enforce a regime change in syria but instead to help the rival sides seek political dialogue our correspondents are to know who got more of the story. libya was the key issue discussed during a meeting between two foreign ministers that's holding france's deployment of arms to libya france admitted it air drops guns in order to help civilians protect themselves and according to french foreign minister when it comes to protection of civilians school measures are justified they claim that you integrate council's resolution allows them to do so russia believes it isn't it is unacceptable that it quietly arms embargo to libya and russian foreign minister has said even though two ministers two countries have similar views on libya's future that has to be peaceful and democratic states that's a u.n. security council resolution can be easily misinterpreted or solution nine hundred seventy three contains chapter four which allows anyone to do anything because for

a chance it was to cause more problems with the mandate in all other aspects we support it and as we have warned now we're facing a rather unpleasant situations and it can be interpreted in most different ways i think moscow and paris and other u.n. security council members are interested for the body to release concise documents and international law does not need to put up with ambiguity meanwhile representatives of the african union have already spoken out about this saying that they are afraid of proliferation they fear that those guns make end up in the hands of terrorists and that's going to be a threat to the insider region russia's envoy to nato has said at a press conference in moscow that he fears that an on grounds operation is just around the corner and that operation is only going to prolong this conflict and worsened situation in the whole region in general meanwhile when it comes to syria the two foreign ministers are not quite on the scene between guarding the uprising

moscow's danced against a u.n. security council resolution towards syria while france is going up with the council to take action to still believe that only the political solution. at this price this is possible. only still not. getting him to sit down for something it's morning edition. it's. all with the war in libya our birth focal point of international relations assays gain access to colonel gadhafi son in a say town to tripoli seinfeld is planned things his country's wanted for its riches but says the people or he fighting to make sure libya doesn't fall under foreign control. the day i was swimming and mission i was very hard at what we're really so we are in our country i want to die fighting for our country living with our people who feel we need our country or we would if we die we go to

heaven and they destroyed our house in the middle of. a. small house so. many houses people are living near this small school next to them and their house. because my brother and young civilian had nothing to do with the war with politics he was studying in germany because of the war he came back to libya he was there simply because. they considered it. a command and control center because it was a two bedroom kitchen living room small house is if your example for my family and many other examples one week ago they had a house of a friend of my father in the whole family. the wife pregnant.

two young girls of the back and i gave we are hitting a military site. right with her. the controlling and commanding libyan troops come up. with. had one target this country is a piece of cake rich full of jazz oil and we have more than one hundred billion dollars deposits abroad so we have to share this cake that it need to. call and harry we want to finish the soonest possible because the hungry and tired they want to share the cake. the steak for them leave is they fast food like mcdonald's fast because evolution fast fast fall fast airplanes fast

fast literally but very patient because we are now a country so until we die here so we're very patient their goal is to get out and the goal is to comply libya is going to look at this is the target. and believe me as will not allow them to do that. so the fight will continue. well you can watch our full exclusive interview with colonel gadhafi over a three hour time if you want to greats of the log on to our home to download it right now. germany is the latest a team member to replenish the dwindling arsenal of alliance that weapons in the league campaign well despite its refusal to participate in direct military action but i have an elephant's ready to quote make as a level of precision weaponry components off and on this is cause life too busy to

start hostile who's in germany for us maybe there's a speaking to the whole don't know why do you think germany has agreed to this despite opposing the mission in libya from the stars. let's germany has come a long way our foreign minister mr. previous to the security council resolution authorizing the attacks on libya. to withdrawal of all nuclear made toward heads from german soil and it has obviously angered the americans and then germany came up. did not support the war in libya and how to see. it in a way to put him out of his job is a party headed. liberal party here in germany this happened seven

days after germany voted with russia and china. china in the last days has voted to keep contacts with the opposition and germany to make good on the floor this is see in political germany. you know replenish the empty arsenals of some of the nato allies which is usually a normal thing to do but in this case it has a certain smear on it and very definitely germany is under a lot of pressure the media accused mr best and the government not to be able to conduct a coherent strategy where of course it is very clear that we do not take part in warfare with soldiers but replenish arsenals of allies the normal thing to do but what we see here is that the media in germany under part fears u.s. influence is also accusing germany of being in bad company by voting together with

russia which is not reflecting the good position of power in the electoral connections and context we're looking forward mr hostility thing that germany is likely now to get involved in the conflicts. it is possible in case the other allies expressed the need for it but this is not very likely to happen right now and of course there's the cost question because eight countries are now bearing the financial brunt of the action and therefore it is also not to be excluded germany who will by itself after being asked to do so pay something to the allies what we have here in the background of the german decision to do all this is very clear that at first hand our you know ministries so the foreign affairs minister don't go into libya it's

