3:01 pm
want the mission extended to the end of the year he's gonna get you can reports from washington d.c. . the u.n. security council voted unanimously to lift the no fly zone over libya effectively meaning to and nato operations there nato has been operating all this time under the u.n. security council mandate for march now with russia's initiative the council has voted to and that mandate and complete nato operations by the end of october as we heard from marcia's and voyage to the united nations and nato is expected to fully comply with the resolution we expect the nato council to act in accordance with this decision of the security council of the united nations and to suspend its operation at midnight. so we're told that indeed a new chapter is being opened in libya. and the libyan people will be able to take advantage of the new situation to build a new libya they desire the vote comes at
3:02 pm
a time when the head of libya's transitional government asks nato to prolong its air missions through this ember and add military advisers on the ground the nato ministers had been scheduled to meet on wednesday in brussels to finalize the termination date of the operations but they abruptly postponed the meeting until friday presumably to weigh in on libyan interim government's request for an extension u.n. diplomats here were saying this latest resolution lifts the no fly zone is an end of a phase that raises questions as to what the next phase will be the ground as we know for the nato mission in libya have kept changing throughout the whole campaign from stopping a financial mess a korean leader to killing qaddafi nato has many times been accused of violating the u.n. mandate the announced goal was to protect civilians but scores of leading civilians died in nato strikes the country is in ruins now it's also grieving with weapons which is of great concern and danger not only for the libyans but for the whole of
3:03 pm
the your national community and we know russia is now proposing a plan aimed at making could obvious 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 fully loaded. human rights watch has expressed grave concern about leftover armor in libya their number one fear warehouses thought to hold ground to air missiles which could in the wrong hands take down passenger aircraft it's through mate so our nato allies in the region which these weapons have been flooding libya and also libya is quite a world country anyway the population has has quite a lot of light weapons in its possession and those light weapons are becoming a heavy burden on the national transitional council now relying on an army of
3:04 pm
former rebels for security that would try to control the bends if there is somebody who has worked and we ask him if he has a third is a free for this we are not. 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 committee to return their arms the question now what if they don't and what does that mean up for pulse gadhafi libya and its stability and now as you can see is being secured here everything is under control and the only word thing that will make some weekend is a how to give back the weapons but we see something very different i asked this head commander what the plan is to disarm the population. i swear i don't know if you look. at that we have some of the sea.
3:05 pm
and a makeshift arms collection center that covers one neighborhood in the capital we are shown. to these other weapons people brought to me today not many. walk down one block in tripoli and you'll see twice as many firearms. so you know how many weapons there are in libya i can dislike have to have incentives yeah i think everybody have a weapon some think the front of arms in the country could spell disaster ahead in the vacuum after gadhafi impulse revolt chaos as group fight out of this just battles of power. what you have now in libya is schools of armed factions who have no respect for each other and who have no respect for mates or actually either they've opportunistically used mater to achieve some aims and nato has been foolish enough to go along with this so i think
3:06 pm
what we're going to see now is an intensification of the civil war between increasingly the factions which have overthrown but the gadhafi regime with many libyans not yet ready to say a farewell to arms the end to the sea which could only be daffy with nato how is now asking the alliance to continue its mission a vivid indication of just how unstable the country is and he's now a r t tripoli. so as libya declared liberated nato order to move on a rocky path to stability still lies ahead human rights activists want to know whether the price the libyan people had to pay for a future without gadhafi is justified. it's a high human kolstad it's a high price but they need to do the things they don't take her with these things what's happened in iraq with some in the not against what's going on in afghanistan
3:07 pm
these days and what's happened in libya it's an example of you know that there are medical care with the human situation where they are not taking care with 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 not even within the region completely it's against the human and the material i have really a real concern there the situation maybe will explode. libya i mean internally between the tribes between a different political groups. community. of course a lot more about this lowering story on our website as well including the hunt for the remnants of gadhafi is regime bed tonight broken legs another with ricky injuries but the story of the country's egg probably minister saying he's fearing for his wife saying the way the media is presenting his severe beating is wrong
3:08 pm
they're presenting it as a suicide attempt on a take a look online. dot com also this one to the u.s. military machine may be moving out of iraq soon but they will be super staying out of the shadows we got a report for you on why the cia is staying behind. european banks have agreed to write off fifty percent of the debt owed to them by greece it was decided during an emergency summit in brussels where you leaders made what many believe was the final attempt to try to save the euro that settlement was reportedly a close run thing though with the bank lobby holding out until german chancellor angela merkel threatened to let greece default the also promised to loan athens another one hundred billion euros while the ballooning bailout fund is in line now to expand to a trillion euros well now the task of course is to put all that in action you know and ran out of. runs to a belgium's leading business magazines believes what's been achieved simply lacks any sort of real punch now. it's just buying time this is really not the bazooka
3:09 pm
everybody has been asking for i would describe it as a water pistol this of course prevents for the moment that we really get to work kind of loosen ating escalation of the greek debt 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 closely there is only one solution for greece and the truth have been put on the table already several months ago that is for greece to leave the euro zone but that is a decision everybody's afraid of and one. as for example not being discussed now but which is very much on the minds of several of the european 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 one does the action today on greece one
3:10 pm
immediately has to put a similar kind of action into operation with respect to portugal so your proposed bigger bailout pot will need some extra foreign cash to top it up and the head of the fund now due to travel to china to try and attract some backing there but economists say the e.u. is trying to get others to do what he should have sorted out itself the plan he'd hero in who's going to pay because you're talking about one trillion euros and this is a lot of money if i am have right now doesn't have that money and we are talking about leveraging the european financial stability fund to. countries like china. india even brazil to lend to a d. you have pierced ability to fund if you don't have money you can sell your s.s. to raise the money or prevent already some tax what china will do it i think david by
