we'll. bring you the latest in science and technology from. the future covering. the week's main news from outside the g eight leaders unite to call for colonel gadhafi to go as moscow moves to mediate a cease fire in libya. the u.s. expands its military presence in poland kolya head of its own missile defense shield which russia says could spark a new arms race. for georgian opposition and international observers call to listen to the quest to get a little independence day incredible tester's which left three people dead. and it's been announced today that the president of the upper class here objects

that fourth independence georgia has died in moscow aged sixty two. and. one there and online you're watching r.t. and this is our weekly news you're welcome to the program colonel gadhafi took a major blow at this week's g. eight summit in france as russia joined voices of nato allies calling on him to quit i think that his rule illegitimate discussed ways to broker peace and struggling euro currency was also on a critical list for the world's richest countries. and he said nothing. new world new ideas host france but that concept on the g eight table at a time when it looks like the old ways aren't working a war in libya on the front line with the euro crisis in the background leads to

questions like this will sarkozy be known as the man who saved tens of thousands of civilians and garcia will he be known as the man who promised to economic ruin in a never ending war in libya he must go g eight leaders agreed word for word in their declaration about gadhafi saying he has lost all legitimacy now it's understood behind closed doors there was harsh debate on the sidelines russia was asked to step in and broker a cease fire and accepted and will send an envoy and we are in touch with most lloyd's new forces in gaza and representatives of the buffy foods we haven't broken toys but do you think it's useful in any case because we're trying to make a place for approaches if you see any reasons for the escalation of violence which is still ongoing and we discussed it at the g eight nations says that we could not be regime has lost its legitimacy people didn't have the must step down russia's approach to interfering in the internal affairs of sovereign nations differs

dramatically from the west which appears eager to back some countries but not others and to just to intervene in libya it does not suit is intervening in bahrain those and those rational economic geopolitical and should not about unity missions g eight nations agreed a twenty billion dollars support package to arab nations have toppled autocratic regimes and are struggling to build so-called new democracies on the euro there were statements like this because of it is the euro easier everything to get interest in the future the euro will threaten europe as a whole so huge spending cuts continue in an attempt to prevent euro extinction so will the mission in libya and the spending of billions g. eight leaders. might have reached consensus on khadafi but can the west now afford to push pick and choose politics even further russia's deputy foreign minister claims a resolution on syria won't even be read let alone signed by russia after just

sastre in libya the question now what will happen to the rest of the arab world facing revolt for now only syria is a possible target with some g. eight leaders going as far to hint a u.n. resolution similar to libya could be an option if damascus doesn't back down something russia is more than likely to oppose reporting from the g. eight and you see now our team to beat france all of the nato jets intensifying their attacks against gadhafi investigative journalist sun suff says stopping the libyan here is not only interest the way it's going i think for nato is about to. begin to feel that they're preparing the ground for ground troops right to go already offices in offices and so on inside of you and you just feel that they're beginning to prepare the way i think ground troops but was originally specifically defending civilian targets civilians and cities and so on and now has become much

more offensive so the question is that the targeting of gadhafi compound a couple weeks ago the killing of assad and his grandchildren about where exactly is this going i think is a question that has to be asked and i think you get the feeling that this is beyond gadhafi this is much more about strategically placing your forces inside a situation inside a region which is undergoing nothing throwing more. money and you know rebels media has told r.t. that once gadhafi is gone there will be stickles to peace for interviews coming that way now it's time to here's some of the stuff bill has to say. army requirement is that number get up and the son should leave libya among those who served in the previous government but there are many refutable people with whom we are ready to have a dialogue so that they can become members of the executive bodies of the future libya it's colonel gadhafi who is nobbs got all of this in the first place will it prevents us from creating secure corridors for medicine and food supplies to those

in need once he stops being literal the prospect of a dialogue will open up through an intermediary. nato is boosting its military potential at the border with russia despite objections from moscow the u.s. has struck a deal to station fighter jets and poland but also house american interceptor missiles we can present this up to also saturday missiles which are part of the u.s. defense shield in place by twenty eighteen. has a record for a joint system but washington wants to separate the sashing can't sum it all fire them off and pressing expressed concern about its position me from says russia does reluctance to provide guarantees for its own security at stake. what sort of a border unless we reach a deal before twenty twenty and the u.s.

