the father and the mother who are families that is under this attack can not just get why is that during. this incident consummates been team here in intense bombardment all believe it by nato bombs are actually being dropped day and night we all the time hearing sounds of having explosions russia which has always been against ministry means to settle the protests and leave in conflict has recently signed a peace treaty a chance to leave its rights misplayed the war in size to start talking after missing the rebels in benghazi and drop it off the people here in st louis has said that he believes there is for peaceful solution of this crisis with both sides to say they are ready for negotiations with the knees are now ready to provide an appropriate location for tolls puts people actually few extremely exhausted after

months old for devastating war which has already taken many many lives and has actually completely destroyed the country's infrastructure. well the libyan war is already causing divisions in washington with lawmakers demanding obama explain his charge into libya and account for the expense and lack of progress but political radio host carmen russell slim chance he says he doesn't believe congress will really pull the plug. the problem is that when there was a prior lawsuit during clinton's foray into the former yugoslavia dennis crucifixion of a group of other congressmen even at that time filed a very similar lawsuit saying that it was illegal and it went to a district court for the district court said into the individual congressmen did not have any sort of standing the reality is i think still a majority of congressmen are said are going to support the the actions in libya and afghanistan and so on congress is not going to you know in mass come and say that we shouldn't be doing this and try to defund it and besides obama is currently

using discretionary department of funds discretionary funds to get around it anyway so it's a question of how effective would be it works in their benefit we do live in a military industrial complex type of world where they have they have the purse strings they have the power. well there's still a lot for you ahead this hour including the unmanned warfare in the gulf reports of a secret american drone base near you have an immersion along with outrage for the alleged civilian deaths and the latest attacks. russia and china are pumping gas though the price proved to be a problem but neither of the the summit empty handed after securing billions of dollars in business. and the tragedy of teen suicides russia struggles to rein in an epidemic even though experts say there's an all too obvious remedy. now three days into his job and greece's new finance minister has admitted he faces

what he calls a real war in carrying out a raft of painful reforms to convince his e.u. counterparts to give greece new loans his much bigger task will be to get angry greeks on side to bear more parts to job services and pay the appointment was part of a major cabinet reshuffle to try and call the deep seated fury being shown on the streets of athens r.t. surfer was in the capital this week when the latest violent protests broke out. with the clashes between the police on the protesters still going. on this. building by the crowd you can see the destruction that been found along the fence larry that was filled with. people who know one thing that was going on at the moment the police trying to find that final bill right now we've not. got my love of the people on the street sees the next people just them but when they got small

still they don't want to hold still but it seems that the people who are behind the provoking the police people still moving back on through the centuries but even though you can haven't got nothing that's off by the police they turned out the right time to get. there i agree about the economic situation. been happening in that country and they want it probably not going to be able to. play for about really got the committee thing the tensions between the people breaking into the crowd the police out there getting ready to retaliate. the crowd. look at the situation that the despair i say that they're trying to face the fact and the police are trying. their managing by the looks of things to push back the police actually off the central square itself there's a lot of the protesters who throwing things wearing gas masks and we spoke to some of the main organizers from the t.v.

and to organize a protest today they said that they wanted it to be peaceful until the end of june and so any of these measures will cause see the police the letting of take us into the crowd that incredibly hard to breathe only straight not it's too pleasant for anyone there's lots of people getting medical treatment around the play. but the violence is really a rope thing and we're not entirely sure if these people wearing the gas masks that are provoking the police are actually part of the main price that as we said the people we spoke to said they wanted it to be peaceful and it has been up until now up until early it's day when that provocation happened when the police started to try and push them by that. journalist illyana scree sister midis was also among the general strike protests and he was international bankers for luring greece into a debt from which it can't escape. we cannot pay all the money they hits they 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 doxies taxes and nothing else unemployment you think unemployment is this is what they telling you no realign employment will reach twenty five percent sure and this is a chaotic situation and the owner is possible for this situation is international monetary fund minister of finance this government has failed well greeks may be angry at their government for the crisis turandot but the germans are no less serious about having to pay for it next hour r.t. speaks a german m.p. klaus peter welsh who explains why he thinks e.u. countries should look after themselves. and you would treaties. was regulated that there must be any bailout because otherwise you will ruin the public finances so for those countries who are contributing to it as long

