well news at twenty four hours a day with r.t. a very warm welcome to the top story now the late cold adelphi sun and key right hand man saif al islam has reportedly crossed the border from the libyan desert into new zep it's believed he's trying to negotiate a surrender to hand him self in to the international criminal court if he does eventually stand trial he could get spill some of the secrets of the regime's dealings at the same governments that helped topple his father parties either bennett reports. to some moammar gadhafi was a man who knew too much secrets which will supposedly be buried with him i think that there were tremendous sighs of relief all over a capital so in western europe this is somebody who cut all sorts of deals with the french but also the british and the italians and to a certain extent the americans as well i think they did not want him put on trial

for any reason and i am not misled is that surprised that he was captured alive if you very quickly ended up dead gadhafi is returning from diplomatic cakes are was spectacular hugs handshakes and kisses from the heads of countries which denounced him gadhafi is now silenced but the suspicion around those who laid out the welcome mat is far from buried could own fears to his grave three seasons with it but the. dealing with him is constant and it. will go away precisely because that this uncertain situation was fishing probably grew up. around acutely into a situation as it were prove that it was then british prime minister tony blair was instrumental in get to effie's rehabilitation bringing him in from the cold in two thousand and seven but blair didn't lead empty handed try. it between them

flourished so did the cozy relationship there were six more secret meetings after blair left office his people denying they were about releasing the lockerbie bomber abdelbaset al mcgrath or britain would lose its lucrative libyan deals i regret myself enormously that gadhafi was should he should have been said to trash a criminal court put all the trial force to all it's a question through all the terrible things he did and if it davidge the contemporary world all previous regimes and leave is tough. we need to know. what is darby. with. some details of the murky dealings have already emerged claiming the reputation of one of britain's leading universities the london school of economics agreed to contract the figure that the regime worth over two million pounds to educate hundreds his future civil servants the director was forced to resign and now the university of tripoli is demanding

the money back french leader nicolas sarkozy was never shy in creating good daffy even letting him pitch his tent in the elisei palace apparently for bankrolling sarkozy's path to the presidency so says this man the one who could still tell all the cause he had ever had sarkozy must give back the money he took from libya to finance his electoral campaign we funded it and we have all the details and are ready to reveal everything. saif al islam gadhafi son and key right hand man reportedly ready to surrender to the war crimes court saif is going to have low information and i think we're sorry if that tony blair intervened form to help him get his dodgy ph d. degree from the london school of economics one. degree or apparently was plagiarized there's a lot of things that have gone on that saif al gadhafi knows about saif gadhafi is wanted to answer for his own actions in libya is drawn out battle for control but

it's what he could reveal about the diplomatic deals with his father that's keeping the western power players sweating after bennett r.t. london. well the beers interim authorities will take on the full responsibility for security in the country starting from next month that's after the u.n. security council voted to end the no fly zone there and halt netas campaign arties going to chicken or has more details from washington. 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 russia's and voyage to the united nations 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 have.

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 a time when the head of libya's transitional government asks nato to prolong its 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 the. no fly zone is an end of a face that raises questions as to what the next phase will be some analysts say maybe nato is planning to stay in libya in one form or another anything is possible at this point 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 levy 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 leading civilians died in nato strikes the country is a ruling is now it's also green 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 could office millet. stockpiles secure a plan that will perk help prevent the smuggling of libyan weapons because it's just too much of a danger of. admitting greece to the eurozone ten years ago was a mistake according to french president nicolas sarkozy who says the country provided false figures when it was allowed in he spoke after talks in brussels where it is agreed a set of measures to deal with greek debt those measures include banks writing office fifty percent of greek debt recapitalization of european banks so they can

cope with possible losses and expanding the bailout fund to one trillion euros do you spend it with anger in germany the biggest contributor to the bailout fund protest is there spoke out against the plan which creates moved it. says it's lucky today in the euro zone even deeper trouble. it's a debt problem that they're going to cure by adding more debt that one trillion euros the president of the e.u. herman van rompuy has already said that they can leverage up to five trillion euros that will be and they whine and so they're trying to solve a debt problem with more debt you're guaranteeing economic collapse by adding more debt this is why this should and should be stopped in the next couple of months you're secure going to be able to say that we staved off catastrophe for two months but if you were truly interested in solving this problem greeks would default

a hundred percent on their fraudulent debt they would contain their sovereignty and banks would be forced to deal with the bad loans that they may why we mollycoddling banks why are we giving them one set of laws and everyone else has a separate set of laws is because the i.m.f. and their banking friends have taken a position above this far and see very these countries they're not all like that officials and yet there are. terms to these these people these. you're guaranteeing full overall financial catastrophe by letting these charlatans pose these theories that adding debt to a debt problem is going to increase stability that's insane. well the economy continues to spark heated debate within the e.u. but in germany there are also other issues causing concern including religious studies using islam classes and schools to help heal divisions on their lives ended up having the opposite effect. and peaceful response to

