failure after launch the search is underway for the young man russian freighter that was taking supplies to the international space station back to earth in siberia. different priorities rebels in libya focus on a capture colonel gadhafi but western nations are rushing to get a slice of the country's oil pipe under the new government. and caught in the information war while the u.s. and e.u. are pushing for more sanctions against syria journalists on the ground see there's a lack of objective coverage coming out of the country.

am in the russian capital you're watching r t with marina joshua welcome to the program and first weather is hampering the search for the wreckage of an unmanned russian cargo space ship which crashed in the altai region in southern syria the soyuz rocket blasted off on wednesday and was ferrying food and fuel to the international space station but it fell back to down to earth well you now get the latest on this now on peter oliver peter so we're hearing of some difficulties with the search for this freier are emergency crews any closer to finding the wreckage well that's right the recovery process is being held at the moment due to some severe budget weather in the area of such southern side period where the progress much will went down now this is stopping them being fail to fly helicopters in there very frustrating for all those recovery workers they're going to be incredibly keen to do get this wreckage have a look at it get it back to the loved. and find out what went wrong now there have
12:02 am
been a state of emergency imposed in the area in the altai in southern siberia where they see the the bucket when down the snow being lifted it was put in as a precaution due to the modules carrying fuel as well as other things for the space station to make sure that none of those were toxic and none of those had landed in any areas near to the it's where humans are living but it must be said they don't know exactly where all of the parts of the rock would have come down this would be traveling at some phenomenal speeds when it broke into three parts spreading itself across probably a wide wide distance but as soon as this weather lifts they'll be very keen to get in there and very keen to add to to look at the couple was not so much about the progress module itself but at the rockets that was carrying it the soyuz rocket currently since the space shuttle program is being scrapped the so use rocket the only way of getting humans into space getting them up to the international space
12:03 am
station now this is a very highly respected piece of kit in the space program of the viking already spoken to astronauts the flow in on the shuttle flown on on the soyuz they refer to so uses a well somewhat like a tractor it's clunky it's it's it's a workhorse but it gets the job done now seeing this trash that we've seen them that happened on wednesday that will cause some worries to people who are looking at the future of space flight in the future getting people up and down from the international space station so as soon as that weather clears and a soon as they can get in they're going to be wanting to find out what exactly went wrong indeed peter well the question that i'd like to ask is the spacecraft was carrying supplies to crew members of the isis so how will that affect sound like implications will this have for now well that's right the i assessed stuff by six astronauts from russia the united states. good news for them is they did get
12:04 am
a months of supply boost from the shuttle when it was their last time they have food for three months to keep them going you've also got to remember they're all if not the majority of these people are all very highly military trained people they trained for situations where they'll have to live on rations so that's not really anything they'll be worrying too much one minor said but i could be if there were any scientific parts that they were waiting any plans for experiments they were hoping to to continue and keep on carrying out on all the if they were on board this progress freighter and they've been lost that could set but some of the research food and water isn't really a major concern for them right now we are hearing that they could get a you know the progress. up there with the same amount of supplies by september but until then it's just going to be slightly slightly uncomfortable for them but nothing that they haven't trained for before. right here thanks very much indeed
12:05 am
for bringing us the details while we are keeping an eye on the search mission there cure all over reporting from moscow the founder of the capital science connections innovation agency dr patrick fuller excess it's unlikely that the rockets could have cost any casualties a launch trajectory of all of these craft tends to pass over very sparsely populated regions or even over the ocean in the case of the u.s. launches so the risk is really very very remote indeed i think that's that's not something that we need to be overly worried about the provision of a new launch vehicle and a new launch. but something that's pretty expensive of course it's all in short or imagine it is in the case of the russian launches. because you know it's a pretty costly process i wouldn't like to put a figure on it but certainly tens of millions of dollars must be must not be that sort of assessment. the tattered fool like they're on the crash after