as each country is responsible for its budget has to take full responsibility the only right answer to that is no bailout. a modernized economy cured of corruption is one of the top priorities in president medvedev to do list in which he outlined russia's direction in st petersburg this week the international economic forum was staged to breathe new life into the country's investment climate and attracted some of the world's business and political heavyweights artes and he said sums up the showcase highlights. modernization based on stifling corruption dees centralizing power and government reforms all goals voiced by president medvedev at this year's international economic forum here in st petersburg where how russia is going to attempt to become one of the world's biggest and most effective economies was laid out. we shouldn't hesitate to say goodbye to many bad habits we should focus on the following

improving the investment climate in russia to create new jobs in the regions the creation of a modern police service and other security forces improving the effectiveness of the justice system and finally the modernization of government of course the main bad habit as the president calls it is corruption which he says is choking russia's economy this was his message to the country's officials that don't do business according to the law. the noose around the neck of those who practice corruption should be tightened in the whole of russia agrees with this without any exception if the government should be purged of corruption in a more decisive way and for that purpose we should in harms way those suspected of corruption are dismissed from public service another issue that's hampering process economic development is that not being a member of the world trade organization lately we're hearing from a lot of officials that exception to the w t o for russia is possible by the end of

this year the president agrees but says only under very specific circumstances. we have long been ready to join the w t o more than many other countries small or large and still we are asked to make an unseemly large number of concessions if this kind of approach is unacceptable russia will not agree to any evidently unfavorable solutions and of course presumably the one question on all of the minds of the business executives top innovators and world leaders will president medvedev run for reelection well it was there for yourself the question of the forum and this is what medvedev to say. sure when i consider it appropriate to tell you whether i will do it or not i will come out and say it this forum is not the best place for that one thing you can be sure of is that i will be able to avoid making that statement that you will not have to wait much longer. every story requires some kind of intrigue otherwise they'll be no interest in living. so let's keep the

intrigue a bit longer. and certainly no intrigue surrounding what platform advantage what is wrong if he does announce he's running for reelection it will be all about modernization reporting from st petersburg and it's the way our city. well the far east came to russia's north this week as china's leader joined the gathering in st petersburg calling for common efforts to get the global economy back on track hu jintao described the recovery as slow and fragile and said more reform is needed hu jintao described the recovery as slow as he said that followed his trip to moscow where talks failed to decide on a price to ship russian gas directly into china last year moscow and beijing agreed to start supplies of siberian natural gas to energy hungry kind of through a new pipeline which should be built by twenty fifteen dr biology shoes an expert in russia china relations is optimistic but says a deal worth a trillion dollars takes time. negotiation will be tough there will be

a lot of terms that need to be determined negotiated it takes time but i'm basically optimistic about finding a deal out of italy because of the fundamental factors are there this economy is a highly complimentary to each other so it must even be you it's find it will be a win win situation russia need to be more diversified in terms of the market. wants to also was about worth the fight it's the supply of energy sources for instance it used to depend heavily on the middle east so we all know the reason disturbance there so so tiny is hunger for a new energy source and suddenly if this if this deal with the rich and they can buy a large. amount of gas from russia they have to again to stable and long term reliable and the resources. a u.s. judge says the case against an alleged russian gun runner victor boot is convincing

