in india all these available in the movie the joint the chills the movie that's the case we go to the grand imperial truly the taj was the push coromandel you can a with a little closely to see don't need to go. run to the kennel was hotel as risky retreat. tonight on our t.v. dead rollercoaster in the last hour a plan to avoid a u.s. debt default fails a vital senate vote but the clock is ticking on the countdown to choose days deadline. politics response ability for the plane crash that killed president kaczynski last year but the published report still tries to shift some of the plane to russia. i. shadowed of egypt up to one hundred fifty thousand that the government protests and by the streets and squares of israeli cities demanding prime minister netanyahu steps down.

as his r.t. live from moscow you're watching the weekly with me kevin owen it's surrounded by the main news stories for most of the last seven days first though less than an hour ago republicans in the u.s. senate voted to delay a democrat proposal to resolve the debt crisis is there isn't a very narrow window of time for the u.s. to raise the debt ceiling which expires on tuesday before the vote there was more protracted bickering on american t.v. networks. as a nexus from new york. sunday morning on all the talk shows here in new york we saw these u.s. lawmakers give interviews the republican saying a close deal deal is close to being reached the democrats coming on t.v. saying that it's inching closer but there's no final agreement because the entire

congress cannot agree or the lawmakers cannot agree on where to cut make cuts if the debt ceiling is raised so what we see is just another chapter in a long walk of of us bickering of political posturing we are seeing u.s. lawmakers get in front of the cameras day after day fight show the fact that they can't come together and agree we see an election year that is approaching and clearly the republicans and those that are opposed to president barack obama us president obama are taking the opportunity to try to put him in a very weak and in secure position in the meantime it is compromising the u.s. economy overall since one thousand nine hundred sixty the u.s. has raised the debt ceiling seventy eight times the pattern of the u.s. economy and legislators and their structure here has been borrow and spend borrow and spend and what has created this uncertainty among investors among american

citizens among wall street business owners is the fact that there's never been a plan in place on how to cut the deficit how to bring down the spending and stop laura ling. and that drama also continues to unfold in europe too with more struggling economies being dragged in. we should bump it is it greece from the euro zone long ago the greek drain weighs heavily on spraying the country prepares for the worst over its credit rating because of its eurozone stablemates instability got a full report back in a few minutes for a. more thorough admits its crew was responsible for last year's fatal plane crash in western russia that killed president lech kaczynski along with dozens of the country's ruling elite but the inquiry still a part of the blame on moscow saying that russian air traffic controllers also contributed to the disaster that is alexina as yesterday reports next on how the national tragedy has just become a pawn in

a political. 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 the wing is detached the aircraft begins their iteration 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 and. here's where the proto controller two thousand meters away should have told the crew to stop descending the horizon command should have been issued exactly at this moment when the show's landing zone controller was performing his

duty in an incorrect way. such statements come as little surprise to experts with some of them saying acceptance of call 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 son of the blame on somebody else aviation experts and this opinion calling the swipes against the russian side and substantial some of the claims concerning the airport all 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 that the decision height you have no other choice than to raise the landing gear and go to your reserve or the initial rush and that investigation was greeted by an avalanche 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 good well thought tactics and. i think we are 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 that 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 break through all speculation regarding this plane crash but instead it could once again be used as a political tool experts say the timing of the publication is not consider this could be exploited also in the political electoral campaign because this should we know that in two months after being. interactions this report and all that issue

but if your tablet will be use it or even misuse it in 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 ago and has shuffled it off under his staff nevertheless he is responsible for all the games he played with the russians he's responsible but the poles were 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 decide who is still deciding whether to admit to playing 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 lasting blame game let's hear a chance steve r.t. reporting from warsaw in poland. often. in-depth look at the timeline of the polish

presidential plane crash take a look at our web site. the party wants online as a second by second analysis by the interstate aviation commission with a transcript of the cockpit voice recorder providing a detail perspective on the cause of the tragedy from check it out already it's there whenever you want to see it r.t. . israel's become the latest middle east country to see nationwide anti-government protests some one hundred fifty thousand people took to the streets on saturday night after more than two weeks of rallies protesters are demanding a prime minister binyamin netanyahu step down unless he undertakes sweeping economic reforms of his policy or attended the biggest demonstration in tel aviv. well these are the other two hundred fifty thousand people here with the most popular chant being read to monitor social justice

a whole new way of speakers have been taking to the stage they have 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 if you try his name is mentioned he is god why are you fair tonight i'm here because it's just becoming possible to live in this country anymore we work again how can we give in we keep on giving now and there's no end to this is the first chance this is the only hope we have to change just because you don't have any other choice would you say people have been inspired by the demonstrations taking place there. for what it's all signed saying. guzzlers on us why do you want him to go home. to go on because of the police and how much of these demonstrations i mean inspired by the protests we saw taking place in arab world well i think there's a lot of influence of what happened in the ground and now syria lebannon and what

we see in libya also there's a lot of words of post that when people understandably have the power that they can they can organize by them does they don't need any more the government to tell them what to do they can start telling the government what they want. to do you know they can they can start deciding for themselves people power but you know what they said is the spirit of revolution here a number of israeli populists on singers have also been taking to the stage and why some never sung have a chorus and i'm translating this is the new middle east and we created a storm if you chose it's up to us. parties smitty's correspondent paula sleep i mean tom a country which is one of the clouds of its own storm for a while is still in the blood shed dozens of series to kill that we're continuing on together. crackdown on protesters we are very soon x. what will bring about peace for