3:11 pm
a token among. your peers that believe the fund but the frames are playing a leading role because this is this is what do you hear leadership have. even if the crisis plan pays off help will still take a while to filter down to the ground in greece but some of finding ways to try to make it through right now is 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 a whole different value the time bank quick change want to services and sometimes they give a painting lessons for free but they take your for free also somebody else is. the time banks just one of a growing number of service swapping alternatives that are providing people in greece another way to cope with the tough economic conditions services can include anything from language classes to babysitting all home cooked meals. for
3:12 pm
a country in crisis building social unity camp reeve extruding me hard price is a terrible thing he creates fear it divides people from public sector workers from private sector workers who divides richer workers to poor workers immigrant workers from home work for the party networks have been a great way of bringing together large groups of people the populace slogan here in greece now is no one's alone in the crisis organizations are arranging swap shops to exchange clothes one town in greece is even started its own bharti currency it's huge huge everything we do without money like looking after people are making things by ourselves nicky gives me and her friend alexandra he's also a member of the time bank and lesson one of the free services she provides and in exchange alexandra helps out with the gardening so the time is repaid it's an amazing way. of receiving finally by giving to the
3:13 pm
other. many greeks struggle with wage cuts tax increases and with unemployment in the country now cripplingly high there's been huge interest in the time banks and bars and networks this place is in the lead and cave in materials there's no wonder really that this idea of swapping gets in services has proven so popular it's building solidarity it's a time when the economic situation is extremely uncertain. it's not to respond to. crisis in the sense that it's going to overturn the terrible economic policies that are being posed by the troika it's giving people to feel that they can do something with the tough economic times leaving many greeks feeling worthless there is real value in projects like the time bank with the greek government drowning in debt
3:14 pm
these creative solutions are offering any support but encouragement to the people here which at a time of deep recession approving priceless commodity surface r.t. athens. with the euphoria over the deal bridge to brussels dying down a bit now the numbers of being pulled over by economists next to see if they actually add up at the end of the day one of them is our. believes that nothing's changed still fighting debt with debt. the plan is to create a one trillion euro slush fund and to not write off fifty percent of greek debts that misperception are simply going to move it around the fraudulent balance sheets that are being organized to operate together it's a debt problem that they're going to cure by adding more debt let's just have the terrorists run the world economy they're doing a fantastic job give them more weapons of mass financial destruction give them more
3:15 pm
debt it's absurd you're guaranteeing lobel financial catastrophe by letting these charlatans pose these theories that adding debt doing debt problem is going to increase stability that's insane what he said to get the message across the cause reports the deep debt load for you in fifteen minutes time on this channel tonight . fresh crushes broke out in new york during a ninety wall street march following followed brother by arrests several hundred people indeed marched in support of activists in oakland california who suffered a police crackdown earlier artie's made a poor in new york with the latest on this story for you. at least five hundred activists of occupy wall street were walking through a lower manhattan to show their solidarity with the protesters from oakland california as this back in the massive group was a walking through manhattan and there were helicopters flying overhead we saw

3:19 pm
i think without having a greater impact than it might have had in the past when you know if if if an act of excessive force by a police officer was in captured by c.b.s. nobody would ever see it the movement has shifted the discourse in this country dramatically just a few months ago the national journal did a study that found that the mainstream media was focusing much more on the deficit then on the unemployment crisis the foreclosure crisis student debt these issues have been thrust into the central into the center of our discourse by this occupy wall street movement and that is that's already having a significant impact resistant the size of this is well if you like your out you might find this interesting this new application for android powered phones called prime getting arrested finally tells lawyers friends and families have been handcuffed by coming to check out the details about that so you.
3:20 pm
coming up shortly feisty fine i was doing here in about ten minutes max and stacey pulled no punches in europe so from see solutions let's get across the rest of the day's business with the maitri. and others whom welcome to business saw some progress been made in russia's efforts to join the world trade organization georgia the only country which still opposes russia and has agreed to new proposals from swiss mediators in the negotiations on the cost was the details. georgia was seen as the last hurdle blokhin russia from joining the w t l with the main problem wall street moments of the breakaway republics of south the sets and a possible which of course won their independence after a brief conflict in two thousand and eight and sentient it was high between russia
3:21 pm
and georgia ever since then and the w t o has always been a major cause of a conflict and the swiss mediators than the stepped in and offered plans which georgia has now accepted paving the way for russia to join the w russia has been trying for seventeen years to join the organization and it's still the largest economy outside not a member and of course it's not willing to accept just any proposal to become a member it should be no it's a bad russia could still join it if it got a majority vote which would effectively deny georgia a veto 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 staying with the story russia says it will need some time to consider the swiss proposals as from business new europe magazine says russia is likely to join the w t o even if it rejects new. i think russia gratefully accepted poses with
3:22 pm
us face and even if they turns it's still possible for us it's joined with outs george's votes in so much as you can do it by simple majority the thing is every country that's joined so far is joined with unanimous votes and so would be another black mark of russia's. wish they'd rather avoid it however i think there's a good child so have a nice christmas present membership you know by by christmas if not shortly thereafter but it's also important in so much as there is no rush but at the same time you know trade is becoming an increasingly important part of the global economy to supervise a ship and the fastest growing routes is between emerging asia and europe russia sits right in the middle and the point of having that is the trade is already going on but it will just level the playing field and make everything work more smoothly same race for everybody which will mean there will be more volume which will bring more revenues to russia and it will make integrated. markets rebounded globally on
