international news live from moscow this is r.t. with me us of our thanks for joining us and we start in libya where family members of colonel gadhafi have fled the country to neighboring algeria this comes as rebels claim to have killed the colonel's youngest son morea finishing reports now from the capital as people struggle for stability following the recent rebel takeover. graffiti all around the city proclaims welcome to new tripoli the city has indeed changed appearance recently which used to be one of the most beautiful on the african it's rainy and coast now looks neglected and duty. with fighting still continuing in parts of the city and in the rebels and gadhafi is forces an army of another kind has taken to the streets. being here. we have forty one years like they have to still have this and now oh no you
1:02 am
clean all the. old laws in. with police no longer on the ground armed volunteers maintain order something that all new residents are very concerned about if there is a gun lease a new fire sooner or later i was the. only people. who. came to the biggest aquaduct in the world tripoli has been without trying water for more than a week already and you authorities claim is due to technical problems not because of the street fighting. that's not good weapons in the hands of youngsters and professional people some he calls himself live in middle class now the rhaetian are poor his family lives in the mood his house in the center of tripoli protest like every resident there struggling. this is hard i wish clothes like women were doing
1:03 am
fifty years ago with hands like this but this battle is nothing new comparing to what's behind them sunny says. it's still don't tell the. water. now for the fall but. at least we get. at least we have our freedom and baseball is seems to be shared by many here simple as they may not be the best place to live it's dangerous from both humanitarian and security point of view truth as a water medicine afford coupled with people with guns everywhere and no police but the residents of the libyan capital say they've been living without fresh air for forty two years of conduct his role so they get it back nothing else matters where it's not an hour to say probably libya. columnist for foreign policy in focus called harlem and says the nato operation in need there is an implementation of
1:04 am
bush era plans to gain control over africa the united states has for the past sixty years felt that if it is to have political or economic influence in a particular country or region it also has to have a military footprint and i think what people need to do is to see that this is the first nato operation in africa and this goes back to document the bush administration which called for the creation of an african command which has been done which calls for an invasion of an african country not using troops but the air power lately all of these things are done and they have to do eventually with control of resources and right now africa is up for grabs and human rights activist and matheny claims the un has already drafted the documents that would ensure its future presence. in some places this ten page martin

