a very warm welcome to you this is live from moscow now there's still no concern between u.s. lawmakers on tapping the country's debt crisis as the senate fails to agree on a deal proposed by the democratic party on friday a proposal to raise the debt ceiling was passed in the house of representatives but the senate that hours later the u.s. capitol remains in deadlock as they try to avoid default ahead of tuesday's deadline washington observer matthew vaden says the government needs to act fast to avoid an investor existence. 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's cause 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 he was secretary of state hillary clinton rushed to reassure asian leaders this week that the debt debate would be settled on time beijing as americans that big. pensions with washington's financial and investment analyst peter says china could even dump the dollar as its

main risk of commons. we can't afford bad relations with china see beijing holds the cards you know we're dancing to the tune that they play the real problem for china is that there's no way that america can pay back the money that the chinese are very low interest politically it's just not going to happen is specially when interest rates rise i'm surprised it's taken the chinese so long to figure out that they've been throwing a lot of good money after bad i don't think we're going to default i think we're going to inflate which is just as bad but you know we're going to raise the debt ceiling the problem is the debt not the ceiling the sooner the chinese start to stop enabling this phony economy that we have the sooner we as americans can begin to repair the damage and what's going to happen is where the dollar collapses americans are going to see a big reduction in our standards of living. i made sure now we take a closer look at other struggling economy he said dashed to some aids patients to

off to bailing out the greek debt and now fighting for their own find out to survival. plan in the lives of the economic one step which is they have been sinking the medicine in belgium sparking fears of a chain reaction across the whole of europe. well so refuses to shoulder full responsibility for the polish presidential plane crash in western russia saying russian traffic controllers also contributed to the aviation dissolve the crash killed the late president lech kaczynski and dozens of the country's leading in the spring and the aussies that's yet cesky reports and many in poland on happy that the national tragedy has become a political weapon. another day another blame game poland's very own probe into last year's presidential plane crash all but confirmed the findings of russia's investigation that the crew was almost solely responsible for the tragedy. at this point there is an obstacle a tree that the aircraft collides with

a fragment of the left wing is detached the aircraft begins there are taishan but let me emphasize it's not that the tree was too high the aircraft had simply been at a location where it shouldn't have been it seems the very things that got in the way of the plane are now getting in the way of warsaw taking full responsibility and trees are not the only thing rooted in poland failing to see eye to eye with moscow . here's where the approach controller two thousand metres away should have told the crew to stop descending the horizon command should have been issued exactly at this moment on the shows that the landing zone controller was performing his duty in an incorrect way on this day. such statements come as little surprise to experts with some of them saying acceptance of total responsibility would be impossible for the polish society they've been given the truth and the truth is unbearable they can't take it now i don't think that the polish investigators think they can pin

the blame on anybody else but i do think that they are looking to pin some of the blame on somebody else aviation experts echoed this opinion calling the swipes against the russian side unsubstantial some of your claims concerning the airport or controllers they have nothing to do with the crash i've been a pilot for over thirty years and i know a simple rule if you don't see the runway or it's like of the decision height you have no other choice than to raise the landing gear and go to your reserve airport the initial russian lead an investigation was greeted by a novel launch of criticism from some movements in poland they expressed doubts about. the reliability of the report often based on anti russian sentiment and some experts say it is not pure emotion driving this but well thought tactics get the point if you can hear i think we're now witnessing some political games to shift the blame from the polish side of i was an expert in this commission and i was

surprised to learn to the crew was chosen immediately before the flight such a poor preparation for such a high profile flight publication of this report had been delayed for several months and was very much anticipated in poland it was meant to put paid to all speculation regarding the plane crash but instead it could once again be used as a political tool experts say the timing of the publication is not coincidental this could be exploited also in the political electoral campaign because this should be known that the. actions this report and all of that issue but if your tablet will be. even easier than the electoral campaign and the twin brother of the late president kaczynski was quick to prove this suggestion with a sharp round about the report the prime minister to say has no courage to take up the responsibility for the plane crash and has shuffled it off on to his staff

