the british who want independence from america with calls to closing u.s. spy base that's being lined up as part of a star wars type missile shield. europe's open borders hit a dead end as denmark drops the barriers again angering its colleagues who say violates the cornerstone of you or unity also. in some cases. officials in libya say the arms embargo has been breached again i suppose from qatar carrying weapons for the rebels are reportedly intercepted. and japan fires up its nuclear reactors for the first time since difficult disaster we'll look at how neighboring china is searching for safer atomic supplies.

it is not am in the russian capital you're watching r t with me marina joshing first independence day march with a difference the stunning it's the british trying to drive the americans out of a major military facility it's due to become part of a missile defense shield similar to the eighty's star wars project but activists say it's militarization of space and that washington is wrong to keep the british in the dark about what goes on there or at reports. it's no ordinary fourth of july celebration at this top secret u.s. military base here it's a little piece of america in the heart of the u.k. so yorkshire dales where it's demanding independence from america. symbolizes what's wrong with the special relationship between britain and the united states here we have a base that's on u.s. control which the british and british people have no control menwith hill is the

largest intel gathering and surveillance base outside the us there are thirty two satellite dishes housed inside the huge golf ball structures which can eavesdrop on telephone calls faxes and e-mails from around the world it's been operational since the one nine hundred sixty s. but now it's set to become part of the controversial missile defense shield to alert the u.s. to any. jazz in poland and the czech republic where the u.s. also plans to site bases worry that having the facility here will put the area in danger heightening the risk of an attack by anyone who wants to disable the shield but unlike in eastern europe the government here has put up no fight a tall in fact it doesn't even know what goes on here there isn't a single british official in parliament or in the intelligence services who could give you a full picture of what is happening in this space it's the culmination of former

u.s. president ronald reagan's dream as his statue is unveiled in london on monday menwith hill in bodies can envisage dimly early warning missile detection system that was dubbed the star wars program it secretive based far away from u.s. soil and some say it's a step towards the u.s. domination and militarization of space people demonstrate here campaigning for the closure of this space and the others like his around the country they want to. in this land and bring it back under the control of the british government and its people it's not working though as men with help becomes part of the missile defense shield it's building another golf ball satellite structure bringing the total to thirty three despite some local and national opposition growing not reducing the u.s. is influence in europe. menwith hill yorkshire denmark is to bring the barriers back down its borders with germany and sweden the moves not going down well with e.u. colleagues say it violates europe's much heralded open border agreement arches or

english to reports on how it signals warring times for the block. but danish officials insist that this is to prevent drug flow and illegal migrants from entering the country but the move has been regarded as a bad sign not just by the left wing politicians and the opposition in denmark itself but also has been severely opposed to why the e.u. officials in brussels and especially by denmark's neighbor germany they insist that this is a violation of the good agreement of the open borders in europe and they also say that this is not a wise move at all to make during a particularly volatile time for the european union when countries are bickering over border disputes and over cash and money issues some believe that this actually may signal the end off united europe but the danish officials insist that this will last cause any damage to the free flow of traffic tourists and transportation

across the border we have to remember that this is not the very first border dispute of course the problem of really go into this particularly bitter one right now for the european union earlier this year france and italy have entered a rather bitter dispute over the flow of illegal migrants across their borders and we also have to take to keep in mind the fact that the extremely volatile situation in northern africa is not going to help the situation in any way since most of the migrants who do come to europe could do flood countries like denmark belgium or italy and france actually do call mostly from the north and african region so this particular move by the danish officials may actually send quite a worrisome signal to other european countries who may also follow suit still i am very of this hour here in the ad it is not over for dominic strauss kahn the former i.m.f. chief is about to face fresh sexual assault charges we hear how there is likely to

be a very different kind of foul play behind the claims. plus the russian children with a rare. skin disease who are deprived of state support for their condition now one parents taking the fight to the heart of the medical establishment. we've been officials say they have intercepted two boats from qatar carrying a cache of weapons for rebel forces in the country it's sad to load included about one hundred belgian made assault rifles along with thousands of rounds of ammunition so far only the french admit to supplying weapons to levy an anti-government forces brian johnson thomas a former arms trafficking expert for the un security council says it's a dangerous violation of the arms embargo. now it seems to me very strange we're going about it and i thought the arms embargo was laid down by the security council was quote trying to do is to both sides were involved we know that for example some of the rich and some somalia when she libya for training within the last two or

