markets. find out what's really happening to the global economy for a no holds barred look at the global financial headlines to cause a report on r g. nato says it plans to continue its presence in libya as people on the ground claim the latest threat to their safety now comes from weapons falling into inexperienced. two of the suicide bombers who carried out deadly attacks in the capital of russia's chechen republic have now been identified the blasts killed at least nine and injured over twenty. and as israel trains and reportedly the west bank settlers ahead of a u.n. vote on palestinian statehood experts warn it's the anticipation of violence that could ultimately ultimately struck a conflict. business crisis strikes and not a billion dollar deal with the world's biggest oil company just months after the
5:01 am
collapse of the tie up with the full business both of them on that story resonates . moscow this is our hearts here with me wrong welcome to the program nato says it has no immediate plans to end its operations in libya despite the rebels now controlling most of the country the lines is continuing to bomb the town of sirte that's the main program duffey stronghold which rebels have now given until saturday to surrender meanwhile tripoli remains under rebel control exactly as maria for national reports with almost every youngster in the country now carrying a gun it's far from safe. how much is a libyan rebel he got in politics and fighting against gadhafi soldiers and submission him a treat for me because shot coming from his moves out on that. i didn't even
5:02 am
notice until my friend told me that my foot was bleeding and pulled the trigger going to state he was still scary himself. one of the biggest stores was discovered at the top security prison in southern tripoli where inmates were released after nato bombed the area. of the country it was with arms it looks like live in teens have already developed a fascination for the weapons of war. are. when i go out and have a real life and will kill bad guys like in se in your stories you save of giving up weapons for mosques and well police are back on the streets the young gunman the street the ready to make more than we'll give it back to them as soon as they ask the system but many here are afraid that this addiction may have a painful ritual lygon has become one of the symbols of the libyan rebels and freedom for a new country though people want more peaceful symbols but fear of the lord be easy
5:03 am
for many to lay down their arms when the ground has played such a prominent role throughout libya's volatile history written off r.t. three pally libya and patrick for the online magazine it spiked believes the nato wants to stay because it has no clear vision of what actually lies ahead for libya . fundamentally with the transitional government that's been put in place what you have here is a government that's been cherry picked by the west these are people it's aren't elected spin also nice try and win a debate with the libyan people about why they're in any way more legitimate rulers thing gadhafi so i wouldn't say this is in any way a revolution if the west western government basically bombing a path. of a rag bag of rebels and filling the vacuum left by gadhafi isn't in any way what i would revolutionize but that's something that i think more fundamentally than that
5:04 am
there's been no sense from nato from western leaders what they were doing in the first place and they've not at any point had a case here in the sense of what the mission is and there's a lot of talk a lot of grandstanding over the last few days about this a job was done there was no mission creep with the exam there was no mission creep going on it was only because they didn't have any idea of what they were trying to achieve in the first place and it's no surprise that now gadhafi is gone they're still hanging around because they're still unsure it's still unclear they want to get some brownie points from this you know and have made some short term political gains the results but it's. still going to go on over front page magazine believes the fighting will go on even if colonel gadhafi is eventually captured. i think even if they do find it out here this is only a first stage of a multi-stage war in libya now the tribes are going to fight each other over the oil revenues origin as long as we're going to start fighting this. national transition council they already assassinated the head of the military i think
5:05 am
they're just the beginning of the problem this is really a tribal fight these tribes can be rented not bought this can go back and forth and who knows how long it will go on this is really a war about controlling libyan oil supplies they went to war against gadhafi because they thought they were going to be cut out of future exploration deals in favor of china and india so we had to be replaced now they'll tolerate a transnational council nato as long as they can get the contracts that they want it they're always billions and billions of dollars but if a transnational council starts creating a problem there will be more warfare to get rid of these people. we spoke to a british labor m.p. barry gardner who opposed the i like intervention in libya the full interview is available of course on our website he got caught up with another here's a quick preview. it was very clear in the original un resolution it was very clear when our prime minister spoke in parliament here that there would be no patient force that's one of the things that troubled me all
5:06 am
this was this week and reasonable as to whether there should be troops on the ground as the rebels were going into tripoli we would go left go left go left these instructions being yelled out by what obviously british soldiers british personnel who were leading that advance group now that i think is where we've overstepped the line. six minutes past the hour here in moscow you with r.t. the syrian army has once again been deployed to the city of hama in search of opposition activists last month the city was overrun by tank forces leaving dozens of people meanwhile amnesty international has accused syria of killing eighty eight people in prisons during the five month ongoing crisis activists claim the victims were imprisoned and tortured to death for taking part in antigovernment demos this comes after at least seven were killed during
5:07 am
