on our team tonight a national hero or a war crimes fugitive serbian general knowledge battles moves to hand him over to the european hague tribunal with backing from crowds on belgrade streets. despite the support of the most serious europe's most wanted man smalls likely going to be sent to the hague all the details from the outbreak in just a few months. also coming up british apache helicopters prepare to cruise the libyan skies it's feared the attempt to put pressure on playing because that could actually put nato personnel in the line of fire. and the u.s. government plans to send terrorism where there's aster alerts directly to cell

phones opponents say it's just spreading chronic not protection. also in our business bulletin russia is ready to resume the export of graves after maintaining a bad for almost find out more in twenty minutes. live from moscow this is r t it's ten pm now here this monday evening going to name is kevin though in our top story for you europe's most wanted war crimes fugitives lodge an appeal in a serbian court against attempts to having extradited to the hague to stand trial for bosnian serb general is charged with aldrin the murder of around eight thousand muslims in one thousand nine hundred five and following his arrest serbia's president the e.u. for a reward in the form of fresh talks on membership to the union his country in

a sort of as i've said the court in belgrade hearing that its case. not many people here in serbia believe that a lot of his appeal will actually be successful despite his deteriorating health condition and of the. all the efforts made by his lawyers and his family to prevent him being sent to the hague war crimes tribunals and after the court receives that appeal it then has to read days to decide on whether to extradite the man or not his lawyer however saying that he might not make it to see the trial. raku monday. you want even live to see distorted this trial and genocide charge and ask for a battery of independent doctors to examine the sixty nine great condition they capture about the law which was one of the key conditions for serbia for potential entrance into the european union and of course access to the billions of dollars worth of grant a that could come with it but for the people here it's nothing but

a betrayal and that's exactly why they took to the streets of the capital yesterday holding some ten thousand people rally in the very heart of the serbian capital belgrade here the three thousand riot police deployed to keep the peace but of course that didn't happen to some of you started throwing stones and thought also lighting firecrackers all things went flying out riot police literally saw bricks flying at riot police having them on their helmets on their shields liabilities but made the decision to disperse the crowd and start hitting them everybody and anybody basically with their legs haunts trying to disperse the crowd separate them so of course they would be easier to control. and nearly thirty people were injured as a result we personally saw lots of people walking around with their faces covered in blood presumably from being hit by one of those rocks that were flying overhead we

also know that over one hundred people were detained following those arrests most. them getting age of eight. i think katrina czar over there reporting for us four from belgrade will manage his lawyer says he's now mailed the appeal so the court will review the play before deciding whether to ship his client to the hague foreign policy analyst boy and british told us that even if mileage does make it to the tribunal few in serbia got faith in the way that it works many process is there have been first of all very long and we can talk about the efficiency of the tribunal the people have spent an enormous amount of time in the hague and a lot of people here in serbia are skeptical about some of the practices of the high hague tribunal and some of its records for instance. because slobodan milosevic the late president of yugoslavia and serbia actually died

in prison without a conviction then for us war criminals that are generally acknowledged as war criminals here in serbia. but i deny from course. muslim commanders have actually been acquitted after. sudden death of witnesses or after the tribunal simply concluded that there was not enough evidence . basically but many serbs do not consider the hague tribunal to be unbiased and fair and in the minds of those people. it is questionable whether whether this trial will be will be fair and it was a foreign policy analyst boy in breakage talk to us about how he thinks margins trial in the hague is likely to pan out. britain stepping up pressure on cold feet by deploying apache attack helicopters and bunker busting bombs in libya it comes

as nato chief says the libyan leader's reign of terror is nearing an end result is reports next. seems to be moving far beyond mere humanitarian. and inexorable trends towards escalation that's what analysts are calling british involvement in the libya conflicts as the u.k. prepares to send in apache attack helicopters. they can fly low they can fly slow so they can hit targets that force jets cannot hit from the air they also involve the term out of risk we can be shopped around much more easily than a fast jet so the possibility of the circus not be captured on the ground has just gone up the apaches which will be joined by a contingent of french helicopters can maneuver in built up areas and attack fairly small targets they'll make it easier to take out arms stored and target places where colonel gadhafi may be hiding it's part of prime minister david cameron strategy to turn up the heat in libya they seem to think that if they quote the

