heavy fighting continues in libya as a bloody civil war there's concern the country's chemical weapons could fall into the wrong hands. prancer struggles to balance the books stagnating growth surging dead bring about government cuts the fears and public outrage could soon spill out onto the streets. of the caucuses republican is electing a new leader in a vote triggered by the death of its president and. this is r.t. live from moscow right now i just after two pm here and twelve noon in libya the

u.n. has called for restraint in the water our country reports of abuses alleged summary killings by both rebels and gadhafi loyalists persecute the council has also agreed to release a one point five billion dollars in libyan assets to help deal with humanitarian needs the opposition continues to claim the tripoli is largely under its control while the national transitional council says it's moved from its stronghold of benghazi to the capital meanwhile the pentagon says it's monitoring and libyan sites contending stockpiles of chemical weapons is pledging to prevent them from falling into the wrong hands it's towards the arsenals include tons of mustard gas and a roth you raney and the saudis and the courts that's causing concern with some rebel factions are said to have been infiltrated by islamic extremists. tripoli i think see in chaos it's constant. aggressive and sell it. three

and on the outskirts of the capital stockpiles of chemical weapons you know very little about the people who might come to power. tripoli so now if you've got these caches of weapons of mass destruction then again people really don't know what's there and if this is fully going to the sounds of certain people i mean the situation is potentially disastrous despite the heavy presence of rebels in tripoli the chemical stockpile appears still to be in the hands of what's left of government that's both good and bad news following a series of meetings in two thousand and three moammar gadhafi agreed to allow weapons inspectors into libya the first step towards of bands of a w m d program in return for a normalizing of relations with the u.k. and u.s. he wouldn't use all move the material but now thanks in part to nato support of the rebels he's on the back foot and may feel he has nothing to lose by disregarding

that agreement he's cry victory or martyrdom will strike and. to those who know his weapons potential given the violations of. national territory of libya by nato led rebel forces i think that the idea that he would be beholden to these types of. remains would be off the table at this point and certainly he was quoted as saying you know early july that he would be willing to strike out in europe if tripoli was attacked so i think it's a fair assumption to say that if there is that capability that he would be looking at that option at this point and then you put the alternative rebel control of chemical weapons is arguably worse according to many some of the rebel factions have links to al qaida are a commentator abdel bari atwan says the west got itself into this trouble now it has to decide how it will figure it out and the options attractive we knew that.

you know the majority of the people who are fighting crypto if you are muslim extremists or how the people is going to deal with those people are often very noble of kind and i believe there. would be more proper my i think than that we could benefit there are some indications nato is considering putting peacekeeping troops on the ground in libya regional experts warn back could be seen by parts of the free libya movement as an act of aggression but having supported the rebel movement they too must now deal with the consequences even if that's w m d armed islamic extremists and its politics. and there are reports of heavy resistance by iraqi forces with the colonel's whereabouts still unknown. another radio message claiming he's fighting on the front line who was denied previous reports that it's assisting the rebels in the hunt to find him but journalist and broadcaster in new york clarke says the use of this information by all sides is

a whole mark of the conflict. what is very clear is happening here is the rebels are trying to signal to the international audience and trying to make out their complete control of the country is finished the war is basically over and everyone supports them the situation is rather more complex than that it's a very very divided society along tribal lines and if you doubt the regime which was secular gave managed to hold the country together for a long period and now we're going to see tribal warfare great and it's very clear. he still has lots of support within the west is of course that he has no support and that everybody is behind the opposition but it isn't true what nato has got here basically is transform a situation where there was demonstrations against the very into a full scale civil war and i don't hold the line that nato is needed really there anymore but western powers who. really want to get their funny back and they want to get money they want to this whole enterprise what about humanitarian

intervention that was entirely is all about talking. and installing a new regime we could hand out on trips to western companies and would be much more amenable to the americans. and so the money is going to go to western corporations it isn't going to go to libyan people. coming on a post. the richest sector of french society are pledging another three percent of their annual income to help the country battle its debt crisis the french prime minister announces some twelve billion a year out worth of cuts alongside gloomy forecast growth daniel bushell explains the move could be too little too late i fear social unrest could for. france enjoys a triple a credit rating for now put it one of the ploys victory shows among the world's top rated states many investors bitterly to follow the u.s.

