exactly help us now here in moscow top stories now this hour russia is running un security council members to demand an end to the violence in syria and prevent the uprising descending into another libyan scenario party is investigating who is really behind the bloodshed and how much is on. libyan rebels appointees to cross the last pockets of resistance from colonel gadhafi supporters with time running out for them honest to lay down arms. israelis are staged their biggest ever antigovernment protests against their will doing living standards of three hundred thousand people gathered nationwide to get the government to spend more on social

programs instead of settlements and the military. and ukraine is turning up the heat and is castro would moscow demanding a previously agreed price is a cost of refusing to make any concessions russia maintains the current contract complies with international requirements and cannot be reminded you know truly. one of the clock is ticking for colonel gadhafi to surrender to libya's interim government the national transitional council is now widely recognized as the country's legitimate power next british m.p. barry gardner who voted against western intervention gives his insight into the conflict. today i'm talking to barry garza who's a labor member of parliament and one of the very few m.p.'s to a very serious against the intervention in libya mr gardiner thanks for talking to r.t. today now we see that the rebels if we can still call them that have practically

taken tripoli and he looks like he's lost the fight have you changed your mind about the libyan intervention the point is the legitimacy of it and that's what i created in the beginning and i think most people would agree that it was right to intervene on humanitarian grounds to save the people of benghazi that was never the its you this it was all this whether nato should then become involved as effectively the strikeforce for the rebel courts and that's what it's been and that of course was in my view way beyond the brief that the united nations had given and it was wrong not that we should bring about regime change the civil war in libya is something for them it's not something for the rest of the world to intervene how do you wish it could have been different then what would you have done if you'd been in charge i think what we should have seen is we should have seen an intervention by the forces that went in to stop that attack on benghazi to neutralize

gadhafi and to make sure that he then did not conduct any aggressive sorties as he had previously been doing but not that they should then because the air on the strikeforce for the rebels david cameron said a few days ago that nato would lend support in libya for as long as civilians need protecting what was your reaction to that is that open ended commitment as it sounds. 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. force that would be totally wrong one of the things that troubled me all was this ambivalence as to whether there should be troops on the ground and of course that wasn't expressly prohibited by the resolution but it was something that i think all of us were very concerned about. what we saw as the

rebels were going into tripoli the other day certainly on the radio programs that were broadcast in the u.k. we would go left go left go left these instructions being yelled out by what were obviously british soldiers british personnel who were leading that advance group now that i think is where we've overstepped the line there's also now talk of peacekeeping forces on the ground in libya i see that something you were. decimated country with no structures for maintaining order and now is that not the only way i don't believe it is i don't believe it's right that we should be staying there effectively to establish the new regime that's that's not what this was really about it was about humanitarian protection let me be clear i am very pleased

to see the back of gadhafi this is a very evil dictator and the sooner he is in front of the international criminal court the better. and i'm very glad that his days are now at an end. i wish for the new regime well but i think it's important that they establish their regime that they prove to the international community that they have the capacity not to tear themselves into different factions and to libya as a strong unified government but that's their responsibility you supported the invasion of iraq back in two thousand and. three why is there a difference it's very different. the invasion of iraq was because. saddam hussein had refused to reveal as he was obliged to under chapter seven of the united nations resolution whether or not he had got rid of the nuclear chemical and

biological weapons that we knew he had previously embarked upon he refused to enter and even as late as every hans blix was saying we do not know whether he still has these he listed a whole load of v.x. nerve gas mustard gas different agents chemical agents so we didn't know and he was not willing to allow. other countries to come to interview the scientists to see the audit trails to know whether he got rid of them or not in that situation it would have been ludicrous to have had a million strong army that was on the doorstep of iraq simply go away when the resolution fourteen forty one had given iran given him a final opportunity to comply with its obligations how the world done that and what would have happened if he would have simply rebuilt those programs with impunity knowing that he was absolutely untouchable and the world would not do

anything against him we would have then been precipitated into a far more major conflict into the in the middle east between iran and iraq with devastating consequences destruction of the world's oil supplies it was a terrible situation and it was right that we took the action that we did not the fact that the united nations didn't sanction it in terms of a second resolution does not change the fact that forty and forty one said it was the final opportunity for him to comply now i'm a parent i have children i know that if i tell my children please come and do the washing up and they don't do it and i say look i've told. once already please cover two of pushing up if you have twelve units of that which is what we have with saddam hussein and you then come to the point where you say this is your final chance and he still does not comply then it's important that you take the ultimate sanction after that what about what happens afterwards there in both iraq and

afghanistan there are real violence began after the dictatorships were toppled do you see that happening in libya i think there is a danger of that and what you saw was certainly in iraq was a complete failure of the occupying powers and then to stabilize the situation and they let the the iraqi army keep their weapons but they disbanded the army and they said you must go back to your villages but you can keep your weapons this is insanity absolutely insanity and we must not be in a position where what we've done is created greater instability in libya that is absolutely clear. but nonetheless equally must avoid is becoming an occupation force i think afghanistan is a very good example russia has very little experience of the grandstand as as does britain of being an occupying power and you start off being a friend of someone and you end up being hated by everyone an occupying force is

a very dangerous place to be and you should get out as quickly as you can what's the middle way that some would argue that nato stepping in has made this situation worse is it not there nato has responsibility to stay and clear up and that you pose the question that really is how do you get to where you want to be and of course the answer is well i wouldn't have started from here but you're right we're now in this situation and therefore what we have to do is to ensure that we provide support for stability without our cells being that stabilizing. military force it must not be that the new government relies on the military of britain and nato in order to maintain power they must be able to do that on their own we can give advice we can give help to help them stabilize the situation we must not assume responsibility ourselves governments in fifty facts lessons were learned

