this civilian area had been made by may take pride they want to duct by rockets on the sky people were killed children with my own hands with my own eyes i still am helping our little heroes who were killed and get the boys the father of the mother june families that is under this attack you can not justify does attacking. this incident consummates continue an intense bombardment all believe in my name manzarek turning job day and night we are all the time hearing sounds of having explosions russia which has always been against ministry means to stifle the protests and even conflict has recently signed a peace treaty a chance to leave it to try to explain to the warring sides to start talking often saying the rebels in benghazi and proper duffy people here in the fleet making money off has said that he believes there is time for peaceful solution of this

crisis with both sides saying they're ready for negotiations with the knees are now ready to provide an appropriate location for tolls puts people actually few extremely exhausted after months of devastating war which has already taken many many lives and has actually completely destroyed the country's infrastructure. rif an ocean our correspondent there well the libyan was already causing divisions in washington with lawmakers demanding a bomber explain his charging to libya and account for the expense of lack of progress but political radio host common russel's the chance he told us he doesn't believe congress will readily pull the plug. the problem is that when there was a prior lawsuit during clinton's foray into the former yugoslavia dennis kucinich and the group of other congressman even at that time filed a very similar lawsuit saying that it was illegal and it went to a district court but the district court said end of the individual congressman did not have any sort of standing the reality is i think still

a majority of congressmen are going to support the the actions in libya and afghanistan and so on congress is not going to. come and say that we shouldn't be doing this and try to define it and besides obama is currently using discretionary department of funds discretionary funds to get around it anyway so you know it's a question of how effective it would be if it works you know to 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. but we're coming up with the program including the tragedy of teen suicides. russia struggles to rein in there for demi given the experts say there's an all too obvious remedy at hand. also russia and china are agree on pumping gas though the price proved to be a problem but neither leave the summit empty handed after securing billions of dollars in business. three days into his job greece's new finance ministers

admitted he faces a quote real war incurring a raft of painful reforms to convince his e.u. counterparts to give greece new loans is much bigger task will be to get angry greeks on side to more of the cuts to jobs so this is you pay now the appointment was part of a major cabinet reshuffle to try and calm the deep seated fear of being shown on the streets of athens in the way god sisera firth was in the capital with the latest violent protests broke out. between the plane. people have one thing that was going on at the moment the police trying to find out that violence still breaking out no it's not cheap enough don't buy a lot of the people on the street the scene they see protest the plight with the gas mask tell they really don't want anyone to film that it's been said that the

people who are behind the provoking the. people still missing back on the central state even though you can have a trick i think that's off by the plate they turned out to protest against the proposed to start there i guess about the economic situation that's been happening in that country and they wouldn't have been all going to be able. to play for about really got anything to tensions between the people cranking the crowd the police out there getting ready to retaliate stuff. that. was a situation that kerry say that turned the first leaf back and the police are trying to send that 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 are throwing things so i guess since we spoke to some of the main organizers from the t.n.c. would like to protest today they said that they wanted it to be peaceful until the

end of june and so any of these measures were passed see the police still letting up take us into the crowd that incredibly hard to breathe only stays noted to pleasant for anyone there's lots of people getting medical treatment around the place. but the violence is really erupting and we're not entirely sure if these people when the gas masks that are provoking the place are actually part of the main prey said as he 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 the provocation happened when the police started to try and push them back so forth a correspondent in a sense of the way for a great journalist to be on a screw system it is was also among the general strike protests he blamed international bankers. for luring greece into a debt from which it can't escape we cannot pay all the money they hear it's very interest rates all the money we take is in order to pay the high interest rate this is this is robbery this is theft this is swindle i can't describe it anymore and the problem for them now is that people know that they realize that they see their

income dog going down they see taxes taxes taxes and nothing else unemployment you think unemployment is this is what they telling you know reality employment where it's twenty five percent and this is a chaotic situation and the order is possible for this situation is the international monetary fund the minister of finance this government has failed. this is british banks are getting jittery over greece apparently pulling billions out of funding the euro zone so they don't get stuck any more from a belgian parliament deputy speaker told me just earlier on tonight the bailout cash designed to cure europe's struggling economies is big pocketed by the wealthy instead crises. are considered big opportunities by big financial institutions it was from in the past and it is so today where is the money gone well i think you don't have to look sure the money has gone to financial institution to wealthy elites who are actually benefiting from this crisis so what

