. bring you the latest science and technology from the rooms. we've got the future of coverage. welcome back you're watching r t live from moscow these are the headlines the new authorities in libya vowed to provide freedom and democracy but the people say they're afraid any criticism of the new government will be met with severe punishment. france and germany stand down and calls for police to be kicked out of the eurozone as the third anniversary of the two thousand and eight financial crash brings concern another is close at hand. turkey signs up for nato is missile the fans plan agreeing to deploy a radar system on its soil just a day after romania said it would also take part. to have the any un

general assembly of this month's art he said down to talk to russia's ambassador hill he gave us his views on everything from the arab spring palestinian statehood to possible new violence in cosco. practice it down with the college churkin russia's ambassador to be united. with thank you very much for the fact seems certain that the united states use its mental power within the security council to prevent any recognition of a palestinian state what are the powers that would have before we go there let me address another issue for may because this very moment we are facing a possible very dangerous escalation in tensions was announced by the course of our being in a sort of us and britain are basically to take over the northern course or by force

and another very disturbing element of the situation is that the international presence is be ok for the nato force. and other european. mission ulick's which are there in order to preserve peace they seem to be cooperating with that very dangerous course of well being in a sort of a sort of other division of serbia here in new york has sent a letter to the president of the security council asking for an emergency meeting of the security council and russia is supporting this request in order to prevent. the dramatic and dangerous developments in the course of the but. we're going to have. other interesting debates in the security council first of all whether put them in that meeting or not and to me this will be reality check. whether indeed the security council we in the united nations are interested in preventing disputes and peaceful mediation of situation like this so we'll we'll

we'll be following those developments and we'll see what is going to happen in the security council it's interesting you bring across the world because kosovo unilateral. independence and with. court of the united states and european countries this was done outside the scope of the security council and it was done with the backing of the u.s. and yet when it comes to the palestinians. the u.s. has already been screaming. the position of the united states is very often not entirely consistent to put it mildly because of the play like some other. western european countries they've done to apply double standards from time to plan and we have this vote several months ago on a resolution of the security council the israeli settlements of the resolution was essential in composed of quotes without using marks of course from statements by

president obama and secretary of state clinton and the united states went ahead and vetoed that resolution in the face of a one hundred twenty sponsors of that resolution so this is one of the problems i think in brain to put in train negotiations between the israelis and the palestinians if. the israelis get this kind of unqualified support from a country which is trying to play the main mediating role in the palestinian israeli situation and that it does not really help to move ahead but coming back to your very important question it is going to be one of the. interesting challenges for the general assembly and for the security council if the palestinians decide to bring matters to one of those two bodies of the united nations main bodies of united nations or both because the point i've been making is really calling on the people who have been showing up and you know expressing their concern about the

situation in and around israel and that talks and asked start between the israelis and the palestinians in order there are contacts. there are certain requirements. which are the palestinians want to see for those talks to start and probably israel is a would see it. as something being to their advantage because in my view at least sort of pressures our various sorts are going to grow in israel especially that we know we cannot be assured of the other situation in the arab world is going to war i mean we are all hope as i sure was the hope of those who are on the front lines of the arab spring where things will evolve towards democracy etc etc but this kind of a positive scenario is not a sure at all so you would say it's in israel's best interest right now to get back

to the garage is absolutely and this is what they say too but unfortunately they cannot proceed with the. various positions which are the palestinians are not to regard as acceptable they don't want to do anything about that of a certain other committee which is extremely brisk both in jerusalem and on the west bank but they are quite dramatically prime minister netanyahu you will recall rejected. something which everybody thought was an obvious thing reiteration of the proposition that a deal between the israelis and the palestinians must be based on one hundred sixty seven more as of course with the letter swaps which can be negotiated so the tragedy of it all is that. at least all reasonable people seem to know. what those negotiations should look like but that the sort of beating about the bush and many question marks are put. really

israeli vision. of their future. as neighbors of the palestinians in the neighborhood neighborhood they find themselves in in the middle east european country. it's a united states from what's clear they're trying to push forward to a resolution calling for more sanctions against syria and this is something that. the president of russia said he's not in support of because official pressure believes is not necessarily needed in orbit how. can you explain to me of russia's position on syria because it is a very dangerous it is a very dangerous situation and there's a bit of dramatic and tragic situation i think the russian position is reflected really well not something which was a consensus position of the security council first of all of the statement that has condemned the violence by the syrian authorities excessive use of force but

secondly it calls on everybody to stop the violence including the opposition and also calls for dialogue in order to resolve the differences and visions of what should happen. in syria and very importantly it calls for on the government of syria to implement reforms ever given arms or this is exactly our line of minutes and it's not just for the matter of pressure on the syrian government because after all in the european union the united states have announced what if you sections against syria already they are already in place saw essentially when. you have such a resolution in the security council they're asking us to rubber stamp something we should have already sort of done without asking anybody's advice on the security council but more importantly our concern is that any sanctions resolution. on syria in the security council might be seen by destructive elements of syrian

opposition as sort of encouragement looking at something similar to what happened in libya maybe happening in syria. that clearly extremely destructive or consequences our western call ix. to us this is not their intention to use military force well incidentally we have to remind them that the. statements and assurances from them of various sorts when we're working on that resolution in libya which then will very quickly forgotten in the heat of the bubble in the media but. of course the best scenario is that the violence stops in syria on both sides and the those are for the of announce them that at least we have a situation where the syrian government has a line those reforms are promised those reforms unfortunately we haven't seen any indication from the opposition to be willing to enter into

a battle on the ground of the very. reasoning they say that many opposition figures . have been arrested that they cannot negotiate in a situation of violence but in order to get out of the cycle of violence not to plunge the country into a major blood ship a dialogue must happen i mean we we just don't see this scenario of change which somehow impact thing as something which can be beneficial or which come improve in any way the community or economic or social situation in syria there have been reports that foreigners are currently in ukraine nationals have been executed by armed forces. you think that it's time for u.n. peacekeepers to interval the security council is working on a security council resolution and under that resolution u.n.

