just after five pm here in moscow you with r.t. i'm real research and it's to libya now where nato airstrikes and advancing rebel forces are tightening the noose around colonel gadhafi stronghold tripoli civilians in the capital live in constant fear of being killed and now a petrol shortage is making their lives even more difficult nato's actions which are aimed at protecting civilians have succeeded only in stoking people's anger as artie's maria financial reports from tripoli. it may have some of the largest oil reserves on the planet but these days labor is also god some of the longest queues at his petrol stations the international sanctions imposed on the embattled colonel's regime did not include a few and. that nato is targeting tank if suspected the fuel might be used by gadhafi as military forces with roads closed factories at a stop and foreign workers long since gone from the war stricken country facing its worst energy crisis ever the new realities ordinarily been drivers now spend vast

amounts of time queuing for few months ago this became a common theme. in the country people have been lining up to fill up their cars even days but this line is a little different compared to the gas station at the end of life here is women only and barker is a university student and has volunteered here to help organize the process she stamps a few russian boots which allow individuals thirty five liters a week she believes it's a great idea to have women on the station as. the women have too many things to do they don't fight each other world queuing and never shoot into the year is men often do so we're able to serve up to nine hundred cars were de facto enough to look at. this line is long but others are ruben longer petrol still cheaper than water here just a few cents for

a litter it's just that is often in short supply. if there is no few we have to give our cars and return reentry appears that could be days. when only gas stations is one of many innovations supposed to ease people's lives in a country in cares there are also special problems for ambulances and police cars. but the needle surrounded us but we should move on. we try to do our best to help people get by but we give up we'll die it's a lot of those seeking to oust colonel gadhafi may have been hoping the hardships will incite people to rise up against their leader but instead it only seems to be fueling people's hatred towards what they feel is western imperialists. need and they do damaged our city destroyed our life they told us they want to save people is that the way to save the people tell me this is just a crime. while the warring sides try to find

a way out of months of devastating conflict ordinary people looking for a way to just leave their everyday lives dreaming about times when these nightmare would be with a distant memory. r.t. tripoli. now as the coalition is slammed by critics for straying from its un mandate to protect civilians in libya some analysts claim that was never even on nato's agenda radio host of ralph schoenman told us here at r t that the interventions only aim is to divide and conquer with a view to seizing natural resources. as an imperial a gender the un is a fig leaf for pursuing imperial war and libya as in africa at large they want to carve up the country sees its resources and on a basis of constant military intervention and the population itself is the target its resources will be usurped the ploy for the benefit of foreign oil companies in

the ninety ninety s. that gadhafi regime was controlled by the central intelligence agency and khadafi privatized three hundred six companies and libyan oil was handed over to the major oral companies exxon shell the immobile but the uprising was the occasion for the intervention and demonizing khadafi as they had saddam hussein and previously as a cover and pretexts saddam was their man in baghdad for twenty seven years khadafi had worked hand in glove with the cia and with congolese arise from the ninety thought but they demonize him now to give them cover for gender seize the oil subjugating the population the population does not benefit from their natural resources because at the disposal of foreign corporations on behalf of the united states in the western powers the resources go outward to the foreign corporations that control them the population is a missile rated countries with great wealth but they don't enjoy the benefit of it

because of the class character of the regime and the nature of imperial power that controls and installs these regimes and maintains them. here with aunty and still to come on the program as another fuel feud brewing in the middle east find out how egypt is a revolution looks set to trigger a gas shortage in israel. us offices are investigating the disappearance of nearly seven billion dollars sent by washington to fund the reconstruction of iraq the cash was flown in after the toppling of saddam hussein in two thousand and three but is now completely unaccounted for a form of bush administration official told me that the money went missing under the watch of the incoming cia chief david petraeus he was then in charge of america's mission in iraq. pallets with american cash american currency was stored in the basement of the republican palace saddam's main building headquarters building basically the seat of the iraqi government they say it was in volts well

they don't say that the doors of the vaults were wide open i knew people that were that had walked past these powers full of american money and anybody could edge of could have just walked in grabbed a stack of hundred dollar bills and walked away all of this stuff was going on while david petraeus was the commander of the multinational security transition command in iraq in zero four and zero five and this is the same period of time that one hundred ninety thousand a k forty seven and nine millimeter pistol pistols purchased by the u.s. government for the iraqi army national police disappeared the accountability of cold hard u.s. cash was essentially nonexistent for many years after the war when iraqi officials threatening court action to get the money back political analyst rick young from the voice of russia radio station believes that baghdad has every right to demand the money. i would say they probably have some legal claim to that money