in the country faces a number of challenges in the wake of its long fight for independence from georgia . and their publics capital circle. there's many people out today wanting to have a say in the future of the country here in the capital so whom the central election commission here in so whom in abkhazia has predicted a seventy percent turnout among three candidates for the moment there's no real leader between them is no real front runner this obvious just yet all of this is made necessary by the death of the previous president surrogate which on the twenty ninth of may he died suddenly leaving power vacuum in his place and now three candidates the vice president the prime minister and another former vice president are all campaigning to try and take his spot many international observers have come to try and look at this election to see if it's fair and how it's being conducted

from the region from europe and from further abroad and i was invited to. have. a very quick reaction from georgia who says oh no don't the yours or my impression is good or can exactly support what you're doing here you know because you're fighting for your syringe you're trying to be independent democracy so i appreciate the context of this country the knowledge of the people are fighting for the freedom this election comes on an important day for abkhazia as it was this day three years ago when russian president dmitri medvedev recognized independence from georgia the prime reason for that was the georgia had attacked south for setia that another tiny caucasus republic in august of two thousand and eight and it came on the back of that and fears that there may also be violence here and that ended a long struggle for independence for the people which started after the breakup of

the soviet union all that conflict though left a cause is infrastructure very damaged and very weak and its main industries are going to need a lot of building up and i think that's what our cars are really going to want from their next president. marty is somebody reporting right now emergency crews have so far failed to find the wreckage of the unmanned russian spacecraft that crashed on wednesday experts say parts of the progress vessel could have burned up in the atmosphere while falling down the spaceship it was carrying supplies to the international space station when a malfunction shortly after launch it crashed in southern siberia triggering fears its toxic fuel could be dangerous for locals and the environment so far there are no reports of any such damage investigators and experts are now looking into what could have caused the incident the government ordered a tougher control of space ships after the second rocket failed in russia in less than a week. so i got some other headlines now from around the world here on r.t. japan's prime minister has announced his resignation clearing the way for the

country's six premier in five years. has been under fire for his response to the massive earthquake and tsunami earlier this year and of course the radiation crisis that followed among the potential successors are the current foreign finance and trade ministers and you will face a number of challenges including rebuilding from the devastation and problems caused by the strong yen which is holding back at the moment recovery. a state of emergency has been declared in many parts of america's east coast where hurricane irene is beginning to make its presence felt now authorities in new york have ordered evacuations from low lying districts while in north carolina around two hundred thousand people have already fled but earlier in the week the hurricane battered the bahamas and the caribbean causing huge destruction as well as flooding and power cuts. an attack on a casino in northern mexico has left at least fifty three people dead and twelve injury armed men broke into

video. old girls. feet in the palm of your. cong. all right so now seventeen minutes past the hour here in moscow a. close up series it's where we explore the undiscovered parts of russia. and today we're in the killer of reach and it's famous for its natural beauty and stunning countryside and as we explore the region artie's ego out of no explains how the people there are taking matters into their own hands as they tackle local problems. they got what they asked for two slides a sandbank and it be charred might not seem like much but for small community

mccune of region they become a leisure hotspot that there used to be no one here it was abandoned now when the sun is out you can get at least. this type of project only cost five thousand dollars but it was no money and no local budget to build safe access to the lake and so the regional government introduced a local initiative scheme when they heard of it club together and applied for a grant from a special fund with the beach was laid. out for you the british people who were consulted over those very decision to build it and i think it's a result people look after this properly really the idea of micro projects was thought of jointly by the world bank and the cure of administration they provide about two thirds of the money while local citizens have to apply and the rest often go round houses they collect the cash nearly two hundred micro projects will be built in this region but end of the year. we want to change people's attitudes

instead of expecting things done for them we want them to take initiative we are giving power to the people. this might look like a women's institute meeting in a village hall in fact the participants part thrashing out the details of a new road there is heated debate about the quality of the works and what of the builders are falling behind. and like other projects the financing of the road is completely transparent we know where everyone has gone. the village of color cheeky has just over a thousand residents several hundred of them petty criminals serving time in a labor colony that has one poorly stuck shop and for every road it builds good terms more that need to be repaired. one micro project will not solve its problems but it is a start now the government can't just rely on its citizens to come up with a solution for every single infrastructural problem that faces russia but in a place for major decisions are often made with little consultation but

a foreseeable future this program is a good idea either and now. here a region. all right i want to stay with us here and i'll tell you the latest sports coming your way shortly be a first though it's a union with the business. following a very warm welcome time for the business program good to have you company in their hour is approaching for ben bernanke is to outline his vision of hard to say the u.s. from slipping back into recession the markets will be watching the federal reserve musing in jackson hole its in last and the last time they'll be looking for hints that the money printing press will once again this started how the two mccutcheon from gold believes the fat as if i did some

