5:01 am
one pm in moscow i match reza good to have you with us here on r t our top story libya's national transitional council is lining up for its place at the united nations a new resolution paves the way for them to take over libya's seat at the general assembly although the n.c.c. is not yet in full control of the country the u.n. also has agreed to lift some of the sanctions imposed on the could off the regime or he's got a he has more from washington. one of the things that the new resolution invasions is a special u.n. support mission in libya that will be set up for an initial three months to help in what the climate insist is essentially a political operation it would give advice on restoring security but would concentrate on efforts to undertake inclusive political dialogue promote national reconciliation and generally help the government in libya organize elections and
5:02 am
great a new constitution and that kind of u.n. participation is welcomed by all members this is something that washes and going to the united nations was talking about saying it's the u.n. responsibility to help create some kind of a law and order system that would put an end to the chaos there as a result of the failure to properly implement the previous u.n. resolution aiming at protecting civilians the country found itself in a full scale civil war with civilians suffering also the resolution expresses the security council's determination to lift the no fly zone over the legal airspace in the very near future all that provision put forward by russia and a provision that received the support of our members take a listen. in libya but chumming the situation into political diplomatically and it's important the council considers lifting a new fly zone over libya particularly as this new fly zone is being violated arbitrarily now in views the new reality on the ground and instilling the new fly
5:03 am
zone no longer makes sense its lifting must be part of the international community's efforts to address the aftermath of the libyan crisis so. the resolution would also ease economic sanctions imposed on libya and make sure it can serve billions of dollars of assets frozen by the security council in february and march are soon available to and for the benefit of the people of libya the general assembly on friday gave the leaders you went to the national transitional council which toppled moment gadhafi although not yet controlling the whole of libya the rebels nevertheless represent their. country at the u.n. general assembly next week as with the arms embargo imposed on libya there or uncertainties whether everyone at the u.n. security council is on the same page here russia called for removing a ban on small arms supplies to leave you to protect u.n. person personnel diplomats and humanitarian staff but the essence of the french british proposal with regards to lifting the arms embargo is yet quite vague so
5:04 am
there might be some tension over the issue there anyway when it comes to concerns over the proliferation of arms in the game and its potential impact on the regional peace everyone seems to be on the same page in the security council has clearly expressed those concerns the amount of weapons in libya that are up for grabs is that stream really worrying former president his authority left behind are brimming with weapons and the rebels have helped themselves those weapons mean very well wind up in the hands of people who have other agendas then defeating could offie that's the kind of concern that russia has raised on a number of occasions saying in a chaos like the one unfolding in libya the weapons will inevitably end up in the hands of extremists and terrorists and not just weapons but maybe nuclear materials that libya possibly has two. on the ground in libya fighters in the new leadership continue to pound what's left of the old regimes few remaining holdouts civilian casualties still
5:05 am
a very real possibility but the country is quick to condemn could officer assaults on the rebels back in march seem to have gone quiet as harshly as laura and explains. david cameron and nicolas sarkozy surveyed their handiwork the most senior leaders to visit tripoli since their countries began their names here intervention in libya they say their work is not yet done. until a billion. he's right civilians are still being killed but now that gadhafi is virtually powerless the people increasingly doing the killing are national transitional council forces together with nato as they attack bani walid and other gadhafi strongholds on that cameron and sarkozy are silent to paraphrase george orwell in animal farm some civilians are more equal than others nato insists they're targeted attacks but there are reports of m.t.c.
5:06 am
reprisals against suppose it could daffy's supporters really there are real problems on the ground there's a legacy of. human rights abuses on both sides. national transitional council have promised to hold their own forces to account and i think that is a process that we will see from now it doesn't seem to be happening yet the african union alleges that transitional forces are hunting down and killing black africans on the assumption that we recruited them as mercenaries that's borne out by reports by amnesty international which says the rebels are guilty of unlawful killing and torture it takes pains to point out that kids afy forces committed some terrible atrocities but also documents of brutal settling of scores by rebel forces including the lynchings of the soldiers meanwhile these home town is one of the
5:07 am
last holdouts a letter purportedly from the colonel himself begs the u.n. security council to protect sirte from being pounded by. nato has to tackle what it describes as crimes by the forces of the new government civilian deaths all seemingly assume what. cameron unsought crazy were quick to condemn gadhafi for killing innocent libyans in the lead up to nato is no flies a being imposed but no such rhetorics being aimed at me and t.c. in fact it's quite the opposite person spent such a draft u.n. resolution to ease sanctions against libya and against the national oil corporation in particular getting the oil flowing again. western for liberty and independence faces a tough task palestinian leaders. getting u.n.

