and this morning volatility will remain this week point business in about twenty minutes. eleven am in moscow i matras a good to have you with us here on r t our top story poems prime minister on track to become the first in a generation to be reelected exit polls from sunday's election show that donald center right party is almost ten percent ahead of his main rival he's already served a full term which included efforts to warm relations with russia artie's correspondent alexei or chefs he has more. from what we've seen so far there will be no surprises as to who is going to win the election in poland the exit poll results which were published straight after the polling stations were closed on sunday night suggested that prime minister party the civic platform will garner around forty percent of the votes with their main competitors the party of the twin brother of the fall of

the late polish president lech kaczynski it also will garner around thirty percent with all the votes counted so far these results seem to be proving rather accurate this will not be the straight victory for don't know if he will still have to form a coalition with other parties in order for his party to have the second spell of power in a row but few experts have any doubts that the prime minister would be able to form a coalition with several other parties and take a second spell at power in poland this in fact is could be proved to be a very historic move because since nine hundred eighty nine polls have been changing their government and the ruling party every single four years with every election this it'll be the first time since nine hundred eighty nine the same party has been reelected and the same prime minister will stay power for another four years this is not a surprise to many experts as there have been many surveys and many polls

suggesting that poles have been very happy with their government with the way poland handled the global recession and this is probably one of the main factors why the poles have been voting for the prime minister spot even despite that the voter turnout has been rather low for traditionally politically active polls and the era of power for the last four years have signified very much improving relations between poland and russia in particular after the tragic smolensk crash which killed most of the country's political elite along with the country's president many experts have been saying that the relations have been improving since then with lots of help coming from the russian side in the investigation. and many good comments coming from the leadership in poland we are expecting that should he be confirmed as the country's prime minister for the second spell that we expect that he would not change his foreign policy many aspects of be talking about that and the relations with russia will stay on the same level. stay with us here

on r.t. still to come europeans find that being protected from poverty is becoming an empty pledge financially hard right you need it was targeting and basic social programs to balance their books putting a dampener on the block to boast of wiping out homeless by two thousand and fifteen . nato forces have adopted libya's civil war but as r.t. hears later troops are hitting civilians instead of moving towards the country moving the country towards peace we get some expert insight in a few minutes. but first egypt's military rulers have imposed an overnight curfew on cairo's tahrir square in other parts of the capital this follows a violent eruption between coptic christians and security forces that left at least twenty four dead what started as a peaceful rally calling for justice before attacks on churches and radicalism quickly turned into the most violent episode since february revolution military vehicles clearly seen charging through the crowds and plowing into people while the

army infantry fired rubber bullets and tear gas witnesses say escalation was sparked by unconnected troublemakers state planes christian protesters for instigating the violence international relations expert mark almond says the unrest shows egypt's secular status is under threat. the development of the situation is becoming very well made and it's alarming because of the religious tradition but it also is a woman from the political future of egypt who show was supposed to still teach selection in six weeks her and choose a new column late last year we began to school siege islands between cults and islamic groups and an eclipse of the pressure and it was in cities like the exam and at the time when people were really expecting revolution this didn't get much attention then when the revolution pain when it seemed the beast in the center of cairo two hundred three peaceful. people who will be. in the room. with the local christian community and. it's

a really big question. is egypt going to be in the sexual attention to being in the islamic dictatorship many will be many more people who. is islam is the most significant group campus and simple commission questions were many similar to the institutions who would fund themselves probably should be much less free than they had been. an islamic group and. r.t. documents the timeline of how the revolutionary joy in egypt turned into disillusionment and suspicion that's on our web site r.t. dot com you'll find for ten reports on what became the main stumbling block to egypt's democracy and why talker square remains a key battle site. and the american autumn inspired by the arab spring the anti greed wall street campaigners refuse to leave their camps and gaining traction across the u.s. and sparking debate on whether they'll actually bring a change. europe

