to outright caution concern over the likelihood of an unstable rebel government trauma caused by competing interests. a very warm welcome to you this is artsy live from moscow with me rory sushi so we start off with breaking news the fast moving developments in libya rebels say they now control most of tripoli and have taken the libyan state t.v. off the air but some reports also suggest that opposition fighters have been looting private houses another of the company's sons meantime is in a rebel custody position leaders say a large number of their fighters have been killed there are reports the rebels are closing in on khadafi compound but the whereabouts of the colonel remain unknown and some rumors suggest that gadhafi may be in talks with south. a possible escape

route despite denials from both sides and nato insists it will continue combat air patrols until all government forces servent the following a night of chaos in the capital the crowds have been seen in central square waving revolutionary acts. over now i joined a live which analyst a muddy oir who was in the hotel in tripoli where the foreign press have been obliged to state during all of this hello to you us so what is the situation in the hotel where you are now when we last spoke to you and heard random gunfire outside but also mentioned a while to get off the loyalists to come inside the hotel for medical treatment what's the what's the latest. situation and more tense more members of the previous hotel staff and security. the media group who is responsible for us have returned with guns obviously has been refining these are volunteers and all soldiers he returned with news from the fighting and it truly is
10:03 am

10:04 am
the ones that are actually security guard turned actress security guards that's who they really are i said we have to take action soon now they have expressed their own extraction times and i believe. that you don't swear not reporting as for not reporting within the framework of this consensus i'd like to endanger. us we're getting networks and if anything happens to us i think. anything happens to us i know he's not going. to get on a threatening nice a friend british national british nationals national french national. this is not acceptable you know just because we're not going with new york. in new york. and new york coverage in the u.s.
10:05 am
when i'm going right now when it was present to you is not winning i think try to see it is a back to the military here with their responsibility to protect which i never saw back greener or saudi arabia and they're seeing this cut their troops cut your this is a bit people we saw. there and they were very confident and to be honest if you are a guy just a little more seen one of them is young man and he works you know. one of the journalists. there you go. on peaceful. and i want you to when you feel you think it's right here you want to get me to go up thing here but you don't you talk about feeling threatened certain by the rebel forces who have taken control of our center as always it was also the loyalists oh no no not the way we feel threatened by rebels invited them to journalists out so you right now and you know. i think these are not real drinks. you know reviewing
10:06 am
stand or what do you do you have a safe house too you have a safe room with not to sit up there was a way where can you seek shelter if you know if you need. the russian embassy said be a welcome us we can't get there because the strain in front of the cuban embassy. you hear the fighting it started with it's getting very becoming you know it's you know discussion god knows what can happen. it's a green court and into the real international community no new countries action to get us out of here and now you just ask me if i hear if i hear the latest i got i was that gunfire was that possibly nato bombing. there was gunfire me i have been. going for. you did say earlier that you have but it is imposed on us and it is in the immediate vicinity of your hotel i mean it's your neighborhood to say under siege. is my neighborhood in d.c.
10:07 am
but yes if somebody was sure i don't know if they did i'm sorry to say i cannot go on her chair and once in a person should be left in their car and be asked to come back with a message was. maybe i'm letting you know that the messages we are hearing on the ground there are conflicting for the report see what al-jazeera seen. and you can get very upset very upset a. good thing you know going the way the law. will try to explain to you later because there's a. life for us there in tripoli many thanks indeed. all right i will members of the european union have once again called on it i think it's a relinquish power but euphoria over the ongoing assault on tripoli is fading replaced by concern that the new government may not have the authority needed to bring and maintain peace i thought about it as following the reaction from other. as the house come out and address the press he said it's clear the end is in sight
10:08 am
now and get out because regime is toppling around he stressed the need for a smooth and rapid transfer to a new democratic leadership in the country that will be the national transitional council that. recognize them the just move leadership of libya they already have a diplomatic representation here in london. and he said the need for that is obviously so that the libyan people can be in charge of their own fate and that's the main goal he stressed however at the same time as all that he did acknowledge that nato forces will remain in the country for quote as long as it takes to really he's prepared for it to take longer than the maybe desirable david cameron the prime minister did also say that britain is prepared now to release the frozen assets and give them back to the libyan people however there is some aren't certainty of who that will go to and how that will be used exactly the other uncertainty is of course kidnapping himself his exact whereabouts is still unknown
10:09 am
there are confirmed reports that he's still in tripoli france germany and italy have all backed up britain's claim that this is the end a beginning of the end they're all heralding it is a new beginning but it's not over yet i mean it's still twenty five approximately twenty percent of tripoli's under the control of the dappy forces that's according to the rebels themselves and despite all that the e.u. is already saying it's not the wheels in motion of his post is that the plan however would have been the end of the time needed to carry its situation in the post dictatorship. of course with iraq unlike iraq iran libya is sitting on this vast oil wealth that complicates matters. severely but unlike iraq here in libya the coalition are saying that they've got this the foundations of a government already in place this national transitional council already recognized by britain. france germany greece in that they will be keen to avoid another round
10:10 am
