a pleasant experience you need the kind of great. numbers of people who it could. be quite daring. to speak with a. nazi so. it's a place about the might. yes. you can see right now that the police need to get it done. to be done going to be another round of pick up. to date and the people that really got me. excited. did you know didn't let it get up to get out of got they got it right that. was. you know. that's our thought there reporting from the greek capital amid what appeared to be quite a chaotic situation plenty of yourself in what's happening in athens just twitter

where i underscore. details along with links to the latest analysis videos. journalist still young though so chris is in the midst of the general strike protests he's blaming international bankers for luring greece into a debt hole from which they just can't escape. we cannot pay all the money they hear it's their interest rates all the money we take is in order to pay the high interest rates this is this is robbery this is theft this is swindle i can't describe it any more and the problem for them now is that people know that they realize that they see their income don't going down they see taxes taxes taxes and nothing else their money does not go to the real economy period then everybody knows that if they don't come with a solution and they decide right we give you time to repay your loans but at the

same time we help you in this specific factor of your economy to recover and now at the moment you see hundreds of thousands of people greek people that they know they demonstrate they know that there is no tomorrow they know that they have no income unemployment you think unemployment is this is what they telling you no real and employment will reach twenty five percent sure and this is a chaotic situation and the only responsible for this situation is the international monetary fund the minister of finance i hear now that they will change him but it's too late somehow you know this government has failed. well while the greeks make their anger known about facing further cuts germans are no less furious about having to pay for it again later today german m.p. class says that's why e.u. countries should take responsibility for themselves. and you would treaties. it was regulated that there must be any bailout because.

otherwise. you will. ruin the public finances of those countries who are contributing to it. as long as each country is responsible for its budget it has to take full responsibility and the only right answer to that is no bailout. you with r t it's good of you to join us today and still to come in the program egypt's freedom to press the country's military rulers over the revolution that toppled president mubarak all amid allegations of army abuses sparking anger among citizens. while u.s. missile defense plans for europe have suffered a major setback prague is now refusing to take part in the system check officials say they're not happy with washington's offer as i got

a shot ski reports. prague wants a bigger role in this project the project of the european missile defense shield we understand that the initial plan meant so that only a preventive missile detection system would have been placed in the czech republic while major other major components of the system like the radar station or the missile anti-missile complexes in poland were meant to be placed in other countries like turkey romania there was an initial plan by the bush administration which was scrapped by the obama administration when he came to office in two thousand and nine the bush plan seriously irritated mosco with many claiming that this plan was directed against russia the obama plan the plan seemed to be much better seem to be much more convenient for all sides in that but in the past several years we've seen lots of contradictions between the words in the actions and mosco is still pretty much unhappy about the way this project is being carried out saying that on many occasions washington does something without the consent so the initial plan of

a united joint defense system in europe is not working out so far with this statement by president saying that in fact there are no legal guarantees that this system would not be used against russia because the rogue states which this missile defense system should be protecting europe from do not have the missiles which the system is intended for those missiles only are in possession of russia so clearly all this makes great serious concerns in moscow and the war of words continuous we are waiting for some comments to come from washington certainly but experts are now trying to guess whether this turnaround the fact that the czech republic wants to withdraw from this project is somehow related to moscow's continuous voice of discontent on that issue. reporting now iran says that it has no plans to possess nuclear weapons during talks with russia at a key summit of asian countries they've just wrapped up their meeting with leaders

which focused on tackling the raft of economic and security issues which face them . and yet reports from the summit. belonged be a meeting between russian president dmitri medvedev and. it was a closed door meeting however afterwards foreign minister sergey lavrov did come out and said that. it did confirm to president medvedev that iran is in total renouncement of. nuclear weapons now this is important because the nuclear nonproliferation has been a major topic here at the summit as well as the controversial nuclear program of iran and also discussed at that meeting is the. plan of iran to to get rid of the u.n. sanctions because the u.s. is really moving to be a hurdle. for membership into d.s.t.o. but aside from iran to get it also met with. and here they have discussed of