a crackdown on the muslim holy of. the task what are we transform the conflict analysis center and things serious religious tensions will begin if the opposition eventually topples president assad. will. issue in science or. if you are. not is he she. is pinned against the sects in syria but. the position forces lose who you. would have been perfectly up to who would be who do you think is from the right people who will start into trouble because of the woods. yet clearly between religious conflict as long as everybody is you know what we are we are successful we will be here and we may see some. me time dr evil team shows
5:08 am
a professor at the university and i think the revolution in syria is fuel from the outside and ended igniting a civil war. i think that the nato alliance using some regional tools like turkey and the gulf cooperation council are working very hard to instigate instability in syria and this sort of instability will take a sectarian bent specifically they are working on agitating a civil war within syria and they want to call that evolution they can have they want to but the purpose of such a war is to bring syria down to its knees to destroy syria like they did with iraq and libya of course the point is to recreate this syrian regime in a way that is more favorable to the united states government the nato alliance and
5:09 am
the royal arab regimes from saudi arabia tomorrow i'll call. you with r.t. live from moscow still to come this hour france will blame game. that market really ball of tile. trust. me. while the e.u. policy makers accuse the markets of threatening the eurozone recovery experts point to think that the politicians are themselves and their indecision. plus the multi-billion dollar war chest wasted by the us we look at where the american taxpayers money allocated for iraq and afghanistan when we asked the experts of more bad news on the horizon. nine people have been confirmed dead after three suicide bombings in the capital of russia's southern republic of chechnya twenty have also been wounded in the blasts two of the terrorists have been
5:10 am
identified one of them being the brother of a suicide bomber who blew up in their publics capital last year but in a question about has more on this. the capital of the chechen republic grozny was headed by three blasts the first happened late in the evening on the road leading to the cedars and fought a suicide bomber blew himself up when police tried to stop him for an id half an hour later as this thing plays of the first blast of the second and the third attacks happened when investigators and emergency workers arrived at the scene this tactic one. blew himself up and therefore attract more people and then and attacks happened that's well known tactics for many terrorist crossed the world and we've seen that happening in iraq and afghanistan the leader of the chechen republic runs on could describe. behind this attack as criminals and he said that they have once again shown their true face as they have nothing secret with these
5:11 am
attacks happening on one of the most important muslim celebrations. right there one on our website oh we got plenty on how russian muslims mark the end of the month of ramadan have a look at this footage impressive stuff indeed i watch how thousands of words was gathered in the capitals of mosques are spilling out onto the surrounding streets in small planes we've got that footage in full r.t. dot com. all right just after ten past the hour here in the russian capital to global energy giants america's exxon mobile and russia's across in europe have struck a multi billion dollar partnership agreement for the corporation it will range all the way from the gulf of mexico to russia's vast arctic shelf
5:12 am
a sweeping deal signed in the presence of prime minister putin of the black sea resort of sochi gives the russian company unprecedented access to the u.s. and if you can't your. america's biggest oil company will participate in developing vast on top of all reserves in russia's arctic by this person and to the hopes of another giant britain's b.p. to be part of the project or the state secretary to the ministry of foreign affairs of norway which also has a big share in the arctic ice told us what role his country will play in the exploration of the territory. it will need some more energy and it must be taken from somebody's car tickets to one of the many. promising regions norway has its physical share of the arctic it feels to have a competence that is extremely valuable in other. regions and be seen that the russians are inviting not only or norway in good old sort of the countries in and we think companies are playing in. rows in different projects also. in
5:13 am
russia. and you can watch the full interview with the norway's state secretary to the ministry of foreign affairs our next hour here on r.t. and of course on more details of the deal between a lot of you have done exxon in our business section to stay with us to learn what the deal means for the entire energy sector that's in about ten minutes time from now. come september israel will be hoping for the best but preparing for the worst the military is training and also reportedly arming the west bank settlers as they expect violence on the un votes on recognizing the palestinian statehood next month but as artie's portfolio reports it's the action of the jewish state not the ballot that could lead to. the united nations might be meeting next month to declare a palestinian state but for more than half a million israeli settlers they couldn't care less there has been so many the
5:14 am
sessions they cleared in the un that have absolutely no meaning and are baseless un don't want that nobody's go home the palestinians say they'll be the ones now going home and like it or not nigeria and israeli settlers will soon find themselves citizens of palestine once the un recognizes palestine within these borders now there's no argument this is occupation international law apply for months now the israeli army has been fine tuning its response to the un vote. about a lot of equipment in order to have an. answer and also training a lot of members of the one hundred million dollars and the separation the army is also training sick lives in self-defense the what he assumption of his ready defense establishment is that come september they will be confrontations between
5:15 am