forces have taken over two border crossings with serbia in the north of the breakaway region locals are mostly ethnic serbs and they've been trying to prevent the takeover by blocking roads to checkpoints and staging protests. as more. where one of the border crossings you're reading and the road leading up to it remain bloke's by the protest now we actually can't get much closer when you go up to the front of that crossing you're stopped by the buffalo we can see some of the k. full forces on the ground there we saw helicopters coming across and. you like helicopters dropping off from the e.u. police forces to these crossings also the albanian course the police they gave me actually got to eat each of the checkpoints at the moment and. the time being in an observatory role now of course the plan is for them to eventually take over control and that's what much of this. now amid concerns repeat of what we saw in july when
5:10 am
violent clashes over the course think of the making of me to try and take this place resulted in the death of a policeman is actually being relatively quiet here today what we've seen is a huge number of. i think it's turning out at these barricades what we put at the moment is a standoff situation is a war of knows because both the checkpoints and the barricades is the serbian protest is and then the capel forces at the actual crossing themselves ok no one wants to make me take a full force if they want to make me have to break up the barricades the fears sparking violence and the serbian protest is for exactly the same reasons they they were. predicting violence so we had the u.n. security council calling an emergency meeting at the request of serbia and russia and no final decisions were really made from that there were a lot of countries that were unwilling really to make these statements take a verse these control points going ahead despite the warnings from belgrade i'm from russia that this could really lead to further agitation. political analyst

alexander pottage says the nato led mission in kosovo assisting the republican installing customs controls may be violating the u.n. mandate. ok for meeting nato absolutely overstepped their man being their un mandate is clear they're supposed to be neutral down there they're supposed to be keeping the peace they're not supposed to be taking anyone's side they're clearly taking the baby inside these the session is the government increased in the capital of kosovo we have the security council were we have five states each with veto power we have three western states and two non western states so really if the west decides to support any unilateral action. you can't stop it so it's not surprising they've been sponsoring cultural independence for years now and they're actually thinking that they are entering the endgame now and they're actually doing
5:12 am
a hard push for it right now. passionate dress palestinian president mahmoud abbas about to seek full state recognition of the u.n. security council next week it's a blow to the u.s. which leverage its diplomatic way to direct the bid and which is now promising to veto but that's not stopping worries from growing in israel with the very real possibility it may soon have to return the lands it's occupied for years or he's partially reports. when he was wanted to meet us here in one of israel's bustling cities he wants to talk but not in his own city home and where he's seen as a troublemaker they are afraid. because. they're from a former group of pinney won't be shut up he says he's tired of being used as a pawn by the government thirty years ago the state made it easy for him to buy a house he didn't have the money so they offered him a cheap one the only catch it was in a with bank settlement now years on he wants to leave but can't because his
5:13 am
property has hard in value since he bought it for. help. from the so no one because the government doesn't want. the west bank of the. agreement with the you have to show that it's full of people and the people of gaza want. peace is one in two states has pointed out that the government does everything it can to keep him in most of the land here barren and difficult but that hasn't stopped building on its. own constitution has begun on more than two thousand projects here in the west bank morsi polities get extra money from the ministry of education for extra teachers or extra money from the ministry of infrastructure for more interest after means less payment by the circus these were the biggest incentives that are not written anywhere in the book istomin suggests
5:14 am
prime minister netanyahu spends nearly a billion dollars a year just to keep the settlements going but that has to come from somewhere and tens of thousands of israelis did the math the answers for them onto the streets in numbers never seen before in israel's history but netanyahu has no plans to leave a settlement the goddess of what it does to his economy alter the peace process there is no political debate. in israel about whether it's right or wrong doing it and we know about many certain learned and the eastern part of france where you have a lot of apartments which are empty as palestinians head off to the united nations the israeli army digs in around decisions and with women the way the prospects of peace seen as likely as many was actually leaving the west bank policy r.t. . partition. says powers line deserves recognition more
