12:04 am
well arty's and he said no way spoke exclusively to the nato secretary general and this was rasmussen then was defiant over the reiterating alliances controversial and and of a un resolution actually the u.n. security council resolution goes beyond a no fly zone according to the u.n. security council resolution we are mandated to protect the civilian population in libya taking all necessary measures and that's exactly what we're doing right now i just want to clarify for some of our viewers who have seen homes bombs are they've seen civilian buildings blown to pieces the three in a car on a phone or in a hospital on a phone constitute a command center for your purposes when you say any means. i would like to stress that we are not targeting individuals we legitimity military. targets. and of course control centers can be used to plan and
12:05 am
organize attacks against civilians show command and control centers are legitimate military targets. so you can check out our web site r.t. dot com to watch that interview in full. data this is outside interference in syria just a matter of time we look at how the shoe is a building on damascus the international energy agency that other people want the country to know when it's the puti turn so. vegetables have been that menu at it today you russian summit and not for dinner assures random food imports from europe for doing a recent. outbreak has been discussed with the world trade organization membership . things contentious missile defense system is also on the agenda. has more from a venue where the talks are being held. on the first informal day of the summit host
12:06 am
president dmitry medvedev showed his guests around the ancient city of. on the revolt the forty two code walked down the river bank and there they were looking for a change of light above the gloomy landscape of the arab world uprisings and big euro crisis well hope to muse must build largely around resume various quest for reforms more than eyes asian and also breakthrough agreements reached between brussels and mosco since the last russian you summit but progress on russia's accession won't always accession into w two were seventeen years russia has been in membership talks with these one hundred fifty three nations world trade organization at the moment russia is the only major economies still outside the club go into some to last year brussels gave a formal green light to russia's and tributes and other points of contention between the e.u. and russia are america's plans to build
12:07 am
a new anti-missile defense system for europe the european union says that it is not designed against russia but russia wants legal confirmation of that legal guarantees which it has not received so for now another below discord is russia's recent ban on both the bills from the ravine union in the wake of the deadly e. coli outbreak which two days killed twenty seven people and hospitalized thousands of others brussels criticize that measure and called it disproportionate russia accused brussels of failing to provide sufficient information on the source of the simple action but progress could be reached during the summit here in. the e.u. is more transparent and shows more flexibility on the show. the bill to the group and invitation. most powerful people is taking place in switzerland just what the political insiders and media mogul. an industry actually discuss remains top secret
12:08 am
facilities reports there's outrage that the world's behind closed doors this point because tell what you can see on the hill behind me is the hotel in summer it's in switzerland and it's there for the next couple of days around about one hundred fifty of the world's most powerful people will be meeting behind closed doors to discuss whatever they like if the builder group again of course it's the invitation only gathering of the world's most influential people attendees in the past including kings and presidents captains of industry and heads of the world's most powerful corporations media coverage of the building tall nothing not even a list of people who will be in attendance there is no publicized agenda no press releases are released during the course of the event. despite some fairly high level media moguls going to build a back every single year and that's led to all sorts of speculation about what the building actually is since the one nine hundred fifty s.
12:09 am
when it first started meeting it's been variously accused of planning to call eighty percent of the population of most of minding the financial crisis also of secretly coming up with the original plan to implement the euro the european currency people traditionally don't like things like that they're famous for that neutrality and for that transparency and sure enough they're all going to be processed here during the course of this build now we never know what's on the agenda of the building group but they're all dedicated both about watches and one of them is a man called jim talk he says that the arab spring will be a main topic of discussion here he says that the builder brokers are looking to create and engineer and masterminds of war in the middle east in order to protect the interests of israel they'll be looking to prolong now but they will be worried he says because there is increasing opposition to the war in libya in the u.s. congress says that will be worrying that another thing that. you know that he says stuff hard according to jim tucker and many other build about what's in it is the
12:10 am
bills about green who will decide who the head of the i.m.f. will be so we'll be looking in the coming weeks and months for any source of information about the news agenda. or at it. from the canadian based think tank the center for research on global isolation told r.t. he believes he's meetings undermined the whole concept of democracy the idea that you shouldn't. discussion of. democratic leaders are supposed to be democratic countries where they be able to go industrialists and being. and talk in secret without anybody knowing that's not democracy that's all i'm investigating journalist sources inside. and we've been proven to be correct so it's a. person. and as far as we know it's not
12:11 am