anti-missile system is finalized you could trigger a new arms race we have to get guarantee that this ystem is not aimed at us no one gave us any such guarantees but we're being told it's against some countries that pose a threat so when we ask you these countries are we keep silent then we are to these countries have dangerous missiles no they do not only has the missiles but russia has come to the conclusion is easy saying to us not a guarantee but you've got arms experts telling our americans what doctors to provide legally binding down to use on missile defense is only aimed at stalling towards a joint system. things divisions within washington. well they are talking about how to make this a joint system the question is what does joint mean 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 needs to be reassured that the system is not aimed at it and again the nato and the united states need to make a joint statement to russia saying that this system is not aimed at you this is tim is no danger to you it's focused on dangers and threats from middle east not from russia there is the obama administration which is very much wants a cooperative relationship on missile defense with russia and very much wants another arms control reduction agreement with russia certain republicans in the u.s. senate do not want those things so we have to make that clear distinction between with the ministration wants and what some members of the senate want so focusing on what the administration wants and what russia wants they both want cooperation on missile defense and they both want to move on to a new arms reduction agreement and given that i think there's enough common interest to move that forward. but the few minutes there are the russians who say enough is enough when it comes to drug prices. this is house the most

activists are trying to stop that madness threatening the country with warts approved i. said this and. that it will mark the this makes sure everyone knows who they are so it's on the right. a flash mob in washington has felt the full force of the war being forcibly arrested by police from dancing in public a guy with a jefferson memorial in the fonts of a band or dancing in the morning among those held were only see an american present i don't contest this is new slang to the ground by officers around me and there are two things now that an action is simply a school best thing that dancing groups say they were paying tribute to him as a tramp in the first amendment guarantees freedom actually flew from to join the peace treaty that is agreed to trial so now.

can you restate the. news today violence is once again flared up. these are the images the world has been seeing from the streets of canada. giant corporations rule today. thousands of georgians have made their anger nerd over this week's heavy handed response to government protests on thursday police used tear gas rubber bullets and water cannons against its own citizens and music two people were killed in the violence international observers went ga to investigate an excessive use of force their thoughts. with thousands of damocles closing in on all sides and angry protesters lashing out war cries to main street and civil e.c.

became a battleground. for cannons rubber bullets and tear gas to fight into still into the crowd many people were injured including a number of journalists are seizing spanish correspondent was among those caught in the hails the policemen appears ok they was very aggressive with the people they started it all the people they don't make any arms with nothing and then suddenly. the pain in my stomach and realize that it may be some kind of bullet it kind of bullet is rubber bullet and. i started. this a clue into the riot police didn't come as a surprise to any of us that it was the scale of the operation that was such a shock. disperse the crowds they were following me my friends with the song goal to chemists tennessee to have it in a thousand and seven protests that had also resulted in violence said police

presence this time with even greater and just as. the violence or the most shocking given the age of many of the demonstrators. there's been topped by some people who are still the revolution an older generation that only be in the crowd people struggling with like cousins and high food prices in the aftermath worried relatives and friends searched the hospitals for missing people. we told them we came to point fifty million aged between twenty and forty. and we don't know where they all come to. and they won't give us any information telling us to ask the police the numbers of people injured or arrested of priest extremely hard to kill. you know a lot of people who aren't you know who have been arrested in government giving advice and information about them there are now international calls for the

government to investigate violations of protest this human rights. freedom of speech many creators have paid a high price for trying to have their say and we have a little bit of it so i can't trust anyone anymore i'll never come to a protest rally again i just want to be safe and to live yet create this have once again taken to the streets despite wednesday's violence people here refusing to be silenced so i think the tbilisi. today the president. has in republic i should say has died so. the morning moscow he had been at the helm of the country sorenson from georgia cheap in two thousand and eight teams time bottles and sells. came to a moscow hospital last week following surgery it was reported but there he had