three years just documented we have the flight records and everything else so it seems strange in many ways the whole western support of some of the rebel groups in libya must be questioned because in some cases of it we are effectively arming all kind. for months on nato as for tract of the intervention in libya has yet to yield is desired result even as the alliance battles accusations of violating its un mandate but political blogger rick ross of believes a peace mission was never high on the coalition's priority list. thirteen thousand made away or missions over a country of six and a half million people including what nato itself acknowledges as five thousand combat missions if it's not a war. you know the this is not simply a question of protecting libyan civilians from an over the government violence and so forth this is a concerted long term military action nato it's the world's only military board

it's one that is in charge of the two major wars in the world right now those are now if you understand in libya i think you know we can dispute you know minor points of contention but i think we should not be confused about what the nature of the merkel and through the organization. middle east expert bomb maker things the west to rush to support the opposition in libya without really assessing who they are. going to leave to the international affairs in transition plans to do as good an opportunity to mislead and you know needs to be moved and you political configuration. i don't think so and i don't think that they can embrace that haunt us through this point in. our full conversation with bombing hale is on our website right now at r.t. dot com. an official pro has found the death of a russian lawyer in police custody in two thousand and nine was caused by insufficient medical help sergei magnitsky supporters say he is the maltreatment

was because he blew the whistle on police corruption investigators say the prison staff involved will face trial parties correspondent peter oliver is following the case. the additional forensic medical examination into the death of surrogate magnitsky is now being completed a spokesperson for the the investigative committee said the. medical examination revealed that magnitsky had a preexisting heart condition which had contributed to his death now he also went on to say criminal a criminal case has been opened and charges of failure to provide adequate medical care and negligence are to be brought against stuff at the detention facility. awaiting trial where he's being held at awaiting trial on charges of tax evasion now in this case the death of in custody while he was awaiting the trial drew huge interest all around the world with many many human rights groups calling for

a full investigation to determine exactly what happened that led to his death. a french rider is to file charges of attempted rape against former international monetary fund dominic kahn she claims she was attacked in two thousand and two but his lawyers say they will sue for slander it's a marriage khan's new york sex assault case teeters on collapse as prosecutors question his accuser's credibility a former white house executive believes the x. official could be a victim of political foul play. the french press has reported that strauss kahn said before he ever came to the united states that he expected sarkozy to pay some french woman a million euros to brain sex charges against him and he said that was because he was leading the sarkozy in the polls for the french presidency and that he.

stressed crime said that would be sarkozy's response and the french press has taken this seriously i think he got in trouble because he began questioning the i am house use of its power to force the cost of the bailout of the banks onto the backs of just ordinary people he started questioning that he was meeting in the united states with the economist joseph stiglitz who was a big critic of that way of bailing out the banks and i think he was sending signals that upset the financial community so it may have helped him with ordinary people but it kind of made him a target for. the establishment. aarti dot com is there whenever you want for more on the stories we're covering here let's take you through what's lined up for you there. holy over a helicopter worshipper

japan is putting some of its nuclear reactors back on line for the first time since the focus shima facility was all but destroyed the accidents and safety shutters around the world germany is already decided to close all of its plants but there are countries convinced there's a safer alternative as henry morton reports from beijing. with the global spotlight firmly back on the safety of nuclear power following japan's tsunami and the problems at the fukushima daiichi plant china is looking at spearheading efforts to make the industry safer much safer the chinese are investing millions in research

into reactors powered by the element for him a metal proponents say as common as lead and one which despite some concerns would lead to power plants with fewer safety issues as well as other benefits. thore and based reactors certainly have advantages release from the story and is greater than from uranium the by products from using thore and less toxic than from uranium and it's much harder to make weapons from those by products and that public outcry following the problems at the fukushima plant led to beijing putting a freeze on approvals of all new nuclear power stations and safety checks at the twenty seven currently under construction however with chinese electricity consumption growing at more than five percent a year and its current reliance on fossil fuels to generate that unsustainable it's unlikely the crisis in japan will dampen china's thirst for nuclear power.

