the time that a nonviolent negotiation is the only way out of the crisis russia has repeatedly criticized nato for starting a military operation here and has never supported a u.n. security council resolution which authorized intervention russian special presidential envoy mikhail margelov who was sent here to try to get everybody around the table that's actually very hard to achieve the rebel supported by nature allies wants to force gadhafi out while the colonel himself says that he will fight to the death meanwhile recently have been several signs indicating that a compromise is possible last week make a matter gallop met with the opposition leaders in the libyan rebel stronghold of benghazi and talked to cut off his cousin in cairo and said that both sides have a mutual understanding that a protracted war is not an option and the crisis should be resolved through peaceful means he also sad that he had

a feeling that the rebels are almost ready for a dialogue with gadhafi let people in tripoli we have been able to speak to our welcome in russia's afros they are extremely exhausted after months of war which has taken many many lives and has almost completely destroyed the country's infrastructure due to a shortage of fuel gasoline lines stretch for kilometers and kilometers people have to spend hours even days lining up to fill up their cars and it's tyree more overnight it continues to strike tripoli and we can hear bombardments mess of bombardments almost every night and that scares them as well while people are getting more and more angry at all they want to get their normal lives back frustration is high among the rebels as well as they feel as though nature. it's taken control over what's too bad is a national uprising it's too early to say whether russia will be able to bring peace and stability to leave it but what's clear among people on the ground is that

it's definitely worth trying. let's right now to get back to country as our who will bring us the latest on the russian chinese relations and view of the chinese leader a visiting moscow because we let's pick up from where we left off before we were cut off we know that the two leaders who jintao and president medvedev are meeting hot on the heels of the summit of central asian states and where the question of libya and syria was raised so is there an understanding on this issue. there most certainly is i mean almost. all have to apologize one more time we have some difficulties there was a signal but we'll be bringing you more on the story later in the program so stay with us for that in the meantime let's continue with the other stories that we're following for you here this morning on our t.v. so still ahead this hour a question of justice as alleged russian gun runner victor faces

a new round in the score battle with the gallery of the whole case the scrutiny. and find out how nationality is cast aside by explorer surviving in the freezing waters of the world's oldest continent. then you ass will now have to read just its missile defense plan for you were after the czech republic announced its dropping out of the project prague said it was frustrated and it's now my honor roll in the system the country was originally supposed to host greater base but president obama proposed stationing a less important facility there in washington claims the scheme aims to protect us from potential threats from iran or north korea but there has been strong opposition from russia which is concerned it is the target the czech republic has also seen massive protests activists who participated in the rallies says the

system will only fuel international tension. the czech people don't want such a thing here in this country we feel that this will actually undermine the security of both the czech republic and europe as a continent and so we think that it's completely contradictory to play such and such a system here in europe this system without incorporating russia without talking to also other world super powers make china like india or the following ours that will be the biggest world economies in the in the following few years is really going to make a lot of tension on the global scale and so it we should be wise and just start thinking about building security mechanisms and structures that will include all the big superpowers not just. moscow has asked for a legal guarantees that the proposed missile defense shield won't be aims at its nuclear capabilities so far the u.s.

and nato have refused to provide them and russia's and boy to the airline says the project seems more of a stretch to security rather than reassurance. the security of an individual or state consists of two parts the first is the guarantee given by law by the state the other participant mentioned by person's actions to provide his or her own security the same applies to what the more real guarantees are get from our partner the less will do to provide our own security and vice versa i believe the missile defense project in the way it's presented now is very provocative and unjust and it can be useful and fair only if russia gets to participate in it on equal terms with other states. and that was russia's and were to nato commenting on the alliances missile defense plans in europe. the greek prime minister is promising to reshuffle his cabinet and seek a vote of confidence in parliament after coalition talks with opposition parties

failed george has been trying to push through more cuts to secure a second e.u. and i.m.f. handout the plan sent over twenty five thousand angry people into the streets of athens on wednesday while unions held a general strike protesters clashed with police fired tear gas and demonstrators threw rocks at the banks there were a number of arrests and injuries some of the protesters tried to block off parliament to stop these from voting on the new sturdy clamp british hero influential for hours believes the buyout isn't going to help the big thinker because it's only is there to say the banks. one of the reasons that everybody is so determined to keep greece in the euro is so that the banks don't have to take a serious hit on their fourteen lending policies so something has gone seriously wrong with the banking system it's almost as if there's a lot of the holy alliance of politicians and bankers versus old many people and