difficulties recovering from that surgery and earlier today it was announced that he had died. was elected to the presidency of our cars here in two thousand and five he led the country throughout these years up to now and through its defining moment in two thousand and eight when the country for the war of independence against neighboring georgia it won independence and. was our country's head when it did so so what now for the future of our cause here well for the next three months his vice president will take over the country until elections are held and the country chooses its next president. serbian police are on high alert ahead of a rally against the arrest of former bosnian serb army chief. he was captured on thursday after sixteen years on the run as we're waiting to hear when he will be sent to the hague on genocide charges which was indicted for war crimes including

the killing of almost eight thousand that was and it was many many ways as governor as our reports from belgrade reaction to his arrest has ranged from jubilance to outrage. official belgrade has called the capture of former bosnian general up on luggage a great thing for their country that sentiment has been echoed by many european officials but with serbia sights set so firmly on the chance of a potential e.u. membership and the billions of dollars worth of grant money that could come with it it seems that they are overlooking the wishes and feelings of the serbian people not a single person we have spoken to here in belgrade has said that they believe arresting a former general is a good thing or necessary for serbia to come to terms with its past many going as far as to say that the real criminal in this situation is the current president what is that it's for selling out his people. person chooses to believe he's the

biggest cruel. he's a serbian with a serbian blood he's our man he's a general right you could barely stand each visit parachuted into what they deem. the. people through. the ear of the give and give to them the right to critique to money you know what i mean so far belgrade has reacted quietly to the news of iraq and lunches arrests and potential extradition to the hague war crimes tribunal but a large rally is scheduled for later on tonight we are expecting thousands of people to gather outside the parliament building in the very heart of the serbian capital belgrade and of course looking back remembering previous rallies when a former leader of month project was arrested and extradited to the hague thousands of people took to the streets of the capital they are forced violently dispersed by riot police and many are fearing that this situation could repeat itself if the if

is in fact extradited to the hague thoughts as some experts believe the absence of this people on the disappointment that they have for their government. actually keeps them off the streets the thing is people have been so all disappointed about the outcomes of all these different demonstrations and unfortunately in serbia that there's lots of reasons to demonstrate over the years that the enthusiasm is dropping a little bit so i think millions of people are actually on to help but feel really trust anyone who actually calls them out into the street to demonstrate and they're also actually worried that the government should provoke progress in order to make it easier so this may be great pressure or that it already is so for that reason it's hard to say the enthusiasm is there but there's a lot of mystery a lot of mistrust even fourth opposition all originally official belgrade forbade

any public gatherings following the news of the monitors arrest fearing of course a repeat of the events of a few years ago when that entourage was arrested and extradited to the age of war crimes tribunals but it does seem that every action undertaken by official belgrade is aimed not at the people of this country but at those within the european union who do have the ability to open its doors for serbia but even with the arrest of rock on luggage and his potential extradition not everyone believes that serbia will finally get its dream e.u. membership. in the face of a narcotic so demick russia has been upping the ante in its fight against drug trafficking with strict laws on public awareness campaigns and producing mixed results and that's not enough for some parts of this group from national reports on the news it's making justice into that hands. eight 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 two hundred fifty men women and youngsters every day in russia and some are fighting their own can battle against the threat payson is customers they arranged to meet alleged drug dealers and once they use it is fine as suspect is a drug pusher they serve them a black mark and leave them red faced. who have to know their enemies would look like people will be free to go out next time police may be there. these guys are not alone in russian there and conventional methods of fighting against drugs their colleagues from the drug free city movement have been accused of torturing addicts after they used handcuffs to force them to kick their habit

they've also mocks drug dealers houses to shame them in the community. it is our uprising against the drug dealers do you think it is 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 efforts of the public taking the law into its own hands is an unwelcome trend berthing of the border there are a lot of enthusiastic striving to eradicate this horrible evil by any means possible the women actions don't comply with the law the law is against them it's very official we can eradicate this evil but only by legal methods the over five million drug users in more than russia passed amounts of money and loan on reducing drug demand and treating addicts a statistic so just getting more and more gloomy. this is how the activists

a try. to stop the madness threaten the country with warts approved by the mob do as they say will have to hide from the public for three weeks some are skeptical about their methods are others even accuse them of really getting what the answer dr be to them to argue their form of justice is worth it if it helps save at least one life. r.t. . for more on the way this hour including a look at what's hot in the frozen ocean. discovering the creatures that thrive in the should really see this planet. it's going to have a rocky few weeks between israel and its biggest ally the united states first person the promise said israel should whine the borders back to nine hundred sixty seven and prime minister netanyahu told the us congress that his country won't give up posting interpreters for arabs yahoo is the main obstacle to peace has gotten

