great. look the police. is on r t a libya's former rebels now officially represent the country as they get a u.n. seat despite new civilian deaths and continuing battles for the last gadhafi strongholds . meanwhile as palestine prepares its been for you and recognition is really west that selfless who want to leave say the government just won't let up. and a war of nerves on service border with breakaway kossovo with a standoff the disputed checkpoints following their seizure by casa the police despite warnings of pending violence.

and watching r t coming to you live from moscow welcome to the program our top story libya's national transitional council now has a seat at the united nations which officially recognized the former rebels in a new resolution easing the sanctions imposed during gadhafi regime provision was also made for financial assistance from the u.n. for rebuilding the country art is good if you look out past the details. 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 climate insist 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 the elections and write a new constitution and that kind of u.n. participation is welcomed by all members this is something that russia's and went

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 most also the resolution expresses the security council's determination will lift the no fly zone over the levy an airspace in the very near future all that provision put forward by russia and a provision that we see the support of our members take a listen. in libya but chumming the situation into political diplomatically and it's important to consider solution a new fly zone over libya particularly as this no fly zone is being violence is arbitrary now induce the new reality on the ground intervening the new flows will no longer make 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 libya's u.n. seat to the national transitional council which toppled prominent with alfie although not yet controlling the whole of levy or the rebels nevertheless represent their. at the u.n. 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 leave you to protect u.n. personnel personnel diplomats 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 the proliferation of arms in the v.a.

and its potential impact on the green general 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 more could actually it's army left behind armories 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 could offie that's the kind of concern that russia has raised on a number of occasions saying in a care 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 lead to possibly has to. palestinians are determined to have the various state officially recognized so how did they feel about lagos when the rebels be given instant official status. the sense of sorrow and loss of blood for slaves from the under leader of the program we speak to palestinian politician we think people

deserve fair treatment from the international community. but no fly zone over libya remains in force as nato and former rebels back the new leadership's push into the few remaining get off the enclaves alliance airstrikes reportedly hit residential buildings of the town of sirte but the countries that were quick to condemn attacks by the colonel's troops back in march seem to have gone silent as artie's lore emmet 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 . and millions. working 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 all matt 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 suppose it could duffy supporters clearly there are real problems on the ground is a legacy of such a conflict that you will have human rights abuses taking on both sides the rebels 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 and ledges 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 killings and

torture it takes pains to point out the kids ask the forces committed some terrible atrocities but also documents of brutal still linger scores by rebel forces including the lynchings of gadhafi soldiers meanwhile peter after his 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. ans 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 as no fly zone being imposed but no such rhetoric spearing aimed at the empty sea in fact it's quite the opposite britain's ponces u.n.

resolution to ease sanctions against libya and against the national oil corporation in particular getting the oil flowing again your emmett's r.t. london. ethnic tensions on service border with breakaway kossovo intensify following friday's takeover of two disputed border posts cause of increase with the assistance of a need to lead forces have placed customs officers at checkpoints previously under an excerpt control well locals have tried to prevent what they called the unilateral action of kosovo. artists our first reports are from near one of the seas checkpoints where one of the border crossings you're reading and the roads leading up to it remain bloke's by the protest now we actually can't get too much place when you go up to the front of that cross thing if you go by that we can see some of the capel forces on the ground there we saw helicopters coming across and.

you like helicopters dropping off some of the police forces to these crossings also the albanian cars the police they've only actually got to. each of the checkpoint at the moment and that only that for 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 to speak that's still and now amid concerns of a repeat of what we saw in july when violent clashes over the course the government king and me to try and take this pace resulted in the death of a policeman it's actually been relatively quiet here today what we've seen is a huge number of serbian i think 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 at the barricades is the serbian protesters and in the case for forces at the actual crossings themselves i don't know almost to make me think a full force if they want to make a move to break up the barricades there is sparking violence and the serbian

protesters for exactly the same reasons they want to be preventing violence so we had the u.n. security council calling an emergency meeting their request to serbia in russia. and no final decisions were really made and that there are a lot of countries that were unwilling really to make a statement take a verse these control points going ahead despite the warnings from belgrade i'm from russia that this could really to further agitation. aleksandr pov it's a political analyst from belgrade things that the nato led mission impossible is piloting the un mandate by siding with christian are on the border crossing issue ok for meeting nato absolutely overstepped their man being there un mandate it's clear they're supposed to be neutral ground there they're supposed to be keeping the peace they're not supposed to be taking anyone's side they have clearly taken the albanian side these the session is the government increased in the capital of course of all we have the security council 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 been sponsoring kosovo independence for years now and they are actually thinking that the endgame now and there are actually doing a hard push for it right now. well there's a lot more to come for you this hour including it down to earth pouncers to a very basic question. what. well not be able to get the basics then light ok it's like god this creation is it worse or better it's very bad since it was still israel wouldn't have a job it would be hit the streets of new york to find out how much its people are feeling the pinch of rising poverty. and check out the world's