i'm sure that's what the people on the streets of athens today feel like don't think the banking crisis is over i suspect but it's hardly begun. i mean many cases it might have been better to do what iceland did and say look these bags go bust these people lose their jobs these people lose their money that time fortunate about life and i suspect we're going to regret keeping the banks afloat and imprisoning countries like greece inside a currency union which they're just not suited. and caught up in a violent protest in the heart of athens for a first hand account is available on our website. to take up going up as we speak the phrase that they have not been able to have the baby very hard to breathe they love the people who provide it even one of the family had three cars here but. plus there are also plenty of other stories and videos that are to dot com including stunning images of a rare total eclipse of the moon on wednesday night. and your court

will hear of the next round in the ongoing legal battle over viktor but the russian man america accused of being an international arms dealer his lawyers and the prosecution will discuss the case with the judge but it is a waiting trial in a u.s. prison but as many import now reports the legality of proceedings is being questioned every step of the way. he is the russian citizen america fought relentlessly to adopt victor boot was secretly and swiftly extradited to the u.s. seven months ago and this may be where he stays indefinitely if found guilty on arms smuggling and terrorism related charges fifty years convict. he's looking at life there's no parole there's no early release in the federal system really the only was in the federal system to get a reduction in your sentence. a significant reduction is if you cooperate with the

united states government some have argued mr bush needs to be on captain america's team however captain america is being accused of playing dirty and illegally to remove the air cargo business man from thailand according to documents released by wiki leaks all levels of washington top to bottom mounted political pressure against bangkok to gain custody of boot in a us cable dated august thirteenth two thousand and nine us president barack obama was urged to call thailand's prime minister directly about boot the us attorney general and state department were encouraged to call the thai ambassador highlighting the massive drug enforcement administration commitment to thailand and the us ambassador in bangkok urged the thai government to issue a public statement of disappointment at the judge's ruling not to extradite boot america is the world's most powerful nation but it's not more powerful than the world unfortunately the way things stand right now they're willing to flaunt every

international law to get what they want and that means doing all these illegal things in the case of the mood to extradite him or should say kidnapping who was arrested in bangkok in march two thousand and eight during a u.s. sting operation he was charged with conspiring to sell weapons to colombian fark rebels on two occasions the thai court rejected america's extradition request when an entourage of armed u.s. agents removed him from thailand following a decision of the thai government his extradition was still not legally approved the covert operation was kept secret from russia boots family and his attorney. tell you the transfer of victor boot to america was a violation of very american treaties signed in one thousand nine hundred nineteen which these chemical offenders can be extradited roys the case was not finalized and was moved to the us let me repeat it was the reason you concern me. another step outside the boundaries of what you really want you to do that. is not good

enough for you to this day tire the shells have not provided official documents explaining the legal grounds behind boots extradition this despite repeated inquiries made by the russian foreign ministry that would support what we claim and know for sure that on november sixteenth two thousand and ten at the moment when victor boot was physically taken out of time prison this case was being considered by the thai court of appeals that is why there are no legal grounds for him to face the u.s. court. meantime victor boot remains in the u.s. prison held in solitary confinement his wife doubts her husband will receive a fair trial from the country she says violated international and bilateral laws to get him. it's clear to everyone that the case has long been moved from the sphere of law to politics i think or rather i would love to think that the american court

is unbiased but i have strong doubts about it because i think such pressure could be put on anyone including the jury. the country accusing victor boot of arms dealing now finds itself a little cold heartless to come october an american jury will decide the picture for the future to be a political pressure sized by the us army evidently. in a fortnight artsy. iran is promising transparency and constructive interaction was the un's nuclear watchdog the e.u. has been pressuring to iran to give evidence of its peaceful atomic intentions but in an interview to r.t. iran's envoy to the atomic agency says his country has nothing to prove and nothing to hide. many allegations was raised by united states and i you approved of the investigation taking samples and added to go process that all these allegations have basis in fact before coming to you and i was in charge of escorting all these

specters and i was with them in this way to size it which would prove that these allegation had no basis is every unfortunately after eight years they are repeating these boring new stories one thing is clear that we do not have a program for nuclear weapons we are fully cooperating with. the un please see dented the most robust inspection in the history of forty five thousand man days which i have found no evidence of diversion of nuclear material to prove we did purposes and the statement or claim by the lady has shown with due respect i could there go to give rejig. and you can see the full interview with iran's envoy to the international atomic energy agency about fifteen minutes time here on r t now let's take a look at some other stories from around the world and a half her group claims to have knocked the central intelligence agency's public