a speculation until. there is increased media attention on these events and that's very important and then used to continue and accelerate it. will keep you updated on what's going on around the building but meeting twists of fate of tweets that swiss t.v. reports of god tests are in for the video so to stay on top of us still. well syria is finding itself under increasing pressure on two fronts the un's nuclear watchdog the international atomic energy agency has to report the country to the security council over a suspected covert nuclear program comes as the council is already considering a british french resolution condemning president assad's crackdown on syrian protesters russia has opposed the move saying outside involvement will only make matters worse what's in that report no is of course the latest developments. but
12:12 am
this what will happen next the u.n. security council will take up this issue now we have to remember that syria is being accused by the u.s. and its western allies of not complying with inspectors from the international atomic energy agency that want to go in visit a structure in its north east region this alleged structure in syria we have to underscore here was destroyed by israel in two thousand and seven and before that syria maintained that it was being used for no kind of threat purposes it was it was maintained under the rules of. proliferation treaty which syria is a part of according to what's been reported the u.s. and its western allies believe that syria is attempting to build construct a covert structure in the area that i want to go to to build possibly nuclear weapons if a resolution once
12:13 am
a resolution is proposed if it is adopted syria could be slapped with sanctions and so at this point we should mention that it was only seventeen states that voted yes to push this through from the i.a.e.a. to the security council there were six knows including china and russia and eleven its extensions so we see that there is a divide here by the u.s. and its european allies are having its way in putting this through to the u.n. consultations are continuing behind closed doors security council members to introduce a draft resolution that has been co-sponsored by france germany and portugal that calls for an international condemnation of the syrian government crackdown of anti-government protesters it urges countries not to sell any weapons to damascus it also calls for an independent investigation into what has taken place in syria over the. three months we have heard in the past officials from russia
12:14 am
saying they don't think it's in the best intentions to slap syria with a resolution was because of concern interfering in syria fears nearly to an escalation of violence because it may be misinterpreted by destructive opposition forces who want change of power in damascus such a position will definitely lead to more bloodshed and an escalation of violence it's important to avoid that we remember that in libya it also started with defending human rights which ended up with the world lead by ticklish and clearly this is a one two punch that is being implemented by the u.s. . allies but of course we will keep our viewers updated on any developments are taking place. what the patients in the international community over syrian leader bashar assad could cause him to believe the west wants him to stay that's one of pay and voice not a great show crosstalk coming up. at the moment what he's getting is a very ambiguous on thirty. form of.
12:15 am
use the formulation of words that he interprets as a form of support for he thinks the west wants him to stay neutral of interest because it is really you know whatever through the west is really is the arabs have not told him yet what in a clear way that his time is up he thinks that he has a life and for a court of law to do whatever he wants a kind of a life of. to remain in power because they want him to remain in power because of. the voice of russia radio will be adding a new perspective to american airways launch of two u.s. based stations so that's been broadcasting internationally for more than eighty years from now programming from north america directly from washington to new york
12:16 am
. tuned in to find out more. welcome to voice of russia in washington i'm just going jordan time now five o'clock in d.c. and one in moscow they launched with the motto the more voices the better the voice of russia team in washington reports on international and u.s. news just like any other news radio station they say what makes them different is their efforts to bring up what's being left out by the us mainstream media when you consider american foreign policy has huge effects around the world i would say we are not hearing enough of people from people around the world the need for more voices in the media was up for discussion at this panel in washington titled gateway to understanding the great deal. going on in this country right now can we are we open to voices from outside i think absolutely yes media analysts say
12:17 am
there is stigma i guess the russian media something that voice of russia will have to fight through to become a credible source of information for the american audience and you have to work with perceptions which are still existing and i think even more it is important that you raise your voice and try to get people to think differently about russia and so far i think this is extremely important to do it for years during the soviet union a voice of america funded by washington had been a source of alternative information for millions of russians now in modern russia it sees its mission as being a little different to what it was during the cold war the lack of the truly alternative voice of the media has serious consequences for the development for democratization of the russian society in my opinion and it is here that the voice of america concert took boii feeling an important vacuum voice of russia seems to be seeking to fill a similar information vacuum that many see in the u.s. media with its truth or a lie as it's about perspectives and i strongly believe that american audiences
12:18 am
will only win from the array of perspectives the radio audience in america is growing. and with the demand for more voices and more perspectives and it seems a certainty that in the wake of the voice of russia other foreign stations will be larger than the ones who really benefit from the writing in the media always the viewers and listeners i'm going to check our reporting from washington markey. and later today we'll take a closer look at the current state of the american media group cost and lose documentaries next hour so here's a quick three. it was created to serve public interests to inform and to entertain. these days there's nothing easier than opening a new media outlet but there is nothing harder than revoking its license in case of corruption. when you. stand. in from.
