know a little for people who aren't you know it will have been arrested and government is giving us any information about them. unfortunately with this if they're not suited. to more. persons have fallen and the break that is people are fighting here is the key to until this and then carpet full of. people for all of them otherwise it's impossible to imagine that the force that will air in the. air raid and special forces and special department they can find them you know that people i beat in the jail in the police. ready to lead this we
9:16 pm
are receiving this information you can see my security detail he says cool way or just the bits i mean it in the jail and it was it said hello to she police. just to tell us. that we have for you not police. and said with some room as a few people working police something to do so the basic kind of stories are coming to police to know it's intended and it is very quick since today we are receiving information that some of the people who believe these who killed before and couldn't find. any of the police entered and they arrested mazas system one. can always follow how events in georgia unfold on our website now logline find out how critics say the prosecution of the persecution of opposition members is growing beyond reason after one protester who threw a chocolate bar at president saakashvili was given three months in jail this and
9:17 pm
much more at r.t. dot com. egypt has ended a four year blockade of the gaza strip creating an opening to the outside world for more than a million and a half palestinians imposed in two thousand and seven after hamas came to power the closure was aimed at weakening the party the crossing which will be free of visas are restrictions for everyone except men eighteen to forty when able palestinians to travel more freely for medical study and business purposes but as our policy reports israelis fear the move will lead to an increase in terror attacks. this is egypt's border with gaza a place where for years the gates were shut more often then opened only the most extreme humanitarian cases were lit through which meant no more than three hundred people a day but wilder her mother was not one of them last year she died from cancer of the stomach she had tried desperately for months to leave gaza for chemotherapy treatment abroad but was never able to get the permission she needed to leave. and

rockets and snipers from gaza city but out of care of any meaning when we hear their first with a falling down we have to run and take their place somewhere i said there with that i thought border of all the keyboard cell there of everyone in here the whole area there are just last month a sixteen year old boy was killed when a car some rocket hit the school bus he was traveling home in people who live here are afraid that what will happen next is that more weapons will find their way into the hands of palestinian militants and ultimately be used. against the jewish state can you still say that if they go they'll be all pretty freely a lot for him. really. the guys that are in the market now will only be you know there is a munitions. they really have much smaller the implications of which are becoming clearer by the day i'm standing from eighty five kilometers away from gaza but it will be a grad missiles fired from them has hit the outskirts of the city these radio me is

not you think we're building society responsibly the bottom line is with lives and our planet on the line we can always strive to do better. riding out the hours news will we see the icy glaciers of our planet's coldest car to turn into green valleys this is currently being tackled by antarctic scientists as our teens sean thomas reports. each week pull out of new job hikes to the billings homes and go glacier on king's george island to measure twenty nine different markers. by doing so he can record exactly how the glacier changes each year and it seems that glaciers in antarctica are getting smaller yet. the factors are glaziers are changing in size point search engine climates right now we know that since the middle of or the end of the nineteenth century the majority of glass years are receding it means there's
9:25 pm
a general warming or climate antarctica provides a unique opportunity where scientists can get a firsthand look at how this warming trend affects the local ecosystem but the greater amount of fresh water is coming from the land of the sea which forms the freshwater layer on the surface of the sea water fresh water is lighter so there is some problems with mixing of the water coral which could possibly influences the structure of. plankton zooplankton and krill are the main source of food for the majority of life in antarctica clearly over the last thirty years in this region the amount of ice which is critical for crewel survival in the wintertime has declined that means that the area may not support the amount of cruel in the future that it has supported in the past penguin species i believe penguins and chinstrap penguins are declining in this region principally due to
9:26 pm
that decline in coral even though the overall global trend is pointing to what is in fact global warning some scientists are saying that we are living between ice ages and this is all part of a natural cycle in fact there is some evidence to suggest that we're at the beginning of the next cooling trend. the mean indicator on the glass here is the equilibrium lie in altitude it's the altitude where the accumulates the minds of snow equals the melted their minds if this altitude gets higher it means that the climate is getting warmer and if the altitude gets lor it means that the climate is getting colder since two thousand and six this altitude keeps getting lower. and while scientists have been keeping track of how the glaciers have been reacting to changes in the environment they say it is just one part of a much larger system but we have to keep in mind we don't target situation where climate change is in the same way all over the planet it's somewhere it's getting warmer some where it's getting colder and some where there are no changes atoll at
9:27 pm
the same time which tendency occurs in which area is also changing so is the climate here and right now is constant in the future this can also change though not all scientists agree on the levels of climate change most believe that it is becoming increasingly more important to monitor what is happening on our southern most cantonment antarctica is a truly spectacular place it is changing rapidly and more knowledge about what is changing and why can only help all of us understand all the areas of the planet that are going to change in the future so we might have a chance of being prepared for whatever comes down the line in antarctica sean thomas. be back with a recap of our top stories in a few minutes stay with us here on our.
