what's really happening to the global economy with much stronger or no holds barred look at the global financial headlines. as reported in our. top stories on our t.v. water and food shortages bring libya to the brink of a humanitarian crisis as the opposition again says it will last negotiate with the fugitive colonel gadhafi. enough is enough and also says watch out into syria us and immediately and the opposition not to stray for political dialogue if it's truly believes in a peaceful state. talking to officials once again defend the last efforts and say we'll be here over the dead contagion sweeping the continent even as they warn of the euro zone is already dismal economic growth is likely to slow even further.
1:01 pm
it's just after nine pm here in the russian capital you're watching r.t. now to our top story efforts are underway in libya to try to restore water and electricity supplies in tripoli rebel leaders have asked nato countries to protect the teams trying to repair basic services well they've also once again rejected the possibility of holding talks with moammar gadhafi archy's many if at all should i isn't the capital or a humanitarian crisis is unfolding. what we're hearing here in tripoli from the rebels makes their position absolutely clear there will no be any negotiations with gadhafi and all they can provide him they say is safety and fair trial the rebels information minister. has said that if even if gadhafi personally called him and asks me to go she says he will not never talk to him he has added that are the rebels are not negotiating with the criminals and with the killers and reason not talks but as i had called in battle colonel gadhafi is government spokesperson who
1:02 pm
say blue green has sent a message to the rebels about his readiness to hold talks with the rubbles on forming. a government this statement comes just a week after the rebels assault on the libyan capital tripoli as a result they are virtually controlling most of the city they are actually right now controlling most of the country as well as the situation here in tripoli i would describe this situation as humanitarian disaster the tripoli council has said that from sixty to seventy percent of all residents of the libyan capital don't have enough water and electricity due to technical problems they say emphasizing that it's not related to fight scenes on the streets the sixteen faces severe shortages of food and medicine as well and electricity even here in corinthia hotel where we are steyn and where most of the foreign journalists are staying
1:03 pm
there is no water per day water free day here in this in this region is very complicated and people are struggling. a doctor or sign back in berlin based middle east expert says it will be a challenge for the transitional government to restore peace in a country where many carry guns. to do the job right now they have been assisted by nato imo so i've been very critical right from the. nato. supporting the rebels but now the situation is as it is. now the there is a challenge for the libyan transitional council for the people themselves and i think that nato should be as we elect reluctant as possible toward interfere once more like the libyans themselves is their security let themselves go their way politically so i think the next step should be to really find out where gadhafi is and then really try to stop the fighting but this may be may turn out to be quite
1:04 pm
difficult as practically everybody has has an army has an arm has a gun and so this will be a very critical measure taken by the government and then of course next steps have to follow the political steps getting some sort of legitimacy for the transitional council. the u.k. has gone beyond at the u.n. resolution on libya says british m.p. very gardiner he's from the opposition labor party and voted against the intervention you can wash your full interview next hour but here is a preview. it was very clear in the original un resolution it was very clear our prime minister spoke in parliament here that there would be no occupation force one of the things that troubled me all was being unreasonable as to whether there should be troops on the ground as the rebels were going into tripoli we heard go let go let go left these instructions
1:05 pm
being yelled up by obviously british soldiers british personnel who were leading battle advance group now that i think is where we've overstepped the line. oh you're vouching r.t.m. there's plenty ahead for you this hour including surviving on a scraps all u.s. carmakers who once received the bailouts and are now reaping the rewards for locals of detroit are forced to deal in a scrap just to make ends meet. and a real out of this world experience a russian built orbital hotel is due to be put in space of just five years for those with cash to splash on a perfect. but russia has once again called on the conflicting sides in a syria to end the bloodshed and move from the battlefield to the negotiating table and also urged countries opposition to yield to
1:06 pm