a country locked in. next hour. next though the debt crisis raging in europe is claiming more and more economic sculpts spain's suffering recession and mass unemployment has now been put on review by the credit rating agency moody's the international monetary fund is one france that it needs to impose cuts to avoid becoming europe's next debt crisis victim this is the e.u.'s biggest borrower greece has been dealt another blow by one of its main credit is to have the finance minister says berlin write a blank check to buy greek bonds was a key part of last week's second bailout package well i suppose we can all mix or patrick young who told me greece children pushed out of the euro zone long ago. this is typical of contagion we've been talking about it for weeks we have you know when you get some degree of illness and it goes through the body ultimately you have to decide when to amputate it and the truth is we should have amputated greece from the euro zone long ago there are fundamentals huge problems going all the way

through the euro zone and we don't have any leaders who are willing to give us a sustainable solution we've got the situation at the moment where provincial libraries in northern germany are being closed because the money isn't there because it's being used to fund people in the mediterranean i think german voters are going to get very angry about that very very soon and i actually think the political will is not there amongst the people to endlessly keep bailing out there so there never is it's going to be a huge problem because ultimately the contagion is going to hit and i really do believe that after last week's events unfortunately we only inch closer to the idea of a tool called be a real meltdown well u.s. economic bailout burden will be affecting the euro zone's richest members but it's also hitting the poorest ones too hard and countries like slovakia whispering crushed under the weight of europe's debt crisis sarah furthur reports next on where the membership of the euro is failing to live up to its promises. they say

that charity starts at home well sort of back here maybe one of the poorest the countries with pressure from the e.u. to participate in a second bailout their money could soon be going to greece eight of them i'll tell you what joining the euro zone brought responsibilities but not benefits in fact slovakian pensions are significantly lower than days increase people here at this home michel to tell us they barely cover their food costs with the money they receive you have to. deal with homelessness. have to reform our pension system our health care system was never enough money. back in two thousand and nine when slovakia joined the here is a it was such high hopes it was also kind of. that we did for one america hungary and the republic. for the one from some for europe to be you know if you're

a club but the you're using it seems isn't all it was cracked up simply as rejoined you're of the wrong there was always going through goodwill saying birds of one country. or just this one country in may two thousand changed dramatically days like that of year a gang may well now be breathing a sigh of relief if that neighboring not only here is a new countries have felt the benefits slayback shoppers have been heading to their check out in a bid to escape the year a we come just across the border from the bank it's the czech republic where the superstore out there doing a building business is 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 vacuums retail revenues have fallen dramatically and the high prices nina tourism industries have been hit hard certainly not the results hopeful

. when they first joined out but every club has its leaders and what they say apparently case even if they are once you put you into trouble in the first place you see be a creator of all the countries are. the ones are as german born so. make it possible for a greek. so much money can made eclipse repeating this time it's left many of days at first so eager to join the year gang feeling there now simply being around their stance that back in. the economic woes are also putting other e.u. countries under immense pressure from within it's leading in fact affairs the very heart of europe could be left broken belgium the seat of the e.u. headquarters might be about to split into two that's because of a growing divide between the dutch speaking north and the french speaking south as he's done a bushel reports next the country's internal squabbles are sending

a warning signal to other nations. so divorced before planning their next murray age but not well lowly of the southern region of belgium the contras been with delta fictive government for a record fourteen months free to speak in the cells and flemish speaking flanders in the north disagree on pretty much everything many analysts and most likely outcome will see the country break into as soon as it splits with floor this is complete the world will look to hook up with france richer or poorer but mainly for brit show. going it alone when you're a small region is clearly not appealing they say political clout is important the main appeal is money. alone is part of france in everything but name it we have the same language we watch french t.v. not belgian but above all our economy is controlled by french firms with polls suggest that hole from 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 bill jump with france president sarkozy's ruling party and the opposition are already in talks to tie the knot we have contacts with other parties. and we have contacted the socialist it has been confirmed to us that's in case belgium will speed up then it will be welcome in france. the biggest party in the northern half wants the split to. save bill james 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 of vice versa king albert is bill jones national day last week was its last he added the crisis threatens not just every building but european integration itself a continual trail with e.u.

two powers now emerging users in the world and the fact that the united states has pretty much surrounded close to china with pieces that go all the way from central asia to the north pacific that's the context in which this takes place or news in brief not least eleven people have been killed in a blast at the police headquarters in southern afghanistan taliban's next month's ability for a suicide car bomb attack in the city of lashkar gah local authorities say most of the victims were police officers most less than a fortnight since the nato led forces formally handed over security in the city to afghan troops. now that near the volcano on the telly in and out of sicily is making its presence known live in for eruptions already this month and this is the biggest one yet with flames and burning out a shooting two hundred fifty meters up into the sky a fair up again on saturday morning and continued into the weekend no casualties or damage have been reported so far. it may be nearly six months

since the earthquake and tsunami devastated japan but the number of dead connected to the tragedy continues to rise because suicide rates are on the way up when the government fears a depression epidemic could be on the horizon. thomas reports. a triple disaster on a scale the world has never known causing damage and 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. of of the problem is the minority. the they have been accused by. their classmates all you know. of course by offshore. that they are causing. these 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 that of course it's hard to hear that we have family neighbors or 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 know each other good soil for after many hours of hard work and it's just contaminated one night into so. far. 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 two years of the demographics are not what you might expect. late in crete. in the epicenter of the desperation because that. is because so i birds struggling to. live if they have not had 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 the real disaster many people actually lost their jobs or working on the show was crushed. so. yeah they have of so many good reasons to commit suicide. causing japan's death toll to keep rising even though the initial disaster has subsided months before in japan sean thomas over cheap pain continuous now just over fifteen minutes and i can't say she could lead a sport run for you with a serious case well below the top of the russian premier league current child gives it its slight gain as we find out shortly here outside a sunday in the thirty first of july with me kevin no headlines coming up shortly.