and call the prosecutor's evidence thin lawyers claim the united states does not have jurisdiction to prosecute him and they want the charges dismissed artie's but in a port in new york explains. he is the wrong. citizen america fought relentlessly to adopt victor boot was secretly and swiftly extradited to the us seven months ago and this may be where he stays indefinitely if found guilty on arms smuggling and terrorism related charges fifty years could be. he's looking at life there's no parole there's no early release in the federal system really the only why 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 the us cable dated august thirteenth two thousand and nine u.s. president barack obama was urged to call thailand's prime minister directly about boot the u.s. 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 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. the case was not finalized and was moved to the us america used various means political another's outside the boundaries of due legal process to get victor boot that means that victor boot is not getting a fair deal to this day tire fishel is have not provided official documents explaining the legal grounds behind boots extradition. 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 want 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 accused of political arm twisting come october an american jury will decide victor boot future wall to day political pressure at surfside by the us remains evidently the arena point nine artsy new york. well for more background and law head to our team dot com where we outlined the data and time live in the victor boot case and there you can also watch how the story unfolded.

elections in egypt might be postponed as the country's current prime minister says a new constitution must be drafted first well the country continues to be under military rule during which around seven thousand people have been arrested since february's revolution activist david key says the uprising to install democracy has so far changed very little some have been jailed simply for criticizing the government others have been brought up on spirits charges of quote unquote insulting the military but increasingly and certainly given the incredible high number of detentions detentions of civilians not attentions of people who have you know tried to undermine the regime but people simply criticizing the military this is a very dangerous trend egyptian dissidents and bloggers who were imprisoned in military prisons and they describe incredible torture they describe electrocution they

describe waterboarding to describe the regular beatings and this was the egyptian military that stood behind mubarak until the last minute so while there have been gains and we hope that egypt has a brighter future ahead of it there are still many many challenges that it still has to overcome if you ship is going to move towards democracy and liberalism and openness in the west in fact has a very important role to play. check on some of today's main world news a suicide bomber has struck a german convoy northern afghanistan that vehicle was carrying german soldiers and was destroyed in the attack but nato says there are no troop casualties however at least two civilians died in the explosion last month two german soldiers died in the attack which also killed a regional police commander. argentinian coast guards have seized more than four hundred kilo of cocaine on board a luxury u.s. registered yacht two spaniards who found the boat fled the day before the police raid and authorities say weapons were also found on board including

a machine gun which was primed for use the vessel capable of transatlantic sailing was about to head to europe. the operator of japan's devastated fukushima nuclear plant admits it underestimated just how much radiation it would have to filter from coolant water its new decontamination system. for just five hours of operation the latest setback comes after the u.n. nuclear agency criticized tepco for its slow response and concealing the true magnitude of radioactive weeks james was an online journalist and also. the risk to people's health remains very real. i mean new leaks of any kind are going to be an incredible burden on the efforts that are already underway to try to clean up the water or decontaminated because they are now running out of space to actually store the contaminated water in the fukushima in the immediate vicinity of the

plant and i believe within two weeks they're actually going to run out of space so they're trying to get a system online for treating the water but apparently the test for that is going to be pushed back another few days it's already been pushed back from last friday there is no such thing as a safe level of radiation exposure that any level of radiation exposure increases the. the risk of cancer and however negligible that risk may be with any particular person in any particular date any particular spot when it's averaged out over a large population like is living in the fukushima region unfortunately means there will be over time an increase in in cancer rates there and it's really just a question of how many football spectators are often seen clashing with security officers but in the russian town of nizhny novgorod policing turned on a player instead a striker for st petersburg then hit squad was given a jolt of bolts by an officer he was hit when he approached his team's fans to

celebrate their victory police say the spectators became really but. these are gone players however a medical checkup confirmed the striker had suffered burns electric shock. and with one of the highest teen suicide rates in the world russia is being jolted into action to reverse the worrying trend but experts say it's not that simple because there are several calls that can lead to tragedy if left unnoticed as artie's acts on a boycott reports compassion is a cure but it's a remedy that's all too hard to come by. just days before final exams a t.v. crew was reporting and students gearing up for their lives that lay had of them the teachers pointed to bullying at the broader student who it seemed had her future figured out which way should play stage i want to become a journalist because it's very interesting and creative profession which would have been tossed to the world for me with this yet but instead of a school living celebration pulling his classmates gathered like

