rosser recognizes libya's transitional council as the functioning libyan all foresee in his state with russia as part of that is emphasized moscow has a long called for good actors who go over it says nature's approach to bringing down violates into not illegal. for syria it is fortune in media and it's losing it with all the it's all foreign press from the country every dollar you going by the dollars grow the authenticity of books with syria. and russia remembers the victims of the beslan schools the that shook the country and the whole world seven years ago even a good three hundred people dead most of them children.

very warm welcome to see this is live from moscow russia has recognized libya's national transitional council as the legitimate governing authority of libya speaking shortly after the announcement russian foreign minister sergei lavrov said russia has never wanted to get out the to stay but it poses major use methods to remove you get it was going on. moscow has recognized the national transitional council as the sole legitimate power in libya and according to russia's foreign minister says the very beginning of the conflict russia has been stressing that it's up to the libyan people to decide in which direction they want to see their country moving in and who should be our of but it's the masses with which these deem forced from power which are raising

a lot of questions here in moscow and i've seen it going you know that russia has never approved of the film a libyan regime back in may have clearly stated that get back to should go the way the united nations resolutions were implemented by some nato members and other states and that the principle of the supremacy of law was disregarded the african union and u.n. initiatives renewed leading to an increase in civilian casualties however it was the protection of the civilian population that was set as the major objective of the security council resolutions implemented by nato. we absolutely sure that justice cannot be done using a movie set up with just to remind you during the un security council vote on the resolution russia abstained sasa de facto letting the north resolution be passed but since then various russian officials have been accusing the alliance of

misinterpreting the resolution of acting far beyond its legal mandate for example russia's envoy to me told me that i was and has been saying that nato has been abusing the resolution in its own interests. now libya consulate for comprised of sixty countries calling themselves friends of libya are gathering in paris to discuss the future post iraqi or russian representative is attending the meeting. and find out more now and talk. down a bushel he's in brussels for us because that's exactly what's going to be happening in paris later today. first chance really for many around the world to see libya's new leadership russia is attending this meeting as are many countries around the world not just those who participated in nato bombing of libya a key issue on the table will be unfreezing of gadhafi money held which is

belonging to libya held by various states that will be over and freezing that money and giving it over to the rebel leadership the rebel leadership to distribute now russia is very concerned it's very worried that that money is spent correctly i think it wants to make sure that. people are not for other pain and there's also concern here about the language being used by various western leaders to work to justify this meeting talk of creating a roadmap for libya of oil being helping its development now russia's representative to libya is a model of and he says it's very important the libyan people are the ones who destroyed the future of their own country. i mean the final decision on what libya is going to become ease one for the libyan people to make it's not the world's politicians who've been playing leading parts recently but national democratic

votes will determine this and it should be well prepared and julie carried out this is where the international community and russia in particular is eager to render active support to the libyan. i don't know as a lover was saying we just heard earlier that intervention was justified in protecting civilians but all that all the incentives perhaps that right here. there's a deal have been reported for for us to get a third of libya's in toy reserves now libya has africa's biggest reserves of oil and that will come as a big embarrassment for french press. sarkozy has always insisted that the country's going in and bombing libya was to protect its citizens that could explain why french oil companies accompanied the very first french delegations to rebel held in goes the back in march companies like told the french oil giants now britain the other big e.u. power participating in the bombardment of libya has not even sent

a trade mission yet to the country but joint any this week has signed its own deal with the national transitional council to restart oil production in libya as well as reopening a major pipeline gas pipeline running from libya to the mediterranean and it's only occasionally. live from brussels for us to get off we have just learned he has given else phil interviewing you can watch us in just over twenty minutes time here on. marco island international relations acts that hold that some of the states are the friends of libya have a more privileged role in the countries in the not. one of the issues we see at this meeting is really how. business to all the countries that are interested in it all of their sources of trading with and how far there will be

a privilege group who have in a sense. created the new regime because without the support of nato. very clearly would have crushed his opposition. with the new regime so they continue to support those residual forces who still support. or at least. more news and analysis coming out this hour here on r.c.m. there's something in the air and your old or a minus skates in our royal way can take up the air kilometers around also. make its halls the next crew to be in some sort of space station take its final exams have a normal despite the recent blockage. the crackdown on protesters is reportedly continuing in syria but with most foreign media expelled from the country and the correspondents who remain under tight

control a true picture of the situation is hard to establish that any one of the few foreign journalists reporting from this troubled country. mass murder tearing catastrophe a country on the brink of a revolution this is what you see every time syria pops up in the headlines but what is really happening in a country where hardly any foreign journalists are present there's even been the implication that some of the images we're being shown have been digitally manipulated and there have been reports of available online that you can watch of of footage that was taken in bahrain and said to be taken in hama and it's showing the same footage and on different stations with different backgrounds digitally drugged and so there are some very strange things that are going on right now an example of such manipulation is the case of palestinian refugees in the coastal city of latakia the stadium in the dark it became the center of the controversy when according to various reports anywhere from several hundred to several thousand people were gathered here most of those people were palestinian refugees who came