u.n. resolution at the same time as they call for. regime change it's a comic like a guarantee. frankly they're involved in a civil war. helicopters apache helicopters they're the intensive bombing of tripoli that's going on this is a war about regime change the helicopters markedly the latest escalation of this conflict following the no fly zone nato centered advisors to train the rebels introduce train patrols and by the first week of may have a nearly six thousand strike sorties trickly subjected to the heaviest bombing. the recent you poll for the sun tabloid newspaper showed less than half of britons now support the intervention in libya. numbers likely to plummets once u.k. troops are in significantly more danger just what if. god forbid we lose

ten people if that happened we. don't even think about it so the issue is we haven't dropped any blood yeah we've dropped tens of millions of pounds which we have but not one single one of our people has. the game and the. people have marched against the libya war here in the u.k. but in small numbers compared to the million man march the head of the invasion of iraq helicopters bring the fighting closer to the ground with a high risk of death and grew up with this new government might be able to bend that is known as the new strategy makes rapid progress but it doesn't many see the net that troops on the ground think. that the u.n. resolution that allowed the regional flights to be enforced in libya you're at is healthy young. patrick hayes is a journalist from spiked online magazine he told me all the coalition has done so

far and the deal is take the democratic momentum away from the people. if you are actually getting worse for the west in libya i think when they first thought they could kind of swoop in two months ago and basically gone the country into the into democracy they thought this is going to be quite a quick process where they could basically keep their hands you know keep a bit of a distance hold bombs into libya get rid of the ogre gadhafi and then everything will be all right now obviously that isn't the case and the introduction of these new bunker busting bombs in the apache helicopters are inevitably going to make decision worse they could bring about severe civilian casualties in libya and i think also reka desperation maybe making a lot of noise and for a lot of very expensive forms over the last couple of months but actually they've done very little else they've ripped the democratic initiative from the libyan people and taken it into the hands of a small elite of western leaders as soon as the no fly zone was implemented as soon

as the decision was made by cameron by celko the by obama to intervene in what was effectively a civil war to basically just throw aside the whole idea of national sovereignty and say we're going to intervene on behalf of the libyan people the poor helpless libyan people you can't say there are matters into their own hands then really it was a very slippery slope from the offsets for the no no fly zone to bombing to potentially ground troops it's very hard to predict what's going to happen but by no means should that be ruled out it could happen and it could happen very soon they're desperate to try and end this conflict but they don't really know how to do it so i think they're going to throw everything at it and see what sticks. still ahead future night on r t keeping the nation posted we reform how the u.s. plans to protect telamon is straight to the phones of every american. and the gloves are off the world's biggest emerging economies demand a break from the tradition of putting you live here at the top position at the

i.m.f. the international monetary. a farewell ceremony has been held for the late president of the cars you have now after his body was laid in state in the russian capital so again the gaps died of lung cancer at a moscow hospital on sunday when the leading politicians including president would vent if could pay their last respects perhaps from sixty two years old and lead of cars who for the last six years during the struggle to retain independence from georgia because their sovereignty was recognized by russia in two thousand and eight following the georgian military assault on another occasion republic south a city you have his body has now been flown to a pause here is free will be held on thursday. in america big brother has a mobile and he's learned how to text the u.s. government now as a system of consent emergency alerts to everyone from blizzards to terror threats the warnings will go straight to people's phones but many feel it's creating needless panic is artie's my report my founder. the country that created i phones.

has more than three hundred million wireless users and in the name of national security the u.s. government will soon have a direct link to each and every handheld device it's like a piece of this is going to it's there for a good reason but we hope that we never have to pull the trigger it gathered at the scene of the september eleventh terrorist attacks federal in new york city officials join the c.e.o.'s of the four largest wireless carriers to announce the nation's new tech tools and alert system enabling the president and government agencies to blast every american with text messages warning of terror threats weather disasters and kidnappings the cell phone alert system will launch in new york city and washington d.c. by the end of this year expanding nationwide there after wireless users may have the option of not receiving certain alerts but americans will not be able to opt out of the messages sent by the u.s.

