they feel that their brain to at this point they're actually following the nuclear treaty agreement there is no violation to that end but the american always and the israeli thing that is maybe some secret location where they are building their nuclear weapons and to this point there that inspection didn't find anything but i think a rand said very clearly they're willing to cooperate with the international community but you have to wonder what really the international community wanted at this point and what the american want to disappoint and as i said there's a lot of politics in it specially election. probably the israeli coming desperate at this point because they think if you have one reach the level of capability of building the nuclear what then that would be devastating for them so. at this point and i think before six months we might we might heading

into a major confrontation in the persian gulf. why do you think western states rush in with punishing measures before hearing what the ira what the i.a.e.a. report has to say. i think it's these agency is seemed to be irrelevant at this point because no matter what they saying that sanction are coming because that's a suspicion are there. no matter what they are justifying or opening their facility there is some judgment already been rendered against your rant and i think the senate in the united states they took very aggressive sanction and sanctioning of the of the sun to the buying and all financial transaction with a rainy and. government this is very painful for their rainy and but

at this point i think. if you look at the international community you it's institution becoming out of relevant whether the u.n. whether the nuclear agency it's what we see now as we see monarch bully of international law by the united states united states go on use these institution to serve its interests without actually noticing the implication for the walled economy the united states being a spoiler for the war order somebody to stop this madness and we saw yesterday we have to stop it there was any political analyst speaking with us from beirut thanks for your insight. later in the program we hear from iran's interior minister who's serving his country will weather the storm of mounting sanctions interview with r.t. said it's those countries imposing them that will end up being hit the hardest

here's a sample of what he had to say in the next hour. i think. that i believe they've made a big mistake as this election results in turbulence for the oil and energy markets this very fact it can result in oil price growth in these conditions the west's judy expect the drop in the euro rate and the euro it will this new decision will result in further economic problems which as we can see have affected them already and so far they've been unable to find solutions the decisions taken today by the west you know naturally will result in the installation of the economic problems. corporate protestors in washington d.c. were a victim this weekend occupied since early october people were arrested when police using riot gear and horses raided the encampment officer said they were just enforcing a no camping law and the activists are allowed back into the park demonstrators say

it was a whole scale of action the occupy movement has seen some heavy police tactics including the alleged recent tasering of a nonviolent decent protester but excessive force was provoked activists according to kevin zeese from the it's our economy think tank telling our t.v. occupiers are too smart to fall into that trap. who knows what's going through their head space on that you know when we i watch that video it's available online and it looks like there is no justification for it when i went to make fears in the day to ask about it people said the only thing he was doing was taking the signs around the tents and said no camping and so that was the rationale for tasering him he was dropping it while he was not being threatening looks like a excessive use of force my sense is that it's not going to provoke the macpherson campers that there are more. discipline than that to fall for that kind of trap the occupy movement and a few months i should show the american people that if they get mobilized and organized that we have power we can change the direction this country so the

future's going to be an american spring that's going to splode out of the scene and become more important the presidential race in two thousand and twelve. remember you can fire the latest stories on our t.v. dot com twenty four hours a day here's what's a click away right now and the protesters across europe seem to influence the debate as polish authorities decided to suspend proposed anti-piracy legislation. and future of sex some think it could be just a matter of years before robots become man's object of desire as scientists develop the amorous android all that and more at our two dot com. is to consider vladimir putin an arch nemesis blaming him for the death of his son alexander litvinenko the former f.s.b. officer but this week saw the unexpected change of heart from a fierce kremlin critic who now admits he simply said what the western press wanted to hear walter lippmann nko spoke with r.t. zakaria groucho. but is.

this is how we found michael. praying in his tiny telling apartment no electricity no gas no water what. if it wasn't for the help of various people who would have died from hunger to freezing to death the last time or two both was on christmas eve. we expected more because six years ago after his son former aphis be officer aleksandr litvinenko was poisoned in london he was taken care of by some very powerful patrons make suffix out tycoon ski and have and a tourist former chechen militant both hiding in the u.k. . yet extremist yogurt dorsett there are at least give me a yep real diverse you would be. one biker you can encode sent

a letter asking to be interviewed by russian television we expected more of the same but instead. we're going to. be made of each if you're watching this program please forgive me for all the slander the thai said and wrote about you for the hatred i had for you even only i had known my son worked for british intelligence i would not talk about his death he could easily have been shot as a double agent betrayers should be short of story what else can i add to this. the u.-turn vaulters says came when his son's we doe marina litvinenko revealed to the british media that her husband had worked for m i six alexander litvinenko was receiving a retainer of around two thousand pounds a month from the british security services at the time he was murdered at first by truly pin and co like many others claimed his son had been poisoned with polonium two ten on putin's order the former f.s.b.