a funeral something she may not be the best she added everything and hank herself with agendas and she would have been getting ready for the exam for weeks down pulling i was the one who worked the hardest of all she sold out her marriage of math problems and she was very nervous she wanted to graduate isn't a great student you are 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 and teenagers kill 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 in filming the president's about it he found it hard to believe but the figures are truly frightening every year thousands children make attempts on their lives. girls are up to four times more likely to attempt suicide

yet it's still boys who by a long way actually succeed in killing themselves bigger is different his try to take his life three times the latest the 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 psyche. help is underdeveloped and not easily available then there is the stigma. committed in the state of emotional distress which builds over time for their own warning signs big even if parents notice that many would rather ignore them and to take their kid to a psychologist or psychiatrist which added to that continuing social and economic shift making it harder for parents to provide for their children leaving little

time for talking and listening this morning meant is that they cater to children who have fallen victim to adult biases alcoholism drug abuse prostitution and i want to go with can drive a child to take his or her own life but in the fancher of this overly wicked figure stands one that seems policy frightening almost commonplace yet it represents what experts say is the main reason why russia is leading europe in the number of teen suicides and that is indifference seeing no evil hearing now cries. artsy. the u.s. is stepping up its own modern drone attacks on yemen claiming to target al qaeda militants well there have been reports of a secret a cia base being built in the persian gulf with the sole purpose of taking down anti american terrorists if they manage to win through in yemen's power struggle it's thought that over one hundred people have been killed in the past two weeks

and witnesses on the ground say they included a lot more civilians than is being admitted in the u.k. attack helicopters and commando squads are being prepared for a possible deployment in the country british m.p. jeremy corbin believes the west is doing the direct opposite of what yemen for stability. if the west goes in with our starts bombing on behalf of unclear who then i think then that will make the situation markedly worse yemen has huge poverty and social issues it's the poorest country in the region its median age or population is less than eighteen has the greatest social discrepancies of any country in the whole region the last thing it needs is more bombing what it needs is peace what it needs is people coming together and it needs overseas aid to help it develop any government oh political unity emerges has to bring together all of the factions and all of the interest across the i cannot believe that drove me to

bring this about and in their haste to be involved the u.s. looked to me like you're in danger of making all the mistakes they made in afghanistan in one nine hundred seventy nine when they rushed in as part of the cold war anyone that turned up offering to fight on their behalf and thus was born the taliban. over the last century the u.s. has a stylish hundreds of military bases around the world and in just a few minutes we'll bring you a special report on this expanding web and the risks to the country's hosting them that's after a recap of our headlines in just a moment. it's

. called i'm back here's a recap of the weeks top stories on our team. seven civilians dead in a suspected nighttime and nato air strike in a residential area in tripoli as the alliance tries to bomb bolivia out of its three month stalemate. reeses new man all the money rolls up his sleeves to steer the debt stricken countries reforms after a furious public rage in athens against even deeper cuts. america's accused of twisting thailand's arms as a new york judge cast doubt on the legality of extraditing alleged russian arms smuggler returned to the states. as the u.s. has encircled the world with a trail of army bases with almost eight hundred military facilities spanning more

than one hundred countries all next the second part of our special report on how america is increasing its global influence. how they get the money to make them and who's giving it and. to protect us from. these are all questions somebody like obama shebang. it just didn't happen the empire it was it was designed and those bases just came along like you know some terrible cancer. when you see how much money is at stake in in the operations that go on every day

it's phenomenal the number of flights to take off from kadena air force base every single day involved just that one base in that one country on one day one have been fault thousands of gallons of jet fuel. and repair and maintenance and parts for those aircraft the rationale for these bases is that they're continually practicing and training and using the equipment and running the personnel through their paces and and feeding them and and so on and that is an incredibly expensive operation this is what. presidents in our it was warning against in his farewell address in one thousand nine hundred sixty one where he invented the phrase military industrial complex meaning hidden power power that was not really under the supervision of congress that. and that was often out of control represented private interests.
