live from moscow with me rory sushant violence has flared up again in northern cause of a after nato troops brutally dispersed a crowd of serbian protesters at a makeshift roadblock but it is a claim with the soldiers of live ammunition a peaceful demonstrators have now established a forceful presence in the area. i was in that hot spot and sent us this report on friday of the k. four troops removed one of the barricades which. the course was set up in order to block the police and the k. four troops from gaining access to the area and we understand that more than one hundred k. four troops came out with their pointed their guns at this bloke aiding this particular area and ordered them that they should leave the serbs obeyed and retreated peacefully with no violence and set up another a manmade checkpoint and two large trucks on a bridge thus blocking the road the access for troops into the northern part of

course there was still more than ten people remain in local hospitals in me that i would say in the town of. after being injured in tuesday's clashes with the k. four troops we managed to pay them a visit and ask them what exactly happened on tuesday. this is. we were standing by the barricade when the soldiers started shouting and shooting at us i didn't know what they were shooting with so i got scared and started running away and i was hit on the shoulder and it turned out to be a perforating wound of my lung. the most interesting fact here is that the k. four troops and nato have been trying to convince everybody that they only used rubber bullets and tear gas grenades against the angry mob to pacify them but doctors in local hospitals told us that they those people who were injured in those clashes were delivered to hospitals carrying gunshot wounds to his room. seven

men in heavy condition gunshot wounds fractures and bruises there were not wounds from rubber bullets not a single of them had a rubber root all those wounds were caused by regular bullets which we extracted from their bodies now the serbs may have lost one of their checkpoints but they have lots more around the area we've counted more than ten different checkpoints the determination of the serb people is very strong now to show that they do not want to be part of the course of a republic. although they are telling us to leave but we have no way to leave this is because cost civil is our land our home and our life it seems that we are on their own now and we will stand our ground there has been very harsh international response on the actions of this week here in kosovo with the united states accusing the course of a service of provoking violence and the russian foreign ministry expressing deepest

concerns over the situation here saying that this may seem as a small as a minor border crossing dispute but in reality this could destabilize the situation in the whole region. reporting right well as tempers rise yet again and cause of the presence of nato troops may actually be becoming a stimuli for yet more violence rather than a barrier against it well that's according to alexander of pottage political analyst in belgrade. they've totally in all police stepped out of the u.n. mandate and they're really really now just like during one nine hundred ninety nine during the bombing when they were at the air force for the albanian separatists are now doubting is their infantry so this is what we have this is a clear breach of the u.n. charter and of the resolution twelve forty four all they're doing right now is that they're actually. destabilizing the situation there are actually bringing conflict . everything was reasonably peaceful until they gave the green light for our

albanian special police forces to forcibly take the administrative the border back in july and ever since then they've been giving them full support so they're encouraging actually the government to preach to now. headed by ha shem toci who wanted for various charges from organ trafficking to drug trafficking and that they're encouraging him to more violence that they're not a peace factor at all they're a total factor of war and destabilization. and we will be bringing you more updates from cause of all as they happen but if there's anything you missed or you want to see the latest videos from there and all around the world just head over to our you tube channel you tube dot com slash heat from the latest pictures or to the most wide ranging opinions it's all there on our channel we've got all the latest news features interviews and analysis and you can also have your say in the comments section and discuss the news with other viewers that's all that. dot com slash

t.v. stations in russia did focus on some of the most important to latest political events in the country such as his decision not to run for a second term in office his recommendation off prime minister was even a fortune for the top job and to the sudden dismissal of now former finance minister aleksey kudrin so there's loss' analysis and opinions in saturday's press in russia opinions both positive and not so positive was started with the flame of the sun newspaper really were well known here in russia and it's published in the order go try to show you this polish noriko the title of what were you after what's your ambition and the analysts that the newspaper was talking to have been saying that even though the the media has finally announced his political plans and the plans of his stand them with prime minister what do you put in there is still a lot of uncertainty since the official political programs for the upcoming

parliamentary and presidential elections still have not been announced however this point of view is not shared by the analysts that these this did newspaper a spoke to this is another well known big newspaper in russia it's published a lot to go under the title of how significant is the timing and its analysts have been saying that the media has finally managed to close a deal list of the biggest weird. during that upcoming presidential election next more true now or loss of focus is definitely on the sudden dismissal rolls now former finance minister aleksey khuda who was always thought to be the key ally both of the government and off the president's administration the kind of sun newspaper says that step to dismiss him like receiving more questions into what else could happen with the world meeting he did if he's still in office however there are analysts who say that the dismissal just shows that the president is

serious in his ambitions just too much of the parliamentary election will be held in russia in the g samurai and the presidential poll will be held next to more cheney didn't happen still and according to read to me this it's still going to be up to the people to decide who gets to run the country next despite daily recommendation that he made a statement. i think you're going to piss off reporting right there well i mean time political analyst. says that even though the president might be a different prime minister putin are members of the same team they are not political clones of each other. and now i think this situation is pretty logical. and mediator for both representing the same political force united russia not being completely similar and not being twins in politics and they're still pretty close here logically and politically at this point has matured if explained putin is more

popular there their media of himself and the question is about winning the next presidential election that will not come automatically it will be a fight and putin is more equipped to lead the united russia in that fight in the next presidential struggle at the same time with video is keeping his position as an important political figure potential prime minister and potential leader of the united russia which makes him a politician with great perspective in the future. now you can watch other full interview with the president on our website of course r.t. dot com along with all the other stories and video here are some of the items we have lined up for you there right now what are three of the label made in china flying high above the stars as the country has made its first step in exploring outer space and now many expect china will catch up with russia and the u.s.