a wave of brutality occupy wall street protesters are preparing for a general strike with details just ahead. georgia larks to present an image as a fledgling democracy and a free and open society but persistent stories of state interference in the media changing that perception that many journalists saying. your forty's lottie's tom barton his from one reporter he says the situation has become so bad he's seeking political asylum. recently those who make the news in georgia have been becoming the news john doe nine a touch of the founder of an opposition t.v. station applied for french political asylum just days before nicolas sarkozy arrived on a visit but he was disappointed. i contacted the french embassy and i was sure my problem would be resolved quickly but i was mistaken they didn't make an

appointment and i've had no news from them if they don't contact me in the near future i'm determined to go to other embassies. korea leti t.v. is a small station in the north of georgia john doe and his staff say it's mikhail saakashvili as government that's pushed him to apply for asylum he says they're putting pressure on him because of his channels criticism of policy and for showing the opposition views as well as those of the government all of that is then look we have to work on difficult conditions as we cannot get any comments at all from officials when a government official gives a press conference reporters from other channels are allowed inside to do their job but your letter reporters are denied entry we are clearly being discriminated against. the georgian government strenuously denies the claims and others doubt his sincerity sunburn john doe no attachment is asylum request a public that is stunned but he's deadly serious consistent with jordan all four of

these are after him just because of what he and his channel say and judging by the record in recent years he's not the only one in two thousand and nine the widow of former georgian president appealed to germany's angela merkel for asylum and numerous others have left the country tria letty has need of the resources nor the audience to seriously compete with large pro-government channels but john doe's say's he's sure about the government's reasons. it's because we're in opposition. station they want us to give in and work for them to promote their message but i can't stoop to that. and this is the symbolism of the frustration felt by mr nunn attash villi and his fellow opposition media a mock funeral the mentoring as they put it the death of georgian free media. tom barton party. over on our website you can always find

it and that raises some interesting issues have spoken to at least three different protesters who now came out specifically because they were shocked to see this kind of level of crackdown in their own country for essentially nonviolent actions it has been sort of interesting to see how it's changed the nature of the protests here some of the organizers that have been here in new york from day one said that this sort of they do a lot of this nonviolence training where you know they asked people to stay calm and sort of make their get their message across without actually getting aggressive with the police and a lot of that they said went out the window last night where several hundred if not a thousand protesters marched across new york getting a little bit more aggressive with police shaking barricades in some cases pulling netting the infamous our internet is out of the police hands and what many protesters said to me is that they were really surprised by the sort of mild unusually mild response by the police force here because remember this is the same police force that pepper sprayed women in drove a scooter over

a scooter over an attorney's leg and beat several protesters down the mood here in the park is quite wary there isn't a mass sort of action plans along the line likes of what we saw with the brooklyn bridge rally or times square but they're doing a lot of sort of defensive training because again as i mentioned the general mood here is that something is going to happen so i guess wednesday the you know the november second general strike would be a day to watch for but a lot of focus also later in november november seventeenth the twenty eighth mass rallies are planned not just here in new york but across the country and the world so we'll have to see how that plays out. he said photo fus forums about it the occupy wall street protests on twitter page if they can stop it. coming up in just a few minutes historic moskos world renowned bolshoi theater. larry opens its doors and with huge excitement is a vision restoration. for the in brief but other leading

will need some time to consider the swiss proposals u.s. lawfulness of all that from dortch about outlines the benefits the country is likely to get after joining the doubles here. one of the key benefits of russia's accession to w would be the ability to diversify its economy by exporting more goods and services abroad better non oil specifically this would refer to. steel such as fertilizers chemicals which would also probably with time refer to a broader scope of sectors including agricultural goods including perhaps. some of the high tech products that russia could offer as part of its modernization drive but another aspect but i think will be very important is russia's capability after w two accession to forge alliances trade alliances across the globe. and

time to look at the markets now oil is lower following strong gains in the previous session helped by europe's debt deal and is trading at one hundred eleven dollars about. ninety three dollars a barrel and asian markets on the rise for the second day after europe announced its latest plan to contain its sovereign debt crisis japan's nikkei is up one point four percent and hong kong's hang seng jumped over one and a half percent banks of the main advances after the european measures were announced hong kong was heavyweight h.s.b.c. climbed three percent and bank of china rose two and a half percent as less than two hours ahead of the opening bell here in moscow the russian stocks closed strongly in the black all thursday with the r.t.s. more than four percent in the black investors were inspired by europe's recent efforts to resolve the debt crisis but peter weston from atoll investment group says the sentiment could be short lived. given that a lot of concerns are sitting on cash we could see a little bit of

a continuation of this rally i think it's very weak into a foundation the sort of optimism that we've seen on the back of what happened in europe i think is very fragile because now what people would be doing is looking ahead and. basically asking yourself with other countries come knocking on the door for any kind of haircut for example and then we're back to the same agenda again there also as far as i understand a few issues regarding the facility increase that has not been decided yet so i don't think we're completely out of the woods but for now that seems to be the sentiment and investors are voting with the money and this could maybe continue for a little bit but as i say it looks fragile to me. that's it for now join me forty five minutes for more updates have been started watch.