nevertheless he is responsible for all the games he played with the russians he's responsible for not conducting or even participating in the investigation he's responsible for not defending polish interests and at the international forum will get to the bottom of this case as this is what we owe to those who died while the polish society is still deciding whether to admit the plane full responsibility which comes with a report experts are speculating whether this is a fair and objective investigation or an attempt to please all the players in the long lost and blame game. r.t. reporting from warsaw in poland. israel. has become the latest middle east country to see nationwide antigovernment protests with tens of thousands of demonstrators taking to the streets in major cities process to say they'll demand that the prime minister binyamin netanyahu steps down unless he undertakes sweeping economic reforms on his policy was following developments to tell of the for the biggest

rally took place all these easily a hundred and fifty thousand people here with the most popular chanting we demand a social justice a whole new way of speakers have been taking to the stage they've been calling on unity and message coming across very strongly is one by one people here can bring change a lot of criticism being leveled at the israeli prime minister bibi netanyahu in fact every time his name is mentioned he is why are you here tonight i'm here because it's just becoming her city to live in this country anymore we work we give out and we do and we keep on giving though and there's no end to this is oh this is only we have to change those because we don't have any other choice so would you say people have been inspired by the demonstrations taking place there as well as or what is your sign saying the rewards are going to go you guys are leaders on earth why do you want him to go home. alone because of the distance how much of

these demonstrations i mean inspired by the protests we saw taking place in arab world oh well i think there's a lot of influence of what happened in the. syria lebannon and what you see in libya also there's a lot of influence of those and that's when people understand they have the power that they can they can organize by them does it don't need any more of their government to tell them what to do they can start throwing the government what they want. to do you know they can they can start deciding for themselves take the power back to you so they sent is the spirit of revolution here a number of israeli populace son singers have also been taking to the stage and one song that was sung had the chorus and i'm translating this is the new middle east we created the storm the future it's up to us. so coming up you know all c cross a border trouble is the protest against nation taking able border crossings with

kosovo but have been a falling victim to territorial breasts but we also. japan's triple disaster continues to claim lives month to a devastating earthquake and tsunami triggered the fukushima nuclear disaster a different way it's gripping the country one of depression and suicide. and in europe the number of struggling the economy seems to be increasing the spain suffering recession and unemployment has been pouring viewed by the credit rating agency moody's for all its has been also warned by the international monetary fund that it needs cuts to avoid becoming the next victim of the debt crisis the i.m.f. says the country's credit rating could be at risk of austerity measures are taken and the e.u.'s biggest borer greece has received another blow from one of its main creditors germany's finance minister says well write a blank check to buy back greek bonds a key measure agreed as part of last week's second bailout package financial journalist you had over belt says the rescue package is simply banks paying money

to other banks. we're bailing out the banks and we wouldn't be that soft i presume with greece if there wasn't the problem of the french and german banks not only of the company but of course they are the major players if they were that vulnerable throughout the greek situation and beat were throwing money at the banks through greek this wreckage will certainly not help the greek economy or the greek economy needs growth and since you're in the midst of a very bad recession blige a country that spending to increase taxes then throwing some money at it is not the solution. or smaller e.u. countries like the republican slovakia all say feel their economy is being crushed under the weight of the currency crisis bailouts for here is a member states nations like some back here are feeling the pinch of press reports

some say the expectations of prosperity after entering the european union have found. they say that charity starts it has been well served like you may be one of the poorest countries with pressure from the e.u. to participate in the second bailout their money could soon be going to greece it on them and i'll tell you what joining the euro zone brought responsibilities but not benefits in fact slovakian pensions a significantly lower than days in greece people here at this hey michel to tell us they barely cover their food costs with the money they receive we have to now. deal with homelessness we have to reform our pension system our health care system this never enough money. back in two thousand and nine when slovakia's joined here is a it was such high hopes it was also kind of prestige to be the first one america