it's impossible for china to give up nuclear energy and china needs to make changes to its energy structure which is closely linked to the need to reduce pollution carbon emissions and the overall direction of chinese development other new energies have no advantage in either techniques or resources. no one in china is under any illusions that the country desperately needs to find alternative clean ways to generate electricity the current reliance on coal which provides some eighty percent of chinese energy needs cost the economy more than two hundred billion dollars a year through air pollution alone and while beijing is investing heavily in turn it into energy supplies nuclear power is seen as the best bet by the chinese government the problem facing authorities is trying to convince a sometimes. jittery public that nuclear energy is a safe alternative so they are investing millions of dollars into foreign research like this in order to try and lay those fears to rest in so doing and maybe showing

the rest of the world a new path to clean energy and we want an ati beijing. moscow's hopes for a joint missile shield in europe have been dashed at a russian nato summit in the city of sochi the alliance said it had no plans for such a system and wouldn't guarantee its own missile shield won't target russia later we'll hear from a leading american scientists assess obama's administration is continuing bush era policies here's some of what's to come. bush plan was for. president obama when he came into power there was a lot of hope that the new would be more agreeable to the russians but not of the actual numbers instead of being less of a concern going from the bush administration to the obama assertion. this has raised all sorts of red flags in russia. a brief look at

a couple of international headlines now venezuelan president hugo chavez has made a surprise return home during his treatments for cancer in cuba becoming science with many as two hundred independence day anniversary he addresses cheering supporters in the capital but says he won't be able to join the celebrations it was thought chavis would be home for months and doubts remain as to whether he's made a full enough recovery. tunisia has sentenced its fugitive former president to fifteen years in prison for trafficking drugs weapons and archaeological artifacts a fortnight ago the actually leader was convicted of the best moment and sentenced to thirty five years behind bars ben ali fled to saudi arabia back in january after a month long uprising requests for his extradition back to tunisia have not been answered. u.s. lawmakers are to resume talks on the need to raise the country's debt ceiling

like lisa are known as butterfly children however in russia it's as if they don't exist right you bring the doctors simply don't know of the disease and when you tell them what it is they might have heard of it but they don't know how to deal with it kenya lizzie's only five but she already knows her diagnosis better than any doctor her mother knows there is no cure with proper medication her daughter could lead an almost normal life but it's way too expensive while using it it says here it is see that it's pretty much being forgotten about there is no state support so there is no money and no specialists. there are one of those a dermatologist and admits she's become a specialist by default no one else is dealing with patients but the mothers say her advice can conflict with what they've learned from abroad. so well it's a very complex disease and with so few patients suffering from it any doctor that

would take it up would have to become a very narrow specialist i myself am tied up in many other voices so i don't have much time for these patients. two year old nasty is a clear example of what good care and access to proper treatment can do for a butterfly child her mother says she's probably the only girl in russia who from the very first days of her life was taken care of properly according to international standards that's new year's when she was twenty five days old i took her away from one of the best maternity wards in the country her stomach and feet were on the marks of the doctor's fingers are still on her skin back then she did look like an a.b. patient regular since ny still has lived a life of protection her medication costs roughly one hundred thousand rubles more than three thousand dollars per month. she has three people constantly looking after her including her mother julie says life expectancy for such kids in russia

is very low and she would do anything to make her daughter's life long unhappy on the third of she's my beautiful and line expected princes and if there is a pier that can hurt my princess i'll take them all away no matter what the cost julie is also behind a newly created foundation to help other children now people from all over the country are calling her and it seems the number of suffering children is far greater than the previously estimated one hundred s. for lisa she bravely takes on life with a smile despite her deteriorating state as a sign of trust she told me her biggest dream there may be few children with this disease in russia but each of them needs all the support they can get they may have learned to live with their condition but just like lisa real dream of one day waking up to a life without paying. r.t. moscow and right now it's time for the business news or the earliest day with us.
