and boycott bill which aims to support settlers but has been dubbed an affront to democracy. police have made the first arrest in connection with russia's worst ever boating disaster they've detained the owner of the company that rented out to bulgaria cruiser and the person who certified it sit for sale meanwhile divers are set to conduct a final search of the vessel looking for the remaining twenty four bodies of the one hundred thirty people believed killed and the tragedy is of the site for us. the first two arrests have been made in the ongoing criminal investigations the first. she's been arrested because she was the owner of the company that rented the bold gari or pleasure boat for its final cruise and it's thought that she may have known about the poor condition of the ship when she made that decision to rent it the second is yaakov if a show of here's a state shipping expert and he cleared the ship as fit to sail some time ago and is

thought that he may have been negligent in making that decision they will stay in detention for around a month to be questioned and then the case will go on from there emergencies ministry here on the volga bank and the divers that are going out to the platform above the sunken belgariad they say their final effort is going to be made now to try and recover the last twenty four bodies. from from the ship and however there may be some complications with that they're hoping to finish sometime later today possibly around midday but they think that they've searched most of the ship now and they haven't found all of these twenty four bodies so if they're not on the ship they may be in the water around the ship a worst case scenario maybe this some of them when the ship sank people may have unfortunately drowned in their bodies being carried by the current to worst

estimate up to two hundred kilometers downstream so the search area may have to be increased for them but they're hoping to finish this search so that two special ships that have come up from foreground further down the river can start the operation later on to try and raise the bulgar area from the bottom of the volga and when they can see the ship up in the open air they can try and work out why the ship sank and why it sank so fast leading to so much try. reporting there got more on russia's worst boating accident on our website log on to r.t. dot com when we watch exclusive footage by divers searching the ship on the bottom of the volga river and an interview with a former captain of the doomed ship who says it was in no condition to sail long before the sinking. to other stories now here in r.t.e. russia asked proposed and new step by step strategy towards iran's nuclear program

the idea suggest making a limited concessions to the iran if it goes along with the demands of the international community the statement comes after talks between the u.s. secretary of state hillary clinton and russia's foreign minister sergei lavrov during his visit to washington the two also touched upon believe in campaign with lavrov saying russia has less disagreement on the matter with the u.s. than with some european countries but as are reports bilaterally still face certain difficulties. with regards to leave both russia and the u.s. have the view that colonel gadhafi must step down and that the levy should be able to choose their future leader it's the path towards those aims that moscow and washington disagree on the means if you will russia criticizes the scope of the into the foreign intervention in libya also sees the actions of the allied forces the forces there as a violation of the un mandate minister lavrov said the resolution is being wrongly interpreted as anyone can do whatever they want for

a minister was also asked about why russia is blocking a u. and they should have to condemn the syrian president assad he said the attitude of the west is exclusively about exerting pressure on one of the parties namely the syrian government and president all side of moscow sees it as sees it as the wrong attitude russia says it sends the wrong message to the syrian opposition prompting them to believe that if they were the main insistent in the situation keeps getting critical of the west will come to help them the way it is happening in. mr lavrov said it's unacceptable that the opposition resort to violence agitating peaceful protesters into engaging in armed clashes and if actively turning them into a carcass for the police and security forces take a listen i'm going to deploy. diplomacy exists not to condemn and school political points diplomacy exists to solve problems and make it condemnation without proposing any solution to any breakthrough neither in syria nor in any other place

is a good example of how we are dealing with the situation in yemen no one's tripos into condemning anyone or adult or un security council resolution supporting one or another signed everyone is. down and hold negotiations dance a responsible approach that we hope will prevail well on bilateral issues there have been some agreements and disagreements as usual but top diplomats bravely focused on agreements both pointed out the positive and constructive mode in which the cooperation between the two countries is going on many issues in the last few years back in the us of which the landmark deal on arms reduction they deepen cooperation out of ghana's then have gone forward in preparations for russia's accession into the world trade organization the obama administration is all for it and hillary clinton has once again stressed the american leadership support for russia joining the w t o also they have signed the long awaited agreement on adoption after scores of horrible incidents involving russian children mistreated

