a very warm welcome to you this is our live from moscow i'm wrong. well a flotilla of humanitarian ships carrying aid and supplies for gaza is set to depart from greece is reported to be made up of ten vessels with some five hundred activists on board israel warns that its military is quote gearing up to intercept the aid mada also want to warning journalists that they could face a ban and deportation for covering the events. has more from tel aviv. well the mission has been called freedom of the two and it consists of ten ships comprising some three hundred and fifty activists from twenty two countries now the plan is for them to set sail from greece later this week but we're already hearing from one of the ships which is an american ship that's been called the american boat to gaza the audacity of hope it complains that the greek authorities are not allowing you to leave and in a statement that was read out by passengers on board that ship they accuse the

united states of using the leverage of has with i image to put pressure on affluence with the stage is seeking economic balance in a separate development the israeli government has warned that any journalists who plan to stay with the tele will be deported from israel and prevented from entering the country for another ten years that was that end of may last year and at that stage it consisted of six. but that attempt in disaster when israeli commando units stormed the lot just off those ships it was a boat that was operated by the i h h that israel considers an extremist organization but which turkey itself is a humanitarian organization and nine passengers nine turkish citizens on board were killed in an effort to prevent a similar kind of outcome the israeli security cabinet has been holding an emergency meeting today the sake of such meeting in two days it's trying to look at alternative ways of dealing with the suspect that the latest word we have is that

it is saying that it will not allow the ships to dock in gaza that they have the option of either docking at the israeli port city of ashdod or at the egyptian city of rishon already carter has indicated that it would assist the ships that plan will in fact decide to settle their israel far into saying that they need to check the cargo on board and only off to feel satisfied that there are no weapons and no ammunition while they then take a commitment upon themselves to deliver the goods in their entirety to gaza now it is important to remember that this be. ok that israel has imposed on gaza has been in place since two thousand and six but since then citizens in gaza have been on able to receive many basic foodstuffs many ice in the last it's all has eased the strict sense but still humanitarian organizations both inside and outside gaza claim that the situation is deteriorating and they talk about a humanitarian disaster. right now it appears that libyan leader moammar gadhafi is

not only being targeted by nato jets but the international criminal court also has a minute sites judges and. arrest warrant for gadhafi and his closest allies on charges of crimes against humanity. and i'm going to live for more details on this . the court's decision that coincides with the one hundredth day of nato's military campaign in libya what is he facing. well at this point we know that this is only the second time in the court's nine year history that. such a warrant has been issued for an acting head of state the previous time when such a warrant has been issued was for the sudanese president. a warrant however he still has not been implemented or put into action so what now for. the court. to decide on that as you have just said the bombing i believe in capital continues in fact there were reports of some extremely heavy artillery fire in tripoli just this morning not too far from from from moammar gadhafi compound not too far from

the hotel where journalists international journalists are staying now the international court has been set up in order to execute in order to prosecute heads of heads of state or other officials wanted for crimes against humanity or genocide if their own country will not or cannot do so and this apparently is the case in this instance now libyan authorities have already said that they are not they are not perplexed by their decision of the c.c. because they said that they have not signed. the rome treaty which has been set up which has set up the court however he says the libyan authorities have to comply with its sanctions because the request for such a warrant for the warrant of arrest was actually forwarded to the i.c.c. by the un security council in february and therefore it libya has to comply with

the i.c.c. decision because it has to comply with the u.n. security council resolution. and so on through the winter they live in brussels thank you. still to come on the program democracy with a search for us and answers a new program to help across. globe some suggest it's just a convenient way to overthrow governments. the criminal case which cost of domestic scandal and international intrigue may soon be closed the head of a british hedge fund accused of tax fraud in russia of the most wanted list. now the man who blew the cover of a group of russian agents in the united states last year has been found guilty in absentia of treason and desertion by a moscow court intelligence colonel alexander fled the country before the scandal

last june which saw ten agents including chapman arrested. outside of a has been following proceedings. this very high profile case has been deemed top secret and classified so most of the proceedings that took place in moscow's military court were held behind closed doors and every shred of evidence and witness statement that was submitted throughout the course of the trial was also classified and top secret but we do know that has been stripped of all of his you know it's the ranks and achievements and found guilty of treason and sentenced to twenty five years in prison of course at the moment that really doesn't affect his life that much because of course he's not in russia to the court he's most likely hiding somewhere in the united states and he left for the united states just a little over a year ago and according to information voiced in the court room that was a complete surprise to everybody including his wife she found out that her husband

