two pm here in moscow thanks for being with r.t. international review watching around the world that we bring up to date on the top stories is a busy news afternoon nato peacekeepers reportedly fired tear gas at ethnic serbs and the disputed border in northern kosovo the troops of this month in a pair of case set up by locals after they failed to do it themselves will bring up their months or it throughout the afternoon another developing story as well greece now into the second day of its biggest general strike in years which is already seeing violence and clashes with riot police protesters are promising another show of might outside parliament where lawmakers will later take a final vote on more punitive cuts to services that are correspondents and they will bring you live updates all afternoon. also live pictures now coming through from so colonel gadhafi is how the reportedly fall into the new libyan leadership

fights is these are the latest shots to see celebrate or a short simply by them this is what's happening right now there is a city that of course had been besieged for weeks it all happened in the final push within about ninety minutes this thursday morning we hear thousands of civilians that of course have been trapped in the crossfire with the new regime regarding it is the symbolic last step to victory of the gadhafi watching that very closely we'll bring you up to date throughout the afternoon of course again. up next though we discussed russia's hopes of joining the world trade organization that's a story it's been going on for a long time with a man who's at the very heart of the country's negotiations. that's one of the thank you very much for being with us today. so with the latest

round of talks between russia and georgia have failed well georgia wants international monitoring of cargo and good start will enter the predefined chord trade corridor of subsets in the pasok so that i want your membership is so important for russia why can't you add international long to work through it. is very important for us so i will be exhuming to the government show which is the truth or abusing for us the requests which we receive from georgia does not go over too well it's such a girls. we have proposed to many occasions. creek so to be sure that trade you sure said the same as we did we. were tremendous but occasionally it was not. overjoyed with the requests we received probably your. rules also the next investor to russia your celestron some of paul said that united states stop that switzerland has media on the talks with russia

and georgia came up with a pretty balanced solution why was it rejected it's a christian community or i think it's a question to releasing you because we have not rejected this proposal of rejected . jos are we prepared to work on third base but we are not there. probably if you go next meeting it will. all come more closely because it's possible for st grievance a bit so not that we have not rejected can watch so actually enter w t o without noting this approval. it's an interesting question. if there isn't the consensus in respect of our session in this case that there is a percentage of who. who practice it was used only once in the history of the butcher because it would be used in the case of pressure

or not it's a decision of numbers should be taken well there's been so many allegations for the longest time when russia will listen. but we premier putin said that he's very hopeful that will happen towards the end of the year i want to hear from you what is your realistic estimate because we've been hearing for a very next loans and of the year more balanced estimates say three to five years what's your estimate that three to five i think it's to much. should we are in the negotiations we have concluded. almost everything we are supposed to be straight so we have very few technical questions which are still outstanding. that we need even not a few months or two a few weeks or even days in order to be able to resolve all of them the time table we should have we probably work usually to.

session is very tied we have to completely fall in discussions. the second super target a formal meeting should take place. mid november so we have a schedule and we would like to implement it so soon as we do it we will be closer to the. before and also putting that only obstacle in the way of russia becoming a member of government where are the political officials say you are gay agree. that actually this whole process is hostage to politics rather than anything else i suppose this argument by fact we have completed negotiations for market access. six all countries in the world and after that. we.

are many different things and what was not connected. with trade politics. it was a mixture sometimes of a mixture of course accession of such a big country russia it's always there was between trade and politics which are. normally normally isolated so from politics you know it was always possible but how does that make you feel when you're an economist or a negotiator over economy how does that make you feel that you also have to deal with politics in this whole process never do politics trade negotiator like my colleagues renegotiated three issues but political influence through this process so we again we never received directives to make you say politics in the woods or titian but sometimes this session stopped.

because of political developments which. never connected with trade i also want to quote proscar limmy who is the head of the w t o when he was speaking about their own solution he sat that there is definitely a paralysis in a negotiating function of w t o what exactly is broken and is that an additional challenge for russia i think. their federal member what happened to their current bloc around the conversations. we have not for any particular problems except to be . interest so many members to put them all concessions russian troop withdraw from the us as much as possible it was normal that resisted by all means that links the process but i don't think it was a real. our fission were substantially different from a position of trying to predict churn this phrase more with certain problems and

then there's also a whole other ball of questions that arise. what will happen after russia becomes the number probably for example the critics say that russia is a session to this organization will kill its chances to bill a modern industry how do you sponsor that we do not seem to this is my hope and these are very critics believe me for the simple reason. aim is to compete with an additional to cut it's impossible to do. economy being connected other parts of the groups and market access to other markets so we for many years. before i mean it doesn't appear as a part of the world come to me but we played different roles because we were not members of the action so we think that in order to be successful in there is no

