night to remember russia's legendary bolshoi theatre reopens after a six year at no expense spared renovation with an exclusive grandfather. just after three pm here in the russian capital this is r.t. this week a song nato officially announced the end of its aerial campaign in libya starting from next month of the country's interim leadership will take a troll of all security responsibilities well they're also tasked with rebuilding the country as well as prevents a good off era military stockpiles from falling into the wrong hands that's a tall order and a nation flooded with weapons artie's and he said now reports. the war is

gold work but the weapons are fully loaded. human rights watch of expressed grave concern about left arm in libya there are one fear where it's going to hold ground to air which could in the wrong hands take down passenger aircraft. through made so and nato 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 light weapons 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 i mean if there is somebody who has worked and we asked him if he has authorization for this we are not. going to. 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 is what if they go and what does that mean up for pulse gadhafi in 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 return is how to give back the weapons could 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. you know. we have some of the c b m when the test run through and a makeshift arms collection center that covers one neighborhood in the capital we are shown there you go through these are the weapons people brought to me today not many walked down one walk in tripoli and you'll see twice as many fire.

you know how many weapons there are in libya i think just like after we have been sitting here i think everybody has. some think the fun of arms in the country could spell disaster ahead in a vacuum after gadhafi impulse will poke. he asked his group find out 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 mates who actually either they've 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 that 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 for you with nato how

is now asking the alliance to continue with mission a vivid indication of just how unstable the country is and he's now a r t tripoli. well now that nato is wrapping up in libya the organization's chief described the operation as one of the most successful and the alliances history of patrick a as a reporter for online magazine spikes says nato had no strategy other than regime change. what we see here more than anything else is opportunism of the worst possible sorts from western political leaders who are effectively trying to rewrite history for out this entire conflict and to give the impression that they have some kind of strategy they were completely disorientated completely reacting to events rather than directing them the transitional council broadly has been cherry picked by nature these are people that effectively the puppets of the west this have been put in there because they are kind of safe representatives because the rest fears you know what might actually happen if the libyan people as they try and take the

democratic initiative for themselves effectively against the scene has become quite dependent upon western leaders for guidance and i think that's really kind of problematic in many ways because again they're not genuinely representing the libyan people and their particular interests they're orientated instead to wards the west and their interests now it's thought colonel gadhafi is most influential son saif al islam has fled to nigeria apparently looking to have himself over to the international criminal court has reportedly used a spokesperson to make contact with the hague to deny charges of crimes against humanity however some experts believe that putting gadhafi sight on trial is the last thing some muster leaders want to see arkansas about that explains. to some moammar gadhafi was a man with not much secrets which will supposedly he buried with him i think that there were tremendous sighs of relief all over capitals in western

europe this is somebody who cut all sorts of deals with the french but also a great issue 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 in the slightest bit surprised that he was captured alive if you very quickly ended up getting it that is return from diplomatic exile was spectacular hugs handshakes and kisses from the heads of countries which denounced him that he's now silenced but the suspicion around those who laid out the welcome mat is far from buried. i don't feel as long as the history seems with . the shooter dealing with his constant and. it's all go away and obviously think this is a situation as fission will probably grow trink certain interaction ironically interests wish they could reverse recruit their interests then british prime

minister tony blair was instrumental in get daphne's rehabilitation bringing him in from the cold in two thousand and seven play didn't leave empty handed trade between them flourished so did the cozy relationship it was six more secret meetings after player left off base his people denying they were about releasing the lockerbie bomber abdelbaset al mcgraw he or britain would lose its lucrative libyan deals i regret myself enormously that tobacco he was but should he should have been said to the international criminal court put all the trial and forced all it's a question through all the terrible things he did and if it davidge viva contemporary world leaders who are previous regimes leaders tough we need to know. what is darted into day with people 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 contracts with the gadhafi regime worth over two

million pounds to educate hundreds with a 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 a daffy even letting him pitch his tent in the elise a palace apparently for bankrolling sarkozy's party 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 and we have all the details. a ready to reveal everything. saif al islam gadhafi son and key right hand man reportedly ready to surrender to the war crimes court so you've is going to have no information on that i think was so huge that tony blair intervened formed to help him get his dodgy ph d. degree from the london school of economics when. he was plagiarized as

a lawyer things have gone on so you knows about. he's wanted to 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 is keeping the western power players are hidden it are to london. and his first century with the western media since serious uprising began at bashar al assad that actions against his regime could transform syria into another afghanistan his comments came after the u.s. secretary general once again condemned the country's violence calling for the repression and the arab league also urged assad to end the civilian death toll with more than three thousand killed since the arrest began in march our ministers are due to meet syrian officials later today to press for a dialogue between the government and the opposition some protesters have been calling for a new fly zone over the country goes to these. missile have for you

in the u.s. media use the night of violence you know pledge to portray the protestors as radicals and more violence from the occupiers a lot of these people or professional educators a good number of these people are radicals no doubt about it you might ask how radical was this elderly woman in a wheelchair who was tear gassed by police or jasper father of two who was working on his ph d. at the university of california berkeley you know they characterize you know it's. the. perspective of the. marginal and radical and fringe in order to discredit this movement really is about all americans it's not just about people that people sturrock we've been for this is about now it's to the middle class that is starting to feel the impact of corporate greed that is run this country for so long as the movement grows bigger and more structured it's becoming harder to ignore the message of the campaigners who call themselves the ninety nine