hungry and stricter public policy people. we have a first one from central europe to be you know in the zero club that the year is saying it seems isn't all it was cracked up to be as we join the euro zone there was always been treated that was saying that that's of one country liability just this one country in may two thousand turned the rules changed dramatically there is left as of the year a gang may well now be breathing a sigh of relief if a neighboring new year is in countries have felt the benefits slave actual players have been heading to their check out in a bid to escape the year and we come just across the border fence the backyard to the czech republic where these super store outlets doing a boom in business more and more people make the regular journey to do their shopping because the prices here is simply much cheaper with people now shopping outside the country vacuous retail revenues have fallen dramatically in the high

prices mean the tourism industries have been hit hard certainly not the results hopeful when they first joined but every club has its leaders and what they say apparently gays even if they're the ones who got you into trouble in the first place you see be created this is the reason that all of the countries in europe on our. homeward journey the greek bonds are as good as german bonds so. make it possible for greek to borrow so much money back in may be contributing this time that's left many of those at first so eager to join the euro gang feeling they're now simply being pushed around their affairs back in. no way could have witnessed even more bloodshed last week isn't surreal the man who admitted the recent shooting a ball massacre was reportedly planning to attack open targets with the palace and the headquarters the routing made of party were believed to have been part of on

the plans. down raining down tunnels there being a massive fuel compete in seventy seven people who died but it has expressed strong anti muslim opinions which were described as good or even excellent by one right wing italian m.e.p. politicians that radical views triggered outrage in the european parliament and calls for his resignation however there are some commentators they believe the strong views were tried growing support across heroes. i think this is tat really highlighting it is your changing and you're been changing for a while but it's got a relatively economically stable influx integrated so you know if you're across the border in norway in particular have a pretty decent two thousand to two thousand and ten what you're seeing now is with the deed reason living standards with you know a lot more confusion particularly in the lower classes about job security you're going to see a lot more focus on immigrants i think you're going to see

a lot more islamic extremism and i think you're going to see a lot more break really extremism particularly in this in even in countries most menorah regions probably didn't know that i was twenty five percent immigration who were private they knew a lot more statistics now i think you're going to see you know people saying well gosh this guy was the greatest lieutenant but we have another pretty serious problem too so we don't actually and i think you know i think you will see a lot of you know people tend to be are more right wing and right i mean groups definitely say yeah clearly don't shoot children but he guys he kind of know what. belgium is a hotbed of international politics in european representation however this prosperous country failing to resolve its own internal differences as ours is than no pressure of course the countries north south powers couples are spending a warning think. so way to get divorced before planning their next marriage but not one load near the southern region of belgium the country's been

without effective government for a record fourteen months free speech in the cells and flemish speaking floor in the north disagree on pretty much everything many analysts think the most likely outcome will see the country break into as soon as it splits with floor does this complete the world will look to hook up with france for richer or poorer but mainly for. going it alone when your small region is clearly not appealing they say political clout is important the main appeal is money that is the one who. is part of france in everything but name that we have the same language we watch french t.v. no belgian but above all our economy is controlled by french firms. polls suggest that. sixty percent of the french want to become one presidential front runner marine le pen last week said she would with the southern half of belgium withdraw

its president sarkozy's ruling party and the opposition are already in talks to tie the knot we have contacts with other parties with you m.p. and we have contacted the socialist it has been confirmed to us that's in case belgium would speed up then one would be welcome in france. the biggest party in the northern half want to split two experts say build gyms already divided people don't know any more about the other half of the country the flemish people don't know who are the popular singers or writers today in the french speaking part and vice versa. albert fields bill james national day last week was its last he added the crisis threatens not just every building but european integration itself. the e.u. is scared that the divorce of belgium will spark up the rest of europe catalonia leaving to be scotland leaving a britain where reducing separatist marchers in mixed community towns here turned