northernmost monument to lead terrorists are flocking to a surprising soviet past. in a passionate address palestinian president mahmoud abbas has vowed to seek a full state recognition at the u.n. security council next week and that's in spite of a u.s. promise to veto any such but it also deals a blow to ease road which may now have to give up the territories it's occupied for decades and some settlers now accuse israeli government of using them as pawns in a lot of dispute here's our policy or. pennywise wanted to meet us here in one of israel's busting cities he wants to talk to not use on social mint but he's seen as a troublemaker they are afraid. because of the before and. the former drove 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 way spends it on and now years on he wants to leave but can't because his property has hardly in value since he bought it. from a friend nor because the government dug one. bunker after the. agreement with. the show that it's full of people and the people doesn't 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 it's there and difficult but that hasn't stopped going on. two months ago constitution has done on more than two thousand projects here in the west bank and what is a quality is get extra money from the ministry of education for extra teachers or extra money from the ministry of infrastructure for more infrastructure means less

payment by the surplus these were the biggest incentives there are not written anywhere in the book istomin suggests 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 diplomats the answer is brought him 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 deal. ratings are about whether it's right or wrong they're just doing it and we know about many certain moments and the eastern part of the event where you have a lot of apartments which are empty as kind of skin your head off to the united nations he's really only digs in around the city and with him in the way the prospects of peace seem as unlikely as the rise actually leaving we spank police

here r.t. . palestinian politician. palestine deserves recognition more than some other nations that there's. a sense of sorrow and loss but not their station and the anger of the others instantly get recognition historically those who weren't even as prepared as we are and who haven't lived for sixty three years under a group i'm a little occupation get recognition get statehood get support get an understanding from the international community and yet we are constantly preventing from getting these things by the israeli occupation by an american administration that really is to see. justice i think it's about palestine joins the community of nations as an equal and is no longer treated as a subhuman species right. here is own finance ministers have delayed until october the decision on another hand out of rescue cash for greece

where they don't think that the country is doing enough to cut its massive debts greece was scheduled to receive the eight billion euro zone that the end of september happened says it will run out of money that's not be able to pay the interest on its considerable debts the last few months have been plagued by in the session among e.u. leaders 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 the felt everywhere as laura her friends found 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 of manhattan back to my house in central jersey which was i abandoned two years ago. out of work so basically i'm just living

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 that it is getting worse specially where the. big manifests three thousand people manifesting because it's too expensive living in israel that's baloney what's baloney properties on the rise you don't believe it is what's poverty. well not be able to get the basics then life ok it's it's 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 felt the impact at all. yes because i work with the law for profit organization that takes care of women and we're seeing lots

more women who don't have insurance from you know what do you think would happen if a middle class disappeared. but i think that's ever going to happen i think things will get more expensive and there's not to be any more american dream there's no more white picket fence and not everyone's me a little nearer home 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. if you're curious as to how. fell 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 berets and the arctic circle which lies on the 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 did the community in the third of her special reports like son a boy to finds out how an old soviet dream still provides a means of survival and is also helping preserve the past. it's the legacy and no

one should be proud of keeps of scrap metal littering pristine arctic landscape buildings still to know where their foundation pipes black smoke over the snow covered peaks the traces of the soviet industrial activity on the gergen archipelago don't make a pretty picture if the guiding principle here is the worse the better what was life to tell the story back and so many times when are we doing for visiting barons were they often expressed amazement. at how prosperous this was well times have obviously changed by this i. still attracting a region tourists are very word and. cash that's why we. are in dollars common as was the car right here a few days ago and started throwing it away the local administrator decided to paint it in you and put it at various work found where communism had long stopped

being 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 this era types of a bygone era where you could have some problems with. the use of your wrists. but now we have new rules. for work. from. that in the nine hundred eighty s. there was a burgeoning mining community that the soviet union was determined to maintain at all costs strategically located halfway between north america and western europe bergen archipelago is part of norway with 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 stars westernmost outpost now it's one of the soviet union slask preserved relics. and there has been a good essentially a picture of what would have happened if you didn't if it was cut off from any financial support for two decades if you're curious sight for western tourists and i think it could be even more appealing for russian travelers to keep its presence on spitsbergen russia is still maintaining a coal mine here but in terms of profit it's far behind local supernews shops. is a big hit that it banks are in kirton still helps keep the money flowing guys it's the russians who in your words you can't put in rubbles you're on the ground you are the local administration is increasingly under pressure to bring the infrastructure optimal than standards these modern is ation after it's not very

popular with tourist help kerry tears come into a very authentic place like non-sport or think it should stay the way it is that would be my wish i mean that's the part of the let you know authentic tradition here. i should not i would not like to have it in a shiny condition to be honest the thing to change even for the better is not always good for business something that even a local band has become attuned to when they try to add morning russian songs to their repertoire the audience called all they wanted to hear was a song comfortably familiar. sound like ours see there is board pittsburgh an archipelago. well that wraps up our special coverage from our spitsbergen but you can still find other reports we have of the northern world south poles of the soviet union all of that r.t. dot com and also online for you right now a soft landing and a warm welcome for
