worldwide news that live from moscow this is r t m n roll recent show it took just a few minutes for an earthquake and tsunami to devastate swathes of japan it's a tragedy that will take years to recover from and of for some people it's simply too much to deal with the trauma of thousands of lost lives entire towns leveled and the threat of nuclear catastrophe. is now reports on the ring a rise in japanese suicides. a triple disaster on a scale the world has never known causing damage destruction and uncertainty forcing tens of thousands of japanese refugees to leave their lives behind and seek shelter anywhere they can something to do. the bucket but but but the problem is they are a minority they be they have been accused by. their

classmates you know of course by offshore. causing the. following that. is not. primarily a move towards self-preservation this idea of desertion is defined by many as characteristically in japanese and has earned those who have evacuated the dishonorable title of traitor. of course it's hard to hear that we have family neighbors with think about our health but in other words we run away we escape because we're scared of radiation and there's no example in the world of something similar and the consequences are still ongoing. while those who have moved to shelters here in tokyo are facing that guilt and the pressure to move back home there are others who have lost everything cannot handle the overwhelming change and they are facing even darker demons japan already has one of the highest suicide

rates in the world and following the disaster in march the government has issued a warning about a possible nationwide epidemic of depression here are some organic farmers committed suicide because you know the organic farm us soil used everything they saw in fall after many hard work and it's just contaminated one thing. so. far so i'm very sad to hear the news. and many other farmers are also very much depressed a recent national survey in japan performed by dr roshini and his team shows that suicide rates in japan have been found increased in the months since the disaster compared to the same timeframe in the previous ten years but the demographics are not what you might expect. since

a late increase. in. the fear areas because some are birds struggling to. if they have not had to some to mix inside this disaster has certainly taken its toll on japan's economy and such constant reminders of an intense topic can harm the collective psyche of the people who live here as well because of the. tsunami disaster plus their disaster many people actually lost their jobs or working on this or was crushed. so. yeah they have a for many who read them to commit suicide. causing japan's death toll to keep rising even though the initial disaster subsided months before in japan john thomas over to. where the cleanup of the stricken fukushima nuclear plant has been praised

by the head of the u.n. nuclear watchdog he said that radiation could be contained by the end of the year yukiya amano is a visiting the facility to assess the progress in preventing the nuclear crisis from getting worse because she was reactors were heavily damaged by the earthquake and tsunami earlier this year because the core to melt the least dangerous amounts of radiation into the environment workers have since been trying to restore the cooling system and stop contaminated water from of the reactors into the sea but hiroshima based nuclear energy expert robert jacobs believes the i.a.e.a.'s visit is a fuss and the japanese government still isn't doing enough to protect people. in essence what this is is just just trying to give a nice shine to a terrible terrible situation and policy and not really in any way peeling with the actual problems that are facing us here and and least plans are still leaching radioactivity into the environment every day into the sea and through the steam of it coming into the air and what what's now preoccupied many people in japan is that

even for those of us that live far enough away that we thought we were not in any way threatened by the radiation from the plants we're now finding because of insufficient oversight to the food supply and public health questions that radiation is turning up in all kinds of food products so you're finding now people in far away from fukushima areas are now beginning to realize that they're not going to be escaping the radiation because of that distance and conditionally besides that there's still a rather chaotic policy about what will be happening in the areas that were contaminated near those plants but outside of being accusations so on for example pushing the city we know that neither tepco tokyo electric or the government inform the public when. they knew that there had been some nuclear meltdowns people were not told to evacuate at that time and in terms of the current situation there is a great deal of anger especially among parents in fukushima prefecture and nearby

that there is not a comprehensive system to try to protect the health of the people in those areas so you are seeing meetings every couple of days in which government officials are being yelled out by local residents who are complaining that they're not being given enough information about the health threats to their children and their families and this information is in many ways here in japan compounding. it was a nuclear energy expert a robert jacobs in in hiroshima explaining the current situation in japan. you with r.t. now barack obama is calling on the american people to step up to the plate to pressure their politicians in dealing with the standoff congress has one week left to raise the country's multi-trillion dollar debt ceiling if it wants to avoid a potentially devastating default in a nationwide interest obama warns that an american default would impact around the world in play and republicans for stalling talks and refusing to accept a balanced approach republican speaker john boehner hit back but using obama of

