no sorts of. those on our t.v. of libya's former rebels now officially represent the country as they get a u.n. seat despite you know in battles for some cities and leaving general civilian deaths. meanwhile as policy there is it's good for us recognition is really what's nice out there so we want to leave say their government just don't block them. and a war of nerves or service water over the breakaway corsa vote with a standoff a disputed checkpoints all seen by possible police despite warnings or tending bar it's.
8:01 am
just after four pm here in the russian capital you're watching our t.v. now libya's national transitional council now has a seat at the united nations which formally recognize the former rebels in a new resolution easing the sanctions imposed during get off his regime perversion was also made for financial assistance from the u.n. for rebuilding in the country obviously an education. 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 they claim it insists is essentially a political operation it would give advice on restoring security but would cause a trade on efforts to undertake inclusive political dialogue promote national reconciliation and generally help the government in libya organize elections and write a new constitution and that kind of new and participation is welcomed by all members
8:02 am
this is something that russia is important 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 implemented the previous u.n. resolution aiming at protecting civilians the country found itself in a full scale civil war with civilians suffering note also the resolution expresses the security council's determination to lift the no fly zone over the leading airspace in the very near future well that's a provision called forward by russia and a provision that we see the support of our members take a listen. in libya very charming the situation into political diplomatically and it's important the council considers lifting the new fly zone over libya particularly as this new fly zone has been violators arbitron now induce the new reality on the ground maintaining the new fly zone no longer makes sense it's lifting must be part of the international community's efforts to address the
8:03 am
aftermath of the libyan crisis. the resolution would also ease economic sanctions imposed on libya and make sure panes of 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 libya's un seat to the national transitional council which topple moammar gadhafi although not yet controlling the whole of lidia's the rebels nevertheless represent their country at the going general assembly next week as for the arms embargo imposed on libya there are uncertainties whether everyone at the u.n. security council is on the same page here russia calls for removing a ban on small arms supplies to levy or to protect u.n. person personnel people mance and humanitarian staff but the essence of the french british proposal with regards to lifting the arms embargo is yet quite big so there might be some tension over the issue there anyway when it comes to concerns over
8:04 am
the proliferation of arms in the v.a. and its potential impact on regional peace everyone seems to be on the same page and the security council has clearly expressed those concerns the amount of weapons in the that are up for grabs is extremely worrying because the his army left behind are only brimming with weapons and the rebels have helped themselves those weapons may very well wind up in the hands of people who have other agendas then defeating khadafi 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 to. well palestinians are determined to have their state officially recognized so how do they feel about libya's former rebels being given instant official status. to a sense of sorrow and loss of life frustration and anger later in the program we
8:05 am
speak to a palestinian politician. thinks are people deserve their treatment the international community. the no fly zone over libya remains in force as nato where the former rebels backed the new leadership into the few remaining gadhafi enclaves alliance airstrikes reportedly hit residential buildings in the town of sirte where the countries that were quick to condemn attacks by the colonel's troops back in march seem to have gone silent as art is there and that explains. david cameron and nicolas sarkozy surveyed their handiwork the most senior leaders to visit tripoli since their countries began the nato intervention in libya they say their work is not yet done. until the brilliant. work is he's right civilians are still being killed but now that gadhafi is virtually powerless the people increasingly doing the killing are national
8:06 am
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. reprisals against. the supporters clearly there are real problems on the ground there's a legacy of such a conflict that you will have human rights abuses on both sides the rebels the national transitional council have promised to hold their own fighters to account and that is a process that we will see from now it doesn't seem to be have. yet the african union and ledges that transitional forces are hunting down and killing black africans on the assumption that gadhafi recruited them as mercenaries that's borne out by reports by amnesty international which that the rebels are all guilty of
8:07 am
unlawful killings and torture it takes pains to point out that gadhafi forces committed some terrible atrocities but also jocky ments a brutal stickling of scores by rebel forces including the lynchings of gadhafi soldiers meanwhile daffy's hometown is one of the last holdouts a letter purportedly from the colonel himself begs the u.n. security council to protect sirte from being pounded by nato and to tackle what it describes as crimes by the forces of the new government civilian deaths are seemingly assured. cameron and sarkozy were quick to condemn gadhafi for killing innocent libyans in the lead up to nato is no fly zone being imposed but no such rhetoric spin aimed at the n.t. sea in fact it's quite the opposite britain sponsored un resolution to ease
