finances especially now with mubarak gone and the country going through a transitional period but observers say it's the same skin with only slightly different marketing these greens are being made with traditional transitional governments and these transitional governments have. become a primarily harder because of the old regime they composed primarily because from your regime for example samir radwan the finance minister in egypt has been negotiating this loan was a mubarak appointee a promise promise in cairo a billion dollars more in loan guarantees and on top of that another billion in debt cancellation while french president nicolas sarkozy has committed the g eight to providing up to ten billion dollars in direct aid it's a commitment the west says it's making to help each actions get back on the feet united states and the west are trying to reduce the damage caused by the revolutions v are. considerable financial

the western powers in its an attempt to unseat khadafi while before russia saying from but you don't believe in resolution in the un security council authorizing nato military operation here the rival of the russian special envoy to lead coincides with intensification of nature's strikes on these military arsenal here in tripoli when we arrived in the city to be her grandchild and to sounds very very have the bombardment just days ago the alliance extended its war against the gadhafi regime and has started using attack helicopters for the first time in this nation intensification could also be proven by the statesman's we can hear from nature secretary-general rasmussen side that's when he meets with the alliance's defense ministers on wednesday they demanded more countries contribute to the fight against gadhafi and just ahead of a russian special visit to leave there the british foreign secretary has declared

became a grandmother only after she'd lost everything else. you know the death of my son created a hole in my life that i will never close but the birth of my grown children certainly provide some solace as god's gift to me them our son died of cancer three years ago but before his first chemotherapy session doctors conserve his sperm but the help of surrogate mothers two sets of twins were brought into the world. the market has been through after her scientific career was put on hold yet lamar says they're all trifles compared to be reviewed and brought about by her son's death. it's love which is further grief but it's love nonetheless three years ago i couldn't imagine myself even smiling let alone laughing or singing songs for the little ones pull me out of this abyss of despair with her large family support lamar so she has

no financial or parental concerns about raising her grandchildren humane problem now is the reluctance of the russian state to recognize her as the marder of these children and her deceased son as their father. amar has taken the issue to court with a ruling expected and once the lord believes the lord is in their side. according to russian law there are no limits on who can become appearing through the use of surrogate mother hoops of course cases like this one are still very unusual in russia that's why some registration office he's a reporter officials may be confused and refuse to greatest her children but the law is definitely in our a favor the mara is the third woman in russia who use the sperm of her deceased son to continue the family's lineage yet whether it is due to her age or the sheer number of children involved her story a good many russians questioning the affixes of this kind of parenting if you will

all these exercises employment panics ultimately lead to this very ambiguous situation we can really tell the difference between a son and grandson there are so many orphans in russia so she wanted to be a mother she could have easily realized her maternal instincts i think ultimately it's a very selfish drive to pass your genes no matter what the plumber couldn't care less about societal attitudes too much suffering for the loss of your only son persuaded her that there is no such thing as too many grandchildren russian law has not age kept for people who are willing to adopt children the only cabbage is that a potential parent should be at least sixteen years older than the child in the muskies these days difference is almost sixty years just doesn't sit easily in a country where most people become parents before they train theory the raising even to kids is often seen more than

very similar to what it was in the old soviet union a study by a research group at the gaidar institute for economic policy says in both cases growing state expenses are balanced by extra well revenues but an heiress from business news magazine explains it just provides the need for reform. in the beginning you need the states to do a big push where you spend heavily on infrastructure you get with the promise turning you put some money in the system and then once you get this sort of green shoots of free and arise then the state leaves step right and nurture business and that's no space spending that's about tax codes and labor codes in europe you see cutting its trade in my view russia is at that stage now where it's transitioning out of the state spending and it needs to nurture business and it's not very good at it if we still thinks in terms of the big push you know we'll just put more money in the economy as i said it will that will lead to any more information and more import so we want to give you any growth and just cause you economic problems

here is biomass because you've got vast resources in the forests and it's unexplored to the moment i think you also have very heavy peak demand so you've got bigger issues with respect to the district heating in supply so i think biomass is probably the one that needs to be exploited now of course there are other areas because huge wind resource in russia that's not being exploited we need to be a little more expensive so it goes further up what we call the supply purified but i think at this stage by mississippi the energy russia has often been criticised for his bureaucracy overburdening foreign business but that toward the global business consulting believes it is not that different from many other parts of the world. i think political risk in russia is globally and regionally very manageable and very acceptable levels if you look at it coolly and calculated and that's why

many western companies undertake pepsico they're not putting you know short term capital in the country they've been bought for several billions there's a long term investment in this country and they've obviously done some very serious discussions in the global headquarters of pepsico about russian political risks and so forth and i. moderate thoughtful optimism about it broadly you could say there is a lot of stability and predictability in this market whether that's entirely good or not is another issue but it's certainly important factors for investors there are a lot of things wrong with the country but again relative compared with other parts of the world it's not that bad either. coming up next time i'll see the headlines with roy say with us for that.