course the a drug situation in the country which is threatening the security of russia as well as the potential business deals of the two countries big deals apparently because russia is so willing to contribute a lot to the rebuilding of the country. whole range of important issues that are happening in the world today as expected they had been a very vocal about the situation in north africa and the middle east and they have come up with an official statement which does reflect what they have been saying all along that the international. involvement in those parts of the world really have to adhere to international law particularly in libya they're calling for the troops there calling for nato in particular to adhere to the u.n. resolution one hundred seventy three and nine hundred seventy that had allowed for the no fly zone over libya do not agree with further military involvement in such situations also with foreign minister lavrov have issued

a statement on syria saying got russia has not and will not change its position on the matter and that for russia would be against an. on the syria security in the region that was at the top of the agenda the presence of afghanistan here has been a very important it has brought a lot of issues to the table i've got a status here as a guest and they want to be observer to the c.e.o. one of the key issues is the post nato future of the country that members do believe that the stability of afghanistan is essential to stability. and also of course topping that agenda with regard to. the drug situation this is very important for russia and they have all acknowledged that they have to come up with a common strategy in dealing with this president of reiterating again and again how important this is for russia let's hear what he had to say on the matter. afghanistan. which.

is a country with hugely important. information . and also they have made a statement on the fact that a unilateral missile defense system is going to be a threat to international security by unilateral decision made by one country or by one group at the last but not the least india and pakistan have explicitly expressed their intent to become full members and it is hoped that by joining the c.e.o. this will ease the a rather tense relationship between the two countries. reporting right there and there is more to come on this in just a few minutes we are planning to talk live to the head of the iranian nuclear energy program on president. stay with us for that now we are keeping a close eye on the. regular updates. among.

makes moves to become an active member. of. the united states grows cold also online. spectacle right in the heart of. the years of. take a look around in our galleries. now the west is weighing in on yemen's ongoing unrest with deadly force officials in the troubled country say u.s. drone strikes have killed over one hundred people including civilians in the past two weeks now that attack helicopters and school boards for possible action in

yemen. has more on this from london. they are becoming more and more involved saying we will retire but we don't want to get any more involved in the conflict in yemen any more involved in libya than we can help it any more involved in the middle east as a region as a whole apaches attack helicopters we've seen them in in general. in iraq and in afghanistan and of course most recently in libya where involvement was seen as a marked escalation in the involvement of u.k. and french nato troops there very low flying civil likelihood of casualties is much increased by a presence there and it does look like an escalation of involvement again as we've said so many times about libya the legality of this is extremely clear we are seeing u.s. drone attacks increasing numbers of u.s. drone attacks in yemen and the reasoning for that is. according to u.s. forces is taking advantage of what's going in going on moving into this power

vacuum which is being created since president saleh left and went to saudi arabia for medical treatment moving into that helping the activity taking advantage of general civil unrest to grab more support more and more territory so that's the reason for the u.s. paying these drone attacks that's how it's justifying it but of course that power vacuum works both ways interestingly the u.s. forces the military forces used to cooperate with the president on who to attack and when intelligence kind of these kinds of territorial issues but now the u.s. can easily say that there's no authorities with with whom to cooperate the government is essentially not in operation anymore so if they if they wanted to one would have thought that they could just go ahead wherever they like and of course we've now seeing president obama ok the use of cia drones now cia drones will have a much more you really miss and much. selection of targets that they can they can and we've also heard reports from a deputy provincial governor in yemen saying that one hundred thirty people have

been killed in drone attacks just in the last month and that many of them were. what appeared to be innocent civilians and then of course the last thing is this secret cia base for drones that we head is being built in the persian gulf region we're getting reports of that all the time and that is in case the yemeni government. no longer permits these drone attacks in the country they need a base with which from from which to fly there is a really a very much more involved in terms of both the u.s. and the u.k. . lauren it right there ok let's go to some other headlines from around the world for you this hour starting intelligence says that at least fifteen alleged insurgents were killed in a u.s. drone attack in northwest pakistan a series of strikes targeted a suspected militant compound near the main town in pakistan that south waziristan tribal area the region is known for housing many taliban insurgents who frequently carry out attacks against the government forces. syria is calling on refugees who