8:08 am
sanctions against libya and against the national oil corporation in particular getting the oil flowing again your emmett's ality london ethnic tensions on service border with breakaway kossovo intensify following friday's takeover of two disputed border posts because of and police with the assistance of nato led forces have placed customs officers at checkpoints previously under ethnic serve control the locals of trying to prevent what they call the unilateral action of kosovo's albanians arky surfer earth reports now from one of the seas check points . well where one of the border crossings you're ready and the roads leading up to it remain bloke's by the protesters now we actually can't get too much play so when you go up to the front of that cross thing you're stuck but if we can see some of the capable forces on the ground we saw helicopters coming across and i saw the you
8:09 am
like helicopters dropping off some of the police forces to these crossings also the albanian cause the police they've only actually got to. each of the checkpoints at the moment and that the time being in an observatory role now of course the plan is for them to eventually take a control and that's what much of this best still now amid concerns of a repeat of what we saw in july when violent clashes over the course because the naked eye 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 the serbian ethnic servants turning out at these barricades but what we've got at the moment is a standoff situation is being called a war of nerves because of both the checkpoints and the barricades is the serbian protesters and then the capel forces at the actual crossings themselves have been no one wants to make me the cable forces they want to make need to break up the barricades the fear is sparking violence and the serbian protest is for exactly the
8:10 am
same reasons they don't want to be provoking 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 for not there were a lot of countries that were unwilling really to make a statement to take a group of these control points going ahead despite the warnings from belgrade i'm from russia that this could really lead to further agitation. alexandr polish a political analyst from belgrade thinks that the nato led mission in kosovo is violating the u.n. mandate by siding with pushing on the border crossing issue. ok for meaning nato have absolutely overstepped their mandate 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 any one side they have clearly taken the albanian side these the session is the government increased in either the capital of course of all we have the security council were we have five states each with
8:11 am
a 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 been sponsoring because you were in the crown lands for years now and they're actually thinking that the endgame now and there are actually doing a hard course for it right now and there's a lot more to come this hour including down to earth answers to a very basic question. what's lobby. wow not be able to get the basics then like ok this is the link that says creation is it worse or better for you but since it was still newspapers you wouldn't have a job that is going to be hit the streets of new york to find out how much its people are feeling the pinch of rising poverty. and who are

expected to find a statue of lenin and be our tourists are flocking to a surprising relic sylvia. i want a passionate address palestinian president mahmoud abbas has vowed to seek a full state recognition at the un security council next week about some spite of a us promise to veto any such bit but also feels a blow to israel which may now have to give up its territories that occupied for decades some sutlers now accuse israeli government of using them as pawns in a land dispute here's our policy. spinny was once a commuter has here in one of israel's bustling cities he wants to talk but not in his own station and where he's seen as a troublemaker people they are afraid to talk because they're for a draw for me or for my drove pinney won't shut up he says he's tired of being used as a pawn by the government fifty years ago the state made it easy for him to buy
8:13 am
a house he didn't have the money so they offered him a cheap one the only catch it was an away spent system and now years on he wants to leave but can't because his property has hard in value since he bought it so. going to help. form so no work because the government brother they want but. the west bank of the. agreement with the have to show that it's full of people and the people of gaza want to live he says one in two states has pointed out that the government does everything it can to keep him in most of the land barren and difficult. but that hasn't stopped. in a month to month constructs and has begun on more than two thousand projects here in the west bank qualities get extra money from the ministry of education for extra teachers or extra money from the ministry of infrastructure for more introspection
8:14 am
means less payment by the settlers these were the biggest incentives that are not written anywhere in the book istomin suggests prime minister netanyahu spends nearly a billion dollars a year just to keep the system it's going but that has to come from somewhere and tens of thousands of israelis diplomats the answers will come onto the streets in numbers never seen before in israel's history but netanyahu has no plans to leave the statements but goddess of what it does to his economy alter the peace process there is no political gain. in israel about whether it's right or wrong doing it. we know about many certainly. part of the friends where you have lots of apartments which are empty as palestinians head off to the united nations is really only digs in a wrong decision and with women the way the prospects of peace seem as unlikely as the rise actually leaving the west bank policy archie. palestinian