the importance of all the work that we all do here working together is vital for the survival of those at the different international stations as well in the winter medical evacuations are impossible because of the weather conditions. and a lot of this it is very important to cooperate without a stations where different doctors here with different specialties so we complement each other for example my main specialty is orthopedics trauma and i'm the only one here as you can imagine my specialty is in high demand here therefore neighbors get in touch with me quite often we also ask our neighbors to help us with diagnostic devices we don't have one of the areas where cooperation between countries is strongly evident is in the realm of scientific research where ideas and information are exchanged regularly so that multiple projects can benefit for example we are working right now with the germans who are further down the peninsula doing a survey and we will combine our data with their data at the camera meeting we also work closely with the british and provide any other help with scientific

investigators that come aboard our ship to conduct their search their studies as well. as here to different dive teams discuss how they can share information and samples between russia and germany. and beyond the lab different countries keep an eye on each other to make sure that all activities are in line. the antarctic treaty system an international monitoring program that helps protect the earth's southernmost land we've seen that just today visiting these people basically they all operate very closely you can very well treated both the russians the giants and the chinese but tacit sympathies the antarctic treaty i think is one of the unique treaties in world history in terms of that kind of cooperation and it is this special bond of working together in such an extreme environment that creates such a lasting friendships that thirty years ago when i came to the station for the first time one chilean put it very well leave the conflict to politicians we the

polar explorers have to live in peace because if we can remind ourselves who else can we rely on for help. in antarctica sean thomas r.t. . and as you shontelle is reporting from the world's coldest continent you can read more about his adventures and antarctica on his blog dot com. more than a month. one of the most extreme environments on the planet this is antarctica and people have to be aware that they're far away from civilization sean combs discovers flight makes antarctica so special and attractive for many the wildlife in antarctica is a bonus if you live in the front of. the expedition to the bottom of your artistry. and in just a few minutes we examine iran's nuclear program in our exclusive interview with the country's envoy to the un's atomic watchdog for that they will take a look what's happening in business with katrina.

thanks marina and welcome to the business bulletin here on ati we start with one of the most important russian economic events of the year the st petersburg international economic forum. all eyes are on russia's northern capital as the annual international international economic forum kicks off and this year presidential aide katy to divorce of it says this in petersburg form is more important than ever for russia as it begins to look east as well as west for investment tatiana funny cova brings a date. this is preparing to host thousands of gas heads of states and they could all be growth from all over the world will prevail long discussions all the new iraq in the global economy it will be all about the merger leadership expanding to

closer horizons and building capital to keep speakers at the forum both the russian friends. retrieve the better president of china jintao will see what they have to say and you will have the coverage all day around here. russia and china hoping a landmark gas deal will be signed as the chinese leader meets with president medvedev in moscow the deal follows the launch of an oil pipeline to china this year and is key to globalizing russia's energy energy trade it also hopes to gain increased bargaining power in european markets that currently absorb most of its gas exports jon on the other hand needs russian gas to help fuel its rapid economic growth and reduce the use of environmentally damaging called but despite common strategic economic goals the two nations are struggling to agree on gas prices. now let's have a look at how the markets are performing oil prices are gaining this hour after amazing

more than a four percent loss overnight the biggest one day drop in a month was spurred on by a spike in the u.s. dollar against the euro as greece's debt troubles appear to be worsening. shares fell sharply on a thursday and continue losses as investors react to pressure developments on greece's sovereign debt crisis and some disappointing u.s. economic data energy companies were also hit by we could crude oil prices with japan's inpex corp down two point nine percent and banks are among the main losers in hong kong with cultural bank of china down one point seven percent. here in moscow the markets will start trading in around two hours time both reality as on the my six closed in the red on weight and stay with energy majors and industrials among the main moves it's. even though investors do not expect major changes around the world they will be closely monitoring events in the u.s.

and greece that's according to the vice president of equity sales in a this is a markets could also be influenced by the support his big economic forum. investors will be tracking us closely because last week we just had a very bad week in terms of disappointments and it's not that things are going down it's just the pace in which growth is actually happening it's a bit slower than expected so i expect people to be focusing in terms of maybe whatever news could come out of the st petersburg forum not sure there is anything market moving there but you know in terms of specific names taxation because as you know we have an election year which is you know buy into populism so whatever comes out of there could be influential so keep an eye on that well that's all the business news for now but we'll be back in just under an hour with more stay with us for headlines next.