loyalists heavy shelling and tank fire was heard on the eastern and both western fronts as well nato planes were seen flying overhead aid agencies are ringing the alarm bell saying the talents. of supplies of water power and food drastically low the red cross official in tripoli says the internally displaced people or i.d.p.'s are in a desperate situation. by the situation in search we have heard accounts of i.d.p.'s. and electricity being. and a lot of difficulties with the with the water supplies with with the access to food and access to medical supplies and medical health services we have not been able to have the guarantees from all the sides all the parties to the conflict so we have no idea of what's going on right now in the city of sirte

unfortunately what we do know is that there are a lot of i.d.p.'s coming out people are are fleeing from the city of sirte passing through bridge and many of these ideas peas have choosing to remain around as closely as possible to their hometown they are living in difficult conditions there are a lot of children and women also pregnant women who have difficult access to medical care so the situation is dire we are very concerned especially about their health situation right now. civilians and other people they're being driven out of homes by fierce fighting and a lack of vital supplies so mr situation only being made worse by nato of us rob lyons our deputy editor of the independent online and magazine spiked. this is the they have a small consequence of the think things that they got rolling back in february you

know that kind of half hearted intervention was always going to end up with a kind of last stand by gadhafi forces in fact is this is the kind of last stand that we expected in tripoli a few weeks ago that never happens and clearly there's a lot of the thing about the the role of the international community no could be making things worse not simply by bombarding the city but by actually having made such a fuss about civilians not being injured or hurt even though they clearly have been but by saying that it's given the khadafi forces a real incentive to keep keep the civilians in the city probably a good. many of them would like to get out of there now. affectively become a kind of shield by which the they can they can stay there for a. bit longer. the u.s. backed military operation in libya still hasn't brought peace to the region despite this being its primary goal as america's ten year presence in afghanistan still

struggles to where the country is turmoil that. it's probably another vietnam. it probably is not a we're not. going to win it's just a case of more and more americans and others going to the people of new york and whether they think the decade of fighting has been worth the results. harvest thousands of indian farmers commit suicide is one of the driest seasons in decades devastates the country. now a quarter past the hour here in moscow the leadership remains unfazed by the festering debt crisis in greece maintaining athens should not cannot and will not default their message however is falling on increasingly deaf ears and leading economists and investors and academics all say it is in greek. mobilizing for a new. government imposed austerity begins to break the back of the country's

economy salaries pensions and jobs a freefall in taxes and cuts soar all in an effort to satisfy e.u. demands in return for yet more debt a form of belo and according to william dartmouth an m.e.p. for the u.k. independence party we use obsession with the euro and only end in disaster. as far as the greek people are concerned adherents to the single currency means higher taxes low gov expenditure and cuts in their standard of living and also for and also even even for a country like germany in fact specifically a country like germany at here's the single currency means massive transfer payments paid to countries in southern europe and what's happening is that the germans are no longer putting up with it we shouldn't be where we are now and it is because of the fanaticism of this european elite and we should look very carefully at what they have to say in the future these are guilty men and they are discredited and what is very worrying is that as my as my father used to say to me

when i was a young man he said if you make a financial guarantee the nature of five financial guarantees is that they get caught and there is a limit to how much even a country like germany can produce because a country like france is actually much much less and there will be a long term question marks over the credit credit worthiness of france and germany if the multiple trillions of your is which are required are actually paid up and called on. and with the greeks up in arms about government sponsored predicament the u.s. is also witnessing a growing protest movement over its own right in the nation's financial hub after a modest start some two weeks ago the demonstration named occupy wall street has rapidly grown up to two thousand people reported in attendance today they say they're protesting against tremendous influence and the misdeeds of corporations and billionaires the otherwise peaceful demonstrations have been marred by a number of incidents involving alleged police abuse and intimidation coming up in

just a few hours here on r t it's going to be max keiser and stacy herbert exploring just why the authorities are so keen to keep these protests quiet. then big brother bernanke he goes watergate prepares to eavesdrop on everything mentioning the fed yes the fed is apparently seeking the creation of a social listening platform so they can see who's talking about them and importantly know when they're making negative comments and perhaps intervene and prevent this negative comments from happening you know this is some of the unintended consequences of the patriot act this is the paranoia of the fed they're breaching all kinds of laws so now bernanke you want to just do wholesale spying on people to try and figure out who out there is trying to get rid of the fed in this paranoid schizophrenic delusional mind set he's got let me just point one thing out ben bernanke i am volunteering to come to washington to help you straighten out