israelis and palestinians they fear that they will be martyrs protests and in some cases even violence but it's an assumption and many would say overreaction that threatens to inflame the situation on the ground israel has been doing everything it cared to do. this whole idea of abode and it's not only the palestinians it's shortchanging this here. is through spreading also on their own population if it was not justified because at the end of the what the palestinians are doing the political step in trying to achieve with shipping with the through politics and i think this is far better. to try to achieve it in math and terror or a war and the irony is that the army might just be focusing its resources. wrong relation you think that we are going to leave the country really the biggest danger though is that as these we defense forces prepare for conflict people on both sides
5:16 am
of the border begin to expect one policy r.t. tel aviv so i heard it's time for you to get involved with a program here in r.t. you get to know what you think about our top story today we are asking you why israel is arming its citizens check about how you voted in the moment opinions a bit divided the majority believe it's done to provoke an armed conflict and thus torpedo the un vote on a palestinian statehood almost one fifth think israel is just protecting its citizens thirteen percent say the aim is to distract the israelis from the country's economic woes and a minority considers the israeli government to be overcautious log on to r.t. dot com make sure you get the chance to have your say. the e.u. is concerned the uncertainty in the global financial markets is threatening europe's economic recovery and your leaders and are trying to implement a crisis measures that were agreed upon just last month including a second greek but with
5:17 am
a deal not yet find most markets are wary of what politicians are doing this according to italian business journalist francisco six. in europe the main point is the politics and markets. really the size of political leadership and he'll draw saw coming in step seen with some political real strong measures so. i'm afraid it will be still in europe has not come to grips with nor solution for both the great prizes but i would say also for the european crisis in fact the telly and spain are also in dangers and these are bigger economy importers for much bigger risk and dangerous to the euro area. and i with financial issues no easy across the ocean people discuss ways out of the ongoing war talk is coming away in about two
5:18 am
hours time here on r.t. from our here's a quick look at what's in store. the problem in our economy isn't the lack of liquidity in the world's awash in liquidity it just doesn't know where to go japan's long term prospects for care of all european welfare states are collapsing and of course that big government policies of bush and obama have made the united states very unattractive so i really think the fed is completely out of the picture all they can do is make things worse by giving us i guess nine hundred seventy style stagflation the problem is the banks themselves weren't terribly intelligent so they took the free money they made a great deal of profit out of it and then lo and behold they decided that they'd pay huge bonuses to lots of traders because these traders they regarded as being superman and that was very unfortunate because ultimately if you give me money for nothing it's very very easy to make a profit from it and that's all quantitative easing has achieved for all of us.
5:19 am
if you want. twenty minutes past the hour now here in moscow the u.s. senate committee on water time contracting has found that thirty billion dollars of taxpayers' money is missing or has been stolen by contractors working in iraq and afghanistan over the past decade a report claims the money was squandered due to poor planning a lack of oversight and outright fraud by u.s. contractors and federal employees the findings will be presented to congress as washington propose to cut defense spending to tackle america's enormous debt the contents of the report won't be a complete surprise paul cost control of reconstruction in afghanistan already confirmed last over and the former bush administration official michael o'brien
5:20 am
says more money will be supported for many years to come. thirty more billion could be wasted because things have been built that won't be able to maintain they won't they can't maintain them in countries like iraq and afghanistan you have to when you build something like a power plant you have to be able to maintain and operate it and the afghanis simply don't have the ability to do that i predict anyway american firms will have to go over there and they will have to stay there operate these power plants. and if the government of afghanistan if if karzai says no no contractors will take care of it we'll end up paying afghanis engineers an operators to maintain these things and i feel safe in saying that money will disappear. an assistant at a i think it was dot com told us that this report is important but that hope that it can actually change the situation
5:21 am
a dying fast. the recommendations within the report sort of have the air of the usual washington type of device build another bureaucracy to watch over and for oversight in this department you know hire an inspector general sort and so forth i'm concerned that the recommendations of this committee all of their analysis of waste is very valuable and concerned with their recommendations won't even take place or if they do they'll be wasteful still. before we get the career with the business and our time for the world up here on arts he he has launched a special operation in the north of course of the union says it's in relation to a criminal investigation into the death of a policeman in clashes last month a violent dispute erupted when the regions of dorothy's try to take control of two border crossing points on tuesday the un called the situation in kosovo tense and unpredictable. a car bomb has exploded in pakistan killing at least ten police said

how about a business he. has struck a billion dollar deal with the world's biggest oil company x. in a multiple discount his latest. more details office agreements are turning up for instance exxon mobil will take on most of the expenses on the first stages of the project when it comes to the exploration and development of the oil fields on russia's arctic shelf its plans about three point two billion u.s. dollars will be directly invested into all exploration alone there although according to russia's prime minister vladimir putin of his present at the signing of this strategic cooperation agreement the amount of direct investment into this project could become over one hundred times bigger in the future no more well will also get to take war in the development of all deposits in western siberia and on the black sea going to russia's vice premier eager to see the black sea project