a chance encounter reports on the likely given america's willingness to challenge its partner. president obama's calls for peace and the two state solution fell on deaf ears both with israelis many of whom the mere mentioning of going back to pretty nine hundred sixty seven border lines is unacceptable. so just. because you say it is larger exemption and with the palestinians who believe there is nothing but words in what the u.s. president has said is that a fraction of pressure on it you know the prime minister of israel or of israel's government how it's like crassus like things like it's very hopeless like we hear the right things kind of implementation addressing the powerful pro it's really lobby in washington president obama has made sure to reaffirm the no pressure would be put on israel to advance the process and he's proposed solution was because the

friend's advice cannot be imposed on the parties to the cards. no vote at the united nations will ever create an independent palestinian state and the united states will stand up against the first the single israel out at the united nations or in any international forum israel's legitimacy is not a matter for debate and only say the contradiction of words and deeds has been a constant source of global first racial about the us foreign policy in the middle east one example feel bomb administration has called these really settlement expansion illegitimate but when he came to actually voting at the un security council to condemn the settlement expansion is illegal the us veto the resolution the failure of the united states to deal effectively with the israel palestine the issue. of the double standard for we have actually apply the president made a very strong case that we should not tolerate civilian scream.

by their rulers we do nothing when the going israelis do all these things with. the cost of all the pretty hard in terms of our credibility and prestige internationally and that's not important as surveys suggest president obama's ratings in the muslim world are as low as ever experts say the inconsistency with which the u.s. reacted to different episodes of the arab uprising is to blame president obama's speech on thursday was seen as a way to reach out through the air wars and say the u.s. supports men and women of the street as opposed to suppressing. but it seems these words resulted in more confusion about u.s. policies particularly when it came to these really palestinian conflict when obama said what he said in the last speech for the arab world. most of the palestinians feel frustrated by the speech also i was reading in the. media

that they are also. so i don't know what exactly i don't know. speech president obama is facing pressure from both the international community that has long been suggesting that with a solution to nike's if the federal border lies as part of that solution and its ally israel we tried that proposal unrealistic president obama's attempts to please both the international community and israel seem to have resulted in yet another nonstarter in the mideast peace process i'm going to check our reporting for washington r.t. . plus more of today's international stories we're covering for you this hour. for nato airstrike in afghanistan's volatile hellbound province has left at least fourteen people dead the target was insurgents but instead civilian homes were struck for those insurgent attack on the u.s. marine base in the region on saturday elsewhere taliban suicide bombing in the north has killed a senior police chief in the front of others and nato troops the police commander was one of the leaders on the move in the months which forced against militants.

a regular experience all in the name of science. the main purpose of our trips around talk to carl is to establish a foundation for monitoring different species living on the bottom of the ocean we are studying the distribution of animals that live there and we are studying their nature each day during the short summer season as school makes multiple trips out to sea where they get a firsthand look at what's below the surface but i don't want to use case one in the same biological community stretches from a depth of five to almost fifty meters there are certain variations but mostly the picture is the same it's impossible to say anything now it's too early to draw any conclusions we've got too little information just one sectional view working out of the coastal waters of antarctica will not only help scientists identify the types of animals living here but by coming back over time they can study subtle changes in the environment and how the animals are affected by the changes in three to five years we will repeat hard it's a collection and we can establish whether there have been any changes some animals

might have gone and others me her place them we can establish why maybe there are some climatic changes that lead to changes among populations so it will indicate whether it's colder or warmer here what they come up with can at times seem a bit questionable if not simply messy while other times their catch is quite clear but in all cases important to their research so what is log and ships to russia what is then catalogued and still sometimes new discoveries are made constantly and with i'm cataloguing many new types of muscles my colleagues are doing that seem really we're always finding new and absolutely unknown species that are proving that there is still much more work to be done in one of the world's coldest ecosystems in antarctica sean thomas or team. after a short break and we profile it's highly a former soviet republic of moldova and see how it's fairing twenty years after the form of the us are.
