my colleague have an hour and. jaroslava locomotive was a favorite it was a three time champion of the k h l so a very tragic night for this city and for the country and for hockey in general people who saw the plane why witnesses of the account say that they witnessed a plane going up a yak forty two and not making enough. speed or lift to get off the ground high enough then it clipped became and went downhill a ball of flames we had the opportunity to speak to some people who witnessed this in person and this is what they had to say about the accident operative's name on the poster someone at the office of the plane. like to come in. several seconds later we had another bang up in the plane started leaning to the right after we heard the second the plane suddenly dived and hit the ground i didn't see it hit the ground but we saw that it's tell you. the plane broke in too soon as you look

at we heard the plane takeoff so we told our granddaughter look there's going to be an airplane then i heard a bang and my daughter told me mom it's falling down to the side then came the flames and the smoke and we wanted to run away but we didn't know where to run then we went to the river and saw the plane which was. you know it's not is my home team we supported in so you will have this team who was shocked when we found out she went to all of the games knew all of them by name and it's very difficult to leave here and on a personal note we were on the train and as the news of this tragedy started to spread through the train and people who were on their way to jaroslava started hearing the news you could see how personally it touched people who are from the area one lady sitting next to us burst out into tears and told us that one of her family members actually had the final meal with the team before they headed off to the airport and said that they were all in great spirits and ready to go for their first game of the season and of course this ended in tragedy. a heartbreak for

everyone here a national team goalkeeper among the survivors what more can you tell us about alexander gurley most he is the only survivor of the thirty seven team members coaches and crew that were on this flight there was one other survivor who was a member of the crew as well but as you mentioned burns over ninety percent of his body including his a respiratory system as well doctors at this hospital here in jaroslav all have said that he has already begun on undergone multiple surgeries including surgeries to help repair his damaged respiratory system so hard fight ahead and anyone who is familiar with burns over a certain percentage of your body the survival rate is not very good so tough times ahead for the family and also for alexander as well and best to get his are going to be next on the same trying to find out what went so terribly wrong well indeed in fact actually if you look at the i forty two itself and we can talk about that

more a bit the plane has been around since one thousand nine hundred five it was the first plane that was designed by the soviet union to uphold to international standards we don't know how well this particularly plane was serviced but it was a private charter jet but again they are looking at possibly human error in terms of the pilot making a wrong decision that led to the tragedy also there are some early indications in the investigation that there could be some technical malfunctions as well and of course. putin the prime minister ordered the transportation minister to come immediately to the scene to launch an investigation as always is the case and when something like this happens in russia there's always a quick response to make sure that they get down to the bottom to find out exactly what went wrong that investigation is ongoing right now people on the scene in fact you can actually still smell some of the burning in the air so it's very shortly after the incident but again what we do know is that the plane failed to get enough

altitude. did some sort of a beacon or an antenna at the end of the runway and went into a ball of flames so right now they're going to be poring over that scene over the next few days to make sure that they know exactly what went wrong very hard isn't it to describe how much of a shock this is for you there on the scene we saw hundreds upon hundreds of fellow citizens and euros level pouring out onto the streets going way. certainly in fact hundreds of people coming out to pay their respects chanting team slogans for lokomotiv but this isn't just a tragedy for jaroslav ill it's an international tragedy as well there were members on this team from sweden ukraine czech republic bello reuss of course russia canada as well so it was an international event and not just for sports and hockey in general but there are and passengers and embassies that are sending their regrets as well president get out tomorrow is changing his schedule at the international forum so that he can come and actually pay his respects at the scene of the

accident as well so very tragic with world leaders paying their respects at this incident. and what was presented kate also told kevin idea that today's catastrophe is not the furthest tragedy to strike russian sports. before tonight i regarded talked about now as russia's worst sporting disaster absolutely i mean with the loss of a pretty effectively a whole team completely gone in one fell swoop it is indeed a tragedy but it does also bring to mind a similar disaster we were looking through and also some of my colleagues reminded me of this of the practical disaster which was also that was a midair crash that happened in nine hundred seventy nine in new positions which is in the ukraine and what happened is the practice or team had been promoted they were also going off the plate to get a football match and they collided with another plane midair nine hundred seventy nine august seventeen players plus officials gone completely and of course talking