a peaceful solution as it says this is the only way that will lead to a democratic reforms and comes as russia's deputy foreign minister has been meeting the syrian leadership are visiting a solution has more. russia is calling on the syrian government for an immediate implementation of all promised reforms and forces stationed off because still it is between all conflicting parties that is the government and the opposition forces in the country that was the message from the kremlin which was relayed to the syrian government by russia's deputy foreign minister bugs out of who is in the syrian capital damascus now russia has had a special stance on syria ever since the beginning of the unrest in the country the proposed u.n. draft resolution which will seek to implement very stringent sanctions against syria is something that russia does not agree with in fact moscow has come up with its all in a resolution on syria which does not seek to put any harsh sanctions into place by the does call an immediate implementation of all reforms among other things that
1:07 pm
russia has also encouraged the opposition leaders to enter a dialogue with the government something which the opposition leaders until now have been refusing to do but say the government has been delivering word police trying to delivering some of its promises like for example the implementation of freedom of speech just on sunday a new law has been passed in syria which does allow for foreign journalists to come into the country in order to report what is going on on the ground here and that has not been done and up until now and because of that a lot of reports which happened coming from syria have been somewhat confusing and the r.t. crew has gone into one of these one of the talons which has seen at some of the largest confrontations between the government and the opposition forces in order to see what is actually happening there and we've brought back this report let's look at the reasons special significance for syria and for the president bashar lassoed his father is from a village near the city in which the population is predominantly just like the rest
1:08 pm
of the province the process began here in march of this year this is one of the main buildings this is one of the main squares in the city of latakia the syria itself headquarters located on the right in the middle of this syria tell us a company. the telephone company which was owned by one of the cousins of the president and the protestors expressed their hatred towards the regime by looting the place and then burning it violence returned to the top yet again just a couple of weeks ago claiming more than thirty lives and the government protests broke out in the sunni part of the city officials said they were battling with armed groups which they say have infiltrated the area now what's the story here the story goes according to the protesters according to the opposition answer majority of the midwestern media sources is that there were a warship stationed right here in this bay and they were selling this sunny part of the town which is all along the coastline right over there and the middle of that part of the town is the palestinian camp but you have to keep in mind that
1:09 pm
according to the u.s. administration who were obviously monitoring the situation there were no warships stationed in this bay on the seventeenth of august or earlier on the surface it seems to be life as usual but once you take a closer look signs of unrest come through so we got to the sunni part of the town and there are no signs of any fire coming from the side of the seat where supposedly ships were there differently signs of battle you can see by the bullet holes in the walls in the. story provoking they are forces so they were. some buildings were damaged significantly some people unwilling to speak on camera gave us views critical of the assad regime saying the government is to blame for failing to deliver on our of month old promises of reforms this they say force that people are storing up protests the reluctance of people to be interviewed may not be surprising given that we were accompanied by unarmed
1:10 pm
military escorts throughout our trip from our talk in syria if i was to go party. as moscow keep searching president assad to enflame at his promised reforms we spoke to the country's ambassador to the u.n. to the thought of sure again and he says russia's western partners are too keen on russia for an exclusive rate of the syrian problem and. lead to truth i think the logic of a gauge no borger finding a political accommodation rather than the logic of an old polish member and got engine strife in syria would show that you know you would be to me the whole log onto the free video section of our website to watch his interview in full. mission free printing free storage and free. range and free. free. tuition free. and free volunteer live video for your media project and

1:12 pm
eurozone needs to be saved the difficulty is that a lot of the politicians own bureaucrats involved simply have been too slow to realize the extent of the problem because they managed to pin to put the cracks for the past five or six years they thought they could keep doing so if you coing these false agreements that signed wonderful everybody says the euro zone crisis is solved and there's within a marker of a few weeks we have a further crisis in another economy and week more money so there's a very very fundamental argument going on within the european union the euro zone needs to come together with sensible lose because at the moment they've been throwing money at any possible problems and all they're doing is all here all for cracks in the edifice in the structure of the building and that just won't do you know the french and the germans are up hold by this whole situation because they want to try and get together a kind of fuzzy warm solution to what goes on but it's just not realistic the
