two suitcases. each began the journey. where did it take. the lines on our t.v. a deadly situation develops in the northern kossovo as nato implements shoot to kill orders to demolish roadblocks built by local serbs near a disputed checkpoint. people living in tripoli take to the streets angered at former rebels carrying guns in the city people in one of the few remaining gadhafi stronghold suffer from a deep i think you might experience part since. also operation occupy wall street grows in new grass against inequality and that influence people's fury turns towards the police following a series of arrests cases of brutal behavior. and the media makes

a struggle right on russia's political future in the wake of dmitri medvedev said interview over his decision not to seek a second term. watching r t coming to you a live from moscow good to have you with us now in northern kossovo nato peacekeepers have used to shoot to kill threats to great a road block i serve protesters on the border earlier attempts to remove it this week failed and left several serbs injured parties and they say at a shop he is close to the action with this report. on friday the k. four troops removed one of the barricades which. because it was set up in order to block the police and the k. for troops from gaining access to the area and we understand that more than one

hundred k. four troops came over there pointed their guns at the blockading 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 they put two large trucks on a bridge that's blocking the road the access ok for troops into the northern part of course about still more than ten people remain in local hospitals in the middle of it in the town of. after being injured into this clashes with a k. four troops we managed to pay them a visit and ask them what exactly happened on tuesday. this. 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 perforated my lungs. the most interesting fact here is that the case for 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 the room. seven men in heavy condition gunshot wounds fractures and bruises they were not from rubber bullets not a single of them had a rubber room 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 of the determination of the sort of people is very strong now to show that they do not want to be part of the course of the republic. although they are telling us to leave but we have no way to leave this is because constable is our land our home

and our life it seems that we are on our 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 cause 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 this but in reality this could destabilize the situation in the whole region all the actions of the native peacekeepers may only provoke a not prevent more violence that's according to belgrade based political analyst on the southern. they've totally and openly stepped out of the un mandate and they're really really now just like during one nine hundred ninety nine during the bombing when there was the forest for the albanian separatists are now the acting as 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. the stabilizing the situation they're actually bringing conflict . everything was reasonably peaceful until they gave the green light for our albanian special police forces to forcibly take the administrative border back in july and ever since then they've been giving them full support so they're encouraging actually the government from prishtina headed by hoshyar chief who is wanted for various charges from organ trafficking to drug trafficking and that they're encouraging him to more violence so they're not a piece of all there are total factor of war and the stabilization. and i say it a shot see isn't possible and he will be bringing you updates as and when they happen meanwhile you can also have charging me a video page to get the freshest pictures of this or that it's you could watch them

people are now realizing the cost of blindly supporting the revolutionary forces. there is evidence even going back to the very beginning that you should or it would be it was a hotbed of islamic radicalism some of these people are going to hire one of the leaders who was killed recently in tear was a libyan he came from this general area and now we know that one of the leaders of the rebel forces that took tripoli was also considered very close to al qaeda and was detained by the united states for some time before he was allowed to go free so it appears that people with guns on the side of the libyan rebels are now the government or people who have this very mixed background and it's not clear how that you know when you get down to the point once the country under the control there so this force which side of this force will will be predominant. live in

a very scary forces say they have surrounded the city of sirte gadhafi stronghold meanwhile aid agencies are along with the thousands of civilians fleeing the besieged town people are being driven from their homes by fierce fighting as well as a lack of supplies rob lyons deputy editor of the end upin an online magazine spike says the situation has only been made worse by nato. and this is the inevitable consequence of the think things that i got rolling back in february the year that i kind of half hearted intervention was always going to end up with by gadhafi forces in fact is this is the kind of loss that we expected in tripoli a few weeks ago that never happened and clearly there's a lot in this thing about the internet the role of the international community you know could be making things worse not simply by bombarding the city put by actually having made such a fuss about civilians being injured or or or harshly by the hated half it put by saying that if given the khadafi forces

a real face and to keep keep the civilians in the city. probably against their well i'm sure many of them would like to get out of there know. their fates if you become a kind of shield by which the that they can they can stay there for a. run for a bit longer. but with no end in sight of libyan conflict and many are warning it could follow the path of the afghan war that's been raging for a decade now later in the program we asked people in new york what they think ten years of fighting have achieved. i don't. really see anything changing even if we see here another hundred years or a war there without war they better be for something you know we better be good something that it you think that's going to happen. more opinions on the worthiness of the afghan war from the big apple in just a few minutes. plus one of the worst droughts six decades forces a growing number of farmers a baby and take their own lives to look at why their families leave the state not

make sure. all hundreds of people have hit the streets of portugal stew biggest cities to protest against a sturdy measures that rigid country had asked for a seventy eight billion euro rescue package to avoid bankruptcy a lot of the bailout agreed to implement harsh cuts but is still fighting to reduce its budget deficit and another struggling eurozone state greece is trying to convince international inspectors that it deserves another portion of its bailout big recover had to push through pension cuts for taxes to try and please its creditors however for the national journalist and blogger dickens equal for now says the more bailouts greece receives the worse it gets for the economy. if they get the money the debt burden continues because they're still going to primary deficit which means that they have to borrow money from a creditor creditors to pay back their creditors the interest on their debt which