social welfare programs which have been the e.u.'s pride and joy for decades face the axis of the economic crunch bites deeper among them are poverty safety nets that provide food and care for those living on the streets or struggling to make ends meet but artie's daniel bushell reports in france there's always a catch to cutting back. the new motion in the european parliament claims that homelessness can be ended in the e.u. by twenty fifteen but those on the front line helping people living on the streets say this is fantasy with the numbers without a roof over their heads. with the e.u. itself about to stop a scheme providing free meals things are expected to get even worse. the european union is ending its food aid program which feeds millions every year yet

more people than ever a coming through our doors. protesters are angry that spending cuts target the poor but they're also furious saying they're being lied to with elections next april the sarkozy administration claims poverty on his watch has dropped below fourteen percent charities on the ground see the real figures hoyer and roy's enforced claiming that one in seven french people now live below the poverty line with states will steer it in moves being blamed for this soup kitchen else like paris social workers say this shocked by how many now call this their only meal the most common reason given is government cuts to social spending the income below which people are defined officially is living in poverty in france is just under a thousand euros a month the state safety nets well below that meaning many are desperate five hundred euros

a month is what i now get from the government to most of them i had not enough to eat cash strapped e.u. governments elsewhere across the e.u. are under pressure to get more people off benefits if they don't search for a job or not enough so we can close it and make an end on the. unemployment period with job seekers being squeezed out of social security the face of europe's homeless is getting even younger would sell you we've got many young able bodied people coming to us for the first. times with the end of e.u. funding we just can't feed them anymore. because of. the polls not even good economics the promise of treating health and cruelly problems through the streets for. the benefit system certainly support people who are who are very poor and cannot avoid poverty trap fronts is for me charities a humanitarian crisis as homeless numbers spiral out of control in the power of the

world mean world e.u. chiefs congratulate themselves the homelessness is coming to an end. we report from siberia in a few minutes and join a group that's hoping to bag a beast. saying cannes is a very high to me over there in the cave in shelter or at least discover some traces of things so let's go there. for the world's most elusive creature with specialists who say they're closer than ever to grabbing him. but first went to pakistan where i dasn't suspects have been arrested after afghanistan demanded the u.s. put more pressure on islamic bad to battle terror but it's not enough to eliminate thoughts in the us that pakistan's government may be sheltering terrorists so i'm going to washington or even ready to support action against. reports. the

drums of war beating loud and clear washington calls pakistan a safe haven for terrorists we cannot hear the news coming across the border attacking our forces attacking afghanistan and afghanistan he said and then disappearing back into a safe haven. economy network for one acts as a veritable arm of pakistan's internal services intelligence agency pakistan is furious over the accusations calling them unsubstantiated and saying that washington came very close to losing a major ally in its war on terror if you talk about links i'm quite sure you know it says things that many terrorist organizations around the world which by which we mean intelligence things over the last ten years pakistan has repeatedly compromised its own sovereignty to help the americans in their operations the us while chasing down suspected terrorists has been bombing pakistan with drones on a regular basis the strikes have killed thousands of civilians use of going attacks

is not against our sovereignty it is also counterproductive it's the people of the two want to build friends in this fight against terrorism after the latest threats from washington fearing an even tougher assault thousands of pakistanis angrily rallied to say enough is enough for these people the u.s. is a hostile power it's china that they see as a friend in the americans in this one instance have hand it over a major hearts and minds victory to the chinese in pakistan in spring china officially notified washington that any attack on pakistan will be seen as an act of aggression against beijing the pakistani prime minister praised his country's relations with china calling them quote higher than mountains deeper than oceans stronger than steel and sweeter than honey washington on the other hand seems to have mastered the art of alienating friends with pakistanis taking. america's