decision of economy we have to be into it bring to us much more benefits i'll give you a process example for example last year russia had to make available two and a close one billion dollars of extra cash for agricultural producers because of the drought well extreme measures like this able once winter doubling for for example why not. play a reasonable amount of subsidies. to. pay to farmers and we want. next in the next five years certainly double sure it's not about prohibition of subsidies you may continue to provide subsidies to farmers but subject to certain rules and. absolutely sure. if you do it in a clear way you do it in

a conflict if you future obligations that at least the experience of many other countries united states or many others which make an employer would continue to subsidize the farmers that's in their way which is not conflicting with obligations are their only interest is that will suffer or florists more than others once will become a member of the you know well of course those which are connected with exploitation of goods and services real good more than those which are. there's a problem for domestic market because we of course expect that competition will grow but if you will start doing so we have a transitional period. for people for markets and at the end of this tradition period so we will continue to. have the right to implement. i would not say hi to this where tears reach would be enough to protect. industries

from injury. caused by employers and also how critical is the jackson venning and i'm going to the u.s. russia relationship right now because the u.s. in fact doesn't have a unplowed every month and russian or so who benefits from instrumentation more it was never implemented. of course belief as you know for twenty years or so at some point it should. be withdrawn because it's unfair to continue to have it for russia but it has no real trade a precondition for us. of course would support. approaches from sort. of. the issue for us congress to decide like a general question to do you think that maybe financial problems in the united states and the european union well actually result in rising protectionism all around the

globe nobody knows what will happen so at least there are different scenarios. be true maybe maybe maybe not so what. we should expect is a this is a position should not be connected with the growth of protectionism because of charities. in washington or in brussels. so tribute part was very much committed to retreat and say i understand the risks which say rates of protection it. may cost to build economy finally russia leaves the world and opens to the world an enormous market you always wonder is the world aware of that and is it ready to get by just the russian market. where we are not close in this market but we we have. negotiated market they exist through russian markets for many

years really seeing good through the huge interest. trade us and invest two c. has a small cuts. being based. be more open and more transparent and we have the same interest in foreign markets industry to. places towards the to expose their goods and services so i think and speak of in some places i regret some of the thank you very much for this and thank you.

it. is just a life long dream for many. months brave real loom is not enough to steer the ship. in. genuine love history are required and people who revive the craft are sailing through the centuries.

the nato peacekeepers reportedly five take that ethnic serbs other disputed holder of the troops. the dismantling the barricades set up by locals after they failed to do it themselves. greece is into the second biggest general strike in years and which has already seen violence and clashes with riot police protesters are promising another show of might outside parliament where lawmakers will take the final vote on more punitive cuts to services to record their. hometowns it will be called to the leadership libyan fighters these are live pictures you're seeing coming through but only wrong we sort of break through fire into the essence of what got a little bit now but that's what's happening in sirte right now a city that of course had been perceived for weeks a final could push came in about ninety minutes this morning thousands of civilians of course trapped in the crossfire with the new regime regarding it is the symbolic last step to victory over gadhafi. there are headlines on to say now the sports news and the latest on the tennis going on moscow at the moment it's

a lovely day there first plenty more to. hello there thanks for watching the sport and these are the headlines by letting roos mischances is a neutral to two we are in the champions league. while a lot of my colleagues look forward to their hundredth european fiction with the europa league showdown against i. and is it fun to see it as the cardinals win the game of baseball's world series against the texas rangers. and i'll start with the tennis though because the fourth day of the kremlin cup has just got underway with plays fighting for the last quarter final spots and believe that we are has just won her all russian battle with a katherina. in straight sets so it isn't enough room to the quarter finals i can see that many get involved but it's also closing in on

a place in the last day she set up against suck up all over these guys who are in the second set they're in action later as the three seed money and bartoli he's fighting for ranking points to reach the season ending w.p.a. championships her opponent is. and fellow russians but on the course knows about to compete for a place in the last state against the state cannot put wrong about look at the main exaction they will start their games a little later on with sixteen russian dimitris just soon are they going to be in beneteau in faces top seed bank eighty percent of which there jeremy chardy and alexander. are in action while luxembourg she plays for the call schreiber. thought when i was any coach leach on the split he says he was disappointed not to have claimed all three points again shots are in the champions league this side drawing to see in ukraine last night it was an eventful game pennies were mine sure a call of missed a penalty after just ten minutes scored an equaliser after shot hard taking the