about looking back at the cars that the great britain as well absolutely you have the events looking through i mean we found at least eleven different crashes i mean the main one that definitely i can think of mainly in england is is militaristic in my scene one thousand nine hundred fifty eight. and also even as late as one thousand nine hundred ninety three the zambian national football team as well in a plane crash. national hockey stars approach to the disaster this is the shock of this tragedy is being felt not only very greatly here in russia but also of course around the world absolutely so many of the hockey teams now in particular in the k.h. are not only attract russian players they attract players from all around the world also the n.h.l. who also sent their condolences we were looking eight to nine different nationalities some of the stars kind of our young america czech republic have all the nature of slovakia all these international players the repercussions here are not just russian they global but we also been talking about how how the teams carry on how how the city can carry on having lost you see the pictures there of the families how devastated they can be in this particular instance back to court and

all the other teams within the top flight a voluntary player went to play for them and this is something that might has been suggested by commentators like alexander because mark and another famous sports commentators across russia and now we can hear from the k h l president alexander madrid. a plane carrying the locomotive team crashed to right after the takeoff from europe according to the latest information only one plane has survived our teams don't think they can continue their marriage after such news thank you for your understanding and supporting this decision now let's commemorate the players who have passed away with a minute of silence. the president of the kontinental hockey league and of course comment as well coming through tonight as well from the president of the ice hockey federation of russia. we offer our condolences to the families and the club i see it is a huge loss for russian ice hockey because there were

a lot of good players in your islam so we will do everything to find out the causes of the tragedy to support the families and help the sport live on in your islam to honor those who died in the disaster. well as it was very much as it is up to jack says that this is all about rebuilding the communities rebuilding a hockey community and there's been there have been suggestions because it is the it's effectively the end of the team we there is a famous commentator xander because mike you suggested that perhaps other teams maybe donate players and help to help in the rebuilding of the city and also the say. an aviation expert marc advise a former american airlines pilot think the crash investigation will take time but its results should help prevent future tragedy. well the first thing they're going to start with you're going to get investigators and. typically speaking you'll bring investigators who have expertise in all the various systems and aircraft

components and engines. air worthiness. you bring them all together and you start with the records of the aircraft the maintenance records of the aircraft the history of the aircraft the history of the crew the weather at the time any problems that were encountered by aircraft taking off before them it's a long tedious process but these people who do this job and here we have the national transportation safety board who oftentimes are called in world wide as experts in forensics of accidents. they're very well trained and they're very detailed and nothing really goes overlooked they will find every bit and piece to put this together because remember the end result of the investigation is not just. you know to give closure to everybody but to prevent something like this from happening

again. we'll keep you updated with ace's developments of the hadassah fall as we get some of germany's top court has rejected it all seemed challenging that the bailed out of greece was illegal but the judges did say the government now theme the approval of the german parliament before providing assistance or that could handle the realty track thrifty to any crisis that the president of a nation. opposition party welcomed to. meet the crisis was through delays and a lack of vision of financial advice that patching young believe they have little to celebrate just yet. ultimately this is actually i think what we would call a pyrrhic victory it's an empty victory for ms that's markel yes the below is couldn't go ahead but like all good court judgments read the small print and what has happened today is that in fact the german court has come out with an announcement that the german parliament and most importantly of all the german

budget committee has a grid deal more say on what goes on in the whole issue on a larger basis what we're looking at today is the fact that it's yes below it's can go ahead but at the same time it's still a very very quietly picture of the we know that the german people are deeply unhappy about what's going on and they don't see there being any benefit in suddenly giving a credit card another bottle of vodka to a drying drunken man in a department store and that's what we've got here it's going to still be a terrible result once the market as a bit of a relief rally which is going on as we speak what's happening is that greece is essential to being sold high vying to end slavery by the way that the euro debt mechanism is working it's a farce for greece it's a farce for the greece people and it's a total complete and utter disaster for the euro greece should be allowed to go free and it must make its own decisions its own sovereign decisions that have

greece doesn't leave the cancer is spreading and as we know it reached italy last month it's already were rooting around the place in spain and it hit portugal italy ireland so far does the disease google for it finally kills the patient i think the question is it's not a question of how much work is there to get angry side of the euro i actually i much chances are that the euro is going to survive with greece still in it and the answer is really none. or further south here tally instead says death to prove the latest fifty four billion euro austerity package and the. come by strikes and protests. can. increase the retirement age when men and now the. as for final approval of the lower house of parliament within the past few minutes in spain the senate has also agreed to add a constitutional amendment to limit the nation's rampant debt unions and rights groups say the debt cat will disseminate decimate the welfare system and the most vulnerable. now russian pilot found guilty of conspiring to smuggle cocaine to the