from what happened in iraq but given the way that this conflict is being conducted do you believe that it's always a danger for every government if you and every army to be fighting the last war. what you do is you learn lessons from one conflict which you then take on to the next but usually what you forget is that the context of the situation is different the next time and therefore the lessons that you've learned from the previous experience may not be appropriate in the conflict that you are now fighting you mentioned a faction inside the national transitional council we now know that some of its factions are religious groups who hope to establish an islamic state in libya at what will the attitude to that b.d. think of nato and from the libyans themselves will they get a voice in this new democracy it's not for nato or for the else to allow that it's

for the people of libya to decide what they want to do it's for them to decide their own future. in this country and. all across the world people have had to learn to live. with the fact that we have different religious and different ethical values and nonetheless we have to live together we have to spine some means of sharing a society sharing the country and making it work for all of us i believe the people of libya are no less capable of doing that than the people of other. of the people of the united kingdom do you think that ultimately nature is it's a faction will cause more trouble in the middle east a region that is after all already deeply unstable so i think the most serious i think it will if if if nato stays there as an occupation force but i don't think that is going to happen i think the really troubling conflicts in the middle east

at the moment are within syria i think if you look at bahrain and the way in which saudi arabia went into bahrain to prop up the oligarchy there against the wishes of the people these are the flashpoints in the middle east that still have not something that is going to happen. once people have scented revolution once they have seen that freedom and a better life is possible i don't think they will go back to the yoke of the talk or see barry god no thank you very much. military nine hundred sixty six because it's the same say other things i was doing in this reason said we were given for doing them it was

a long way to go until they can even think of being able to compete on a level playing field with the likes of new zealand and australia however the presence of a russian rugby union the fact his country finally made it to the finals will help boost the profile of the sport you see his first time ever we want to fight for the rugby world cup is a great achievement for us in team for russian right because never before we think it's such an opportunity to play with their world's most famous and strongest teams because if you're going to be easier to play with or you know for sure and maybe some of these teams writing it is for the players for developing professional rugby it's a great experience russia play their first match of the tournament on september eighteenth against the united states of america. given they are in a group of italy australia. i'm going in again with the americans russian coaching staff will be targeting is be to become the first to be to us it'll be an imagineer

the overall they despite going to xing third there and so on his blue yamaha past the pole sitter and season leader on the first and held on to win ahead of compadres dani pedrosa who beat stella into third place and there were a heap is on the track so we want to finish with spain italy and spain is where also winners in the rest of the categories or the day they're also cut stone his advantage to thirty five once with five races still to go in when sea level the g.p.s. next stop is if our goal. and finally the most high profile professional athletes usually have a skilful agent to thank for their exposure and big money details the ice agent association vice president kennedy was shot off has been shedding some light on his profession it wasn't or scary part. huge contracts global brand indorsement and thousands of screaming fans the ice hockey all stars of the world really do have it all but describing phenomenally talented individuals they would

have a hard time making such an impact on the biggest stage without someone pulling the strings behind the scenes do not use shock or never expected to become a sports agent but now you've become one of russia's trailblazers in the business he manages such mega stars as you have getting moloch in and sergei go in charge so this is what you know i became an agent by accident i lost my job in one thousand nine hundred ninety and was struggling to make ends meet a friend of mine called me one day and said he got word from the new york rangers that's a sports agency is pursuing me i didn't jump the gun and let those guys pursue my service he's eventually the company's representatives met with me and i took up the chair all. shut off is well aware of the trials and tribulations of wine. and self that a twenty three year playing career in cold spartak moscow after that together without i've got some colleagues who never plays and they think i'm talking about

current is not necessary to do their job i tend to disagree as one must be able to evaluate and athletes current level of performance and his potential that's what ultimately determines a player's price and while managing malkin going char and other big names would be the top end fuselage presently no agent would want to miss a transcendent up and coming fallon ready to blossom star to push an artist as a business that i would say i represent between forty to fifty players in total are including those born in one thousand nine hundred four and one thousand nine hundred five let me go i tried to keep in touch with all my clients and go through their much is it possible that obviously there's a conflict of interest frequently because accounts tell oh my career's games are seen as high over. the competitive big money business to bring out the worst and sunny. so i'm going to surprise to steal the gaiman in the rough that others around . you shall call says the experience of those she'd known through his hand believes

a lack of sporting knowledge just driving his colleagues the underhanded tactics yes it can still kill senior one agent lee simply told me he would take players from me once his current crop of stars retired this practice is widespread in russia while the united states for instance has a code of conduct which limits such action if and i think he's already represented by one and no other agents can recruit him would he do it however it would shock off claims he knows a few american agents who find ways to cheat players out of their hard earned money so they may be just as you're just the workers just as never heard of asians taking money from players in russia but it's happened in the states before and i know the two hundred kostitsyn was a victim of such a scam and they also tried to trick alexander ovechkin and alexander i don't know since parents are the ones who often choose their child's ethan's from the future as they should be inquiries into every agent so some of the players themselves though are much tighter need to help each other out when the going gets tough

molecule among those benefiting from the smooth n.h.l. transition by teaming up with going shock posing the none of the pros here malkin had an easier time adjusting it was gone charm was already on the team max talbot's and sidney crosby were all sort of clients playing in pittsburgh at the time and now he moved into surgeries how use and stayed there for three and a half years so gone char was like a big brother to have been there for a while he paid the bills some sensible bank account among other things. with the senior favorite athlete on the list of the richest people in their school or the cover of a new magazine or endorsing a product is the result of a good agency work but those men like you shut off also clearly have the ability to become greeted by zus to decline allowing the players to blossom in their respective besides. bonzi gorski r.t. . and that's it for this hour more sports into all the sun come up next is the word out stay with us.
