the man had asked him to police to check his pockets for his mobile phone because he wanted to talk to his wife. particular matt is now in hospital. being treated for his injuries well let's hear from one of the witnesses about what he had experienced. then we heard a man screaming. turn around to my house. but we were walking around the houses that are just just right next to the road where the plane crashed knocking on their doors and talking to them and most of them for them the worst part of the night was hearing the cries of people who were still alive. at the moment of impact because of subsequent explosions south of the initial one they were able to help those who had died. on the stand. being examined right now. anymore.

well yes the examination of the flight recorder will definitely be key to this but that will take some time but since the accident had happened there have been several theories presented and a lot of those are based on physical evidence where if you can see right behind me these are the trees that were bird when the plane had landed too early apparently had descended too early and just across the street which is about a kilometer is the airport so we can see marks over here just based on physical evidence that there had been. also the bad weather conditions that perhaps it had been a pilot error but we have spoken to people here who were quite upset that they were saying that it's easy to blame the pilot because he's not here to defend himself some of them are saying that it's actually the airport which is not very well maintained it was somehow experiences of having a hard time where the plane was landing so a lot of fear is being thrown out investigators however don't know. want to stick

to one theory they're exploring all possibilities and of course the flight recorder is essentially. a commercial plane that would have landed on schedule ended up in pieces and in flames this double of one three four carrying fifty two people from moscow to better as a vodka northwestern russia crashed on a road around a kilometer from the runway airport officials say the plane hit a high voltage power line that cut off lights on the runway which also knocked out the town's electricity. at around midnight the lights went off in our house we were going to check the electric transformer when we heard the sound of a huge explosion we arrived at the scene of the accident yeah plane was seriously damaged we could see its wings justing out of the bushies there were bodies scattered all around the field there were lots of them i carry three people out of the wreckage one was either a girl or a woman i could not sell but she was larger than the man was hard to see was dark

then there was a man he also wasn't happy he was launch and then me and then we carried out two more people from the wreckage in the middle of the road another man reached out his hand towards me but i couldn't make it to him everything started exploding i could not get any closer everything was engulfed by fire so very. initial reports point to human error and bad weather conditions at the time as possible causes of the crash ground staff at the local airport claimed they had asked the pilot to make a second approach but he said he'd make it the first time however investigators say there are several theories and nothing has been ruled out just yet. we're looking into several versions of what caused the tragedy these include the human factor such as an air of the crew or the ground services severe weather conditions technical failure and several other potential causes but some would argue that in most plane crash a human error place the biggest. part. of which i don't think anything would go

wrong with the plane itself in forty years of operation the tupolev one three four has proved an extremely reliable aircraft in previous catastrophes human error was always to blame and the same is true heres the pilot should have made a second landing approach this is exactly what happened to the polish presidential airplane while investigators work on the case relatives of the victims and survivors are dealing with their own grief one shared by the people of bettors avoids declaring three days of mourning tests are still here r t in the russian region. the greek government has narrowly won a key vote of confidence in the prime minister to continue his fight for more cuts parliament has to decide whether to impose austerity measures with billions of euros in order to secure a second bailout lifeline the country's parliament economy sara first reports on the streets and sharing the government's vision. is considered by many to be the

best place of democracy but increased now the lightning gap between yank that the people and the government is preaching explained. we are a mix of people that have no political collars and we are all together to say that we cannot be and that. we cannot call. the measures measures that they take for us without us and we want to take out large buck demonstrations held on the central square now on a daily basis with some of the protests turning violent the protesters say the suffocating take us nothing compared to the a sturdy measures that they fail a strangling their economy their people are being refused very right. what policies are going to be implemented. and of course the great govern. is an

accomplice to this of popular sovereignty i mean we're not one of anymore in the proper sense a sovereign country when the i.m.f. can dictate policy when the european and the european union and the i.m.f. the so-called troika can come and say listen these are these are the measures you're going to implement you are going to implement them whether you like it or not we can see in a way we're facing a very peculiar form of dictatorship by the european union the european central bank and the i.m.f. they finance chiefs a desperate not to see the first year raising suffering default and they're rising concerns about the crisis that could trigger. i think very chance of a domino effect if greece. announcer default and this is their problem and this is the reason why the europeans are helping greece but in fact we are here pingers because they don't want this domino effect

and because they want to take all very short of greece. sixteen percent to the quick what full sun employees western economic conditions here in queens to us saying dream same's is a. to get people worse off as were before over there were uprising or there would be a lot of violence in the streets the people have said that when that turning out into the streets and then millions and the government continues to push ahead with the pace measures well then they deign to have democracy anymore. the government is trying to grab the people refuse to be governed in this way every day that this connects becomes more and more dangerous. about the reef and really a world away from what's been happening on the streets recently the question a lot of people you know just when will reach boiling point lenny when he was on the streets of athens to witness the violence that is already past that point the