and a legitimate claim to go to court the u.s. has already said that it took those the money from the oil from those and from the oil fields they've already taken that money they seized it in the sanctions against . hussein's iraq so the money is legitimately the iraqis the question is again if the u.s. government can't find the money they'll have to come up with it some way so my feeling is that they do have some claim to this money some legal claim and it's going to take some time to want to the courts whichever courts they choose to go through probably international courts to get this money back. you with r t live from moscow and the situation in iraq is also leading our top story today an attack on a government compound in the town of cooper has left at least nine people dead seventeen injured two car bombs went off outside the compound during a weekly provincial council meeting in the town which lies so just northeast of baghdad the blasts cleared the way for suicide bombers to enter the compound

city of wish to the israeli port of ashkelon. but the revolution in egypt supported by the united states is backfiring on israel the interim cairo government says it's not obliged to sell gas to israel and is pushing to renegotiate the agreement did her rewrites for several papers from israel he says the deal was always unpopular among egyptians to give. you know. this business is. not. keeping people the egyptian public prosecutor has since ordered an investigation into the deal former president hosni mubarak contributes sons are accused of having personally benefited from it which doesn't surprise yourself poet skee who set up the natural gas system in israel he was against the deal from the start not least because it was signed between israel and the east mediterranean gas company which is registered offshore and has no assets in egypt it was obvious the cheap date in. which were

a custom in the arab world and it was also very obvious that one if the president is not. is a girl is not going to rule egypt of course the whole contract is not worth the paper it's written on the east mediterranean gas company declined our request for an interview egypt's natural gas supplies about forty to fifty percent of the electricity power stations in israel it can be replaced by the fuels but they're more expensive and dirty which is why boys a rod is blogging frenetically online he writes about green issues and says the alternative options that israel has to the egyptian supplies are not that attractive to the getting high price and we need to burn a lot of. much more pollutants in the us and the fact that we didn't develop. plants planting time will cause us to much more than we could.

call station in place and working. if no agreement with cairo is reached tel aviv is going to have to function without natural gas for a year and some israelis are stepping up efforts to develop gas wells now being discovered offshore but these two remain a source of dispute between israel and lebanon as beirut claims that there's either way the gas issue is likely to keep heating up r.t. television or since the us has been backing the uprisings in the middle east r.t. asked a former congresswoman and presidential candidate simply cooney about america's interests in the region. really want to understand the motivations of u.s. policy we have to go back to what ray mcgovern who is a former cia analyst had to say and he described u.s. policy is being driven by. i and l. now what's in l.

by the way. to. critique free. free. free. free. free. free. free media. he is coming to you live from moscow russia is plagued by one of the highest rates of teen suicide in the world with as many as four thousand attempting to kill themselves. experts say it's the parents that are often at fault for not seeing the problems staring them right in the face but. reports there are many other forces at work. just days before final exams a t.v. crew was reporting and students gearing up for the adult lives that lay ahead of

them the teachers pointed to polina that brought a student who it seemed had her future figured out a stage i want to become a journalist because it's a very interesting and creative profession which would open doors to the world for me. but instead of a school living celebration pulling his classmates gathered for his funeral something she may not be the best she ended everything and hank herself. have been getting ready for the example week than pulling out was the one who worked the hardest of all she saw her load of math problems and she was very nervous she wanted to graduate isn't a great student for many countries this trash of exams in late december and early june sees peaks in the number of children taking their own lives but in russia it's a year round problem roughly one and a half thousand children in teenagers killed themselves every year that's much

higher than the average scene in the united states and britain. the problem is so out of hand that when i was informing the president about it he found it hard to believe but the figures are truly frightening every year up to four thousand children make attempts on their lives girls are up to four times more likely to attempt suicide it is still boys who by a long way actually succeed in killing themselves. eager is different his try to take his life three times the latest a time just six months ago. i just had enough i was tired of fighting with my mom my girlfriend left me i was fed up with studying i couldn't stand seeing the streets and hearing all this noise i just wanted everything to end and i wanted peace what's driving the problem in russia is what experts call a low emotional literacy psychological or psychiatric help is underdeveloped and not easily available then there is the stigma. most the most suicides are attempted

