a face that raises questions as to what the next phase will be the grounds as we know for the nato mission in libya have kept changing throughout the whole campaign from stopping a potential mess a korean leader to killing qaddafi now nato has many times been accused of violating the u.n. mandate the announced goal was to protect civilians but scores of leaders if you die the needle strikes the country is a voice now it's also brimming with weapons which is of great concern and danger not only for the libyans but for the whole of the your national community and we know russia is now proposing a plan aimed at making it up its military stockpiles secure a plan that will provide help prevent the smuggling of libyan weapons because it's just too much of a danger and for more on that here's my colleague and he said now we. the war is over but the weapons are loaded.
2:04 pm
human rights watch has expressed grave concern about left arm in libya their number one fear warehouses to hold ground to air new found which could in the wrong hands take down passenger aircraft it's through made so i made two allies in the region which these weapons have been flooding libya and also libya is quite well armed country anyway the population has has quite a lot of light weapons in his possession and those white my pins are becoming a heavy burden on the national transitional council now relying on an army of former rebels for security we try to control the bends and we take if there is somebody has work and we ask him if he has but there is a street like this we are not. the. checkpoints have been set up across tripoli to check that those carrying weapons have proper documentation and those who do have the paperwork are being called on by the national transition
2:05 pm
committee to return their arms the question now is what if they go and what does that mean up for pulse gadhafi libya and its stability and now as you can see is being secured here everything's under control and the only word things that you will make some we can is a how to give back the weapons but we see something very different i ask this has commander what the plan is to disarm the population. i swear i don't know. i think we have some of the c.b.i. men who were killed. and a makeshift arms collection center that covers one neighborhood in the capital we are showing. you these are the weapons people brought to me today not many. not down one walk in tripoli and you'll see twice as many hierarchy. so you know how many weapons there are in libya i can dislike it with incentives yeah i think
2:06 pm
everybody have. some think the fun of arms in the country could spell disaster ahead in the vacuum after good daffy impulse from pope chaos as proof i doubt this is fadel how. what you have now in libya is schools of armed factions who have no respect for each other and who have no respect for may through actually i believe opportunistically used nato to achieve some aims and nato has been foolish enough to go along with this so i think what we're going to see now is the intensification of the civil war between increasingly the factions which have overthrown because off the regime with many libyans not yet ready to say a farewell to arms against the sea which could only be good saffy with nato how is now asking the alliance to continue its mission. indication of just
2:07 pm
how unstable the country is and he said no way artspeak tripoli. so with libya declared liberated and nato ordered to move on a rocky path to stability still lies ahead for human rights activists want to know whether the price the libyan people had to pay for a future without good afy is justified. it's a high human coaster this is a high price but they need to have a good thing they don't take her with these things what's a building with said in the afghanistan what's going on in afghanistan these days and what's happened in libya is an example of you know that they are not taking care with the human situation and they are not taking care of their life for the people i think it's a high price and the high cost and the consequences of that it will continue for so long that the case of this is what they call that humanitarian intervention it's
2:08 pm
not even within the region completely it's against a human of the material i have really a real concern there the situation maybe will explode or. libya i mean internally between the tribes between a different political groups. community of. more about this big story on our website including the hunt for the remnants of gadhafi regime their online site broken legs another critical injuries the country's x. prime minister is fearing for his life he says the media is presenting his severe beating as an attempted suicide we're reading more but you can exert our team dot com tonight also the u.s. military machine made it moving out of iraq but still still be spooks in the shadows we report on by the cia is staying behind. european banks would create a write off fifty percent of the debt owed to them by greece it was decided during a version see somebody in brussels where your leaders made what many believe was the final attempt to save the euro zone a settlement was reportedly
2:09 pm
a close run thing though with the bank lobby holding out until german chancellor angela merkel threatened letting greece default he also promises to loan athens another one hundred billion euros for the ballooning bailout funds designed to expand to a trillion euros now and the task is of course to put all that in action but you know one ran over veldts who runs two of belgium's leading business magazines told the same feelings what's been achieved simply lacks any very real sort of shape. it's just buying prime business really not the bazooka everybody has been asking for i would describe because a lot of this of course prevents for the moment that we really get to a kind of loosening escalation of the greek a gap level which is now growing in the direction of hundred and eighty percent of g.d.p. but you cannot call this a structural resolution to the difference greek problems they are a little bit afraid to really bite the bullet here because if you look at it
2:10 pm
closely there is only one solution for greece and the truth have been put on the table already several months ago for greece to leave the euro zone but that is a decision everybody's afraid of and what has for example not been discussed now with which is very much on the minds of several of the europe. leaders is that there is a huge problem brewing in portugal because this country is going down to greet the greek road quite rapidly now so if the action today on greece run immediately has to put a similar kind of action into operation with respect according go so europe's proposed people are going to need some extra foreign cash to top it up and the head of the fund is no jew to travel to china to try and attract some backing there but economists say the e.u. stranded get others to do what he should have sort of got itself plenty the hero in who's going to pay because you're talking about really in europe. this is
2:11 pm
a lot of money if i am has great now it doesn't have that money talking of the leveraging the european financial stability fund. countries like china. india even brazil to lend to your peers. if you don't have money you can sell your s.s. to raise the money or. already some what china i think given by a token amount of. your peers but pretty fun but the frame for playing a leading role because this is this is what you'll be and leadership has. even if the utility crisis plan pays off help will still take a while of course to filter down to the ground in greece and some are finding their own ways to make it through right now sarah firth reports for r.t. . they say that time is money for a country where cash is now in short supply time has taken on

to become a member it should be no it's a russia could still join if it got a majority vote which would effectively deny georgia a veto but the decision is scheduled to be taken on december the fifteenth in geneva and if russia does become a member world bank experts say the russian economy could grow by eleven percent. same with that story russia says it will need some time to consider the swiss proposals when aras from business new europe magazine says russia is likely to join the w t o even if it rejects the new terms. i think russia grossly except for poses with visitors who must face and even if they turns them it's still possible for us it's a joy without george's votes and so much as you can do it by simple majority the thing is every country that's joined so far is joined with unanimous words and so would be another black mark on russia's p.r. which they'd rather avoid it however i think is which i also have
