this story that blast all our russian soldiers walk at launches from a french space space center complex carrying the first sat nav system to break the dominance of america's g.p.s. . also president image of unleaded is cooling on the strictly business logic in its energy dealings with russia more and that's in twenty two minutes of business. just after three pm here in the russian capital and you're watching our t.v. now libya is starting a new page in its history following be killing of ousted dictator colonel moammar gadhafi his burial has been a delayed after the u.n. called for an investigation into how he died gadhafi was reportedly shot in a crossfire during an assault on his hometown of sirte but the footage of his

lifeless and broken body was so graphic that some are wondering why it was broadcast for the public to see artie's other bennett takes a look. this frenzied mob is about as far as it gets from a trial at the hague. but the death of gadhafi is now being cheered around the world yes we came we saw our he died there. even by those who champion democratic justice. people in libya today have an even greater chance of to this news of building themselves a strong and democratic future i'm proud of the role that britain has played in helping them to bring that about and i pay tribute to the bravery of the libyans who've helped to liberate their country we will help them we will work with them a long way from cameron's insistence that gadhafi be put on trial n.c.c. fighters were even dissuaded from the shoot to kill policy agreeing in august

they'll take him alive i don't think you've got a particular trial. in any case but i mean nevertheless the what is basically i guess a kind of summary execution of what may well have been a summary execution is a kind of fairly barbaric into what i believe was a very barbaric operation from the start and as a side you know this was not this was never supposed to be about regime change this night of operation but that's that's really what's been the outcome of it the backslapping has been fuelled by this gruesome footage of gadhafi his body splashed across headlines pleaded for the world and the people power is not going to be put back here in libya thanks to the u.s. and its nato allies this video shows get there he was still alive when captured but clearly that didn't last long some suggest an execution and question why this is now being applauded hearing he was assassinated after he was caught one that this is a very handy else crime against one that man and the other public will see it as such

i've talked to people who dislike or dislikes. the way he was killed they think this tells us something about the moral of the so-called revolutionaries this is also shared by many on twitter there are several posts here already concerned about the coverage questioning the need for such graphic images and why they tator or not is being reported with such jubilation the images have been labelled horrific this tweet says the b.b.c. wouldn't have used the images for anyone else another suggestion to having a competition sally bercow a prominent activist in the u.k. says she sees where the same wasn't done for bin laden back then a bomber refused to release the images saying it could incite more violence or be used as propaganda but for gadhafi the vultures are too quick to bennett's r.t. . let's get more on this from international consultant and author adriana salvucci

joining us live from when osiris mr assad how do you view this this mood of celebration of some leaders over the violent death of gadhafi. well and this is a message for the whole world i don't think this is just about libya we are seeing how i think hillary clinton secretary of state of the united states expressed it very clearly on c.b.s. news when she said we came we saw he does need and then started laughing this is a message to the world of how this new world order model actually works well when we decide to take early regina we do so with the utmost violence and it's a whole model based on for well we only knew speak so to speak truth a target a role a country both calling it a rogue state literally support local terrorists and call them freedom fighters will they bring death and destruction upon civilians and we call the u.n. sanctions when they spread lies and call it the international community's opinion

expressed by the western media then be invade and control the country and call it liberation and finally the. steal advertising oil and call it foreign investment and reconstruction colorado at the end of the day now western powers are hiring a democratic care for libya now but when we look back when when saddam hussein was captured in that two thousand and three the us also thought it was all over but in fact it had only just begun do you think it could be the same for libya. absolutely it's going to be even worse let's not forget that saddam hussein his country was invaded and destroyed over what a half million people dead because in november two thousand and two only six months earlier he had decided to sell his or euros or not and dollars and i think one of the reasons why gadhafi has his country has been of libya has been made and he has been killed because he had planned to introduce the gold dinar as a golden currency that could very easily have become

a major currency at least in north africa and in the oil market don't forget libya has the ninth largest oil reserves in the world and the main oil reserve in all of africa so i think this definitely smells of oil definitely smelt of greed on the part of western companies as exxon british petroleum and toto and that they are just using this new speak as i say to try to justify that they have supported the worst terrorist probably because of the white house had to palliate easy in france and in ten downing street we also have very high class terrorists and mafioso running those countries and the better part of the world all right and another worry that has been voiced by several people in the run up to what's happening right now is sectarian violence if libya does turn into an uncontrollable zone of of the sectarian violence who will be held accountable and who should be held accountable well clearly the united states france britain and nato should be held accountable in any country libya included egypt every other country there is always

about a half of the population that is against the ongoing government that definitely we've seen. in libya but what about the wall street protesters in the united states what about feet very violent protests in london a few weeks ago what about her run this police repression in athens should we also be invading bombing greece the united kingdom and the united states because of the way they are handling their own internal divisions ok and just very quickly i mean you did mention it earlier but just a quick answer to this do you think the rebel assistive victory in libya will mark the end of may to his interest in that country. definitely not to this is just the beginning this is part of the global regime change and i would say all right alert sort of in israel or my in my in my region for bolivia and for ecuador and definitely red alert for syria and for iran this is the kind of democracy that the united states britain and france want for the whole world right thanks very much

