dictator now this was a just released as colonel gadhafi dies from his injuries after being shot by government troops during his capture earlier on thursday that is comes from the city of sirte which has been free from gadhafi loyalists out for lots of fighting. one dead and dozens injured as violence breaks out on the streets of athens while the greek parliament debates tough and sturdy met for its. peace and breakers nato forces clashed with serbs ignore the cost of over control over a disputed border area which the serbs consider their territory. don't do business russia and the netherlands have signed a deal with building a new world terminal a presence at some point in the in twenty minutes. just after ten pm here in the russian capital you're watching r.t.
2:01 pm
i would begin with a breaking news story from libya where government officials have confirmed the death of colonel gadhafi the news comes from the city of sirte which has reportedly been overrun by government forces and now why you are looking on your screen at footage of a wounded colonel being taken captive now officials say gadhafi had serious injuries to both his legs the latest we've heard from the national transitional council is that the colonel has died from his wounds on a bit off the songs has also reportedly been killed in sirte but the influential saif al islam his eldest son has reportedly been captured alive with details still trickling in from libya there and out more analysis from a political science professor good law from paris mr get out france led a foreign military intervention efforts in and libya and the fresh air france chief says that the country's planes fired on a convoy carrying a daffy is a colonel's death now a cause for celebration in paris well actually in the streets. celebration but you know. of course for celebration. as you know there were periods when prince
2:02 pm
and the west generally were quite close to it they were in cahoots with him different moments there are moments of tensions moments of cooperation. but. the people of libya. and everyone is trying to run to be rejoicing and to claim that. they were responsible for the demise of can operate in which in the case of need to force is. true nato did play a major military part in. the picture of the rebels ok you're talking about celebrations there at least on a political level and also the mainstream media had jumped on at this news of the reported death of gadhafi they're calling it a marvelous success well do you think that this is really an event to celebrate is taking a little deeper into what has happened well actually the circumstances of his death not yet known there are conflicting reports about whether it was killed by the
2:03 pm
current government or the people were called insurgents before or whether his convoy was attacked by need reports this so we don't know for sure how he died and of course it would have been much better to try him but it's a new way of fighting was you know a few weeks ago the mistreatment killed the guy in yemen and then before that he was bin laden who was needed it's clear nato doesn't want to be embarrassed by leaders that it's supported different in the past and it was opposed in a court of law. far more efficient to kill the opponents rather known to prosecute and to give them the possibility of expressing views third which. the west has not been in the same position in relation to these
2:04 pm
leaders and us following about logic at that you're saying that the embarrassment so that would have come out if gadhafi had had been able to speak out so are you saying that they are happy with the outcome is this what they were gunning for to begin with. well it's difficult to be and their minds but most probably yes there's a there's a pattern now you kill all the benito's other regimes that you're opposed to and of course you know the regime could up he was no no dictator i was a murderer and so on no doubt a very bright but there were moments when various countries in the west there it was to get up early in two thousand and seven i think it was he came to paris and spent a week there it gets just stand side by side at major hotels so there were moments when there were business dealings with the regime even most. security footprint was sort to him so if you talk with whom you work it's killed instead of trying of
2:05 pm
court of law because he cannot be beyond the complexity of your relationship with him. that people enjoy saying everything is covered up and everyone rejoices in officially what it means thing of course is not to reveal the very complex interactions then it always existed between libya and the west. and well let's go back again to what has always been said i need to know that the goal of this intervention is essentially to protect civilians but now that things have changed get out the has reportedly been killed would that render the pretext of sports i think civilians you know protecting from whom this time so what gives under contract to stay in libya well officially nature will say. the humanitarian operation successful but basically it was a military intervention under side one camp in a civil war now discount as one. later remains and very much.
2:06 pm
it's new government behaves. and it's not sure that things would be very smooth and easy by now of course the official. alibi. it was an alibi humanitarian intervention cannot be invoked anymore because there is no gadhafi regime now it remains to be seen whether the new though it is going to be in the country still tribal violence and whether there are human rights abuses prosecuted or denounced. ok well thanks very much there live from paris political asylum officer appear again no thanks again all right well we would like to know what you think about the reported death of credibility and today we're asking you with all the what happens now in libya and so far the most popular response is less guarded oilfields surrounded by chaos will
2:07 pm
emerge years of painful and slow recovery kong second and some of you say the colonel's death will lead to a green so many police and fire will control elsewhere now only four percent of you say election reforms the spirit of things you had to r.t. dot com cast your vote. by going to greece now clashes broke out in central athens between rival groups of protesters during a second day of mass demonstrations against a new round of austerity measures being debated in parliament authorities say one person died while dozens were injured as more than fifty thousand demonstrators gathered in the city's main square outside parliament r.t. sarfraz reports now from outlets. i get it back very quickly all skintight the slats we got. in the crowd we're not sure exactly what that thing off but everyone just trying. to keep. the riot police. oh really true for. all of us all of them of the muscle defeat and maybe tomorrow.