8:15 am
politician. palestine disserves recognition more than some other nations that gave their. sense of sorrow and loss not their station and anger but others instantly get recognition and instantly those who were as prepared as we are and who have been cleared for sixty three years under brutal military occupation get recognition it's they could get some work get an understanding from the international community and here we are constantly preventing from getting these things by the creation of an american administration that the. benefits of justice i think it's about palestine joins the community of nations as an equal and there's no longer. a subhuman species. euro zone finance ministers have delayed until october the decision on another hand out of rescue

cash for greece where they don't think the country is doing enough to cut its massive debts or greece was scheduled to receive the eight billion euro gold at the end of september athens sir's it will run out of money next month they're going to be able to pay the interest on his case are appalled at the last few months have been plagued by indecision among. its on how to deal with greece's debt which is now one and a half times the size of its economy but it's not alone the global financial squeeze is being felt everywhere i saw her from a sound out in new york. as the global economy continues to struggle poverty levels continue to rise are you feeling the effects this week let's talk about that. well let me see i moved out a man back to my house in central jersey which was i abandoned two years ago. out of work so basically i'm just living
8:17 am
a day by day this is the wrong place to talk about poverty because here everything is so expensive so. it's weird but how is it in israel we have a lot of people but it's ok you feel like it's getting worse there it is getting worse actually where the. big manifests three thousand people manifesting because it's too expensive living in israel that's baloney much followed poverty is on the rise you don't believe it is what's poverty. how not being able to get the basics then life ok 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 this is that happened have you got the facts and all. yes because i work with the for profit organization that takes care of women and we're seeing lots more women. what do you think would happen if
8:18 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. now if you're curious as to how it felt to live in the u.s.s.r. there is one place where the soviet spirit is frozen in time and it's not even in russia it's a town of barons burge of the arctic circle which lives on a norwegian archipelago called spitsbergen a vibrant soviet settlement grew there after mining rights were granted in the one nine hundred twenty s. but when communism collapsed so to the community there in the third of her special reports on a boycott finds out how an old soviet dream still provides a means of survival and is also helping preserve the past. it's
8:19 am
a legacy no one should be proud of heaps of scrap metal littering pristine arctic landscape building stilton over that foundation. black smoke over the snow covered peaks the traces of the soviet industrial activity on the burgen archipelago don't make a pretty picture if the guiding principle here is the worst the better walk of life the coldest back in soviet times when norwegians were visiting barons were they don't want to. be and how prosperous this was well prime august weekend where the summit if you are trapped in a region tourists are barren word i would much needed cash that's why when. our goal is common it was a few days ago and started throwing away the local administration decided to intervene you. and barons were central where communism had long stopped being
8:20 am
a lifetime goal but is rapidly becoming the means of livelihood the rusty soviet heritage has suddenly become a hard to reach destination for 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 the spirit types of a bygone era we have some problems with. the use of tourists. mubarak. goes but now we have you removed. from. that in the nine hundred eighty s. there was a burgeoning mining community there the soviet union was determined to maintain its own cost to teach it to be located halfway between north america and western europe the spitzbergen archipelago is part of norway with a special status that allows other countries to set up industrial bases here and
8:21 am
then. well of the cold war it served as the use of stars westernmost outpost now it's one of the soviet union slask out country where preserved relics. it is essentially a tour of what would have happened to the soviet union if it was cut off from any financial support for two decades it's a curious thing for west interested i think it could be even more appealing for russian troops. to keep its presence on spitsbergen russia is still maintaining a coal mine here but in terms of profit it's far behind local server near shops so between married bill it is a big hit the defunct are in curtain still helps keep the money flowing guys it's the russians who in your words you can't blame rubbles liquor on the. euros the local administration is increasingly under pressure to bring the infrastructure up to more than standards these modernization efforts are not very popular with tourist operators if you come into
8:22 am