by their adoptive parents in a number of cases murdered by them to stress the need for an agreement and a better oversight over how the adopted children are treated in their families and the deal finally came through the points in vision there included ban on independent adoption adoptions will only be conducted beer licensed agencies also the agreement states that all foster children from marshall will retain their russian citizenship until they reach legal adulthood that it's very important as the agreement states that. applicable laws from both countries will be used to add adoption related trials up until recently the americans did not want to hear anything about taking russian laws into account now as for disagreements america's missile defense plans is one of the most irritating issues in the relations between the two countries you could sense that both foreign minister lavrov and secretary of state clinton preferred not to go into details and talk much about disagreements but nevertheless we know that there has been discussions behind closed doors

president obama has scrapped the bush administration missile defense plans but they're going ahead with a new plan for miss the lab rob said russians need for him legally binding guarantees that the project will not threaten russia's security washington has made reassuring statements before but moscow needs to have it on paper so there is an understanding among the russians that words are good but words in a legally binding document are better but again no specific comments on that yet she can report in there and we are here live for you twenty four seven but for even more news videos just go to our website r t v dot com here's a taste of what's online right now. find out why a monument to the first man in space you are a good gardener will be unveiled right at the very heart of london. and it's a happy ending for an escaped boa constrictor which brought fear when it was lost in russia city of kaliningrad. learned how the two meter along snake slipped away

this is our team the currency crisis gripping the e.u. has taken a turn for the worse as spurred by a string of ruinous market downturns begin to debate emergency spending cuts at two trillion dollars the world's eighth largest economy has been struggling to remain competitive since joining the eurozone but it's dad has spiraled out of control that overlooked by manny amid the more pressing problems in the e.u. it follows a down. rate of ireland's debt to junk status a serious blow to the eurozone as the bailout ridden block labors to prop up its weakest economies you carry a peep all of the tell told r.t. the latest developments prove the single currency union is simply not working. this was always about politics it was not about economics the idea that you could have a column in the mediterranean in line with economies like germany fast growing economies like germany was never going to work the only way to get into this mess

is for those countries to go back home to their national potencies to devalue growth moving. into exports going in at the moment they come with that because they couldn't see these are controlled by frankfurt they're controlled by the european central bank they're not controlled by athens or lisbon or even the people out on the streets in athens and i just wonder how long it will be before the people are also in the streets in rome and in lisbon until this thing is contagious this thing will move right across the continent specifically in the mediterranean and the bigger issue you know facing the older people you know is this really really is the third largest economy in the eurozone largest economy in the world i think the eurozone can actually cope with greece and portugal the smaller economies if italy goes the whole thing could cave in because if italy goes it's all these economies intertwined with spain's going to spain and italy go then we are in serious trouble the euro is inextricably to the whole project and it's going to the european union

if the eurozone goes quite frankly you can see this whole thing breaking go but that is why they're so desperate to keep it that's why this whole desperate to say that we in the u.k. a federal bailout the only way for these countries to survive is to break out of this prison which is the auto zone. and as even struggles to preserve the euro and bring its runaway debt under control max kaiser and stacy herbert discussed whether italy's gold reserves might be making it a target a kaiser report is coming your way next hour but he. the preview by a four hundred tons ago. the second biggest position in the euro zone and that's the mother lode that i think that's been the target all along the green the ireland portugal those are side shows there are little micro-cap countries not much of a deal there but italy's got actual gold that the i.m.f. and the people who support the i.m.f. the terrorists as i mentioned like eric cantor there helping to facilitate the thieving of that twenty four hundred tons of gold because that is meaningful.

over up to a mistake they were taking some fairly generous assumptions about ability to repay there were sometimes overlooking some fairly fatal flaws in some derivative structures and it's fair to say i think most reasonable people would agree that perhaps the ratings agencies did contribute to the global financial crisis however i think there's been a notable improvement in standards over the course of the last two or three years and the fact that the ratings agencies now are actually getting so much criticism from european finance ministers probably suggest they're doing the job rather well . move to the markets now and while it is trading near a four day high after signs of a rising crude demand in the u.s. counted speculation of the world's biggest consumer of crude may face a credit downgrade by moody's the agency put the u.s. under review for rating downgrade as talks to raise its fourteen point three trillion dollars debt limit store for light sweet crude brant are down this hour