2:08 pm

2:09 pm
europe and setting up its own satellite navigation system promising to become a rival of america's g.p.s. . to northern kossovo now where nato peacekeepers have unleashed tear gas and serbs pushing them away from a disputed border crossing by the serbs have barricaded the area claiming it belongs to them as they still don't consider kossovo an independent country that is what is there with all the latest for us now. we are now at the scene of the tensions of this tense of between soldiers ok for the nation that peacekeeping force here in kosovo and the cost to insert civilians the soldiers have come here earlier in the morning as you can see on armored vehicles right least three of them behind these barricades all as you can see looking frightening in full riot gear to try to remove the barricades that plastic serves erupted here three months ago but the ethnic serbs living here in kosovo have gathered here to prevent the
2:10 pm
peacekeepers from doing that from taking the barricades away as they say nato as well as k. four here in the region known as hate peacekeepers but they are exceeding their mandate the u.n. security council resolution number twelve forty four the only legal reason for them to be here but they're right now rather it's just in pristina in installing its institutions over the course of a over. the territory that mixture to see as their heartland and north as an independent state they don't recognize possible two thousand and eight self-proclaimed independence and don't recognize the authorities and laws and institutions from time to time the peacekeepers are using loudspeakers addressing to the crowds and calling on that to disperse and threatening otherwise who would use and from time to time they are using these tools which is happening gas pepper spray this is something like a tear gas it has the same impact on human beings as the tear gas has but serbs are
2:11 pm
not ready to surrender as they say they're protecting themselves with masses using special liquid to wash their eyes and they say they will be here till the very end as well as it is needed to protect their rise from time to time the leaders of the serbs here are dressed in crowd calling on. to remain calm and peaceful as much as possible but as you can see the situation may look stable but this is very dramatic this is an absolutely no win situation and tension is very high and it's boiling. all the time last month when he came forward tried to remove the barricades by force they used tear gas against protesters and rubber bullets even at least seven civilians have been injured and this time as well fears are growing that it could be violent and they could be blood and victims from both
2:12 pm
sides let's get some reaction from the costs of insight now let's cross live to speak to our state secretary oliver to find all this mystery but over. claims that its forces in kosovo are there to maintain stability yet we're seeing pictures of pepper spraying and tear gassing unarmed serbs is this helping at all in keeping the peace unfortunately the queue for the action although everybody is aware they cannot do anything by force they have been offered free access to the gate one hundred thirty one but they want to gauge also the exhibition that's another police and justice michel which is good given our beautiful more than three months on the streets and just in the very last moment they want to greengage serb mayors in the north didn't accept that pay for just a walkout from the meeting and now the four decided to do his unilateral action by
2:13 pm
using the armored forces there's no chance to win this battle simply the serbs are resisting peacefully. against the peaceful resistance. no any kind of that advantage ok let's look at some allegations now ethnic serbs living and possible their claim that they are subject to violence racial profiling and also because it was determined to kick them out what do you say to these allegations. i don't know this is totally. i cannot simply understand the way where from this allegations are coming because of serbs have been over into the cave for free access to the gate they didn't use their wireless they just go for them the long discussion if it is needed but they offered a dialogue like a way to overcome this situation from my point of view it's clear they've worked to the side again you know and they are just trying to indoors because the war is going. to the north what is not acceptable for the huge majority of the people in
2:14 pm
the north this we have to say that like united ninety five percent of the people in the north are the serbs and they are not recognizing the courts or independence are ok it's been over ten years since the war in kosovo but we are seeing at the end dressed in orthanc cost of the showing no signs of abating actually months ago and now again what effort is your side in making to pacify the situation. the single way is to get back to the table and try to negotiate about all the possibility we will not never recognize the independence day but it means immediately some other steps we are not allowed to that also it just has to be in the north the dialogue which is open and then the which is broken exactly break a breakthrough in the in the grass and have to continue again and the dialogue is was able only if this equation is going to be brought prior to the twenty fifth of july when the british send our those forces to the north that means no weiland no unilateral steps and we have to have the spur to make it
2:15 pm
a space where the political dialogue and the some possible outcome which could be good for the outside if it is not suitable for there was sight that's not really sustainable in the long run ok let's look at some of some facts and will we have high profile consequences wanted for war crimes at the hague they remain at large while all of the talks are going war criminals have been arrested and even taken to the hague do you feel that justice is being served equally on both sides. yeah suddenly we consider that like injustice because the way or the serbia decided to deliver a demand he. will suspect. many people suspected of war crimes in the another and other side we have the representatives or dare i say some prominent political leaders in pristina which are accused for the very serious crimes but it's only the national community entire international community is not acting in the same way and i just hope that we will finally realize that this kind of a one sided he with his crowd will not provide us with
2:16 pm
a political stability here and i consider that to. have to do something to discover you know who is behind you who is the all ethnically what you are good crime is one thing i did i and two thousand the later on otherwise that's the that's the just make it impossible for such international mission for exist and to cooperate with the community all right thanks very much for your thoughts there are a lot from it's possible that was state secretary all over ivanovich thanks very much an. artist many of the national is on the ground in kossovo and she's been updating us with all the latest on air and online as well if you have to our twitter page to get all the latest from her and also can all the new videos by our you tube channel.