5:15 am
than some other nations who won there is more easily the sense of sorrow and loss not less place than anger that others instantly get recognition instantly those who want revenge as prepared as we are and who haven't lived close sixty three years under a brutal military occupation and get the recognition that state gets get an understanding from the international community and here we are coast constantly prevent things from getting these things by the israeli occupation by an american administration that leaving the sea. brotherhoods of justice i think it's about palestine joins the community of nations as an equal and is no longer treated as a subhuman species rights. eurozone finance ministers meeting in poland say they're delaying a seven billion euro bailout payment to greece they feel they were left with no choice after afghans missed several important deadlines but economists around the
5:16 am
world are far from happy about the turn if using the e.u. of needlessly jeopardizing greece and pushing it to default the struggling country says it will run out of cash next month and be unable to pay interest on its debts the last few months have been plagued by indecision among you leaders on how to handle the greek debt with their kids which is now one and a half times the size of its economy but it's not alone as the effects of the global financial squeeze are being felt everywhere i was already our finest also known as the resident found out on the streets of new york. as the global economy continues to struggle poverty levels continue to rise are you feeling that this week let's talk about. me well let me see i moved out of manhattan back to my house in central jersey which was i abandoned two years ago. you know that work. so basically i'm just living a day by day this is the wrong place to talk about poverty because here everything
5:17 am
is so expensive so. it's weird but how is it in israel we have a lot of people but it's ok to kill like it's getting worse than it is getting we're actually we're like big manifests three thousand people manifesting because it's so expensive living in israel that's baloney but below poverty is on the rise you don't believe it is what's poverty. well not be able to get the basics in life ok it's it's been like that since creation is it worse or better it's probably about the same as it always was so you're not by not so why would people manufacture such baloney sell newspapers you wouldn't have a job it is to happen have you felt the impact at all. yes because i work with a for profit organization that takes care of women and we're seeing lots more women who don't have a choice. what do you think would happen if
5:18 am
a middle class disappeared. i don't think that's ever going to happen i think things are going to get more expensive and there's not going be any more american dream there's no more white picket fence and not everyone. whether or not you personally feel the effects of a rising poverty level the bottom line is it seems like this trend isn't going to reverse anytime soon. probably in this news walk if you're curious how it was to live in the u.s.s.r. that is one place where the soviet spirit is frozen in time in the arctic circle it's not even in russia it's in the town of baron spurred lives on a norwegian archipelago called spitsbergen a vibrant soviet neighborhood grew there after mining rights were granted nine hundred twenty you today russia operates a consulate very making of the world's northern most people a magic mission but when communism disintegrated the community there collapsed with a little strange sense as artie's outside a boy discovered. its true legacy no one should be proud. heaps of scrap nationally

touring pristine arctic landscape building stilton over their foundation. black smoke over the snow covered peaks the traces of the soviet industrialists d.v.d. on the spitzbergen archipelago don't make a pretty picture if the guiding principle here is the worst the downer what goes like to tell the story about back in soviet times when norwegians were visiting barons word for the express. even. how prosperous this stuff was. times have changed by the soviet language is still attracting new region tourists or barons work cons and much needed cash that's why one big banner reading our dollars comment is what i would call right here a few days ago and found a drawing of a rabid local administration decided to paint a venue and. found where communism had long been
5:20 am
a lifetime goal but is rapidly good. calming the means of livelihood the rusty soviet heritage has suddenly become a hard to raise the estimation for the older generation of western tourists and while the tour guides are too young to have any memories of the cold war they're more than happy to cash in on this theory types of a bygone era we have some problems. here so curious. about this thing but now we have euros. minus. only one for the work of the mark. from. back in the nineteen eighties there is work with a burgeoning mining community the soviet union was determined to maintain it all costs surgically located halfway between north america and western europe spitzbergen archipelago is part of norway but a special status that allows other countries to set up industrial bases here in the middle of the cold war it served as the use of sars westernmost outpost now it's