question a lot of people are now asking is really how much does this guy. who was on the streets of athens when protests hit the capital you can read all about her experiences to go think greece and her blog you can find us on our web site www dot com. tens of thousands of candles have been former soviet republics today to commemorate the twenty seven million people who died fighting against hitler's army on this day seventy years ago nazi troops invaded the soviet union into the great war the bloodiest in the region's history thousands in moscow held vigils for a time when the german army used to front a ceremony it was also held in the city in which the brunt of the first offensive

the nazis deployed. to move in on the breast fortress but failed to break. the truth is there for us. being here inside the prettiest fortress on this day seventy years after the start of the great passion war makes you not only see the visual damage to the citadel of but is the forefront of that war you can also feel the human coast of those terrible times dance from the walls of the fortress maybe you cannot see clearly behind that smoke is a living reminder about that the roches night thousands of people were buried alive on these four square kilometers on the night of the twenty second of june nineteenth forty one here also love to behind several inscriptions like the one on a wall i'm dying but i want so we're not leaving for us we keep

fewer and fewer witnesses on the first day of the war and the horse which followed after here is the story. you would like any careless child i had plans that evening i wasn't afraid when they started shelling i only remember that something exploded and my bed was thrown into another corner of the room. not only four year old canady was unaware of what was happening his father an experienced red army officer was also caught flatfooted that night seventy years ago before i was at his house with my mother my father who was later defend the breast fortress this was our window on the first floor my father was sure there could be no war this is what the party get saying he thought it was an earthquake he grabbed his accordion and ran outside my mom stopped and told him this is war. the war for which the nazi military the very mocked had come up with

a name for long before blitzkrieg but his seach they'd planned would last just hours instead was to go on for weeks in a fierce battle with those. defended to the death the real scorches became the size of the first major fighting between soviet forces and the viet market there was no warning when the nazis invaded on the night of the twenty second of june one thousand nine hundred forty one the bombardment of the garrison by surprise that army officers was brought out and passed on from there i mean nation but even this didn't stop them to pounding the fort in fear of battles until the last survivor stories of the heroic resistance quickly reached different fronts soldier me glass of received the news far away in the republic of call me in northwest russia it was a deep grief silent pain for our people trapped here everyone knew that the german

army was much stronger every day we receive reports that the enemy marched another hundred kilometers deeper into our home and the nazis were in a hurry at the gateway to vast country they bore him to the breast fortress with devastating intensity up to sixty six missiles a second archive footage from the time shows the fortress seal or didn't have a smoke hundreds were killed in their sleep during the first minutes of the attack among them small children some survived the night only to be buried alive later this is my second mother when the nazis rounded up refugees scattered in villages nearby this woman saved me the germans dug a mass grave into which they were about to throw women and children this woman pushed me and my mom under her skirt when the german slaughtered everyone around and left this woman took me out from under as good cross to me and said i just did what god told me to. after nine days of fierce fighting hitler's forces captured

most of the fortress but their losses amounted to almost nine thousand there were reports that isolated defenders remain true. existing the nazis as late as august one hitler and mussolini personally visited the site of the battle it's claimed that a stone hitler picked up from the remains of the fortress was found in his office after the war. i'm often asked what was the biggest award for you the one most valued from that war the most precious award for me is that i stayed alive everyone was fighting like true heroes but few survived but could i understand it four years of age nothing it's only now that i'm a father and grandfather myself that i realize what a life is worth now in a fierce pacifist i hate war i don't understand how one human being can do violence to another i've lived my life never doing any harm to anybody. in the chill while

our team. bellows. the u.s. is tightening financial sanctions on the libyan government as some members of congress call for a one year extension of america's military role in the country while the intervention has been hit by continuing criticism over the number of civilian deaths and storing that lawrence davidson says the u.s. and nato have made themselves hostages to conflict. what is causing to question is the original justification for american intervention which was humanitarian my own personal opinion is that that was. a just a media story for domestic consumption you cannot enter being anywhere with this level of munitions and not kill civilians so ok you're going to protect civilians by intervening with the type of munitions that cannot

avoid killing civilians i don't think that nato and its commanders and the president and the politicians involved in this are be. randa point of no return so they simply cannot stop ok in terms of their own mind what they've invested in this and therefore they will end up doing whatever is necessary to secure victory in libya and they will project media stories to cover it. the lawyers for the european commission have announced that the proposed deal allowing america to store personal data on passengers flying between europe and the us is illegal that's according to a report u.k.'s guardian newspaper the u.s. wants access to credit card details numbers and home addresses transatlantic passengers as part of its anti terror measures to let discuss the consequences of

