a new maturity in russia's democracy i almost were mostly a wish for all the part of their point out these people probably remember the times from the hard work i fell for i was there if they decide to put in the will which ultimately was one of the results of the collapse of your society i remember before coming to power radio gave an interview where he basically said that russia will not survive another conflict even siberians legally is a team yet again running for president brought up so many questions that the acting president had to need. we cross the t.'s and dot the i's crystal ball about how well the deal was sealed up against what are you talking about going the election campaign has just started there was a simple question which one of all people rejected all. of them were the choices made by the peace and these are not me or words thompson true any politician any

a dismissal could throw the russian economy into stagnation however a london based russia expert martin mccauley thinks the country has the potential to overcome financial hurdles. russia is in a pretty good economic situation at present if you look at the oil revenues if you do good gas if you do good growth timber room which kills diamonds and so on russia is a very strong position. the world value isn't really affecting russia really because it has reserves are over four hundred billion dollars. it can take some of the day but at present because on the situation it is quite good because the i.m.f. is expecting something like four percent growth this year which is vastly superior to the european union america. still to come in the program thousands are driven from their homes in the coastal city of sewerage due to fighting between pro and take it out of fires as the humanitarian situation on the ground worsens. eight

months after the overthrow of president hosni mubarak r t looks at where the rejections managed to get what they were fighting for. the end game is rapidly approaching for greece as its government declares that it only has the cash to pay its bills for eight more days after which its only option will be at a thought in response that you use kick its bureaucratic machine into gear with debt inspectors and desperate negotiations to billions more bailout cash for athens leaders of france and germany also announced a meeting in the coming days to finalize an expansion of the blocks emergency cash for french president nicolas sarkozy and a fan of the e.u. stash intensive bailout tactics as an only remaining option but as a tease their first reports it may all yet come to nothing as if we could come out of the problems under way of unprecedented austerity. reeses been the poster child

of the euro thing to crisis with germany to expand the bailout fund the country looks that's to get that much needed cash injection with the help come with some conditions here in greece that people say the price that is being made to pay them for the new high earning that. is the deadline day for the first to be hit with the greek government's new special tax it's one of the measures they it's in place to try to secure the next tranche of money the country needs to put bankruptcy the extra tax which is it does about another week concerned that because i supposed to help blocks of the most of the budget to move in a year's salary cuts and rises in living costs people here already at breaking points the last. years almost everybody has lost at least thirty percent of his salary for or of his. era cost analysis from the opposition movement entitled we

wait pay he tells me how the need been expanded rapidly in recent months as more and more people hit that financial wall before. most of the people were not paying because they wanted to protest against the non unjust strays from no there are thousands and thousands and thousands of people who will not pay because in most people's desperation has become increasingly evident on the streets of greece but by this is repeatedly tracon out between via place and protestors she thinks through even more clashes this palin's than fated yet another austerity measure the fall of any property tax where organizing all of this. to put on our your mast just for political reasons greece and critics do not need i.m.f. many people in greece now question just committed think intro now for sure it will

be a very a leaders in euro zone are the bankers. and there really. is mr. bunker . shareholders. again and again and again are the. taxpayers in the euro zone despite germany having thinks it's positively to expand the size and power of the european pan out already critics are questioning whether that will be enough concise now turn to the many challenges. still face if the problem will move from. other european countries then to german banks. even germany. you know. will be affected it will find it's not just for greece but. with past measures failing to have them but this political leaders

continue to struggle to convince that public interest here is a still hangs in the balance these protests. continue many people hit the greece's economy now at risk of having a financial but it got a classic deficit as well. because the building in a sense and rushing to intervene in the greek crisis e.u. officials are offering solutions that will only make matters worse and that's the opinion of british m.p. godfrey bloom. you cannot tax your way out of recession or just depression is simply isn't possible in the great winston churchill's quotes on this trying to tax your way out of a recession is like trying to lift yourself up in a bucket by the handle is simply called word of the soon as the politicians the bureaucrats and everybody else face the truth of this crisis the sooner we can start to get out of it people are beginning to understand that they will be better

off by defaulting on what we need to do the rest of the european union the eurozone and indeed the i.m.f. is to help them in a stable controlled defaults in the same way they must be forces argentina did in two thousand and two only without a complete and total collapse tell in a structured way the european union isn't part of the solution here the u. european union is part of the problem it's the european union and the eurozone which has created this terrible cataclysmic problem so new is not part of the solution mr berg so least of all meanwhile in the u.s. at least seven hundred people have been arrested after a police crackdown on the young going anti wall street demonstrations in new york dubbed the occupy wall street movement they say they're protesting against the tremendous influence and misdeeds of corporations and billionaires archy's green apart i guess more obvious. this clash and confrontation between and right e.g.