violent with guns getting it takes just one big clash from brussels to become. that conflict killing suffered in europe since world war two was told to each other as you can slow of your broke up and the determination of regional identity is not to be underestimated fridge unionists say they have the flag and everything else worked out to become france's twenty eight region all that's left are the details the new bush will see rossi's. series of clashes that the cost of a border this week led to nato forces taking over control of crossings on wednesday cos of in can we see the checkpoints set previously controlled by so. vision shortly after one of the crossings was attacked by some two hundred prices he threw fire bombs and torched a customs office they say forces then took control of the post coming under attack

in the process crowds blocking allied convoys from reaching a base in the north of the country is an act of protest balkans policy that market says concept but not without the go ahead from what he called its puppet masters and. you should bear in mind that the british. leaders could have done nothing without the ok from the us administration and we know that the us has got a massive investment cause always got the biggest military base in the world income still smack bang in the heart of kosovo and so. everything that the priest in a couple gets up to is all surprised by washington in the first place having said that the poverty in kosovo over for all peoples albanians as well as serbians is so huge that they're suffering already under this combined washington regime which has brought them nothing but poverty and pain and really has done nothing for the region but bring organ harvesting and pain and quality to everybody we know who can

stop it and it is time that the us administration stopped its extremist puppets in prishtina from even further expanding into. recognized territorial area. the four of the russian u.s. reset could soon be reversed by cold war era attitudes that was the comment from russia's envoy to naysay following this week's talks the senate is in washington or the me or our goals in the visit was part of fresh efforts by russia to revive talks on a common missile defense system in europe but is a brac a promise being rational by russophobe go to turn this into a political weapon america wants the creation of this shell something russia's envoy compared to drawing a guard that will point in every direction but the intended target here that time is running out to reverse the negative attitudes before the us presidential election but i wasn't told r.t. that russia is determined to meet its personal space of interest protect it. but if

you there are questions that remain unanswered if missile threats against europe come from the south why is the us placing part of its military infrastructure in the north close to russia's borders this is the question that we can't get an answer to when we ask for legal guarantees that the system is not aimed at russia we're told there's a big conflict between republicans and democrats in congress and they start to explain that conflict but we're not interested in that what's important for us is that the u.s. is behind this project and they should provide security for all partners otherwise it's like when you come home and discover somebody else's bodyguard sitting in your bedroom he's been sent to provide your security who's going to like that so if our suggestions are rejected and it's understood that iran is just a reason to have to plan russia's nuclear potential is the real target then russia will come up with its own military response which nobody is going to like. the earthquake that devastated japan may have happened in march but the country's death toll is still rising suicide rates have increased since the radiation crisis

unfolded following a massive tsunami with the government oppression epidemic. r.t. shaun thomas has been supplanted find out why so. many people that are taking that line. 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 some people do. the bucket but the problem is the minority they be they have been accused by. their classmates all you know of course by offshore. causing. people. 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 members with think about our health but in other words we run away we escape because we're scared of radiation but there is 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. soil is everything

they have good soil for after many. just contaminated one night to go so. far so i'm very sad to hear the news and many other 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 two years but the demographics are not what you might expect. increased. note. but if you're areas because some barbers struggling to you costs. they have no time to make suicide 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 nuclear disaster many people lost their jobs or their working on the show was crushed. so. yeah they have so many good reasons to commit suicide causing japan's death toll to keep rising even though the initial disaster subsided months before in japan sean thomas or two. russian soldiers are celebrating it navy day this sunday the events already seeing festivities at the country's major ports with warship parades and theatrical productions all russia's president took part in celebrations at russia's western base cleaning that weekend to see the cult. feat the law and the natives founded by itself is the first in the seventeenth century these days its main force consists of nuclear powered missile carrying something really frigates on still want to