president opponents say politicians are promoting more fear while providing little protection now we have a system of mandatory and inescapable alerts to every cell phone in the land in the event that the government decides that something is happening that we ought to know about just as the introduction of the patriot act came right after nine eleven so this new kind of technological innovation comes to us without any public discussion right after the assassination of osama bin laden and why you professor and author mark crispin miller says americans are living in an age of creeping authoritarianism and scare tactics they use fear for any kind of government that it craves more control over people's wives and thoughts is that it makes people malleable it makes them obedient i mean you go to any airport pretty. and you can

see this in action that people are taking off their shoes moving to getting groped under the auspices of airport safety babies senior citizens and everyone in between must now endure pat downs or pass through body scanners before boarding in the case of muslim americans that may not be enough six days following the killing of osama bin ladin forty moms on two separate u.s. flights were illegally kicked off planes for looking suspicious and you have a few hate mongers who who can come can evoke emotions you know nothing bill they play on people's emotions to play on people's ignorance about islam and muslims you see and also this war is creating a climate of fear you see if you see something suspicious in the parking lot or in the store say something immediately in december the department of homeland security began encouraging americans to report suspicious activity to the country's largest food retailer wal-mart's partnership with washington has been accused of

perpetrating a climate of panic and subsequent need for more surveillance you need to create an entity for people to rally behind and list wars and the fact that we're spending over fifty percent of our taxes on war and our national defense when there's really no threat directly to this country and they need to keep validating this following the assassination of enemy number one an american lawmaker called for an increase in rail safety funding and the creation of a no ride list as u.s. officials warn of more terror threats following bin laden's death many americans remain concerned others are left wondering about the dangers of for seeking too much liberty for security. artsy new york. for all the stories we're covering all the do head to our. t.v. with great novel perspective it's online so it's not a culture interest there is a taster of what we've got for you tonight former russian tycoon mikhail khodorkovsky. serving time for stealing oil plans to request early parole that is

moyers says he's not going to admit guilt very long running story in this culture with the latency one of clinicians more information online tonight. the us are afraid of witnesses a distinct lack of liberty as r.t. america presented in court has instructed by police after ganster thomas jefferson memorial for a firsthand account of what went on r.t. dot coms the place to be. the race to run the international monetary fund is not so much about who but where the candidate comes from europe traditionally decides who gets the post and leaves already pushing its preferred choice making it hard for others to get a look at the five leading emerging economies say it's time someone else had a go at is a really good reports next on how the brics countries of brazil russia india china south africa are all refusing to take no for an answer right now. it's a change they don't believe in with the former directors on an extra scar out of

the financial picture they're going to is looking for a suitable replacement and while the current financial situation in europe maser just a new approach is needed to solve the problems by the looks of it the i.m.f. will go in the other direction the weight of tradition and also the fact that there has been a long standing between the united states and europe the u.s. will have the world bank and europe has the fun i'm sure the europeans would convince all leading thinkers on the matter that at this juncture you still need someone familiar with the problems of the euro is the french finance minister christine lagarde and while europeans hail her as one of the strongest economists in the euro zone some remain skeptical about her progress and christine legarde complex. i want. more of the same as long as they can sustain it it's not obvious you know. maybe

a. default. perhaps even live in europe so they may not be able to maintain these policies but the trend is for them to you if you try greece is that is what the fight spain and portugal are too far ahead and soon the find themselves in a very similar situation. where is your asking why must there be you know that help and what happens to promises of fresh faces some at first seem to have very short memories i think if christina does get the job i think it will be a bit. of. only a few months ago had said that there should be a change in the global order. india and china over the last three or four years have been the world's largest economies and it's india and china that have. the world out of the economic slump about it has been in the last few years one of the

world's most powerful organizations the international monetary fund has the power and countries to plunge them into despair take russia for example some say their condition played a crucial role in bringing about the default of one nine hundred ninety eight thousands of people can use and desperate i remember when the soviet union broke up and and the rest of the g seven chris cried economic advice to the new russia and it was completely disastrous this complete. of the russian economy appetite completely destroyed rational in several ways and i think that's what the i.m.f. has done in several other economies bailing out greece and as you know bailout for portugal italy and spain are also on the cards sex scandals broken pledges deeply in debt as europe attempts to antenatal itself from its fiscal chaos it seems clear that a new approach is vital to stay afloat but the international monetary fund seems to