your problem if you read everything i've ever written and you eavesdrop on me all day long and stick a video camera up my strength training you'll find out that everything i'm said can only help you do your job better as a responsible person if you want to get out of the business of financial terrorism . you can watch the cars report throughout the day here in our city now devastated. pesticides and drought farming doesn't get much tougher in india one of the driest seasons in decades has left thousands of farmers all across the country with little crops and big debts even prompting some of them to take their own lives as artie's preassure to reports the government has turned a blind eye to the growing problem. the sun is shining on these farm lands in southern india commonly known as the country's rice bowl they may look watch but the grass is far from greener out here farmers are killing themselves in the

thousands. most of the farmers are committing suicide due to the influence of the other farmers who committed suicide romola husband is one of many who succumbed to drought and debt and took his own life some of the driest seasons in decades and an increase in pesticides and fertilizers have rendered their land barren for the grieving families left behind the future is graeme. how should i carry on with my life nothing is good for me and my children and there is no one to help us how do i bear the trouble someone has to help us. while the government has attempted to deal with the high number of farmer suicides by compensating two thousand dollars to affected families many families say they haven't received any money and even those who have say it's not enough studies show that during the ninety's farmers were able to make around sixty dollars per acre of land every year today just about

forty dollars for almost four acres of land the government has pledged billions of dollars in relief packages to farmers and promised to increase the minimum rate on certain exports but many believe the farmers are being ignored. the government is neglecting agriculture basic information like wind power will be there are not available for the farmers the government is not providing sufficient loans which is forcing foam has to knock on the doors of money lenders. those who've tried to beat the drought themselves took out huge loans to dick wells but for many it's in vain . we are losing by making these wells but we are surviving because we are determined not to come. it's suicide we farms are leading a very sad life just sinking water levels mean these walls are useless but have left a deep hole in farmer's pockets the state beings turned their backs on those who

couldn't repay their debts the loan sharks are now demanding high interest rates and won't take no for an answer you have to the money lenders and financiers are frequently visiting our home and torturing us we want to be huge sume widows like rama luxe me are now the breadwinner is tending to two acres of desolate farmland and rolling cigarettes to earn money to feed her children like her late husband she has no one to turn to and no way out a lonely life even though there are thousands just like her preassure there are t. tell i'm gonna india are twenty two minutes past the hour here in the russian capital time for the world update now here on our to some headlines from around the world for you this hour. medical took to the streets of the capital demanding an improvement in labor conditions health unions organized the seventy two hour strike against privatizing the sector accusing the government of a lack of dialogue with health workers chilling is also being witnessing large

scale student protests going on in the government continues to provide free public education. the white house says that a drone strike that targeted a u.s. born terrorist are lucky has hit a top al qaeda bomb maker delivering a major double blow to the group both of them were allegedly involved in a number of attacks on america including a christmas day bombing of two thousand and nine but american writer and investigative journalist jeremy scahill says it's still unclear if all are lucky posed a genuine threat to u.s. security. but i think there's been tremendous exaggeration on the role and importance of anwar a lucky guy he was at best mid-level management of a q a p the greatest threat that he posed the united states were his on line videos encouraging young english speaking muslims to join a jihad against the united states and you know that's that was despicable some

could say it was hate speech or inciting violence but we have a way of dealing with people that engage in those kinds of activities particularly when they're u.s. citizens you don't just go out assassinate them there would have been a way to deal with anwar a lockie that was not assassinating a u.s. citizen without due process and i would love to see someone show evidence that he was posing a direct threat imminent threat to the united states which would have been required under the authorization for the use of military force to hit him in yemen it has been ten years since american troops led an invasion into afghanistan but it's auntie's laurie how often it's found out u.s. citizens still don't believe this war story is set for a happy ending. it's been ten years since the u.s. bombed afghanistan as a prelude to an ongoing war a decade later has it been worth it this week let's talk about that for wars as no benefit so what are they still doing there for ten years i don't know what the hell

. they do and i don't know it's probably another vietnam. war where the problem is not a we're not. going to win it's just a case of more and more americans and others dying it seems clear cut see that it's not worth but i don't see a goal and really see anything changing even if we stay there another hundred years it was worth it to hunt down al qaeda but i think we did there at the start with our special forces and for the past nine years i don't think we've accomplished much at all a very controversial question and there's pros and cons to the situation what are the pros the pros is i think that we have to make a statement that we aren't able to. see things sitting down that we have a voice and whether it's there's more peaceful ways to present that probably how does that go on for ten years that you take a stand for ten years it's a hornet's nest there's no winner over there we have great. we're in there with

them but what do we have to do. well eventually we got to bring peace and i mean that's such a nebulous thing right like why we really bringing peace to afghanistan well only time will tell you know i don't really know enough about it to say what there was worth there and don't you think that's crazy that your country's been at war for ten years and you don't know anything about it that is a problem. but yeah do you think most americans feel that way you know i'm sure a lot of americans there were your pro and anti i look at this well i mean for for a war there for that long i mean it better be for something and we better be good. you think that's going to happen. it seems like most people don't feel like the u.s. war in afghanistan has been worth it unfortunately no one in power seems to be listening .