spending beyond the country's means and expecting a blank check with republicans and democrats agreement locked in a dispute over whether spending cuts or tax hikes is the answer to the crisis washington watcher matthew vitamin says the government needs to act fast to avoid an investor exodus. the obama and the democrats in congress just want to keep on spending. and so they would like to see the debt ceiling raised so that they can continue to give rewards to their supporters among the labor unions and the various political organizations that are sympathetic to the democratic party scars the u.s. is able to keep raising its debt ceiling because people investors around the world have confidence in the united states they believe that the u.s. government will honor its outstanding obligations and so as long as people have

faith in the investors have faith in the u.s. government in its credit worthiness then the u.s. could keep raising its debt ceiling the problem right now is that the debt is so high that that in itself is starting to become a negative factor that could lead to a credit rating downgrade of the united states government if china loses confidence in. america the american government's ability to pay its debts then the u.s. will have nowhere to run to the u.s. with the only the only choice it would have would be to keep printing money to inflate the currency run the printing presses and risk devastating hyperinflation or the u.s. government would have to drastically cut spending and implement pretty severe austerity measures now about some of its past the hour now here in the russian capital you without so you are still ahead for you this hour changing the charge for arguably norway's worst peacetime but please consider whether the man who

he's already on his way to the u.s. the move comes just days after top nuclear envoys from north and south korea got together for the first time in over two years during a security summit in indonesia they agreed to return to six party talks as soon as possible. broke down after north korea's deadly shelling of the south island what it claimed was in response to provoke a. military drills the u.s. says north korea must dismantle its nuclear facilities before any deal can be reached. says that would be tough as the north has always seen the u.s. as hostile. smacks a little bit of desperation specially because when you look at the real cause which is you can dismantle it you nuclear program first and then we decide to talk to you that's an absolute no no i was in north korea last year and i confirmed from north korean officials directly that this state awfully is the same state of play as it

was fifty eight years ago to more and more is that fifty eighth anniversary of the armistice that did not and did north korean or for that matter north korea south korea are still at war with each other and there's an armistice in the north koreans are saying we have to sit down the same people with the americans and then we going to formally and the war and then we're going to discuss everything including the nuclear program so this state apartment i was trying to joke again i said oh first you get rid of your nuclear weapons you know that hold on missiles and then we talk so orders in our good years are going to watch this special envoy is going to watch is going to say look our position has been missing for the past fifty eight years stake it or leave it first you have to end the war it's true and a war from the north korean point of view is a war against america is not south korea they view it as

a block to the government of the americas and they hear that south korea in the minds of young workforce is still all comply by american troops there are thirty six to thirty eight thousand u.s. troops but they're not korea says it has a western occupation ourselves korea so less you start to i really doubt this basic difference is important it's absolutely possible to start talking. you with r.t. thank you for joining us today from owner who's confessed to killing seventy six people in a rampage in norway may be charged with crimes against humanity thirty two year old anders breivik has already been charged in court with terrorism which he denies the bombing of government buildings in central oslo and the massacre at an island he was coming off friday devastated the nation one hundred thousand people gathered in the capital in a tribute to the victims says he targeted norway's leading party for failing on immigration crisis analysts say multiculturalism is

a reality we all have to accept even though more pain will come. i think europe and the world at large to to its credit has gone from an assimilationist mindset to a multiculturalist mindset and i think now we have to go to what i would call a medical sure all mindset we all need to embrace the idea that there is no there should no longer be separate cultures we are merging into a global culture which is going to require a change from both immigrants and native born people living in quote unquote their own countries we this miss said the status of cultures is going to be a net positive for all of us but unfortunately though the friction early on are going to be difficult as we're seeing with the graphic tragedy. we have more reaction and analysis on the tragedy and know why at some dot com including the police in the country faced criticism for want to be seen as a slow and ill prepared response to the devastating attack and other stores and