we have grows at the same time they're cutting the public sector which is a huge part of our economy the contraction in their g.d.p. that makes the debt burden grow more and more relative. to be required to make it more the heart of the very back i think at this point being you or a lot of the people in europe are beginning to realize. at least greece and i think also i portugal and ireland are into big trouble to simply continue to address the problems piecemeal the way they've been doing it i think that at this point they need to have a structured solution for greece for ireland for portugal i think spain also and then figure out what we're going to do with italy i don't know if that's a much bigger problem but i think that in late late this year early next year some sort of solution that we could be devised that incorporates greece ireland portugal spain perhaps in a total kind of restructuring package either that or greece is going to have to unilaterally default and it's not only greeks up in arms about the situation they've been dumped into the u.s. is also witnessing agri roots in the nation's financial hub hundreds have thrown

their weight behind the latest administration named occupy wall street to protest against the huge influence of bad behavior of corporations and it billionaires artes and associates sure cannot lose their. good systems are here for simple reason to do so and defrauded by the system that treats greed against meltdown that led to konami collapse in six americans currently living in poverty bankers were held unaccountable and it was left to suffer this could be the skeleton of the beginning of what was really as high profile activists and scholars started joining these crowds it became harder for the media to ignore these demonstrations it also became hard for most americans to not take these crowd seriously as a police brutality started to her last weekend over eighty six her arrested several women were surrounded by police now and nice with pepper spray but these protesters say they're willing to pay any price to get their voices heard

a lot of people are on the one percent. you know a fraction of the one percent that have all the money and really all of our if you think about it because they say goes they influenced a lot of decisions which doesn't help anyone else but them. that's why everyone else is intruding on the protests together first family and support immediately came into this to become reminiscent of what america saw in wisconsin is up to seventy thousand people essentially support the cuttle who will take their places if. you can support that that is to see. if any of these demonstrators are planning to see here and roll numbers into a real. purpose after all if the arab spring was applauded by the powers that be why not listen to a similar place for a change. as the situation is pretty. well as the authorities are accused of

trying to silence the accu forces on wall street art is mass kaiser and stacy herbert are refusing to stay quiet later this hour they look at why some are so keen to put an end to for now. the world bank preferred to be oh you all agree there we can't talk the truth here in the financial world here's a little video clip i want to turn to and this is the former greek finance minister yeah no it's papantonio and he is that talking about this rumors of a fifty percent. haircut and greek debt should a solution require a fifty percent haircut as as i believe the current finance minister suggested you know that i'm afraid it's music closer because if you could be this. video games whose position for greece he asked pop antonio financial harpies i mean that's and he doesn't want to talk about it understandably but the cure for financial herpes yanis antonio is you've got to talk about it you've got to go to the doctor or

how significant is the timing and its analysts have been saying. to media has finally managed to close the deal list of the biggest winners joining that are coming presidential election next more trouble no loss of focus is definitely on the sudden dismissal of now former finance minister alex equaling who is always thought to be the key l.-i both off the government's hands off the president's administration the commerce newspaper says that step to dismiss him like receiving more questions into what else could happen while meeting with 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 problem and she oh action will be held in russia energy center and the presidential ball will be held next more cheney didn't happen still and according to me to be here it's still

going to be up to the people to decide who gets to run because she next despite eighty recommendation. me. for a little analyst vicious thought they could have told our team that the logic and addition have been better if the session was clear the day it was announced and now i think this situation is pretty logical. and mediator for both representing this same political force united russia not being completely similar and not being poor in politics and they're still pretty close to logically and politically at this point as we did if explained. is more popular. himself and the question is about winning the next presidential election there will not come automatically it will be a fight put it was more equipped to leave united russia. in the next presidential

their closets and most of the farmers are committing suicide and usually ruins of the other farmers who committed suicide rommel lakshmi's 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 ground. how should i carry on with my life and nothing is good for me and my children and there is no one to help us how do are there are those trouble someone needs to help us. all the government has a tentative deal with the high number of farmers they were side by compensating two thousand dollars to affected families many families say they haven't received any money and even go through 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 or 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 a lot is not available for the farmers the government is not providing sufficient loans which is forcing foam is on the bills of money lenders. those who've tried to beat the drought themselves took out huge loans to take 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 true isn't it we farmers are leading a very sad life just sinking water levels mean these wells are useless but have left a deep hole in farmer's pockets the seed beings turn their backs on those who couldn't repay their debts the loan sharks are now demanding high interest rates and won't

a happy ending. it's been ten years since the us bound to afghanistan as a prelude to an ongoing war later has it been worth it this week let's talk about that four wars as no benefit to what is still doing there for ten years i don't know what to him. do and i don't know it's probably another vietnam. war where the problem is not a winner. the other saw going to win it's just a case of more and more americans and others going at things clearcut see that it's not worth it i don't see a goal and i really see anything changing even if they are 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 the past nine years i don't think we've accomplished much at all very controversial question there's pros and cons to the situation whether the pres

the proses i think that we have to make a statement that we aren't able to. say things sitting down that we have a voice in whether it's there's more peaceful ways to present that probably how does it 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 we have to do. well eventually begin to bring peace and i mean that's such a nebulous thing right like that we really bringing peace to afghanistan well only time will tell you know i don't really know enough about it to say whether it was worth it do you think it'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 do you think most americans feel that way you know i'm sure a lot of americans are prone and so i i look at this way i mean for for

a war there for that long i mean i better be for something and we better be. it's a bit out of it do you think that's going to happen now 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. and watching our two year old twenty four hours a day is seven days a week our website is there for you the plenty on our top stories and also there for you right now what one activist group speaks out against what they say are you brave first ones to make ukraine a destination for sex tourists during euro two thousand and twelve their tactic topless protests plus. called one twelve year old girl is breaking and baring years of world records in a male dominated sport of power lifting you can find the full story online.