plan says things like we can do this without getting a new mandate from the security council i.e. we can move peacekeepers from missions that already exist and put them in there we can send military advisors there was what there's one line where they just say they don't say this is controversial at all this is the security council's protection of civilians mandate implemented by nato does not end with the fall of the gadhafi government and therefore nato would continue to have some responsibilities this is what i found surprising because that's a controversial statement that's a that's certainly the position of some countries but the idea that ban ki-moon would take it as his position without any equivocation is probably wrong. now and of course we're always eager to know your take on our top stories and today we're asking you how the situation in libya once thought with rebel forces having entered the country's capital. opinions are divided right now almost heart of you believe the rebels will be stuck in a slogan for years to come well just over thirty you think once they've got their full grip on power and oil that will cash in on the country's rich resources and
1:06 am
the rest of your split between two options whether the diplomats will take control of the situation from here or rubble forces will fight on until victory is claimed so log on to r.t. dot com to have your say. going on now russia has continued its calls for that syrian president bashar al assad to end the bloodshed and implement promised reforms this comes as human rights activists report at least six more people were killed as government forces continue their crackdown on protesters ati's arena who shows in syria for us and reports that the country's political violence is now pushing its religious harmony in danger. protests in syria start out with political slogans. but when violence breaks out people come to blows over issues of faith not politics. but more than four thousand years of history the mask like the rest of syria has been home to mother full faith for centuries but with an increasing political unrest many are starting to wonder whether this could upset the delicate
1:07 am
balance of religious tolerance in the country for now who there is enjoying the quiet comfort of her home like most christians in the country it's a life she's been used to since her childhood but i was growing up in a place with christians jews muslims and everyone got along just fine we still do actually but it's not like this everywhere more than seventy percent of syrian population are muslim and just like christians most muslims here belong to different branches of the religion take for example the president himself bashar al assad is a follower of the elwood branch or islam who are a minority among a predominantly sunni population so some of those dissatisfied with the current regime spread their animosity towards all brits if someone finds a problem with the government. some people believe this because of this belong to this strict and we have to struggle against instincts and this can be a bloody battle over them i don't know why my son was killed he was just working in
1:08 am
a shop and his killers knew that he was not politically active but he also knew he was an alawite and that must have been the reason for his murder so she violence is something that's new to syria where religious minorities have a special status largely because the country's leader is himself a member of such well. protected by law which allows us to live according to our customs since the brutal started a lot has changed and it's strange for us it must be coming from the outside and. whoever is rocking the boat of syria which is tolerance aren't reaching their goal just yet really attitude on the streets is still that of acceptance but if the political unrest worsens the lives of many religious minorities in syria could be at stake because the masters. political scientist dr nasser harshly says she doesn't believe the opposition movement in syria is a natural formation who is the opposition until now nobody knows really because
1:09 am
first of all the opposition i feel that it's actually was born outside the country . the president. has called for a dialogue and so far. feel has attended president assad will never step down if that will happen we're going to see a turmoil not only in syria we're going to see and all the surrounding countries lebanon jordan soon really cut out all the gulf areas everything it's going to turn upside down. the majority of the syrian population stands for there's no better alternative says london based investigative journalist simon. the idea of adding more sanctions to syria is completely counterproductive most of the series i've spoken to special have been in beirut recently and others are outside of sort of the middle east really even though they're very much part of the opposition are absolutely petrified that what sanctions will do would be to make everyone's life
1:10 am
harder and to really make make everyone just think about what they were going to how to get the next day whether they'll have a job and so on rather than say this is going to punish the regime for that i think will be very very counterproductive and has been rejected by i think quite a few of the syrians i have spoken to most would prefer a dialogue and i think this is very much the way a lot of them would like to go now whether bashar assad is capable really of doing this it is a different question but the idea that there should be that the time has come for there to be some kind of real negotiation with the regime is very much high on the agenda because you don't see most of them are petrified of the of the alternatives either nato getting involved having another libya type situation all the alternative which is that. the people involved in the movement becomes then so concerned about how they're going to live their everyday lives and the sanction regimes that the power of the movement is is is going away from them. and you can

advisors told us and that rift between e.u. nations and make it almost impossible to reach a meaningful solution to the crisis. this is a fascinating meeting because actually it demonstrates that within the e.u. itself there is a very very significant struggle and argument over what is the process by which the eurozone needs to be saved the difficulty is that a lot of the politicians and bureaucrats involved simply have been too slow to realize the extent of the problem because they managed to pin to put a crutch for the past five or six years they thought we could keep doing so we keep having these false agreements that signed wonderful everybody says the euro zone crisis is solved and there is within a matter of a few weeks we have a further crisis in another economy and we need more money very very fundamental argument going on within the european union the euro zone needs to come together with sensible moves because at the moment they've been throwing money at any
1:13 am
possible problems and all they're doing is all here for example for cracks in the edifice in the structure of the building and that just won't do what the french and the germans are appalled 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 french and the german government want to blame ignorant nasty speculators but actually the speculators are wrong the speculators are people who are looking after your and my conscience money and they see the euro zone as being in danger so there's a very big argument looming today. and across the atlantic economic recovery also needs much to be desired in a bid to change the disturbing trend of u.s. president barack obama has appointed a new economic advisor will have the difficult task of boosting economic growth and tightening high unemployment but u.s. economist radio host richard roth says the measures the american government is undertaking are insufficient for two to three years and president obama has been

rather than something which actually functioned not so long ago it's astonishing especially knowing that we were just around two hundred miles away from moscow. there's a hearty sygate travels around the country and explores deserted towns and villages he says he's used to seeing tumble down barns and abandoned houses even in these areas known for centuries for their greens harvests and i do not i think this is fertile land you can stick a pole in the soil here and it will have peppers growing on its one side and tomatoes on the other but it sure some agricultural facilities are still left in some areas but mostly the lands and abandoned. official figures show that over three thousand villages in russia became deserted last year alone many small schools and hospitals have shut down there's simply no one to educate or treat any