u.s. early this year has been sentenced to twenty years behind bars constantine get a shank or was it detained in liberia twenty ten and transported to america on charges of drug smuggling our correspondent that is there just going to has the background to the case. this case builds a major precedent this is the first time when a russian citizen is sentenced to an american prison for an intent to participate in a crime in a case that was built by special agents posing as drug dealers arrested in a third country in this case liberia now you will be edge eligible for parole in as much as thirty years we know that his defense team has thirty dale's days to file an appeal but u.s. officials can take as much as two years to consider this appeal now the man has repeatedly pled not guilty in this case hopeful in till the last minute himself and

his family his mother and wife who are here to support him broke out in tears in the courtroom today as the sentence was announced to give you a bit of a background it was a family man with no criminal background he has never stood trial anywhere in the world including russia and the united states moreover he has never even stepped foot on u.s. soil up until he was snatched up by u.s. special agents in liberia last year and brought here to stand trial now his family as well as russian officials were not informed as to his whereabouts affectively considering him missing russian officials cited a breach of diplomatic conduct a breach of international law because they did not know where this their citizen was and because the u.s. state department failed to do really inform them. well libyan rebels say they've trapped colonel gadhafi and are ready to take aim dead or alive breaking the former leader was tracked down after loyalist convoys left the neighboring wednesday the

rebels are believed to have located a good athlete with high tech equipment and intelligence reports meanwhile the rebels now control most of the country after helping hand western nations but it's a stark contrast to how america and a portion of going to recent years before the un to get out the campaign the cia and m i six were allegedly sending terror suspects in libya for interrogation and torture according to documents there which have sparked outrage. and staying with the region's troubles the situation in syria was discussed in moscow at a meeting between the russian and french foreign minister sergey lavrov and his counterpart stressed the need for dialogue between the syrian government and opposition but the meeting also outlined a few differences in approach france is seeking it tough sanctions on the syrian government while russia warns of a peaceful solution but both look forward to discussing possible measures of the un general assembly later this month as part of this is stress syria let's not be

a repeat of the libyan scenario. we're convinced that it's vital today to start talks and that is actually what the syrian leadership calls for it's extremely dangerous to print certain forces in syria to boycott those talks and neither russia nor from swan's to see that happen every party in syria should stop using violence and we've proposed a resolution to this effect we encourage the government to carry out the reforms it has launched and the opposition should not use provocations and reject invitations and to dialogue. well last he's been hearing how syria will only be able to settle its issues on sticky western states stop trying to impose their own ambitions on it with sanctions. sanctions always hurt that people i mean it's amazing that these old colonial powers have now learned that it only ends up hurting the people not the regime itself it actually solidifies the power of the regime best the best

way forward is to butt out i mean that's what the u.s. needs to do that's what the brits need to do france the world is filled with dictators with tyrants it always has been this is a matter for the syrian people to decide how far do they want to go to oust this dictatorship do they want to go to revolution which is a very costly enterprise a lot of people lose their lives this is a choice that people of that country need to make but you know these these are they all come on you know powers you know britain and britain france i mean they're they're living in the old days of having their empires back where they're controlling the middle east and controlling the events of the middle east and installing their little puppet regimes extracting oil from these countries is going to go to something significantly worse they're going to keep playing this game with the sanctions yesod regime is not going to budge it's you know no regime is going to budge to with respect to sanctions and you're just going to see

a tightening and tell ultimately yes you may see a libya type situation. in israel angry protesters have clashed with police and tell of the valve to authorize new to dismantle a tent city or town was part of a nationwide protest against the high cost of living and social inequality ati's polis lir reports. we're standing in front of the mayor's house here in tel aviv where several dozen protesters are gathered there screaming at the mayor to resign they're calling him corrupt and they're calling on him to go home now this follows a protest just several hours ago where some two hundred demonstrators clashed with police in front of the city hall building they tried to storm the building there were throwing stones and flowers and exited and some forty people were arrested we've been told of several incidents where protesters were brutally beaten by the police this is all in response to only wednesday morning when municipal workers started clearing up several streets where people have pitched tents for the better part of two months this was