inviting the public face of the group from egypt will go to italy it's. closest european allies when the native bombing campaign began back in april the switch sides began causing the rebels in. the agenda to chipper as visit is expected to be discussions about italy's leakage of energy contracts in libya before the wall almost a third of its lease daily energy needs were imported from libya and oil giant any with the largest port operator in the country the oil and gas contracts running until two thousand and forty two thousand and forty seven because many here have been doing all they can to safeguard these contracts but the if they will be able to maintain these previously close business ties is by no means a given enterprise in libya the seats are likely extremely uncertain and there are little guarantees one of the biggest problems they italy and other western
12:09 am
countries since the beginning of the war has been a struggle to adequately understand internal workings of the rebels themselves. amongst the rebels there are many factions islamist tunisian people on card it's disorganized and counting and then chief of these groups of rebels are from a petition before were with gadhafi and then they completely changed their face they went with the wind is the same italy i think they're corrupt politicians. personally on a number of occasions three business connections less than a month vacation returned from a fact finding trip to libya with a handwritten letter she says was written by kids. in it he allegedly says he was surprised by your decision to join the coalition against libya especially after he signed the friendship and cooperation treaty between us he cites the cittie he's referring to he was fine just two months before the libyan uprising the
12:10 am
letter goes on why did you join our enemies without any diplomatic dialogue or investigation. seems to be making me friends but maybe the final chapter if. any conflict will continue. i would dare to say that the end of gadhafi opens up a new phase of the war which is among the rebels themselves there is no consensus both in italy and in general on the up and coming meeting on who the person. who will be the future reference points in the new libya i'm afraid this is because even the rebels themselves don't know and this is probably the biggest question mark of the transition. now it's silly along with many in the west could well find that previous lucrative relations latents just take the reins pull the friendship there the. fighting between the loyalist forces and the rebels continues to rage
12:11 am
leading to theories of a prolonged civil war the us government advisor on terrorism dr weil are says that colonel gadhafi could still amount of valor offensive and warns that the rebels have serious political issues ahead the khadafi supporters the remnant of his army cannot at this point in time strategically because they are surrounded and isolated cannot revert back to the entire conflict and take back but at the same time he has many supporters in his birthplace and many supporters in the south mr duffy has left the t.v. tripoli area to the south he was well in unleashing a new insurgency so his regime would go but he would become the new rebels and the current rebels now would become the new regime so we are still far away from a complete stable libya you have you know what kinds of mass destruction or nonconventional weapons that are across libya and that has to be said he wants or a lot of issues have to be addressed really before only focusing on qaddafi or even
12:12 am
thinking of the contracts the oil contracts to come if gadhafi would have left tripoli before that invasion on you know saturday sunday then most likely he will be in the shower or in areas where his supporters are still in control if he didn't leave tripoli at that day that he's somewhere inside tripoli hidden but that would be a negative thing for me for him because he would be found if he had left tripoli it's going to be very difficult for the rebels future government to find him in the desert. the wildlife of america's best known senators believes it's russia that could be next in line for a lady is style uprising former republican presidential candidate john mccain has lashed out of moscow saying the spirit of the arab spring is due to spread and could also reached china are she's got if she can has the details from washington. senator mccain has got a very far fetched outlook that's for sure he's sure that the so-called arab spring
12:13 am
will rage on and will make it to countries like china and russia which according to mccain need democracy just like libya does by the way at some point even said leader has already achieved a democracy which judging by the situation on the ground is really far from reality because even as the transitional national council takes over in tripoli that's not the government that was chosen by the leading people of many libyans are outraged by the fact that foreign powers of essentially made those choices for them and looking back at it egyptians who don't seem to have achieved what they were fighting for so as far as democracy is concerned in those countries there are still lots of questions but according to retain it's all great and the fire of uprising should move on to other countries first stop syria according to the senator right africa darkie he said it's a start next to fall but too many mccain's statements are not surprising really because he is seen as a mouthpiece to those forces in washington who have this hawkish mentality and
12:14 am
would want to see some countries go upside down especially rich nations or strategically important ones it's quite interesting that senator mccain is pointing at some of the world's richest countries russia that sitting on bass natural resources and china which is developing extremely rapidly it's america's biggest creditor it's the world's number one exporter of goods as we know the senator is basically calling for revolutions in those countries presuming that their livelihood is sold that they need to rebel immediately polls show that most americans are not happy with where their economy is going also they're not happy with their president is approval rating is below forty percent the nation's fourteen plus trillion dollar debt continues to rise the economy is not generating enough jobs and unemployment remains above nine percent as we know you know we're talking about millions of people jobless the rights of unions that were supposed to protect employees were slashed a lot of states have seen massive protests about. but their voices have been largely ignored following mccain's logic though does that mean that americans too
12:15 am
would have to take to the streets and rebel and revolt not clear really so i want to have to ask him that question because there's a lot of discontent in mccain's home credit for it but to senator mccain obviously you know hell is other people as one wise french writer is. reporting there from washington all the u.s. and some countries are calling for an arms embargo and wider sanctions to be imposed against syria following the crackdown there but russia and china are opposed to the plan with moscow see countries should be encouraging dialogue in syria not punishing it with reports from the country scares and hard to verify the way it's perceived from b. outside is decidedly one sided as. reports began to work in the morning this is how the world has been watching them dressed in syria through mobile phone cameras i want to footage from the wall street in the country has flooded