officer and fierce critic of the kremlin alexander litvinenko spent twenty three days in a london clinic slowly dying from a toxic substance possibly consumed through a cup of tea even before police in london started questioning suspects the victim's father was actively kissing the russian government today by their at me it's he was saying only what the west wanted to hear. of course i realize russia's f.s.b. and the idea enough to take polonium to london sprinkle it over some heads and leave traces everywhere and their suspect and a little boy is not a fool either it was anger and blind hatred speaking inside of me viger now believes his son fell victim to his own game of double agents now he wants his words to be heard but the media outside russia which once beat down his door for interviews now won't even reply to his requests. why is that because

they like it when i scold the regime i was a real treasure for them all the while there are very few people who would say as many horrible things about you as i did. you know living in two thousand and eight but that in between young cole flat russia for sanctuary need to leave is settled in the sleeping quiet town of sunni guy it offered to new anonymous life the man claimed putin was his number one enemy so hiding in europe he believed was the only safe solution today by the libyan young co is still afraid to open this door not because of putin though but because of his landlord to whom he owes a lot of money this miserable life has made him a slave of his sanctuary but surely the namco sold everything he had in russia to come to eataly he opened a small business several years ago but it went bankrupt things got worse after the seventy three year old had buried his wife but are now fears her casket could be removed because he hasn't paid the cost of

a very old plot and it's been months since the electricity was shut off to his flat he was lost forty euros went on a gas canister and that is gone to. this is how my son of a look at the number in the door to let the southern wind inside. do is east and there's russia for your homeland or for the. children i want to go home to russia i do want to stay here he said in the church over our tea city gunyah eataly. be back with the headlines in a few moments stay with us here on r.t. .

russia and china block the western backed u.n. draft resolution on syria with moscow slamming the tax for an unbalanced approach in denial of dialogue between the government and opposition. stories shaping the we return to egypt is anger out of already as failure to prevent a deadly soccer brawl spills over into four days of violent clashes that have already seen a dozen dead. and in russia's bitter subzero cold hundreds of thousands join the record breaking rallies both pro and anti-government ahead of next month's presidential vote. and if you enjoy acquired a quieter kind of excursion somewhere off the beaten track at our special report coming up it's just for you. on his way to work every day.

by the homes of his neighbors the houses of the remains of coveted layers of sand and the people moved out a long time ago. but used to be a house right here buried by the. there were three other homes next to it another house was here. i remember it was. almost. yes that's my house there. though it's still standing but it won't last long this isn't much of a sand drift the win usually brings much more than covers the house up to its roof sometimes the windows are blocked off and there's no use trying to clear the side of the house you would need a bulldozer but you can't get one close enough because that would make the house collapse. these are not the dunes of the sahara in fact they're found be on the arctic circle in the permafrost of russia's north how to displace come to the desert and.

an airplane passes the low lying clouds and begins to descend inside its baggage laden cabin passengers are patiently waiting to land exhausted from turbulence everyone on board knows that flying to the village of showing a is always risky the white sea coast is infamous for its volatile weather which can change drastically within minutes if a strong crossed wind picks up will be impossible to set down the airplane will have to turn back home and attempt to return journey in a week's time weather permitting. when the pilot sees the green patchwork of the arctic plains give way to yellow swathes of sand he knows that he has arrived at the world's northernmost desert every incoming airplane is an event for the village on wednesdays local residents gather at the airfield some travel by foot others drive customized all terrain vehicles that are the only machines capable traversing

both the sams am marshlands. the village of showing a sit on cape can in no us washed by the white see it lies beyond the arctic circle one thousand four hundred kilometers north of moscow this tiny settlement in the middle of nowhere is unique fifty years ago the sound appeared. it has been waging a relentless offensive against the villages ever since local residents were totally unprepared and houses were evacuated joiners population plummeted from two thousand people to a mere three hundred seventy rule number one here is not to shut your front door at night otherwise it might be completely blocked up in the morning. local resident pilcher my league in has many household chores to take care of the most important one is watering the vegetable patch gets his water from the well despite its color

it is fresh and suitable for drinking there is no other source of water in the village the tiny vegetable plot that reclaimed from the desert is in stark contrast to the surrounding environment the sand can only accommodate weeds in a few flowers which don't even get enough sunlight to bloom. galena konya cova has been the village doctor for many years most of her patients call on her with heart problems and physiological disorders from walking on uneven sand day after day to day galina has to make a special house call the village has a new resident two week old step his mother brought in from the city of our candles to settle down in. life does he cry b.c. coping ok he says yes we born if you were born a big baby does he burst feet ok yes yes after if you didn't put him up right in lay him down on one side stick to the diagnosis alter spicy food stay healthy out

come to see you tomorrow bye bye. yes i have been here for six years when i arrived in two thousand and five there was only one lady and a village two thousand and seven story spike in the birth rate it was the year when the diesel power plant been done that we did not have lights for a month back them teams and it ended up boosting the birth rate what else could the young people do ten babies were born at a time today the rate is now relatively normal but there are still more and more children every year. the lighthouse is the pride of the locals and the main symbol of the village it is the only construction in the desert was unable to destroy it was even renovated got a new coat of paint for its fiftieth anniversary unfortunately in two thousand and ten it was closed down remember logan of we used to be in charge of the lighthouse