a family member is that you don't quite lose them because you take them with what. we were so long ago. you get that closely from some of the particular creativity but i don't think fame is a very or even success but in the creative environment in the you learn to to know what somebody else more than thinking you might not always be right but you have a feeling so i still feel that and roger does as well you know it particularly it applies more if we're working. as queen we think i would really say he would be given thirty days. yet he's part of the creative process because he's proud of what we are because we really chiseled this thing out all together me and joe brady and roger so i mean for a while i didn't want to you know i was very. it was a point you know the grieving process where i just didn't want to talk about we didn't want to feel that it was very and except it's history. sort of got through

that and now i regard it is part of my life which will never go away and it shouldn't go away because it's it's a big part of what i worked to create a question. but i do stick around here and i would say i will be talking to a crime a little bit later on in the program russia and the us supreme trying to find a common ground on nato has plans for a european missile defense talks in washington it's steaming ahead with the project despite objections from moscow we can now talk to russia's envoy to nato the head of the russian delegation to the us i dimitri goes. i thank you for joining us today so russia wants a joint missile shield in europe all guarantees that the system won't be aimed against it but nato has been very cool on both of these ideas is there any progress at your talks with u.s. officials today. when we don't get to go where you are well.

we are engaged in negotiation with both the military and diplomats on the highest level. i just came back from the command center of nato. and we basically finished off. with the general assessment being that. the russian federation will insist upon receiving certain going tease that the missile shield created by the eight states in europe will not be aimed against this rush is a strategic nuclear potential but there are two scenarios here. number one such a missile shield could be created with distribution from russia and i can tell you that the american military based in colorado springs have confirmed that it would be possible to create a system for early warning against

a ballistic missiles in europe using russia's which is a patient in their. experience but that would require political will from washington scenario number two. would be enough for two independent in nuclear but. created by both needle in russian but we still insist that the area of coverage for the needle missile shield would not surpass the territorial boundaries of leader countries that is would not allow me to member states to shoot down objects above russian territory of course we would not favor that there's also option number three i've just been to the senate and it said the senate republican minority who are absolutely against any cooperation with russia so you see the menu's quite diverse now the u.s. i mean time is up pushing ahead despite calls for striking

a deal with poland to the point fighter jets that feel neglected and washington are pursuing this. who. was here trying to convince us that placing. a piece for strategic missiles in poland would not threaten russia's new people ten show nuclear potential since for technical reasons these missiles would not be able to catch up with russia's intercontinental ballistic missiles we're being shown various their. pictures and graphs and their math calculations. but i cannot answer a single question even for myself. if there is no. military threat to europe coming from anywhere besides the southern erection then why is it said mrs hughes will be located in the northern part of the european

continent close to russia is north western border is close to kaliningrad or close to russia's strategic missile launch site nobody can answer this question for us and when we ask them for some legal guarantees that such a missile she would not be aimed against russia we're being told to go this party is in conflict between him and the democrats and republicans in the united states and they're telling us all those things that are there are of no interest for us is important for us is the editor of the united states he is the initiating party of this project and they should ensure increased security not less security for all the parties involved because the united states have confirmed that there is a relation between defensive and offensive arms now if you can move along to russia and nato is other bones of contention russia repeatedly accusing the alliance of

taking sides in the libyan civil conflict even germany which opposed to before is now funding the rebels with a hundred million euros or dollars that is what do you make of their actions at this point. again discussing the libya containing this was outside my competence as united states and this is there any issue we keep discussing in brussels and with the new leadership but i can tell you one thing even within the north atlantic treaty organization not everybody understands what this war is about right now and not everybody understands what they should do they actually and each of their military goals of. killing khadafi this is you can be in that nobody really needs this is the west dissipating of me and it's someone else's military conflict here and whatever sense in washington anybody know from working in brussels in this container is they're

increasingly marginalized in the political outlook some of our european and american politicians and diplomats and even give that is so the question is who will be held responsible for waging this war for killing all those people and destroying all their property life promised washington d c i russia as i enjoy tonight i dimitri many thanks. after a short break here in just a moment with kareena. for the food we've got it's. the biggest issues get the cuban voice face to face with the news makers.