mandate will be spelled out for libya and in that meant mandate there will be steps taken in order to make sure sort of a law and order system is going to be created in libya which it will which will prevent for. those horrible things which of allegedly happened happening but let me also tell you that we are keeping a very horse track of those reports and at every opportunity would raise that in our discussions in the security council which we have very often and making sure that every measure is taken. of the new early going to sort it is understand their responsibility but of course nothing can be rolled out because the situation as you pointed out correctly scribe interest and it's chaotic when all that sort of called on board reclusion have happened including some killings of an all black people simply because they were suspected of having been there for mercenaries this is something which you know caused our unhappiness when we were raising our complains

and what is the. absence a lack of proper implementation of resolution one thousand seventy three if you want to protect civilians the last thing you do is start a civil war and this is what happened let's face it and that's the character in my last question for iraq. as more countries are unfree. that how can the world be sure that iran is properly by the new administration we were talking about how europe has security council track of various things that already are a first of all. those tourism oceans. spring established the sanctions committee. when the issue of them freezing assets came up people went to the sanctions committee saw this issue because of committee members of the security council through the sanctions committee will be able to keep track to double check on how this money is being spent and the same sort of checks and balances are going

to be also included in the new resolution of all of the united nations and libya and on lifting the sanctions front from media so it's not going to be a free for all. process because of course the tendency under those countries which is understandable have those assets in their hands is sort of to stop helping the libyan people so the danger is that too much money is going to be put in or on the table and disappear somewhere into the libyan sound especially under you know the current still very unstable. circumstances and i think very much for your time.

it is. going to take three. three.

three. three. three. videos for your media. criticism of the. turf. war and. just. and up next a late sports news manager and russia are set to make

a bit of history at the rugby world cup they are making their debut against the usa that kicks off in new zealand in around forty five minutes time we've the build up to that plus reaction to last night's champions league just tonight. hello there you're watching the sport and these are the headlines. a champions league double from dubai saves the day to ts doris day scramble a point against illegal. wild rubin arrive in dublin for the europa league now again shamrock rovers. class making history russia prepare for their rugby world cup debut against the usa. i'm getting back on side we feel he's going to reach russia one dr vitale petrols he's going to get back on the podium richard he did few months. start there was

a champions league mathias can also go came from two goals down to drop so you'd see you away at night so you don't buy a scoring buy for the army men with a loss coming in the final minutes so put the head just before half time and then because they're asking double belly just started right sort of praise from dubai in the seventeen seconds and ninety five minutes rescued a point beyond the man afterwards to scar manichean in this news he said these teams played badly but did deserve a point in the end elsewhere in group a to the side from spall made a memorable champions league debut stunning into milan one nil at the san siro but in prepaid behind opened their champions league campaign with a tuner win over been a reality while big spending manchester city had to settle for a one one draw with napoli who had taken the lead through cavani before colorado equalise from a free kick afterwards to the boss man cheney said vacation had booked was just. before the game we were a little sore maybe more so. because he was there for bravo you will get the us are

. we in this game maybe you want to come for a core all the players in the. it's their duty and if we play the same ball we can play better everybody but if they do that was the first game i enjoyed getting that or that player a hundred percent three years naples that is we can. group see a late penalty gay bars or three points against a little r.t. with both sides finishing the ten men and last season's runners up manchester united came from behind it in a point against ben three care ryan giggs equalising after oscar could put the portuguese ahead united boss sir alex ferguson though his team is being too cautious. and figure most to course. control the game it is a good game. we're pretty much. proved over to this.

we just couldn't get. our madrid thought great day after one nil victory over bananas they grabbed despite having a cellist sent off seventeen minutes ago while i.x. and leon played out the gold rush draw in the game that. well tonight it is the turn of the europa league where two time russian champions rubin travel to dublin to face shamrock rovers on paper rubin are the clear favorite stay taken part in the group stages of the last two champions league competitions but are aware upsets can happen having been passed alone at the nou camp themselves two seasons ago a manager but they have believes it will be a tricky encounter in the irish capital. for the reason no difference between games in europa league or the champions league for these games are the most important that we play the games in european competition.

as for shamrock they have become the first r.h. side to get this far in europe manager michael o'neill reckons it will be the toughest test they faced. russian champions to see years. in jail if the group is the. last two seasons sold the. quality of the players that. we expect. probably are difficult given that we have arrived in europe this year there are a whole host taking place in the europa league this evening a lot most of moscow represent the other russian interest they start their campaign in austria against drugs. meanwhile russia will make their debut at the rugby world cup against the u.s. in about forty five minutes time with the pacing the match is a greatest chance of getting a picture at the tournament both nations are relative minnows in the sport with russia ranked nineteen in the world in the americans just

a place above them neither side has much of a chance of reaching the quarter finals with heavyweights to strike the island and italy also in their group so today is seen by both sides as their only real opportunity for points russia is assistant coach is the former wales captain kingsley jones and he believes that they should be fresher it's their first game in the tournament whereas the americans lost their loss to ireland in there four days ago on the eve of today's match it was also announced russia will host the rugby world cup seven twenty eight. well on wednesday scotland itself is fifteen six when i'll be georgia and it's friday since. it was the georgians who wrote the scoring through the beauty really penalty but the thing to turn parts it back got before. you could drop goal in the first half but made it nine three to discuss it was also a long distance effort from him by the loss of the game fifty six.