a very bad conflict it was started by the cia and it's a dirty business don't go there so this is why he voted with russia and china and now the backlash from washington is so tough obviously we are under pressure to do something to make up for this decision well ed germany has been ill for a plantation a ties are the deal that means that the coalition is running away. ghoulish and definitely is running low but it is a there are enough global arsenals to refill this so there is no urgent no need for any hasty action but in any case germany was asked it has complied in some ways and others not and by the way the guiding part is i have a rig for the g twenty for guided bomb units and these are your indian weapons and their heads a very difficult for german politics now with only eight nato members taking active

part in air strikes in libya how long do you think they'll be able to sustain the campaign financially. since our little except germany for example and some other restraints are behind this it is clear that those eight who are doing it may be requesting some support from the others so there will be a long breath but in fact what we see here is that deliberately the country is being destroyed which is by far by far transgressing of the decision by the security council and that's a very good story right now. this guy has to start our whole story many times the speaking to us from. thousands of militants reportedly crossed into russia's north caucasus from across the border this comes as russian officials warn of an ongoing terrorists in the country can see all of the sounds. we've been

hearing reports quoting sources inside the russian security services that say between fifty and seventy arms militants have crossed from georgia into the russian republic of dagestan though it's believed that one of that group had been counted and interrogated by security personnel revealing that the group of militants had been trained in the punch easy cool j. area bulls georget by arabs the playing cheesy college area has become something of a hub for terrorist training since it the georgian army still patrolling that particular part of the border crossing now it's the ideal site militants wanting to get into dagestan from georgia very poorest border due to the mountainous terrain that exists there very easy for the a group of these type to slip on notice through the mountains and instead just down the caucuses are essentially rushes frontline in their war on terror operations are ongoing there and the security forces of so

far this year killed two hundred plus militants in arms bottles enough area it's not just dagestan this goes across the whole of that area looking at english it via chechnya and dagestan at the end of may this year we saw a major hold for the security forces there they they captured a massive amount of columns of munitions as well as what they say were seven very large farms around one hundred kilograms of t.n.t. each of these means to to stick those coming from the authorities is the terror attacks across russia thirty five percent and the first half of this year. those include of course the the devastating suicide bombing on the airport right here in moscow which killed almost forty people. agree prime minister has the european union seen really so far the way the bailout funds were written a country needs to avoid defaulting into line to qualify for the care. athens has

approved a package of radical tax increases and spending cuts which triggered three days of massive process of asking sarah ferguson plans to sell off to the highest bidder also a fanning the flames of public anger. greece is not for sale the message from a furious public has plans to sell of many greek assets pushes ahead quick so incredibly proud of their heritage many people feel that the privatization proposals the stripping grace of the public at that potentially up for grabs for lenders banks water companies in train operators among many more it's taken a large telecommunications company a.t.t. it's also for sale with we're going to. go to you there's been a continuous crime for the past twenty years groups all of our company piece by piece and now we only own a small percentage but that small stake is extremely important to the group of

people who want to sell even that it is a huge turn for the present governments who were heavily opposed to the sale of eighty shares when they were acting as a position. called a national crime when the previous government sold shares you know they want to do the same and sell the shares now at a low price we don't think we'll see investment or any development of otoh you we think the only thing others will care about is profit profit profit. he continues calls from the public to refuse the aggressive privatization proposals set forth by the troika has seemingly gone and hurt their brother from the european union is there a man those who would talk about blackmail i guess the greek government critics have argued that those getting a bailout acting out of self-interest keeping profits private but the losses is socialized the thing you hear is not like. greeks have to stretch back into deep

history to figure this out we can look at latin american we can look at countries all over the world where the i.m.f.'s come in and sharper fires and plunder the nation for corporate consolidation and prime minister how can journey speak of avoiding the country's current cost and many are now asking just how high a price he's willing to pay someone buys something very tragic occurs that's going to be a catalyst for i think for this government the e.u. his stated family there's no plan b. is staring he measures being enacted. buses shiri bills on the streets it might be time they thought of one. and. we have more stories to you on line just log on to our web site. access to fresh our plates videos and much. pasties correspondent is reporting firsthand from one of the boats of in this freedom for tiller which is set to sail

a grand ceremony president lesions how the party members that corruption could cost the support of the chinese people. what we do you value your opinion here on these you log on twelve dot com and take part in our latest poll and today we're asking why did communist china succeed where russia failed also called the most popular response that russia was too hasty to embrace a capitalism while in second place though the time between basis said that china is a dictatorship of a few because china didn't wage costly rules also on the satellite regimes and finally the least popular option is because it has a lot more hard working people and that. allows the u.s. and its allies prepared so you pull thousands of troops out of afghanistan and washington's turns its sights to the home front the americans do count ten to. he