that nick clegg the deputy prime minister has already said that they're in for the long haul they say may have learned those lessons and that is going to. lead the insurgence revenge killings to try and achieve this new transition and meantime a briton has sworn to stand by the fractured transitional government in the days and weeks ahead but self interest may be the driving force behind at london's promises that's according to john reese of the stop the walker bush. got rid of gadhafi and nobody going to shed any tears for that brutal dictatorship but i imagine that what most people in libya don't want is to swap the rule of capacity for that of the western powers and part of the problem here is of course the way in which daffy has fallen today has been the single biggest day of nato air operations in the entire history of this intervention so it's quite clear that here and see will come to power as
10:11 am
a proxy use of the western powers and the western powers don't do this without asking for a payback and they will be asking for a payback if i were a libyan and i were listening to david cameron's speech or if i had listened to what nato said earlier that they want to assist the transition to knows what a military alliance supposedly assisting a transition to democracy is all about i would take those remarks as more of a threat than a promise that is a direct threat for david cameron that they will use their military and economic weight to gain what they want out of any new government in libya the only chance of unity for the t.n.c. is that they do what most libyans i believe want them to do and that is to say that the future of libya has to be decided by libyans and by nobody else but they do not require the systems of nato that they do not require the assistance of the major powers that they do not want their resources exploited by western oil companies that could be
10:12 am
a point of unification but if they continue down the line of competing amongst themselves for who has the ear who has the greatest the greatest sway with the major powers then i really i really believe that that will further divide them. meantime the french president nicolas sarkozy will hold talks with the leader of the libyan transitional government later today by telephone and a multinational oil giants have already started to move their workers into now the vacant well fields he's trying to push we're going to the latest reaction now from europe the french defense minister gerard long says that has called for a meeting in paris to plan what he calls a road map for libya french france's foreign ministry says the talks are underway at the highest level and that nicolas sarkozy the french president will meet with gibril be head of the transitional council later today monday france is that the transitional council will need help as it moves forward now as it plans its future libya is
10:13 am
a potentially prosperous country but it needs assistance from the west if it's to come through with those plans to brussels the you were representatives have said that as the united states seems to be taking a backseat in these negotiations they see an opportunity to fill that vacuum you admitted the hard work lies ahead and the divisions between rebel factions means that it will be a difficult time because when there was a single enemy in gadhafi it was very easy for various factions some with very different interests to hold together and now there are fears that this may collapse and there may be a power vacuum france in fact claimed that its war mission in libya is over now defense experts here in the european union all concerned by such statements because with the absence of gadhafi in any sort of real power structure there are concerns that there could be an even more bloody civil war emerging some analysts do see the potential for western powers to devoid of libya according in petition in particular
10:14 am
to the oil interests shares in italy's ball joint any short on news that it has sent workers into libya already to work on that country's oil fields. he's trying to push a report right there as the fall of gadhafi government in tripoli is apparently moving closer speculation about who will get control of libya's a vast oil reserves has already started the key question is indeed oil it is well known it is a wall for all that these so-called position government has promised to give the old two from. great britain the united states actually this government does not exist it's corporate governance and of course it's about it's always about pork you have many disagreements inside the alarms the airlines the i did prize this he considered himself a cup of the world and asked. after you slimy
10:15 am
a story of county stanley b.-a who are the going to attack the key question is when will the public opinion week finally end see we don't need these kind of aggressions the killings we don't print ring of the results is we need a solution to the economic and social problems of europe playing united states the white house has hailed the rebels advance into tripoli saying that the situation is at a tipping point president obama once again called on the libyan leader to acknowledge reality and give up power immediately after the gun if you cannot trust us live from washington d.c. with more gynae what else did president obama have to say. well worry as it's got the regime is collapsing with enormous help with nato when their air strikes washington says they were in close contact with the lead rebels leadership and that the u.s. will support and here i quote president obama a peaceful transition to democracy well everything that was going on in tripoli
10:16 am
this weekend was anything but peaceful we're talking about extensive media bombing of the city before the rebels made it to the central square of tripoli we've seen the rebels cheering all night that appearing much reminded of what we saw in cairo when hosni mubarak was ousted but up until now as we know the people in egypt are not governed by who they chose as they leaders and similar things happen in other colors revolutions when people ended up with not what they wanted and in the view of those who took over and that is the transitional national council have now been chosen by the weekend people get the council has been recognized as a legitimate power in the via by all allies who's been helping oust gadhafi many libyans are outraged by the fact that foreign powers have essentially made those very important choices for them. the u.n. mandate for nato is a military mission expires next month but has nato been under pressure to topple gadhafi before the deadline we know a couple of weeks ago the nato sort of message to rebel leaders are telling them to
10:17 am
hurry up and to finish there's a nato wouldn't continue to prop up this revolution. well exactly the word has been going on for six months it took many lives and drew a lot of criticism nato is facing a deadline in september when a resolution for strike says to newt and given all the violations that have taken place it would be very hard to get everyone on board for extending the campaign with what we're seeing on the ground it looks like they have met but bear in mind it's important to know that colonel gadhafi had no friends in the international community after what he had done to his people and the whole of the international community has been has so far been united in saying that he must go all of the u.n. security council members shared their you including russia but many say the way nato has been accomplishing the goal of helping to doubt he went beyond the u.n. resolution from six months ago which authorized the military intervention and some say far beyond the resolution was designed to protect civilians but maybe this is the use of being told by an evil spirit during the six months that funneling those