fled to turkey to return to the town they abandon iraq to be moved into groups the government says regain control and will continue to pursue what it calls the remnants of terrorist groups eight thousand people left the town are now in refugee camps on the turkish border syria is in months of brutal crackdowns on protests to try and force the president to quit. a suicide car bomber has struck in northeastern afghanistan near a governor's building it killed seven including some police officers the taliban's admitted the attack which targeted the french ambassador and a military convoy a separate attack occurred at almost the same time just south of the capital when a rocket was fired on a police training center the vice president and interior minister was there but there are no reported injuries. well egypt's drive for democracy has seen thousands of arrests media censorship and a state of emergency since replacing president mubarak it's not what egyptians were

hoping for after the february revolution left hundreds dead many wonder whether or not the price was worth paying out is worth an awful reports from cairo haste to have never sleeps. the eighteen day uprising that ousted president mubarak has woken up the hell nation these has become a common scene here and this two. amnesty international estimates at least eight hundred forty people were killed and more than six thousand wounded during the protests that forced a tyrant to step down but even in mubarak free country the resume for fear and frustration. right his brother was among fifteen young men killed in the violent religious strife that he cairo just weeks after the revolution egyptian christians and muslims clashed following reports the d.m. christian woman was kidnapped and held in a coptic church after she married

a muslim and converted to islam but even then he was a christian coptic it wasn't a muslim that killed around his brother let alone as an army sniper shot my brother dead a bullet went through his forehead and it came out on the other side and i saw it if no one here has a weapon like this only soldiers there it's hard to grasp what happened. rather blames the army for taking the life of his younger brother and the revolution so given the army so much power. we expected the army to intervene to protect people just don't mind answering but instead they started to kill people themselves who didn't expect that at all that if the people of egypt didn't expect many things they didn't expect the economy to collapse they didn't imagine the path to a free and democratic society would be such a bloody and painful one they just wanted to free from dictatorship and didn't

expect it all to find themselves under get another one in military one the power in egypt now since mubarak is out rest firmly in the hands of the military chiefs of staff. they were sitting literally in the pentagon war room when the twitter revolution started they are running the show there has been an old displacement about military power but this is a washington installed as i call it in my book full spectrum dominance to tell a tarion democracy the people who stood on to his square were jubilant the regime that oppressed them for more than three decades was going on with our zero zero zero zero as they call the dictator would soon finally face justice for what he's done but months on the revolutionary euphoria has got as well and people are asking themselves was that really was the hundreds of victims and did they really get a better country in. egypt is at the crossroads it could go towards chaos or democracy the worst scenario would be the army continues to rule in the country

sinks into blood from a civil war it's up to the people to decide. months since the free it shook the whole arab world it's clear the revolution may now be a part of history but the fight is far from over. well you were with r.t. live from moscow and on the way for you know we plan to speak to iran's nuclear and voice to the united nations to hear more about his president's pledge to never have atomic weapons and to bear in mind any of the stories that you missed on air you can always find out. our website and in a few moments it's the business with korean. culture is that so much that there is nothing i mean if you would like to hear a real. it's being described one of the worst meetings we have ever had is the

take a look at how the markets are doing all is near one hundred dollars per barrel as u.s. supplies for more than expected its concerns about raising demands are supporting the price of the american petroleum institute reports a decline in u.s. and the tories last week limiting games though is the news that u.s. retail sales are not as bad as expected stocks in the u.s. slide are raising most of the previous day's rally with commodities leading the fall the dow jones is down point six percent and the nasdaq is point six percent lower as well investors are concerned about the debt crisis and greeks. markets in europe are losing ground with worries about greece regaining momentum and french banks are down after a related review of their ratings by moody's investor service and shares the swedish retailer gains and more its problems point to receive results. here in russia markets closed in the red raising early against now let's have a look at some of the individual moves energy majors were mostly lower with gazprom
