very warm welcomes you this is our c n n live from moscow top story now the european court of human rights is ruled that the case against russia's jailed ex oil tycoon mikhail ahold of course he was not politically motivated however it has found that his rights were violated during his arrest in two thousand and three hold of course he is currently serving a jail sentence and stealing billions of dollars from waterfalls russia's largest oil company has althea how deleted. in this latest twist in this story involving everything kind of post the court of european court of human rights has rejected the claims by the russian tycoon that his trial his prosecution has been

politically motivated right from the onset but of course he has been making these claims that one of the reasons aside from having headed one of the of biggest companies oil companies then is the fact that this has been captivating because he has been claiming that the russian political elite were involved in maneuvering this case well as of today the european court has rejected it he's famous and have a matter to settle now another point though that they did agree with carter called ski is that a violation of human rights and if use of his rights with regard to his arrest his trial and the conditions of his detention will they did order the russian courts p thirty five thousand dollars in compensation for what are called ski however the moscow court said that they will appeal this decision if they find any grounds to do so this isn't the first time that he has tried to visit for for parole in two thousand and eight his bid was rejected however this time the court has acknowledged that they have received this request if they're if they're processing

it they're looking at it out of n.b.c. that we will come up with it with a decision in about two weeks just to give you a background on how to cough he was convicted in two thousand and four for fraud and he was sentenced to eight years which he is currently serving and then in two thousand and ten he was convicted to another fourteen years which was reduced to thirteen yourself cording to his lawyers he has every right to. bid for parole at this point because he has served half of his sentence on the lawyers who want to speculate what the results will be according to the course they will try to come up with a decision as swiftly as possible and it shouldn't take more than two weeks to do so. ask any of them are coming up here on a rule to one. simple call to look at what you have to look at because you happen to. you know put them in their respective systems are there it's like the family now soldiers who return home alive are also getting why they had to witness the horrors of the so-called glorious wars which the public isn't even being told about. in serbia

a former army chief with all during the massacre of up to eight thousand muslims in ninety ninety five awaits a decision on his extradition appeal is expected in the hague any day now but his supporters believe justice will be on his side in the netherlands he's got that he knows a lot of it he's been in belgrade since the former generals arrest. bringing justice to thousands of victims that's one self-proclaimed success of the international criminal tribunal for the former yugoslavia and it's ready to deliver some more serbia prepares to extradite former bosnian serb army chief i'm not rich. he's accused of crimes against humanity and already in one thousand nine hundred ninety five massacre in of religious they're going. despite living on the run for sixteen years and having suffered two strokes the sixty nine year old general has been deemed fit enough to stand trial by the end of the week that

a lot it will most likely leave this special court house in belgrade and be transported to the hague war crimes tribunal but that one person we have spoken to police he will get a fair trial there are surely a lot of evidence to back up the serbs just trust of the i c t y so what do the people here based their judgment on a lot of people here in serbia are skeptical about the some of the practices of the high paid tribunal and some of its record for instance because slobodan milosevic died in prison without the conviction then for us war criminals are generally knowledged as a war criminals here in serbia like around with what i deny from cos of all. muslim commanders have actually been acquitted after the sudden death of witnesses or after the tribunals simply concluded that there was not enough evidence how did they isn't by only means the only example take current cost of

a prime minister. has been accused by the council of europe of being in charge of an organ trafficking group and still remains in his post mosque in general nothing or h. was known among the serb residents of the district it's tipping after the vampire for allegedly kind of throats of thousands of civilians he was. three cleared of all charges and former military leaders of each accused of mass murders during the balkan war of the one nine hundred ninety s. enter politics i think also of justice. this many suggest is a very clear indicator that the hague tribunal is being used as a political tool not a legal one. as it justice or something else events that happened in the balkans with a question of law geopolitics or someone else's interests and i believe that's all

the problems with former yugoslavia of victims and going to be if we let ourselves be involved in in the twentieth century when the proper time for the sake of foreign interests and no one emerged as a winner you. can crises was created much earlier with his long been unfolding before our eyes and it has nothing to do with law or justice for the law this tribunals is going to provide a cover for it. that doesn't believe his father will get a fair trial but at the very least the hague will offer him better treatment so. you don't need to be an expert as wonders of my father is in a very poor condition i can't even read so he has to go through thousands of pages to be able to testify in court that he's simply unable to do that he has difficulties with speech to make you know how well he consulted with his lawyers it's impossible with barneys got problems with his memory he may remember things that happened long ago the coppers or the same time he can remember what happened yesterday or the day before yesterday how can