a surprise because only the government said that protesters had until the end of the month to dismantle the tents and urge them to do so peacefully but what we saw this morning is that people's tents were taken away people's personal belongings were taken away and the result was that protesters have called the government thieves and nazis and and warned them that they're going to be upping this kind of resistance in the coming days these protesters have been on the streets of several cities of the better part of two months they're demanding issues of social justice they were cruising the netanyahu government of putting too much attention on international affairs and not focusing enough on what is happening internally in this country just this past weekend there was the largest demonstration in israel's sixty three year history more than four hundred thousand people took to the streets urging the government to pay attention to their demands policy our team television . orders to remind you to start a home made a story the tragic a paying crash the russians as you. are has taken the lives of nearly all of the

city's hockey team as you get more details well then i will keep you posted on the next update is in just under ten minutes time between now and then though we focus on europe and the economic and political tangle it is finding itself in.

professor snyder thank you very much for joining us we're going to be talking about the e.u. but what a mess it all seems to be in what's happened to it appears on your the e.u. has become a bureaucratic system that we call a super national confederation of states but from the legal point of view it has this tendency to turn into a federal state and one of its central problems is not just the lens of states anymore but a federation without legitimate basis it has new nation new european nation but nations political relations within the union it less democratic all the time in this situation we're losing what we call illegal state which is the highest priority the euro two seem to be in big trouble what's going to happen to it you know. the euro will inevitably fail it was always clear that the euro project would not succeed already in one thousand nine hundred three. the lawsuit that was most

begins the introduction of the money. without the consent of the nations comprising the e.u. and this euro is being used as a political lever to make the e.u. a super state that for example against russia in at the same time. is a counterbalance against china the usa and other economic giants but this lever was always economically doomed to failure. the eurozone is comprised of very different here a genius economies because hardly be an optimal space for a common currency or a combination of interim markets with common currency it requires member states to do revaluation in devaluation of their currencies taking into account different levers of productivity and efficiency of their economy that we can member states are not competitive in bailouts cannot help here as we see now a common currency can be introduced only when the member states economies are convergent and have similar levels of productivity and there is now the case is

a long way before we can possibly reach it the worst thing here is that a common currency is counterproductive that it hinders the aims of economic development we still hold on to the euro because we want to make a superstate out of the new suit so that the subject of bailouts is also causing a lot of controversy particular here in germany because they end up having to foot most of the bills what's going to happen there. this in the b. or d. we have never witnessed a situation and the law is not respected as we see now in the rescue time or they simply say that there is no other alternative but to sometimes neglect in provisions of the treaties in their constitution otherwise the road crash of the euro is really a new the earlier it is only an instrument and nothing more nobody needs this e.u. which became a bureaucratic dictatorship we should have an association of european states in nations we should be capable of admitting the russian federation and a highly important european state but it is at this moment in today's form

absolutely impossible. the e.u. was born in the terms of cold war it was meant to be against the soviet union the e.u. wants to be a super state politically but it will feel economically what caused this car. financial crisis in the. air over the euro has contributed but also they did collection policy which has other causes but the debt existed long before from the time of the reunification with your money for the south you have been countries that are in trouble now where those that could boost their loan debt because of in subsidized interest rates they live beyond their means just think about it since the introduction of the euro the salaries of corks in state officials rose in greece at seventy six percent in germany at the same time zero point nine percent in wages in germany rose in five point eight percent in greece at forty two this is all from credit the easing of the creditors the holding of the interest rate is a fall senator in itself is

a mean reason for the debt of multiculturalism has failed european leaders say but what are the actual consequences of that failure as a way multiculturalism even people from southern europe germany northern europe hungry poland russia or european nations living together we know it has not feel there is no problem at all the problem is with the muslims it's not people who constitute the problem but it is land in comes with modern people build active groups to promote islam and educate the establishment of sheria law and sharia law particularly is criminal section is absolutely impossible for european relationships we have in religious pluralism europe in the single religion is done and islam is the religion that tolerate another religion as long as it has no power securitization with the biggest political event for europe it meant that state and church were divided in no one is entitled to impose its religion and determined against any tolerance of sharia law but it has nothing to do with tolerating muslim people it's professor thank you very much.