international news or rather blooded killings and executions supposedly at the hands of president arsons military coup and cell phones have become a trademark of the regime syrian officials though insists the scenes are staged the you tube is not credible and eye witness account is not credible become requests and shout tell their killing us next door. these are not credible ways to suss the situation the un has been downed over the violence against his people the damascus emphasizes from afar and so recently no u.n. mission has crossed the syrian border how as a correspondent with saudi a rather they are being international news channel on syria he says the government should claim itself for the country's image and the goodwill of the monarchy and the ban foreign journalists finding missions from coming in and they don't allow us to work can i just stick a camera in the filming even here in the mask and you should and i would never wait
12:17 am
till the government ministry will return a million reporters and the everyone has a phone why should they wait for the like an abscessed or information many people have used their cell phones to film what's been happening and to share it with the rest of the world. but this is what going against censorship is a double edged sword but mobile video can give anyone ever and perhaps help save lives it can just as well be used to transform the truth and that could come at the cost of people's lives. not his real name as the man behind the camera is a freelance journalist currently working for a western media outlet he cannot tell more and he doesn't want his face to appear on screen hiding the truth about himself it tries to reveal the truth of another kind. of. information about what's going on. there are some armed forces on the ground that are going to billions.

12:19 am
serious strongpoint because this is all we are all we are for the truth to come out the both sides of the story to be told not just one side all the time the fact that not as many foreign journalists are allowed in. the western world once does not give the right to the western world to grab any story. and put it as true but that there's a load to be among them it is gold and this conflict the press is not just about coverage it's a war and as in every war they go through we refuel. the moscow syria watching r.t. live from moscow remember if you've missed anything recovering here you can check it out on our web site which is r t v dot com and here's a taste of what else is online for you right in iran files a lawsuit against russia and the international court over its refusal to supply as

12:21 am
to begin to develop a peace process that could lead to demilitarisation and lowered tensions in the region so will they do it will the south koreans and the united states sit down it remains to be seen at this point i think not without the international pressure on the united states and south korea i don't think that will necessarily see if they are talking about a precondition wait you must stop production on a certain date before the talks not on the day of the talks those types of arguments seem to imply that someone doesn't want to speak because we have more than twenty eight thousand troops stationed in south korea and close to one hundred bases and posts in a tiny country is this really to defend against the growth no i would contend that it's relates to china and the desire by the united states to maintain its military presence in korea watching r.t.

a short response it's continuing to lose ground on expectations leave it will resume exports whether it sundra here from there to be capital believes russia's economy should be able to withstand a lower price. this time around compared to two thousand and eight russia is more immune to decline in oil prices and the key reason for this is a flexible ruble policy because what we've seen in the beginning of august when there is indeed downgraded the united states and the all the market sold off the ruble depreciate and the central bank allowed it to depreciate so the central bank protected local interest rates local banking sector by flexible exchange rate so we think that. continued fall in the ruble will take most of their most of the heat and we will be more protected from external negative external shocks. let's have