a person who have been health problems appear in court or probably are used. to i.c.t. why is meant to offer more than just good medical care and your state justice is accused of turning a blind eye i just read these opinions and has been for some time i'm not at all surprised because when the conflict resulted. the western media including the british media was far from object to. well understand why people demonstrate against the rest of you. because of the accustomed to the for the western media always be named during the conflict mostly in from. a war crime involved at a place called blood which was completely ignored by the media over the legal photographic evidence of the massacre of. civilians

in the. service ministry of justice is called the ministry of truth it restricts the march off the trial that's likely to confirm what a lot of streets believe it stands for new. cashiers are now great serbia. our fresh explosions have been heard early on tuesday near the libyan capital tripoli it came just hours after colonel get back and signaled he was ready to accept a cease fire plan during talks with the south african president who they say though is not holding back in its onslaught britain's ministry of defense says it's to the point she attack helicopters and bunker buster bombs warheads have already arrived at an italian air base from where pilots will fly missions over libyans harkat speech analyst patrick hayes from the spiked online magazine told r.t. that while the alliance readies its a bunker busters libya might still be

a hard not to crack. this is us is getting worse for the west in libya i think when they first thought they could pull a swoop in two months ago and basically bomb the country into the into democracy they thought this was going to be quite a quick process where they could basically keep their hound you know keep a bit of a distance hold bombs into libya get rid of gadhafi and then everything will be all right now obviously that isn't the case and the introduction of these bunker busting bombs and the apache helicopters are inevitably going to make decision worse they could bring about severe civilian casualties in libya and i think also reek of desperation of making a lot of noise and for a lot of very expensive bombs over the last couple of months but actually they've done very little well they've ripped the democratic initiative from the libyan people and taken it into the hands of a small elite of western leaders 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 save your own matters into their own hands then really it was a very slippery slope from the offsets for a no fly zone to. 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. but as more nato bombs rained down on libya it's a constant like one eight a red that has been supplying bombs to the libyan leader several large spanish banks are reported to have been financing the manufacture of cluster bombs that have been around since two thousand and eight ball was here furthest the story.

just one strike in cluster bombs can spread thousands of smaller explosives a very expensive areas often failing to explode children mistake the controversial devices for something to play with. toys fighting to populated areas as they were in misrata recently they almost guarantees civilian deaths it's why more than one hundred countries have banned their production markings on the shelves found in the libyan city blown to spanish company instead. there were arms that once went. that were purchased by gadhafi that were used against a residential area in these about that and they were produced by a spanish company and financed by spanish banks to just how did the forces come to acquire spanish made arms in two thousand and seven installers and made the most of the lifting of the arms sanctions against libya as the tripoli regime fell back

into favor with the west the spanish company won a contract to supply these forces with one twenty weapon and did so until two thousand and eight when spain signed up to the international convention banning custody missions. but with libya now once again the enemy spain as part of nato finds itself fighting the regime itself helps to arm the trail goes back much further to spanish banks which provided the financial power to instill larger to make their deadly weapons of war we wanted to bring this thing forward uses as kind of awaits you illustrates what think there is between a bank. civilian deaths in conflicts because to me missions convention banning the production and use of cluster bombs has seen many countries including spain sign up but there's a loophole there is one article written convention article one seed. it speaks

about a prohibition to assist and a lot of countries countries have already into this article as also containing investment stream has not yet done so it means the last insta loss it can no longer produce and sell close to me nations spanish banks can continue investing in their manufacture spanish n.g.a. said tens investigations have uncovered spain alone had fourteen banks involved in financing nineteen makers of cluster bombs the b.v.a. is the spanish bank that's been most active financing producers of controversial weapons and it's exactly this kind of large scale financing they contain is now trying to rein in pushing for the development of more robust policy to ensure that banks are held accountable without legislation there remains a direct link not only between the weapons could cheeses and the banks that finance them but between the banks and the customers banks and not really transparent about

what they are using the savings savers money for so it's not easy to find many of the banks named in the investigation and now coming forward to say their policies on funding arms production are to change but until that happens in the murky world events production wall remains a profitable business. r.t. . well if you want to learn more about the stories that we're covering here on the us here you can always add more parts more websites boston dot com and here's just a small selection of what we have a long queue outside the movement one of russia's richest media types since it creates a new grandiose our project by merging his recent asset the u.k.'s daily newspaper the independent with a russian newspaper. special villages created for the children of being a stylist across russia to bring happiness to those surprise parental affection.

i think i don't think that they would send these places. to carry out what they're asking of us so i don't think that their respect is there like. declaring war is the prerogative of politicians over the decades us wars have resulted in a reported twenty three million american veterans and many left struggling to adjust to life following a battle a shift from fighting enemies to fighting demons arena for nine or r.t. new york. a look now at some other international news making headlines this hour an afghan president hamid karzai says he will no longer allow the nato airstrikes in residential areas because of the vast number of civilian casualties his speech as we should strike killing ten children or four adults in helmand province in the