calls for a refocus of his the says to combat the nest of terror threats before more i'm now joined live from the u.s. capital by lawrence a well said he was chief of staff to form a section of state colin powell many kinds of being with us here on do you think that this change in security strategy is warranted is the threat of domestic terror we need growing in the us. i don't think so i do think that the situation and i plan to stand up for that matter in iraq based on strategic city we caused a disaster in the persian gulf by destroying the balance of power between iran and iraq and we are now that balance of power so we're not leaving iraq any time soon we may say we are but we're not in afghanistan we destabilize pakistan we stay too long we lingered too long we have drone strike into the plot into pakistan proper so we're destabilizing pakistan and it is probably never been so fragile and such

powderkeg as it is today and where the principal cause so we're not leaving afghanistan either despite what the president might say to the contrary. then you counter terrorism this strategy does also mean fewer american boots actually on the ground in conflict zones with more drone strikes and special forces raids do you think that this is the wind shifted military strategy. it was a shift secretary gates put in motion and a lot of people intellectual weight and otherwise agree with i'm a little bit concerned about it because we can't afford to do both that is we can't afford to do preparation for war what might be a larger war a more conventional war the usual target there of course is china over taiwan and do this rather sophisticated counterterrorism war which consists of coins drone strikes and so forth as you pointed out we can't afford both were in physical straits right now that indicate we might and might not even be able to afford one

strategy so it concerns me that we are sort of forfeiting the ability to fight the big one for the ability to fight a lot of little ones that something had to live here now the u.s. is ready deployed on drains that i do you think it means i need both of these in the washington. jesting people parents need special forces for surgical strikes even they thought would violate the un mandates. as a military officer i i can't doubt that at all because i don't see that where swinging the balance there i don't see that we're winning in other words i don't see that we're forcing it off and really and as senator jim webb asked in a hearing not too long ago three or four days ago when are we going to introduce ground troops because that seems to be the only way we're going to change this precarious balance that we've set up between the revolutionary forces of the war and i could offer your regime on the other side. and it's heading out to another

country the u.s. has extended its drone strikes. down fly all non combat operations in six countries into how warren says. all these drone science. well these drone strikes are an incredible development i often look at people who are so ardently in favor of them and say i would like to have them over manhattan. to have them over houston or los angeles because that's what's going to come in the future of the chinese are already working hard on developing their own armed drones i'm sure other countries will do so in the future so if the if this becomes a principle development in warfare we're going to get it thrust on us at some time in the in the future perhaps not the distant future on the other other side of the coin if you will i'm really worried that the law of war has not kept up with this and our own constitution and our own interpretation of that constitution and the

war powers has not kept up with this look what you have now you have the president preposterously or the president's lawyers arguing that these are not hostilities in libya per the war powers act that's nonsense certainly there are still these so this kind of thing drones and drone like apparatus is of warfare lead to these kinds of parsing the number of angels on the head of opinion and that's not very healthy in my view i'm thinking back in the u.s. that war on terror as a whole house was. successful in achieving its goal since nine eleven. we've been to a certain degree successful i think we have brought out. to the wreck of ruin i think bin laden's death was. anticlimactic i think we'd already reduced al qaeda to probably two hundred operatives if that meaning we got them down to a menu of all level you're never going to eliminate terrorism and in that regard

i'm very concerned with what's crawling out from under that powder keg i just mentioned in pakistan we've got lashkar e tayyiba that. we've got other groups around that scenario there are crawling out from under that powder keg only to you for example looks like it could be just as bloody as talking and were it to gain global capability and be more or less allowed to go global i'd be more concerned about it than i would al-qaeda so are we winning perhaps we are reducing it to a manageable level but we've sacrificed an enormous amount of our liberties we've sacrificed laws we've committed war crimes we've done all manner of things in this iraq plus we spent about three point seven trillion dollars lawrence wilkerson from the u.s. capitol many thought with you'll forward said the former chief of staff to the former secretary of state colin powell and many feel thoughts. say with.

a welcome rest by in the short term the increase in russian supply but you only need to look across the border in ukraine and see that their figures are down roughly forty three percent on the year to know that there will be slapped up pretty quickly so short term i think you'll see that the prices cool a little bit longer i think you'll probably see prices spike higher is a man dictates. quick check on the markets your stocks are open strongly on friday after a national gauge of manufacturing in june exceeded expectations and european stocks are higher law its stopping its interests for the second day almost four percent after soaring one point seven percent on thursday as the market was up to further cost cutting measures and a new strategy for the lender out of friday the russian market back in their early losses the r.t. has gained one point six percent my six try to break the seven hundred mark just before the end of the session but weekly slid down over the summer energy majors