a nation and all it's got left out blanks. all of the money has already been printed there's already massive cash reserves both outside of the us on a corporate level as well as at the federal reserve bank. and their own balance sheet from they bought up all the mortgages and everything else back in two thousand and eight so no matter what they do they're really sort of a rock and a hard place if economic activity picks up in the us then velocity picks up money starts moving more and more and there's a lot more money than there was three years ago that's inflationary if the economic on me doesn't pick up and then to print more and more money to cover the budget deficit shortfalls which again is inflationary so they really don't have much choice the only thing they can do is raise rates but if they do that they're going to kill all the homeowners in the u.s. who are underwater on their mortgages so there's really not much more bernanke you can say frankly on friday than what's already been said. the markets are just big ben bernanke his decision let's have a look at. those figures well prices are down just by fears but i really could just

drop the final production on the east coast of the us. and offer a steep thirty six ounce selloff in the gold market the british special is once again a climbing on monday reached a record high of nine hundred dollars per ounce this was followed find three day correction so low is shutting up one percent this hour and a three day european stock rally ended on thursday much like it began with a sudden turn you know just a month of is continuing on friday with many investors sidelines ahead of that that statement and pretty similar picture here in russia markets. after seeing some gains in the first minutes of trading the archdiocese gaining going to four percent writes now have a look at some of the individual show moves on the mice it's fertilizer. for it almost tripled first profits meanwhile still make a m.m. cave down the company plans to thirty billion dollars net profit in the second quarter it will be here that's that's well below analysts at the stations and

another still may just have a start. is also down after posting a sixteen percent rise in second quarter profits it's also all but all forecast. to have been struggling to find any positive momentum andreeva. bank says investors should look to fundamental stories for a safer bet. it's better to stick with fundamental science and in order for the stores which are in any event cheap and provide much value which are actually quite a few russian market i would point out probably the one of the stores where they get separate is that it's despite all the things associated with the company it's very few companies with their real assets there i would say that was the problem of the sharp sell off during the last couple weeks and snow is being driven by the community. also the media stocks of the world looking at us media for example and then again i think there are a few universe you can write the really far and expensive story the question is

what the price of question was. the market for it so which are. again i would repeat predictable in russia where we as a portable will. universe. is dependent to it. and in other news russia's exports on oil will increase six dollars to four hundred forty four to almost a tonne in september and on thursday prime minister putin has also signed russia's new product exposures regime this is intended to increase investment in refining can't help avoid repetition of the fuel shortages seen earlier this year. not to patna some the world's top dollar menu maker who sold want to sell their stake to a third tycoon outside except in small. to russia gave better mystique to fix the bad and let not. a sixteen percent stake worth two point seven billion dollars to an assassin who sells meno knowledge to prosper has the right of first refusal

to buy the stake that's the bad outcomes provide of conflicts between. management at nickel and which are solos fifteen percent. russia's car market is in a state of rude health production has grown six to seven percent year on year and is on course to make around two million cars in twenty eleven however a lack of locally produced comp is deferring the full scale of the sector michael. it's always been about the oil russia's economy is linked to black gold as if by an umbilical cord it's no wonder the government wants to diversify one of the big hopes is the car industry but what stifling its growth is a deficit of locally produced parts this car has been completely assembled in the colunga region of russia however it has very few locally produced. are under the

new assembly line rules that the government is trying to implement this will have to change because the creases that eventually all cars made in russia will have to have at least sixty percent of the local produce compounds it effectively obliges companies to establish operations in russia from the ground up we're expecting sales train craze strongly in the medium term over the next five ten years and then of those cells respect in the percentage that are produced in russia to increase so as economy gets more of them and then the number of components locally produced in that production is going to increase significantly with the new decree and the focus on the voice ation the new rules of race concerns they may hamper investments in final assembly vehicle plants but for the most part reaction has been positive for the greens his words i mean i i think it's it's again i don't see him a lot of overtime as of improvement russia is still a long way from weaning itself of oil but analysts say the country could become

europe's largest car producer as barring any further hiccups in the global economy it has the potential to overtake germany as the big market in as little as three years michael could change the business r.t. . so all we have time for now europe today for stories slaughter website archly dot com slash presence.