had deserted her her family and her country from a text message which he sent to her saying mary i'm sorry i hope you find a way to forgive me this isn't for a while this is for ever alexander quite safe has been working with u.s. intelligence officers for at least a decade out of those people whose cover he blew and of chapman perhaps one of the most famous and media. liked characters she picked him out of a photo lineup saying that this is in fact the man that she met with in the united states according to her statement she felt somewhat uncomfortable after her meeting with him and contacted her superiors in moscow which then confirmed her suspicions but of course by then it was too late and ten people were sent out of the united states being found guilty of being unregistered agents of a foreign government. reporting right now the japanese government is starting

a radiation checks on the millions of people living near the stricken fukushima nuclear plant it's being revealed that fifteen people living for kilometers from the facility showed signs of internal radiation exposure when examined last month. was found out many trust the safety warnings. in a culture that is generally non-confrontational and obedient when thousands take to the streets of tokyo against nuclear energy it is a serious sign of discontent if after this crisis it is true that the people are more conscious and we need to take advantage of it this is the first time since the second world war the japanese people have no trust in the government the walky of coastal city devastated by the earthquake the tsunami and on the edge of the radiation exclusion zone is starting on the long road to recovery but the people living here say the government just isn't doing enough from the thirty hauler like iraq the day they said different things like perfect or they said different things

and the government they said different things. they're not together or part of the country. they are a part but some believe it is too early to tell what the real dangers of the situation or scientist to know that large doses of radiation even in one blast is a significant health threat but they say there isn't enough information about long term exposure to lower doses of radiation and the types of damage it can do if you take it here. or ideation level and then breeze in when you take water you always feel half different values because it's so close and it's so changing so you can hardly say but it's really exceeds what a normal person would have by a year one of the frightening things about this entire incident is that there are no concrete boundaries that can clearly guarantee your safety one example is this looks like a beautiful lush green valley behind me but in fact this is the very head of the

twenty kilometer exclusion zone that the government has set up in fact we tried to get a little bit closer but were escorted out by a police officer and. now although this is supposed to be a safe area the radiation levels here are still between seven and ten times higher than normal whether from misinformation or mis understanding that people who live in the affected areas don't always take the proper precautions here a volunteer works to clean up toxic radioactive hot spots with hardly any protection at all a problem that some say is compounded by government propaganda accentuating the benefits while neglecting to inform about the dangers of nuclear waste. the first thing the government should do is let the citizens know the real cost of nuclear energy until now the priority has been to profit from energy the p.r. machine of the government has been emphasising the benefit of nuclear energy and the citizens have been brainwashed to believe it now in the wake of an international crisis and there are allegations that the government and the power

companies have worked out a deal to help each other and that the media. has been bought off the t.v. channels need the money from advertisement and the nuclear energy companies pay a lot with at this money they cannot survive and for that reason i have to shut up about the situation the newspapers have this problem as well a move that if true keeps the important information hidden from the people saving face for those in charge in japan showing thomas. now greenpeace is conducting its own investigation into the health effects of the fukushima disaster in an interview to r.t. one activist accuse the japanese government of failing to create safe enough conditions for people to rebuild their lives we've got that full interview later this hour here on r.t. but first here's a preview. make sure you find it really what a disturbing because on one hand you see the japanese are three piece forcing people and the society to be back to normal kind of so that people will do the work again kids go to the schools farmers start to actually plant your fields because

it's a growing season and yet at the same time there are still extremely high. and the contamination of both in the soil but also potentially in the food this is three months after the accident started but the japanese these japanese are very few sexually bay we can hold information they don't know people the tools and they don't provide them with any kind of support. and other interviews in about twenty minutes time here on r.t. now the u.s. state department's plans for spreading democracy around the world have been greeted with speculation that washington is planning a program of foreign regime change it will provide finance and technology to opposition groups but the attached strings could be used to steer other states where america wants them. reports. the u.s. state department now generously hands out cash and technology to dissidents throughout the world its bureau of democracy human rights and labor has announced

the request for proposals on how to foster change in a number of countries in the middle east and north africa as well this cuba the us claims the best of intentions saying it wants to strengthen independent civil society groups in those countries it's just in really another form of provoking regime change they're just trying to do it under a different guise under a different facade saying that somehow and with the best of intentions they're promoting. democracy but in reality it's just promoting u.s. agenda among other things the state department is financing the creation of stealth wireless networks that would enable activists to communicate outside the reach of governments in countries like iran syria and libya according to participants in the projects other programs include a so-called internet in a suitcase a powerful portable wireless transmitter that activists king used to set up their own networks in order to circumvent state control but at the same time american

companies provide authorities in bahrain saudi arabia and kuwait with the technology to effectively block websites those double standards system everybody should be fully aware of things and understand the. us or united states government austrian regime change that's what essentially a revolution is our technology is not all the us provides to instigate change in certain countries some opposition movements get a direct cash supply for example we can leaks cables show that the state department has for years secretly funded syrian anti-government groups it's done in general to create a world that is more aligned more specifically more control will be aligned with the views of the united states i'm now looking at the state department website that promotes grants for those willing to bring about change in communist cuba and here is one of the requirements i'm going to read this it is preferable