the new york city police department and thousands of protesters took place on the brooklyn bridge the police showed up and basically cornered off both sides of the brooklyn bridge and started to move in on the protesters to make arrests that's when things got ugly to say the least the protesters were were banging drums and chanting the whole world was watching police moved in there were paddy wagons brought to the scene and things got very physical and this is just the most recent incident that has taken place in new york in the past weeks last week and we saw demonstrators that nased in the days five police officers police officers using netting to our grass demonstrators that have been camped out on wall street now these protesters have been demonstrating for about two weeks this is a group occupy wall street a group of americans bad have called on all those that are frustrated over the u.s.

economy over the fact that people are losing their jobs people can't get their jobs people are struggling to find money to make ends meet and these americans are now saying this is their their american spring and there are they are planning to stay down there through the end of the year and i can tell you this week by week this group of demonstrators that you know the wall street this group is getting bigger and bigger there's no doubt about that. now reporting there now it's only america where protests are under threat across the atlantic civil rights are being undermined as well after a summer of demonstrations londoners find themselves gathered by their own government after a large chunk of the city's hit by protest their. violence flared up again this week around cos it was northern border as new your troops attempted to dismantle a serb local serbs don't recognize oppression administration as

a legitimate authority and have barricaded roads to disputed checkpoints that albanians seized earlier with the help of k. four troops are chefs you want to cosset which witness the deadlock. in some parts of the world this walk you rode with probably be part of an extreme safari in kosovo it is now a quite expansive. ever says july's border dispute many lives have been dependent on this god per se can grable road through the mountains now this is the only way that belgrade can use to deliver food and bread for all the tens of thousands of serbs living in northern cossotto the course of the serbs have been barricaded in the road since july in response to the cost of the police checkpoints which in force the trade embargo between belgrade and the meter of its own choose day the situation turned critical again clashes between the barricading serbs and the k. four troops led to multiple injuries on both sides ok for blame for starting the

violence but angel xander each a father of two saw it differently fractiousness at 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 perforating root of my lungs although like nato forces also claimed they used only rubber bullets and tear gas against the protesting mob this was quickly rejected by doctors in need of its fuelling speculation as to who restarted the attack or to control what we have seven men in a critical condition gunshot wounds fractures and we were not moved from rubber bullets not a single one of them had a rubber. elevation if you like to the region on friday to go shake the barricade serbs but they came too late it's like their trucks pulled up at the

border crossing k. four had already forced to the barricades how exactly nato troops managed to disregard the un's plans is unknown but they quickly set up a derivative work to their weapons of journalists and issued. would have for anyone trying to demonstrate it mate was not definitely acting as an occupying force there's no question about it they have 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 they were the air force for the albanian separatists are now acting as their infantry so actually they're not a peace factor at all they're. war and this position belgrade has reacted with indignation and who didn't go she ations with kosovo until the dispute is resolved meanwhile paid for refuses to comment on their actions and who goes to the border barricades the brooder is open now i'm sure of trucks blocking a breach just meters away from the destroyed block suggests this battle is far from

over better is like this one are scattered all across northern kosovo and they pretty much reflect the mood of the local serbs it seems they would never give in and accept the fact that they're living in a self-proclaimed state and in this melting pot nobody knows where this standoff go and. for troops or become yet another frozen territorial dispute let's hear a sense of the sea reporting from kosovo balkans political expert mark gossage told r.t. that made a move into casa but only to push its own interests and keep a military presence in the region. i do hope that the international criminal court will will have a look at least since its national criminal court claims to be very interested in the way civilians are treated i hope that they won't make an exception for western powers in the way they treat civilians they've decided who they want to sponsor they want to sponsor the greater albanian project through which they see their own interest they see camp bondsteel the biggest military base in the world having

a permanent presence in the heart of europe strategically located completing that encircled of russia which is always one of the serious aspects of their game plan that's what they're about they're about controlling the flow of oil controlling the security of energy supplies through this part of the region they're about control nato is about control of territory and control of resources that's why they can stay on the side of those whose country it was not they will reward the organ stealers and the greater albanian terrorists with the country because then the albanian maffia over the big time that's the nato plan. i will keep you updated on the tense situation and the region but again always watch the latest videos from there on our you tube channel or you'll find there all the latest news features interviews an analysis and can also give us your feedback five a common section and that's all at you tube dot com slash our.