does not understand what happened in his spare time he still counts the one hundred forty seven steps that bring him to the top. where it was wrong to close this place down when the question of reviving the lighthouse was asked beyond so was may really perhaps perhaps in three five or even ten years right now if we had the means and the money to reopen it it would be up and running again immediately the structure holds a fun place in the hearts of or a man and his former colleagues they continue to say care of the building to the best of their abilities even though they know it is pointless modern navigation technologies have made such lighthouses redundant but it comes as no consolation to remember. nikolai much of skill was born in showing up he returned to his native village from the big city which he found uncomfortable because prefers

to go to work by his own vehicle his daily route takes him along a sandy beach south of the showing a river today this place looks more like a huge scrap metal at one time it boasted a wooden pavement club welcome visitors and fish were collected around the clock on the pier. the village was founded in the one nine hundred thirty s. the base for a fish trawling fleet it was showing as gold to the local fish processing factories canned millions of fish dozens of boats waited their turn to be unloaded with their cargo holds filled soul called and how about that the intense fishing had. a knock on effect the trolling nets were destroying the seabeds vegetation type started to pull thousands of tons of loose sand to shore with barely any trees on the tundra the sun's advance could not be held back. and came to work in showing a in one nine hundred forty seven she only planned to stay for three years but

ended up living here ever since she remembers the night when the sea seemed to term and to get revenge on them. a few years storm struck in one thousand nine hundred sixty three taken away all the seafront constructions of the village all the warehouses and there was a street there that was blown away all the houses were destroyed it all disappeared after that life in the village started to slow down we had cows and horses back then today there are none everything has been taken away the place used to be really exciting people worked into shifts i remember walking through the village he would see people dancing in the afternoon and at night it was so much fun to handle back then. the damage from fishing is just one possible cause for the sounds coming here the residents simply continue to live out their lives in this quietly dying place now classified as an environmental disaster yet even though

showing us suffers nature's wrath it is home to a weather station studying its affects the station is used for first choice weather forecasts come rain or shine at three thirty in the morning and evening a weather balloon is released from nikolai much a whole city was the person in charge of the police maintenance to raise it he uses which is obtained through an old recipe mixing sodium hydroxide with water etc silicon and a minion powder the gas created is just as effective as any commercially produced. nicholai prepares it to radio location and generic the control center inputs the data required for a successful launch finally the balloon is ready to go and is released. it will float up forty kilometers into the air and it will start gathering data

about the situation in the lower atmosphere. eager to make use of the warm. whether the actor's laugh is digging up some timber buried in the sand the wood will come in handy the winter turns out to be cold yet or slabs house is quite old with large cracks in the walls it is vulnerable to the weather so having more firewood never hurts. to do in one thousand nine hundred four i went to live in ukraine but i spent twelve months there but i didn't like it then you there's no freedom there. i'm not suited for farmer's work so i came back here. they have american hunt and fish i'm free to do whatever i like it's a place for free people who just. a feeling of complete freedom and unity with nature is the main reason people continue to stay here despite the fact that a lot of showing their residents are entitled to state and housing in central

there's no and to them i love showing and that's something that cannot be changed because it is in my heart and soul. of. this is to showing i will see that it is a place of contrasts even though each house is equipped with a satellite dish they're all heated with an old wood burning stove firewood is delivered from our congo by sea. quite often the cargo ships have to spend a while on the shore during low tide and end up looking like huge whales stranded on the sand. today showing a is receiving a delivery of fuel some machinery and merchandise for the villages and a shop the highlight is a brand new tractor for the weather station. the villagers were initially worried that it might have been damaged in transit but it started up on the first try procedure to head to the station across the sand dunes missionary we start sailing

in late may and finish in october. we travel from or can go to showing up in europe which takes about two days transporting food and equipment carrying a hundred tons of cargo on this trip there's no roads and it's too expensive to transport a by air so that leaves us with the ships. tied begins to return and the captain climbs aboard the crew has to hurry to steer the boat into the sea with a farewell hold blast the ship heads out leaving behind it a village of people who have managed to stand up against nature not just literally but also psychological. sunday mornings are ideal for walking along the shore especially if it gives your dolls the chance to see one of the big ships that come into the harbor. these future mums hold their own as they run into a junior neighbor that won't play with metal and there is not upset she likes dogs

my organ that this is my homeland. when we were children playing in the steps the grass was so tall that you could barely see if this could be more pleasing me they say that climate change takes millions of years but all steps of change are right in front of our eyes. it was plowed in the nine hundred sixty s. . they planted corn. sure but it didn't work out and it ruined the steps of the corn is very hydrophilic it drew out all the water and left small sangean is in its wake that is. throughout history the cow mix of lived as a nomadic tribe of herders that lived in harmony with nature breeding horses camels and even a special breed of counted sheep these sheep were perfectly suited to life in the desert there grazing did no permanent damage to the grass as hitler's army