accusations that they support terrorists as a way to shift the blame for the failure of u.s. policies on pakistan but the blame game may blow up into full scale aggression the experts believe that we need to elevate our response they will have a lot of bipartisan support on capitol hill u.s. lawmakers have already signaled that if there is the top action against pakistan they'll support it and when washington says the words safe haven for terrorists that's what you expect top faction and if it does happen pakistan could be the new afghanistan but with china as a friend and you clear bombs at hand sounds like a deadly combination for the united states i'm going to check our reporting from washington. coming up in about fifteen minutes our team is crosstalk to bait on what's ahead for the u.s. and pakistan relationship. because american and pakistani interests are so different you know afghanistan and with regard to support for these terrorist groups we could see the move of american policy from alliance with pakistan which

is a nominal one it's it's an alliance of which both sides lie to each other but it's like a very bad marriage where both sides were unfaithful to the other two containment we could see america moving towards a containing containing pakistan but i don't think that's going to happen i think it's most part is the need to understand they need a good relationship going to be culturally politically there's no imperial ambition there we're trying to get out we're trying to punish the people who attacked the united states we've done some most of that and there's a lot of argument for getting out very quickly certainly obama much of the right ministry of the republicans want to get out about going to very quickly jake if you want to jump in there. stephen the government's been killing people for more than ten years how many terrorists do you have to kill before you finally say enough's enough i mean the government there been no constraints on the number of people that have been able to be killed ten years of this no constraints drone attacks assassinations bombings killing of wedding parties it's. some point isn't it time

to say. bigfoot has gone by many names and been the subject of many stories but actually setting eyes on one has proved more than not everyone has given up though a team of specialists think they've zoned in on the creature's whereabouts and russia is worried if emotional reports from. the yeti also known as big food. which has been exciting scientists and enthusiastic from all the world for more than a century but explorers have never had enough evidence to determine that this apparently gigantic creature is more than just a big legend these beautiful mountainous forests in russia siberia i remember a few places on earth thought to be roamed by yet and this is where the scientists from around the globe have come for the largest expedition of its kind since the nineteenth fifties to set out what's never been done before to finally catch the

creature. but first we go to get blessing from baselines indigenous inhabitants and at least their spiritual support. shaman and doesn't have any doubts i'm not shocking to tell you that but yes he does exist. encouraged we continue our journey the path goes through impassable tiger fake it never has a human step food here before but perhaps an altogether larger and harriott creature has in the hunt for the evidence every minor detail becomes important ranches twisted like this are believed to be a key clue to the his existence the scientists say it could not have been done by enemies as they don't have hands of fingers to do and humans cannot do it this way

either as they are just not strong enough the deeper we go into the forest the more so cold markers we come across to the gods in the middle of a virgin tiger forest are also high interest the participants of this expedition are saying it's not just wind falling trees the branches they say could have been put in this way deliberately by someone and now the stroke of luck we meet a local who says he saw a tall man like harry creature nearby he points the way fear him to make the journey with us. it's gnome and the monster of tiger many saw signs of its presence as if it wants us to know it exists but it doesn't want to be discovered. but takes protection must go on to explore say chances are very high to me to get over there in the cave unless our shelter or at least

discover some traces of this creature so let's go there if the snowman or at least new signs of its existence are discovered common knowledge the start of these creatures could deliver a blow to the many skeptics and sure enough the clues emerge there is what seems to be. the talk back even suggesting but certainly not a bad the scientists agree while remaining cautious. of jumping to conclusions but this is a beautiful surface for which for tracking and there's only that one interesting when you're uncertain that you are right there. is another right. bigfoot playing hopscotch should like to see a left foot. best the left one has never been discovered and celebrations on hold these are either the real thing or they're convenient props to make a very good story but i wouldn't be quick to determine which of those two

alternatives is the truth without further study the study that'll take a while could provide cost iran proof of the yet is existence but there are plenty here who want to be held in their breath. even if you bring them snow men dead or alive the skeptics will say that's a pathology or mutation or it was a case in the usa it is covered a strange body all covered with fur the military helicopter flew took it and we never heard about it since then i think this could be explained by an impotent including financial impotence of the academic science them vicious expeditions seems to have those involved going in circles and so it seems that until concrete evidence is found the discovery of big food remains a big feat narration ocean r.t. reported from siberia. turning now to some other stories making headlines across