elite. revolutionary phoria an edge of back in february soon gave way to disillusionment with both the people and political forces dissatisfied with the way the country is being run post with our many feel lied down by the transitional military council which has so far failed to implement promised democratic reform our season is now we went to cairo to find out more. we knew that change had come to egypt a new chapter of freedom and democracy don't judge

a book by its cover when reading post mubarak egypt it's pretreatment lines where you'll find the new chapter hasn't been published ended or slightly revised we still have the supreme council of the armed forces. in. this country towards democracy where it may be gone but his policies are not but hosni mubarak's case is ongoing at this tribe you know new figures from human rights watch claims more civilians have been forced to face military trials the last six months some twelve thousand. during the entire thirty year rule of mubarak average civilians are giving five to. seven years in prison a lot of torture has occurred since staff has come into power. actor ali simply doesn't clown around when it comes to the supreme council or scaf

he has taken part in protests since day one and still has scars from being detained . he said very long they told people they had to stick it only three months after that so i shot for the struggle between the battle ahead. only because of well. leave the country for thirty years according to law if i have to seek asylum stay and fight for freedom like mubarak's kaftans the supported needs to rule egypt from graunt that aid that we get from the u.s. that one point five billion a year the easier proceeds from from the usa. and most of it entirely go through the through the supreme court through the through the army you know the scouts and while the west coast history books me change for the better the arab spring is a massive opportunity to spread peace prosperity democracy egypt sions

are left reading the writing on the wall in many areas it's the same as before then current affairs from some areas and getting more worse and he's now i r t khan . one of gadhafi stronghold stands on the brink of a humanitarian catastrophe red cross aid workers have managed to bring vile medicine to the coastal city of syria described the situation there as dire and the team also sad they saw the city hospital being hit by rockets meanwhile libyan revolutionary forces say they have surrounded sered and are preparing a final assault on khadafi loyalists near the chair. mouth national transitional council said you spider called a two day truce to let civilians leave port sat having a rocket and mortar fire continue rather alliance deputy editor of the independent online magazines like says made us intervention media has turned things from bad to worse. and this is the inevitable consequence of the think things that i got

rolling back in february you know the kind of half hearted intervention was always going to end up with a last stand by conducting forces in fact is this is the kind of love that we expected in tripoli a few weeks ago that never happened and clearly there's a lot in this thing about the role of the international community no could be making things worse not simply by bombarding the city but boy actually having made such a fuss about civilians being asian or even though they played hockey but by saying that if given the force is a real influence and to keep keep those civilians in the city probably against their will i'm sure that sure many of them would like to get out of the. affectively becoming the shield by which the they can they can stay there for a high on for a bit longer. and find more stories comments and videos on our you tube weapon our

website or rather our t.v. dot com the fields of despair thousands of farmers in india take their own lives devastated by a lot of the driest seasons in decades. one activist group speaks out against what do you say are you a first plans to make ukraine a destination for sex tourists you are and euro two thousand and twelve their tactic topless protests. the right to protest is something the u.k. has long up held and a fan of but now as the british government slaps a month long marching band on several london districts there are those who argue that civil liberties are under attack arches or am it has more. if you work because activists on the home office ban on marching it's clear it's an attack on the

democratic rights in this country. through september in six areas of london anyone marching like these people did last winter is liable to be arrested and fined or even imprisoned. the ban was prompted by plans by the anti muslim english defense league here in looted in february to march through tower hamlets the area with the highest concentration of muslims in the country but instead of banning one march on one day the home office banned all marches in six perez for an entire month activist richard seymour sees a wider motive. doesn't necessarily mean to say that a march isn't going to happen it just means that the police just have more powers and that's part of the wider problem but if you're restricted to a static demonstration the police are right who penned you in. a restroom very.

small purchases or non-offensive these people behind me are among the lucky few they still can march just by pure accident of geography we're here in lumberton which is not one of the six baros affected by the battle but is as many fear the government extend and widen the ban to take in more parts of london the scenes that you see behind me both small and large marches through london and many other cities across the country could be a thing of the past the band comes hot on the heels of widespread rioting in many english fifteen's in august it also coincides with the introduction of government austerity measures which some say amounts to the dismantling of the entire welfare state many say public fear of civil unrest is being manipulated to prevent unions from turning out to protest fears cuts and pat. reagan from the workers revolutionary party says it's just the tip of the iceberg to the problem that area

curfews that talk about shutting down facebook social network sites they're talking about the kids or you know civil war measures because what they're doing in britain is creating a historic change which inevitably. the majority of the population will oppose them the home office can only stop marching it's powerless to prevent people from gathering but because organizations are just standing that you've got to be able to march to make a statement as the unions did in march when more than a quarter of a million people turned out to protest the cup activists say that's exactly what the government's trying to stop just in terms of where we are at the moment in this country with the process of the steroids have been pushed through by the government trade unions are one of the major blocks opposed to our public order legislation goes tend to be used against striking workers and we're not being very clear i mean there's this there's been some recent examples of people being hold off picket

lines and not to obviously we can set a resistance to the cuts freedom of expression and dissociation enshrined in u.k. and european law with the u.k. renowned for its powerful union organizations but the ban gives police the ultimate power to step in and arrest demonstrates it merely for exercising their right to speak out against the government and that's a dangerous precedent to set your enemies london. brings recreate here on araa to remember for more there is our web site r t v dot com are you back shortly with more.