from the palestinian refugee camp in the sunni quarter of latakia now according to the opposition forces and to some of the palestinians when they got to the stadium their i.d.'s were taken away their cell phones were also taken away and they're really prepared for the worst because you have to realize that herding large numbers of people into stadiums carries them with other very macabre macabre association especially in this particular region so the uncle saying has developed sort of a practice of hurting people in stadiums and then and then committing mass executions we went to the part of the city which supposedly came under fire from warplanes a navy ships in support for the refugees to find out what happened. some people walking around the neighborhood yelling there will be shelling from city soon everyone has to get out i didn't go anywhere just stayed in my house i can see the bay from my window and there was nothing in there aside from the usual patrol boats

still got a fire did break out between the army and unknown gunmen so some five thousand palestinians left their homes hearing for their lives. we wanted to leave so that our kids wouldn't hear the gunshots we hear in our house and when there was a break in the fighting we went to the stadium we stayed there for three days then came back to london so did two thousand refugees only to realise there was no air and navy attack taking place on the city lot of ology and we felt like we were lined. up to our just syrian authorities have long been insisting rogue armed groups are behind the unrest in syria and it's them who started shooting first during demonstrations prompting bloodshed those statements are all but ignored by the media. or more syria is fighting a media war and it's losing it over. the syrian government might have realized its mistake of banishing foreign journalists from the country and media law has

overturned that ban but there is no guarantee it will go a long way towards changing series image as portrayed on major networks in those courtsey syria. and continues to follow events in syria and you can get hell latest reports on all the fall and the latest messages she reports that she's hearing rumors several newborn babies have died in the city of hama which is supposedly created by government forces that follow us ads all see on the score card. if. you.

have it in the us down a path shot or can't shout we should be. leading the world with this upbeat rhetoric has called for investment to boost the stagnant economy and create new jobs the federal reserve is expected to come out with a new set of measures in september to try and do just that political commentator who wrote the fed's measures fall short of helping out bridge americans. take a hammer and hit them in the head is what we're still in a recession and there's not been a recovery and one of the reasons is because what the government is doing what the federal reserve is doing to hold on interest rates so low to benefit the federal government to benefit places like goldman sachs and j.p. morgan and just like europe is being raked over the coals to the benefit of the big banks so are americans so the average joe the average reality is being harmed to

the benefit of the power elite so what is quantitative easing if it's money and they print this money and it has a horrendous effect on the economy and we're already starting to see prices increase notice clothing food many other areas prices are going up enough already we stand to face really a hyperinflation worse than what happened in the one nine hundred seventy i don't think they're going to put us in the zimbabwe care of a category but you know we can't we really can't know bernanke is like a mad printer and he's doing it again for wall street for the big banks for the government and to the detriment of the american people and really the people of the whole world this is a criminal act but their conduct. being in the year is a. straight jacket so says the czech president vaclav klaus a member of the czech republic its national. i the president blames the right for the debt crisis that's currently ravaging his commons grow because you seem to

think the cards within the union and it's a prime minister has questioned the obligation to join the e.u. or is a country faces on the membership rules saying they were told it was. not a jets union leadership maintains the crisis is temporary you say i see hear something that only bell. the trends magazine disappoints. the president is probably more right than the european politicians because. we at the moment have a monetary union here in europe that has really very important structural handicaps and. handicaps we have and i would situation that there's been a full blown crisis that is threatening. the further existence of the euro zone everything is done at the moment to indeed arrive at such a situation where it would be rather shameful to accept the exit of the

country the first possibility of course being greece but that should not lead us astray in terms of what is the real full were truly real focus of the discussion and that is that you don't have the conditions to have a structurally healthy monetary union and unless we do something about that we will have one crisis country after another there is so much political capital invested in this project that it's very hard if not to say impossible for the politicians who are at the moment running the european council to give give up on the idea of a monetary union. and european banks are in big danger that's coming from the world's top bankers what are these financial experts kinds are in states you have in the kaiser reporting just a barrier is time. the guard urges recapitalization of europe's banks so this is christine legarde head of the i.m.f.

one of the arguments that she poses for how european banks can recapitalize is to borrow from this new four hundred forty billion euro european stabilization fund so more debt. the new euro stabilization fund starts off in that it's bankrupt from day one so her idea is to borrow from this bankrupt institution which only means that the debt to equity ratio for the global banking system is to be expanded but look are talking about is to expand the debt equity card there's no other solution that you could possibly come up with because she's just an academic neil liberal wonk whose only purpose in life is to theoretically come up with new ways to expand the debt burden her solutions are absolutely and the fema to something that would be beneficial to anyone except that peddler's of whom she represents.