for these personnel to speak spanish fluently possess solid understanding of the cultural context and have prior experience on the island in order to maximize their effectiveness in this unique operating environment and of quote sounds very much like recruiting agents but instead of doing it the traditional secretive way the us does they're right out in the open on their website help most often comes. with strings attached many say opposition leaders in libya who now get financial and political support from washington are sure to get instructions on how to return the favor essentially their eight years and up system with. agents of the u.s. government even if they don't necessarily think it's going to check on r.t.e. washington d.c. . members of syria's opposition human rights movements have arrived right here in moscow for talks with russian officials to discuss ways to stop the bloodshed but

the situation in syria remains tense with an estimated one thousand four hundred people killed in a crackdown on three months of anti-government protests widespread political reform put forward in a bid to calm the opposition includes a possible change of constitution the ruling party could also have its monopoly on power strip and one delegate who was in moscow told r.t. that change in syria can only be imposed from within. i think you came here to think moscow for its efforts to stop the bloodshed and violence that's sweeping syria we would like straights and we will continue to maintain friendly strategic relations with russia the mother who is going to be in power in syria we as well as all the other political forces in syria reaffirm our friendly relations with moscow and call in the russian authorities to denounce violence in syria at the un security council all of position forces both inside and outside the country are against foreign intervention in syria we are united in only one thing only the syrian people have the right to resolve the country's domestic problems we are also

convinced that russia and the world community must plea a vital role in achieving peace and stability now. you with r t live from moscow where it's nearly twenty minutes past the hour change isn't always good and certainly isn't welcomed by the so-called garbage people of egypt still reeling after the former regime was overthrown coming up later in today's program here in our special report on those who say that globalization is stripping them of their only means of survival. i was just thinking about my future before the foreign companies came i dreamed of owning a can cutting factory. some visitors who come here make fun of me. boy.

people think. i'm a good person. it's just the people don't see me. but i feel that people like me. i feel people will start to appreciate us. now twenty minutes past the hour here in moscow one of russia's most high profile criminal cases could be close to a conclusion william browder the head of british hedge fund hermitage capital has reportedly been taken off the international wanted list and the accusations of large scale tax fraud against him will now be examined by russia's interior ministry parties are going to spin off explains what that could mean. william browder is the c.e.o. of the over a large for investment fund the hermitage capital

a group and he was personally suspected of being part of this huge massive tax evasion scheme into the officials cost of the the state billions off rubles we're talking about tens of millions of dollars which the authorities were saying i should have been paid to the state budget but now william broad has name has been taken off the wanted list in russia and in this case has been taken from the group of the investigators who've been working on it seems to thousand and seven to eight higher police authority you know there are several several reasons possibly for that the first one is that this case is it nearing its expiration date so we can be closed in the near future secondly there is speculation that this way the authorities want to provide a more thorough and objective investigation but there's also an unofficial version which actually is linked to the police themselves and that is that this could be

connected to our president meet the needs he gets personal supervision all for the case self i city monies ski and the circumstances off is that he's a lawyer who was hired by william browder and he was actually suspected of being the mastermind behind this alleged gigantic tax evasion scheme but he died in prison while awaiting trial so he wasn't actually have a found guilty of the crimes he was accused of. right then i want to check out some other headlines from around the world for you this hour the thousands have been forced from their homes in the u.s. state of north dakota after banks emergency services and volunteers scramble to build a dirt down the makeshift levees with mixed results however a major fear now is the contamination of drinking water. with people being urged to boil before drinking the water's still not receding and the worst could still get

it to come. greek lawmakers are discussing a deeply unpopular spending cuts and tax hikes today the measures are a prerequisite for a new multi billion euro bailout from the european union in a last ditch effort to avoid default the photos being seen as crucial to the future of the whole euro but the austerity plan has angered the public because of its severity and cost to future generations. and while greek lawmakers debate the controversial cuts face off against a furious public artie's people of oil and it's going to discuss what the implications of a default may be across talk coming your way at fifteen hundred g.m.t. but for now he's a small preview. now if greece does default these to be is all going to be enforceable situation of having to ask but for this money and this means that the greek banking system has an immediate problem as well now that could push greece to a very quick decision about leaving the euro but i think that part of the reason we're trying to buy time now and we're still trying to buy time is to allow greece

to more carefully consider what exactly does it want to do because greece is really easy on their lives and over by trying to suggest to avoid being on the politicians faces that's the key issue here they don't want to admit that the euro has been a mistake so they're doing anything that they can to try and paper over the cracks and try and hope the problem will go away you really think that if you if you are a lot easier when you're larry. or in a time now for the business news with carrie. welcome