kind of bill are true for what purpose debt is the question we had should fall was look we give you all these tax payer money without any conditions so you can keep on going doing what you did that is not the kind of bailout advice was certainly and you know bit later this hour we've got an interview with german m.p. klaus peter velshi he shares his views about bailing out greece and why he thinks e.u. countries should look after themselves coming surely. now the czech republic this week announced it's backing out of the u.s. missile defense program planned for europe because it was frustrated by the diminished role it was offered the original plan to place an advanced radar of the country has changed for it to. host a less important facility the missile shield supposed to counter potential threats from so-called rogue states like iran and north korea but the plan's been facing massive opposition to russia which is concerned that its safety might be compromised they've also been protests in the czech republic itself one of the outspoken critics of the project is activist yan thomas she says only such

a system would only fuel global 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 place such a such a system here in europe this system without incorporating russia without talking to also other it world superpowers like china like india or the following or super fires that will be the biggest world economies in the in a far into years is really going to make a lot of tensions 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 some of the modernized economy cured of corruption is one of the top priorities and president very has to do list in which he outlined russia's directions in pittsburgh this week the international economic forum

a stage to breathe new life into the country's investment climate outright and some of the world's business and political heavyweights it is necessary sums up the showcase highlights. modernization based on stifling corruption d. centralizing power and government reforms all goals voiced by president made 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 over 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 and the whole of russia agrees with this without any exception 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 russia's economic development is it 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 still we are asked to make an unseemly large number of concessions 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 the top innovators and world leaders will president medvedev

run for reelection well it was the official last question of the form and this is what medvedev had to say yes. 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 so you will not have to wait much longer. every story requires some kind of intrigue for the why is there be no interest in living. so let's keep the intrigue a bit longer. and certainly no intrigue surrounding what platform medvedev would run on if he does announce his running for reelection it will be all about modernization reporting from st petersburg and yes the way r.t. . the far east also code to russia's north this week because china is the they joined the gathering in st petersburg calling for common efforts to get the global economy back on track would you describe the recovery is slow. and fraudulence had

more forms needed it followed his trip to moscow we're told failed to decide on a price to ship russian gas directly into china however the country's leaders did pledge to quadruple mutual trade within a decade and the journalist julian lee told r.t. that a closer alliance between moscow and beijing will bring economic benefits for both . try not to be a hugely important trade partner for russia both in energy terms and in general trade these are two countries that for many decades shared a political ideology least to some extent their share the longest land border in the world they ought to be much much greater partners than they are now if we look ahead russia is extremely keen to develop its oil and gas resources in the east of the country exporting those anywhere other than asia just doesn't make logistical or economic sense so really this is about russia spreading its wings.

you know everybody who can explore anything is looking at the asian market because that is where the growth is. us judge says the case against an alleged russian gun runner is and convincing and he's called for the prosecutor's evidence to be thin but lawyers claim the united states doesn't have jurisdiction to prosecute him and what the charges dismissed. in new york and explains more. he is the russian citizen america thought 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 it sound guilty on arms smuggling and terrorism related charges fifty years convicted. he's looking at life there's no parole there's no early release on the federal system really the only way 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 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 roy 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. that means that victor boot is not getting a fair deal to this day taia 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 more. it's clear to everyone that the case has long been moved from the sphere of laws 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 our dealing now finds itself a political arm twisting come october an american jury will decide if there be a future to a political pressure at surfside by the u.s. army evidently the arena for nine hartstein. well for more a background analysis had to out there were outlining all the data in the time but in the vic to show the whole story unfolded on.

fish fish. fish. iran has promised to be constructive and transparent with the u.n. nuclear watchdog it came as the united nations considered to sanctions on iran's atomic plants demanding proof their program was peaceful we spoke to iran's a voice to the i.a.e.a. who said his country no longer had anything to prove. many allegations was raised by the united states and i approved of their investigation taking samples and early to go process that all these allegations are baseless in fact before coming to vienna i was in charge of escorting all the spectre's and i was with them in this military size that it was would prove that this allegation had no basis is every unfortunate after eight years they are repeating these boring stories one thing is

clear that we do not have any program for nuclear weapons we are fully cooperating with i as i said unprecedented the most robust inspection in the history of why for five thousand mandy's gay have found no evidence of divergence of nuclear material to pray with their purposes and the statement claimed by lady ashton with due respect i categorically reject. one of the highest teen suicide rates in the world russia has now been jolted into action to try to reverse the worrying trend but experts say it's not that simple because there are several causes that can lead to tragedy if left i've noticed as other designer boyko reports no compassion is a cure but sadly it's a remedy that saw too hard to come by. just days before final exams a t.v. crew was reporting and students gearing up for the adult lives that lee had of them the teachers pointed to bullying at their brightest student who it seemed had her