lead through brilliant and off the. louise adler but the home side in france again it's a visit scored twenty second in the second half for a share of points to see how it finished twenty states second in the group at the halfway stage behind how well he drew away porto one one chelsea meanwhile stuck five past belgian side racing games the biggest winner of the night fernando torres getting to the goals at stamford bridge that is paul goes to him in four games chelsea now league group piece by a point by is a good reason to go to see one when i was palencia and police both under a speedboat thinks he's killing myself. and i'm very very happy with the performance and some of. the commitment of the team was a game that everybody expects you to and you know a good thing when the surprise is. just around the corner and we want to keep the concentration was going almost. to get

a good performance and good results elsewhere defending champions barcelona enjoyed it so we'll win over pretoria pills and this funny side stay seconding group page though behind ac milan. at the san siro faster enjoyed seventy eight percent of the possession in their match. scoring the goals for them but perhaps the biggest surprise was that messi didn't find the net considering has scored sixteen times this season already the coach pep guardiola thought that was the positive. rejectionism media really. played some tremendous froogle. doesn't work. that shift we have got to learn when to do new sensurround she doesn't score and i wish to continue for many years. and are still find themselves at the top of group aircraft of one there when i'm asked say i ran with the winner in the second minute of stoppage time marsyas second but. after their three one win over to see

her daughter it is a pretty sight there at the top of her as boss are some going to believe his side deserved to be where they are after last night's performance. graphic of course. i don't think it was interesting that. in fairness very different. but you can see the last fifteen minutes he created some changes and. of course you were we were wrong for because we kept going on to the europa league now look i might say for make a bit of history receiving they take on great side i athens and what we've done what will be the hundredth european fixture for the russians with the build up its orbit then yeah. look i'm mighty far on the milestone there is this europa league clash at home too i will begin number one hundred in european competitions for the muscovite side although the railway mills head coach says they can see

a role cleaves this should not affect his clearest motivation. it's a good number for the club no doubt but it doesn't really matter much in terms of motivation we treat every game as a crucial one because all the place take it as an owner to defend the colors of the club. however not all of them will be able to do so if the true cause of a stadium with at least forty members of the squad said to sit on the sidelines and listen to those you know we've got a number of injured players and to be honest that is a problem but still the star us of and a story from our sidelines and tubby's key is just recovery and also i'm not sure if they said it will be able to help us in the front line but will try to get away with those who are fit all. the second placed hosts have won one of their two group games two for having suffered their first defeat under the poor to get skill which begins on their left three weeks ago and adding three points of whom it is the

greek side who are boredom and have failed to claim a point so far is definitely a must for local rag. last of the two games in this competition of course. in the new global game of course everything games. i suppose next in this game but it is not. what people are looking to celebrate their european jubilee in style although it's a safe bet i have different plans for thursday night. on earth the region . bottoming group and have a few selection problems of their own they lost nearly strike edge of the johnson's were a broken leg over the weekend though they still held city royals olympiacos to a one one draw to stay joint top of the domestic league however they are still without a point in the early days into group leaders and

a leg and third place from austria and their coach outlined what needs to be done. there are several key points we should stick to if we are true locomotive these are still focused on the whole of the magic especially when it comes to defending and then read and aggressive a lot of resistance and eventually take three points of the law we mark rasch a strike over a man public chamber will make a rare start at tottenham on the north london club host joint group a league is the rubin than on thursday public anger has spent just seventeen minutes on the pitch in the premier league this season but he's been a regular starter in the europa league games and netted equaliser in last month's three one win at home to shamrock rovers tottenham a behind rubin only on goal difference so the winner would take the out right lead in this group and spurs boss redknapp is wary of the russian side of joe dream watching video all the videos on america so he's up to speed. they see their good

side will organize. second seemed a very good team. but it wasn't a good night in europe for russian basketball teams only because than they lost their yearly go. c.n.n.'s seventy nine points to seventy one only excited dominated most of the game and were thirty five twenty eight to henry the mccance jump shot here. the pace the side the thirty points in the night and the russians held the marriage forty four forty three hart timely but wanted bashing when the head soon after the restart and when marco let go by she banged on the italians with sixty four fifty five runs and went on to win seventy nine seventy one. and the other game in great day last night turkish side got a task right got the better of a second and ingrid paid their wins for tyler's without anti-cholesterol. the
