because i'm closer to the millstones who took some of the country house full of the blue goldman tones the regrets the club that used to be the once accused which is the rule of law the rubens barrichello. the british to london to paris from america with calls to close a u.s. spy base that's being lined up as a part of a star wars time's missile shield. europe's open border is here today and is damn are brings back the barriers angering e.u. colleagues to say violates a cornerstone of your unity also. some good stuff we'll put you on the all corridor . officials and media saying the arms embargo has been breached again as both from qatar carried weapons for the rebels are reportedly intercepted. and as you pan reveals almost half the children living near the fukushima plant have been

exposed to radiation well look at how the crisis is leading to a new nuclear solution in neighboring china. and another obstacle has emerged on the way over russia but north stream pipeline project the details in business in about twenty minutes. one pm in the russian capital you're watching r t. first and it has day march with a difference this time 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 as more and it reports activists demanding the base be taken off british soil accuse the u.s. of following cold war criteria. it's no fourth of july celebration at base top secret. u.s.

military base here it's a little piece of america in the heart of the u.k.'s yorkshire dales where it's who are demanding independence from america this space symbolizes what's wrong with the special relationship between britain and united states here we have a base that's on u.s. control which the british government and british people have. menwith hill is the largest intel gathering and surveillance space 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 launch of police stick missiles as in poland and the czech republic where the u.s. also plan to site bases worried 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 at all 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 case 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 where you can envisage in the early warning missile detection system that was dubbed the star wars program it secretive based for 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 is around the country they want to reclaim this land and bring it back under the control of the british government and its people it's not working. as menwith hill becomes part of the missile defense

shield it's building another cold satellite structure bringing the total to thirty three despite some local and international opposition growing not reducing the u.s. influence in europe your at it's ot menwith hill yorkshire russia's wanted a joint european missile shield solution for some time but it's still falling on deaf ears with a nato as was proved at a summit in sochi the alliance also won't guarantee its own project will not target russia later we hear from a leading american scientists says obama's team are rolling along with bush era policies. bush plan was first discarded president obama when he came into power there is no longer whole new thing would be more agreeable to the russians right now but we have actual numbers instead of being less of a concern going from the bush administration to the obama administration. this is raised all sorts of red flags in russia.

the free flow across europe borders has hit the buffers with danmark pledging to restore checkpoints and crossings from germany and sweden e.u. colleagues are furious saying it violates europe's much heralded open border agreement i think the real issue reports and how it signals warring times ahead for the walk. 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 by the e.u. officials in brussels and especially by denmark's neighbor germany they insist that this is a violation of the showing in agreements 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 right brings 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 who do flood countries like denmark belgium or italy and france actually do come mostly from the north in africa 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. your english the reporting there now still ahead for you this hour the agony is not over for dominic charles guy 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 for the private state support for the air condition now one parents taking the fight to the heart of the medical establishment. libyan officials say they have intercepted two boats from qatar carrying a cache of weapons for rebel forces in the country it said the load included about a hundred belgian made assault rifles along with thousands of rounds of ammunition so far only the french admit to supplying weapons to alleviate and say government forces brian johnson thomas a former arms trafficking expert for the u.n. security council says it's

a dangerous violation of the arms embargo. but it seems to me very strange we're going to balance it you know i thought the arms embargo was laid down by the security council was quote to be both stars were involved we know that for example some of the with its own some somalia went to libya for training with a little two or three years plus documents we have the 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 all going on. for months on nato is protected intervention in libya has yet to yield as desired result even as the alliance battles accusations of violating its un mandate got political blogger recross of believes a peace mission was never high on the coalition's priority list. thirteen thousand nato air missions over a country of six and a half million people including what nato itself acknowledges and scribed thousand

combat missions it's not a war. you know it is this is not simply a question of the architecting libyan civilians from recorded over and violence and so forth and this is a concerted long term military action nato is the world's only military force and it's one that is in charge of the two major wars in the world right now and those in afghanistan and libya i think you know we can dispute there are you know minor points of contention but i think we should not be confused about what the for the nature of the north but i think through the organization. a middle east expert mikhail thinks the west's rush to support the oppositional media without really assessing who they are. to believe this is national friggin transition from feel as if you can see and you know needs to move and you will be people from people raised in you know i don't think through. most of the crew members of congress who he's on . powerful conversation with bonnie who is on our website right now at her t.

stressed crimes here that would be sarkozy is response and the french press has taken this seriously i think he got in trouble because he began questioning the i am mouse use of its power to force the cost of the bailout of the banks on the backs of just ordinary people and 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 i but it can't have made him a target for. the establishment. meanwhile the new head of the international monetary fund is officially beginning the job former french finance minister christine lagarde one overwhelming backing of the i.m.f. last week having beaten mexico central bank governor there was a full entry for the first woman to take the funds top job with the financial

radiation has been detected in a thyroids of almost half of all children living near japan's fukushima facility authorities are continuing to study the health effects of of the nuclear crisis which send safety shutters around the world some like germany have already pledged to close all of its plants but there are countries convinced there is a safer alternative 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 and much safer the chinese are investing millions in research into reactors powered by the element for in 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 it's release from thore and is greater than from uranium or by products from using thore and a less toxic than from uranium and it's much harder to make weapons from those by products for years. 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 and 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 and jittery public that nuclear energy is a safe alternative so they are investing millions of dollars into thorin research like this in order to try and lay those fears to rest in so doing they may be showing the rest of the world a new path to clean energy and we want an ati beijing. r.t. dot com is there where whenever you once for more on the stories we're covering here let's take you through what's lined up for you there. a holy round over

mother is hoping to change that and we find some of the images in very close call this report upset. she likes dancing and no one would guess the amount of pain lisa goes through to make these simple movements lisa has a rare genetic condition a bitter mozes blows or or even that makes her skin less than as a lot of why when a slight touch or a hug can cause painful blistering that takes a long time think he'll leaving the skin even more fragile. around the world sufferers like liza are known as butterfly children however in russia it's as if they don't exist right you could group of doctors simply don't nobody sees and when you tell them what it is they might have heard of it but they don't know how to deal with it she knew these is 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 well it is new

it's such a rare disease that it's pretty much been forgotten about there's no states a court to there's no money and no specialists. del monaco is a dermatologist and admits she's become a specialist by default no one else is dealing with a.b. patients but the mothers say her advice can conflict with what they've learned from abroad. so the well is a very complex disease and so few patients suffering from it any doctor that would take it up would have to become a very narrow specialist i myself i'm tied up in many other places so i don't have much time for these patients. two year old nasty is it 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 when she was twenty five days old i took her away providing the best maternity wards in the country her stomach can feed her all and the marks

of the doctor's fingers are still her skin but then she did look like a libby patient ever since nice to has lived a life of protection her medication cost roughly one hundred thousand rubles more than three thousand dollars per month she has three people constantly looking after her including her mother who is says life expectancy for such kids in russia is very low and she would do anything to make her daughter's life long unhappy and she's my beautiful alongst acted princess and if there is a pill you this can hurt my princess i'll take them 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 as for elisa she bravely takes on life with a smile despite her deteriorating state as a sign of trust she told me her biggest dream then maybe you children with this