an agreement we're now joined live by young. members of the european civil liberties committee will thanks for joining us do you agree with the european noise that the deal is illegal. yeah i think that this is a clear sign that. there's an agreement which is not in line with the e.u. treaties and the fundamental rights carta. provisions like a long data retention periods or profiling measures. which are not in line with the judgments of the european court of human rights and some constitutional courts also of european states france and germany have opposed the proposal while britain and ireland support it could this spill over into a greater discord within european union do you think. no i think at the moment it's an overwhelming majority in the member states and also in the european parliament opposing this agreement in this form of course differences in the way

people. are dealing with this in the way they argument but at the moment the e.u. . together in its position that this agreement should be improved or changed . of course britain's more open for data processing in that form but i think there's a majority of member states and the european parliament who want to have strong fundamental rights and clear rules for data protection but america says it needs passengers personal data in order to fight terrorism crime and illegal migration is not a good thing. of course we need to fight terrorism and organized transnational crime but as you said they want to use it also to fight the faults of crime and immigration measures and to create immigration measures these provisions which are open to everything so even if you are suspect of drunken driving or

something like this you could be suspect of use p.n. are. profiling measures and this is far too much as the europeans always said those data can only be used to fight terrorism and organized transnational crime this purpose is not met and this is one further point why we oppose this agreement and why we don't think this is proportionate in the line of our law when you say far too much and not proportionate what form would you suggest instead then. i think that there are less intrusive measures like direct access to information when there is this suspicion and statistical investigation and on an anonymise database to have a look where people are traveling where people are going perhaps suspicious from their behavior but don't use personal data and i think that there should be

a way down to such an agreement to such a measure to strongly more strongly corporate but protect the personal data of the citizens in europe and worldwide ok i have to leave it there. thank you indeed for joining us here live now to thank you. and you can check out our web site for more news and eye catching videos here's a taste of what's online few right now as the u.s. steps up its drone attacks against militants in the middle east of the growing number of civilians caught up in the strikes is sending crews in the arms of extremists. and the. ecologists are sounding the alarm of the notorious dancing bridge in central russia to r.t. dot com to find one is constructed spent almost two hundred thousand dollars pointing treaties that without a chance take root. or the business known as business

news now i should say that to make sure. and welcome to business tsotsi russia's seen considerable capital outflow in the past nine months as investors risky assets the perception of risk is that despite relatively strong economic growth in the country and about its budget now joining me to discuss the investment prospects in russia is all of a need a president and c.e.o. of king international thank you so much for being with us mr. so you've opened shop in russia about a year ago right last year why did you choose this time just operations or actually we think it's the perfect timing because we mainly advise global corporate clients

to communicate basically around their investments or their anticipate in the us and into russia we also work a lot for leading russian companies to attract foreign investment and present themselves on the international capital markets so in hindsight we've done very well it was one of the most successful organic office starts and we are actually very bullish for the russian capital market going forward and why is that. very much in gauging in two brics why it. emerging markets strategies anywhere for clients a lot about corporate clients which is about nine hundred corporations worldwide a lot of public companies multinationals very much focusing on brics credit trees and russia is obviously an integral part of that would you say there is a perception gap between the reality of doing business in russia and what actually international players think about it i think they're still loose but it's definitely getting smaller and smaller by the day all v.s.b.

there are still challenges around transparency disclosure corporate governor. but i think the russian government i think russian corporations are addressing those and i do think good situational investors across the globe are recognizing those efforts go into a bit more detail about those challenges transparency you say is the challenge now why exactly what exactly do you want to see happening well i think what the instant institutional investor community wants to see is some kind of global convergence of certain standards around disclosure transparency around corporate governance at the same time i think the corporate world when you look at the investor relations professional when you look at financial communications how corporates communicate to their stakeholders they also try to converge to some kind of global standard of principles and the more you see this conversion the closer the russian standard operating model gets to that i think the better shape of the russian capital market will be. what are your just what prospects does this go into that again about how

russia will be seen in the future do you think that's going to change the perception is capital of order to stop and maybe capital inflow oh i mean it's hard to charge especially in the post crisis world when you look at capital inflows and outflows because obviously there are so many when you look at china brazil whatsoever what happened over the last couple of years i don't think it's really fair to look at that recent history and try to project that in the future i do believe if and when russia continues down the path it is right now heading that it's going to be a great investment environment for both institutional investors and strategic investors i will the regimes to do more business in russia and i will wish you good luck out of the need of my presidency of king worldwide thank you so much for being with us. all right let's move to the markets so we have time for that european markets started wednesday in session on a negative number pretty much still there as of the dax is now up