10:18 am
weapons to leave in rebels there was also done in violation of the arms embargo imposed on b.b.'s the rebels are far from being a homogenous group there has been some internal fighting going on among the rebels themselves but many experts are saying the fight for being in charge of leave here is no surprising considering what's at stake and we're talking about a nation that has the richest oil reserves in africa well while there is still fighting going on in tripoli we know. rebels are already negotiating oil contracts with companies from countries that have helped help them get the off their back all for and controlled by the rebels said that there may be political issues working with russian chinese and grizzle young companies in this sector and so for some the battle in tripoli may be about ideals but it seems that many of them there are very much down to earth with their emissions to go into the conflict isn't even over yet
10:19 am
according to most people and yet the multinational corporations are already getting involved but you know the china just said today that it's it's very eager to get involved with every building the infrastructure of libya perhaps another another country they're looking to go to get a piece of the pie here off the cuff possibly the post office. in washington. moscow believes the conductor has no option but to resign and that a change of power in libya could pull the country out of crisis however it says the foreign interference in libya's internal affairs is unacceptable russia also hopes the takeover will put in place a legitimate power which will stick to its economic commitments towards moscow because that includes a trough the chairman of the state duma foreign affairs committee says even if the opposition wins infighting is just around the corner. of the international community is this community is not united it consists of different tribes ethnic
10:20 am
groups political forces which will start fighting each other i'm afraid there's. no the future government of libya heading had these foreign support will be there very grateful and. very helpful to these current is these group of need two countries for them to receive the future contours of war the rebuilding of the economy of libya their china nor russia they have no chance to hear of the same equal. treatment of the countless which have helped the opposition in libya to begin this week three . and they will be following the dramatic events in libya on air and online throughout the day so you can do stuff. under some other news now here on r.t. israel and the palestinians have reportedly agreed to restore
10:21 am
a fragile cease fire that's after sunday's attempt to cross border fighting around gaza that resulted in more rocket and asteroids art is put to sleep now has more details for us from tel aviv. the popular resistance committees has agreed to be called to this egyptian brokered truce between israel and hamas now the p.l.c. is significant because what it is a relative peace knowing how this three months it is the group that israel holds responsible for that initial cross border raid on thursday that killed eight hundred eighty citizens and that's fact this latest wave of violence what we are hearing from the p.r.c. itself until now it has not been prepared to be party to the mouth saying that it will be but these killings a lot of confusion over the cease fire it was signed last night it was and that's going to last night since then some fourteen rockets have been fired into israel now the problem that hamas has faced from the beginning is that it does not have control over palestinian factions operating in the gaza strip there is almost
10:22 am
a sense of enormousness there that we're now hearing from the palestinian official that hamas will be able to enforce the cease fire with similar militant groups it is radio really what many israelis will tell you is that it is in israel's interest at least now under the leadership of israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu to launch some kind of attack on gaza he's the right person to do it people here saying that is what has been preparing for such an attack for quite some time and of course there has been social protests at home criticizing the netanyahu government that would make it almost crazy and for him to distract attention away from them. with r.t. live from moscow now iran has started to move equipment used to enrich uranium for nuclear fuel to an underground bunker until two thousand and nine was a secret for a nuclear facility is carved into a mountain offering better protection from a possible attack iran's top nuclear storage and said that the some centrifuges have already been moved but the taking the time to observe what he called technical standards officials insist they inform the international atomic energy agency about
10:23 am
the move the first site mohammad marandi from tehran university says the transfer is partly to remove any temptation the u.s. may feel to attack so it's basically to protect the people who work there are the workers the scientists and ordinary people who are involved with the program and also to prevent the united states from making or the zionist regime for me a stupid decision to attack iran at this moment republicans highly popular among its own population if you look at polls carried out by americans in iran you'll see that the iranian election in the past have shown the romney public to be contrary to what western i mean here in western official right there saying like that. it is highly it is solid it is strong and it has popular support the problem really is that american allies in the region in the region are much weaker than before the united states is losing influence in the region already you operate on

the edges the news stories here on r.t. but do stay with us karim is now here at the business. thanks for joining me the russian currency continues to retreat after it saw a heavy sell off last week and certainty about the global economy is pushing investors toward safe havens peter weston from says that the ruble still housefull for weakness really the ruble is held hostage to what happens with the dollar and with all price and given that we feel it's going to get worse before it gets better i think we could have further weakening and that could be some other sort of accelerated by little creationists responding to it and shifting their current their savings into hard currency and plus that we could see continuation of capital flight but you know hopefully passing oktober we should have hopefully again called me a situation that might give some additional fuel to fuel who are promoted depression