or committed in a state of emotional distress which builds over time there are warning signs but even if parents notice them many would rather ignore them than to take their kid to a psychologist or psychiatrist added to that continuing social and economic shift making it harder for parents to provide for their children and leaving little time for talking and listening this morning meant is that they cater to children who have fallen victim to adult vices alcoholism drug abuse prostitution and i want to go with can drive a child to take his or her own life but in the center of this over only wicket bigger stones one that seems policy driving almost commonplace yet it represents what experts say is the main reason why russia is leading europe and the number of teen suicides about us and difference seeing no evil hearing now cries out of work or artsy. twenty minutes past the hour here in the russian capital

they've explored the waters of the arctic and plunge down to look at the titanic but now for the first time russian deep sea subs plumb the depths of switzerland's lake geneva the sub's cutting edge technology will be used to collect data on the geology and physics of the lake to also test just how clean the water really is that's drunk by thousands of swiss and french every day the vessels can function is deepest six thousand meters but this time they'll only dive to about three hundred meters that is the deepest point of lake geneva the expedition will go on until mid august with just only two days off for the crews and subs. well a little bit later on here on our we talked to a journalist who covered the bosnian its civil war in the mid one nine hundred ninety s. he shares his memories of former bosnian serb general ratko sure was facing war crimes charges in the hague all of that after the business bulletin with kareena that's coming your way in just a few minutes. wealthy

hello welcome to business hearty thanks for joining me russia has resumed electricity supplies to bella rose project arabia into raul has reportedly resumed all power transmission after the troubled country promised to pay the fifteen million dollars owed by the fifth of july although by there was a transit country supplies to the baltic countries were not affected. but below us is still facing one of the steepest economic crisis in decades inflation is spiraling out of control and is expected to reach forty percent this year but russia and its c.i.s. neighbors have come to the rescue with a three billion dollar loan the head of the crisis fund explains who is contributing what. the fund now has eight and the how billion dollars slightly more than eight of the how billion dollars six countries and questions are

remaining kazakhstan kyrgyzstan russia and russia has put in seven point five billion dollars has put in one billion dollars other countries have also contributed but smaller amounts every law is the key to the contributors to the fonts in the proportion in which the contributor to the front which means that if you look at the total structural reforms russia has provided the bold eighty percent of the total and this means that russian contribution will be both peterson what is important to explain is that we actually do not have these multiple from the way the fund works is countries have made the initial contribution of ten percent cash so ten percent of eight point five eight hundred fifty million dollars all for this initial contribution the first appear regions of the fund the first loans which the fund is giving to its member countries have been funded including a part of the bill that was once we use this initial contribution would go to the

member countries requesting that they provide more cash within the limits of eight point five billion dollars. let's look at the markets now the chinese data is giving a lift to all branches trading at one hundred nineteen dollars a barrel although doubly ties losing about thirty cents to sell hovering at ninety seven dollars the market is also a fact train expectation saudi arabia will pump more crude after failing to clinch proposed by opec. european equity markets are high as investors took a positive view of economic data from china and swedish heavyweights are leading the gains after morgan stanley lifted its price targets on the global industrial group saying it provides the best risk reward among capital goods plus call shares when three point eight percent higher shares a pretty small group not care. over two percent after the company said it is reached a deal with apple and that one can dispute and here in russia the test in my eyes it's heading higher this hour let's have

a look at some individual share moves on the now is a better bank is lower despite announcing that profits more than doubled in the first five months of the year energy mages are among the biggest losers despite the relatively strong oil price coking coal producers is down on news of a production hold one of its mines. now russia's equity markets are in for a subdued couple of weeks but. capital believes fertilizer stocks could see some interest. if you think. mostly with three to six months perspective probably your focus on fertilizer soroka. within the reason of. emanate capitalists to essentially poor insect the human heart the global bergeron is positive the fundamentals of the company so strong so if i were to select one sector probably pick up the fortune was a cruel and thorough credit. and another fertilizer producer false agressor has

confirmed plans for initial public offerings in london and moscow now the company says is being valued at up to eight billion dollars with fifteen percent of its shares for placements psagot says it needs money for mergers and acquisitions. and facebook could raise up to one hundred billion dollars in a possible initial public offering reports say the giant social networking websites i.p.o. is inevitable and looks set to be held in the first quarter of twenty twelve recently russian search and the new young tech successfully generated one point three billion dollars and so i think. that's all for now i'll be back with more in forty five minutes from now talking.

thank you.