focus more on keeping rising economies out of the picture than on solving the many problems it now faces in r.t. . well r.t. spoke to one on the european news gathering support for the top job at the i.m.f. the head of kazakhstan is national bank so this is a bad time europe's monopoly ended this is a short excerpt of what he had to say. developed countries and the european countries that would like to maintain the status quo which is not necessarily from here and i think that changes. have already started but probably they do not go far enough. for developing countries that are going through our serve themselves and trying to change this and for your system maybe it was free in one nine hundred fifty s. and one nine hundred sixty s. but different from here anymore.

and reminder for you can catch the full interview with because it stands possible kind of in for the i.m.f. chief in ten minutes time here on this channel r.t. from moscow. also in the news tonight now germany has agreed to shut down all of its nuclear power plants by twenty twenty two making it the biggest industrial power to give up on atomic energy the reversal in government policy follows the crisis that japan's fukushima plant that triggered mass protests across germany but was a quarter of the country's electrical power is provided by nuclear stations the government's now seeking alternative sources. to the forces and you have a live shot dead at least twenty protesters in the southern city of taiz police try to storm the main square the center of anti-government demonstrations president ali abdullah saleh refuses to step down meantime despite months of protests and strong opposition from a key tried and in that. this is a yemeni warplanes and carried out airstrikes on hundreds of al qaeda militants seized the city at the weekend. let me take you could have been killed and dozens

injured after twin bomb blasts in the afghan city of herat two suicide bombers attacked an italian run base but a number of other insurgents try to get inside the taliban recently declared a spring offensive in afghanistan the violence follows a recent nato strike in the country which killed fourteen civilians most of them children. it's well within twenty minutes time tonight discover why football's governing body fee for battling a big crisis today as well details on that right now the monday business live from moscow with dmitri. when we come to business r t russia central bank is raising the deposit rates and the effort to draw some of the cash out of the economy but at its regular policy meeting it decided not to raise the key reply nanse rate bank is struggling to keep inflation under control which is currently running at twice the european average less likely somebody from bush's bank russia believes further tightening steps and

so forth but clearly the central bank is sending the signal that it can go an extra step to deal with inflationary pressures. i think however given the fact that inflation a significantly above the target level for the central bank which would be around seven percent for this year perhaps we'll see additional measures by the central bank to tackle inflation later this year well i think until the end of this year the balance is likely to be towards stronger i think the central bank will have to rely on the strong ruble in order to tame inflation simply because the ruble is such a potent and dealing with inflationary pressures we've seen it before and i think. we'll see it again in the course of this year. russia's finally lifting its a grain export as droughts and flooding threaten crops from europe and the us there

in the course of a looks at what this might mean for local and international grain markets. farming is an unpredictable business in biblical times it was plagues of locusts and now days mother nature shows her wrath by sending floods and droughts last year was particularly bad in russia as farmers contend that with the longest dry hot summer for over a century the grain harvest was devastated this year the weather has been altogether more convivial the stores have really filmed and the export ban left. with a mess to come is estimated. sixty malan sounds. from supply demand perspective we can export around fifteen million sounds but a broad everything in the garden is not so rosy droughts and floods have afflicted parts of europe and the us causing widespread crop damage analysts fear and further

hike in prices which have already jumped almost eight percent in the past year russia wants the second largest wheat exports are in the world could help turn things around. this will of course have an effect on the global market if russia is returning to the grain export trade and has sizable resources to do so because i believe global prices will drop as a result of this although maybe not as significantly russia's reaction in the global market may not solve grain shortages or rising food prices but it will play a role and offsetting the damage during a quarter of our business r.t. now let's take a look at how russia's stock markets on monday and the obvious my tax matters moderate gains a better sentiment is dampened by like a and us with markets are closed for a. public holiday sacred to some of the individuals share movers on the my sex gas