for your thoughts their international consultant and author in genocide which we thank you. now many libyans are celebrating the death of a dictator and western leaders are hailing a transition to democracy president is going to check out reports that may not be the next step for libya. hillary clinton on a surprise visit to tripoli days before the killing of the ousted libyan leader where she was quoted as saying the u.s. hopes to see could killed or captured soon raise the captured scenario might have put could off in the toppled egyptian leaders true or those of iraq's saddam hussein but a trial over common could argue no doubt here and even more controversy thanks to those very congenial assured the big you're going to notice for us if you went to the hague you would spill the beans of belt all the dirty deals there are to stuff a real politic between the west in a developing country like libya nobody wanted that levy and transitional government

officials say colonel could die if he was cornered in a grain underneath the road in open countryside near the city of sirte please don't shoot was allegedly heard at the site many point out similarities to the capture of saddam hussein he was discovered in a small underground pulled concealed next to farm buildings near his own hometown but unlike sadam who was captured alive by u.s. forces colonel gadhafi was reportedly shot dead by a leader in transitional authorities not without the help of the u.s. and american defense official claimed a u.s. predator drone. on with the french fighter jet hit could our face convoy thursday morning as they were trying to escape effectively handing them over to the libyan forces on the ground there are still unanswered questions about what happened to. the how was he killed. but clearly i think. for external intervention and all of nato.

pump unable to achieve their objectives nato's u.n. mandate was to protect libyan civilians but it quickly became to get rid of gadhafi and prop up a government which is now in power only thanks to the support of the allied forces and i think we'll see. not a new democracy in libya but a new reorganization of the libyan political and economic. institutions to the benefit of those who brought the national transition council to power it will be for the benefit of the united states oil companies for the benefit of the british and the french and perhaps the italian oil companies they're the big winners here in the meantime western leaders are celebrating libya's transition to democracy without putting a single u.s. service member on the ground we achieved our objectives what the u.s. president did not mention in his celebre tori's speech was scores of leave guinn's killed a nato strikes widespread violations of human rights are reported in today's libya

there was no water. there is no. medication even oxygen in the hospital they don't have the situation in syria. because i have seen it i can assure you. if you send. through to the city no spirits it is disaster it's a catastrophe. libya is now brimming with weapons experts sakes premiss of most likely gotten their hands on the vast form. left on tended for levy a transition to democracy the people who are now in power there have not been chosen by the libyan people and many libyans fear that when the time comes to vote the choice will have already been made for them i'm going to check our reporting from washington r.t. . and still ahead for you this hour

anymore. there is a need as had announced an agreement on a rescue policy will be decided as will the summit this week and that's now being pushed back in its intended disagreements it's another blow to the credibility they continue to sessions that they can provide a solution. so what when people are going to becoming poorer and poorer they're seeing public sector services collapsing hospitals schools universities they're phasing out i mixed dream deterioration of their living state of their living conditions and it's not just the phrase has is with an appetite and they did they was eventually because some top government officials did applies when a position and the thing he'd say to the nation is now struggling with his conscience he's not the only one speaking to police major after the protest at the start of the month tell me at the pressure teach for the riot police involved in

these events you know. it is very hard to describe the feelings of the policeman because there are two a social and professional group who are suffering by the economic measures to the government has to take me sometimes it is really hard for them to take part in these protests as working people but once more they have to take to the streets to case that playtest is even days he wanted to make that point peaceful the rest of europe and the i think it's going to be watching this very closely because this isn't just a problem that affects great it is a situation that affects the entire year right so you can see what the people in the country right now willing to go a thing. the people here again wait. now be ready to listen. don't forget that you can get more of our team on our website r t v dot com and here's a look at what's waiting for you right now is the ear of a member it's for holocaust victims in lithuania the country is accused of hunting

claims the serbs in northern kossovo made concessions to broker a peaceful solution to the crisis we're still attacked by foreign peacekeepers. they're not going to stop now that's for sure it's just a matter of who will be more stubborn the serbs who are defending their own land or the nato forces here from who knows where serbs have tried to negotiate there even though they've even tried to give concessions in the sense that they're willing to let supply convoys and supplies the nato troops what they're not willing to do is. so called cost them. officials from the border between call civil war and the rest of serbia and this is something that they're not going to back away from so this is why we can expect more conflict because obviously nato is acting as the infantry of . the government in prishtina there isn't going to be a membership that's the biggest issue of all i mean it's does anyone think it's

realistic for a place like also to be part of. two thirds of the heroin coming from the understanding to your approach to fall for the it's a place with the highest crime rate probably in the world capital of human smuggling or human organ smuggling and trafficking this place would never get into the. v.a. you obviously has no plans of including serbia there either so this is just a game it's just membership is just being used as a means of it for extract the concessions from belgrade and of giving the albanians normal average albanians the illusion that they're actually going to get something down the road when it when it will be much easier for them to just come to peace with their serbian neighbors and remember you can always follow our correspondent in the cost of all media phenomenon as twitter stream is online bringing you the very latest developments from the troubled region and in her last week she writes that the a serb leader at the barricades says he for it could use water cannons to disperse