future figured out which way should play 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 yet but instead of a school living celebration pullin his classmates gathered for here funeral something she may not be the best she ended everything and hang yourself with the genders and she will have been getting ready for the exam for weeks down believing i 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 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 in the have 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

presidents 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 mum 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 want to 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 given 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 that 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 spells one that seems policy frightening almost commonplace yet it represents what x.-press say is the main reason why russia is leading europe and the number of teen suicides that isin difference seeing no evil hearing now cries. kind of like an artsy moscow. also making headlines tonight a suicide bomber struck a german convoy in northern afghanistan the vehicle was carrying german soldiers

and was destroyed in the attack but nato says there are no true casualties however at least two civilians did die in the explosion the taliban says it carried out the bombing. argentinian coast guards have seen as more than four hundred kilos of cocaine on board a luxury u.s. registered to spaniards who fled the day before the police raid authorities say weapons were found on board including. the vessel capable of transatlantic sailing was about to head to europe. the operator of japan's devastated fukushima nuclear plant will open the doors of one of its reactive buildings now to try to vent radioactive gases it's to prevent another explosion tepco also admits it underestimated just how much radiation was filtered from coolant water the latest setback comes after the u.n. nuclear agency criticized tepco for its slow response and concealing the true magnitude of radioactive leaks james corbett is an online journalist and he told us

the risk to people's health remains very real. any new leaks of any kind are going to be an incredible burden on the efforts that are already on 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 risk of cancer and however negligible that risk may be with any particular person on any particular date any particular spot when it's averaged out over a large population like it's living in the fukushima region unfortunately means there will be over time an increase in cancer rates there and it's really just

a question of how many. and we turn from manmade disasters to natural ones in the next hour of the program looking ahead artie explores the unpredictable risk of avalanches what drives adrenaline junkies into the line of danger. one stream cascading from mountain slopes the view is midsomer much. of this beauty brings death at a speed of more than two hundred kilometers long. stepping down along one on. more action we take shortly to show everything from tennis to taser tackling a football on the pitch artie's we can sport on the air fifteen minutes from now my name is kevin i would say thanks for choosing r.t. international for more scope about where the headlines for a short of this sunday night.

to a substantial degree and one form or another socialism has spread the shadow of human regimentation over most of the nations of europe and the shadow is approaching upon all the print. of the early twenty first century military bases the network of military bases all around the forms of the movement

empire that the united states is trying to do that's astonishing most americans have no idea there are more than a quarter of a million more than two hundred fifty thousand u.s. troops stationed on these big. it's all around. we don't have power bases in america we don't have any british base we don't have any korean base we don't have any french bases or you know we just all american bases in our bases are fine or the noise is our noise and doesn't bother us at all because they're all bases but for older people it's almost like a cancer here for the speaker. since the end of world war two the spaces i've been . working here to provide a safe and secure environment for everybody. the

questions the thing else get everything you need. hello this is our team from moscow is kevin owen here on the half hour with our top stories now news review in the week that nato says it says strikes could have killed seven civilians in a botched bombing in tripoli raising questions over the block's plans to pound colonel gadhafi into submission and other news from the week americans accused of twisting tilings arms as a new york judge cast doubt on the legality of extraditing alleged russian arms smuggling big to boot to the states. and greece's new man on the money rolls up his sleeves to steer the debt stricken countries reforms offer a furious public rage against even deeper cuts in athens. and it's not just greeks are angry at the sacrifices that are being forced into full financial help from europe the germans are happy either about paying for the weaknesses of their

neighbors next a german m.p. tells us why he thinks e.u. countries should look after themselves. greece and portugal should leave the euro to save the european union according to german ruling paul t.m.p. klaus pizza will show mr walsh what will happen if you keep bailing them out you know and you would treaties. was regulated that there must be any bailouts because. otherwise. you would. ruin the applique finances of those countries who are contributing to it. as long as each country is responsible for its budgets it has to take full responsibility and the only right answer to that is no bailout

how do the bailouts affect the german economy in germany we are making a lot of efforts to keep public debt under control. we. just amended our constitution we put in there so call it shouldn't come as a dept break. which. defines the steps we have to take with our. budgets. in order to come to the zero nine and then start paying the debt back. and it is dangerous if this is. infected by. policy national policy of either you're a partner or say. well it's it is an invitation to a bigger my neighbor policy and you say ok if i don't get any more money from the credit.
