i know what's really happening to the global economy with mike's cancer the no holds barred look at the global financial headlines tune in to cause a report on our t.v. . this is r t and tonight the first to an observer team arrives in syria the world to see the troubled troops there but the massacre says it must call warden a monitor his movements to keep them safe. the man who bombed and shot seventy seven innocent people says he did it in self-defense they one of anders breivik trial his him say he was protecting his country from muslims. and his pole position for russian oil giant there's a teams up with america's exxon mobil to pay out the treasures under the arctic ocean. modes of convenience as the u.s. the rosso agreed to pull their exceptional only two resources the business is in twenty minutes.

early yet she watching r t coming to you live from moscow it's eleven pm now this one the thing i'm kevin zero in our top story then is the first u.n. observers touched down in syria the government is being urged to allow the man restricted access to monitor the fragile cease fire there and ask it says it can't guarantee the monitors safety though in less every step coordinated with the authorities for its part the opposition claims it's still under attack and the government find a crackdown on what it calls terrorists and was unavoidable brings you the latest from damascus. the whole point can can be reborn for serious orthodox christians the meaning of easter was all the more poignant this year as they contemplated the sacrifices of the last few months the death and suffering across the country many sought refuge in prayer hoping that peace would be

resurrected i guess. prays for peace despite isolated clashes the kofi annan brokered ceasefire has answered it's true they have been the rival of the universe servers a lasting peace may now have the best chance in months still as these analysts points out the u.n. monitors may need to learn from the experience of their arab counterparts as mission in january failed to stop the bloodshed and use of both the government and the opposition the un missions were professional credible it will be made up of the observers of particular countries with their own agendas and their perceived neutrality or the lack of it could make or break the mission. the rapid deployment of monitors is in the interest of the assad government it has argued it's the only way to ensure the compliance of both sides to the ceasefire now that their servers are on the ground you know officials have made it clear they expect the syrian authorities to take further steps to uphold it but we are worried about the

operational deployment of heavy armor. in population centers they don't belong. they didn't belong there in the first place they don't belong and we are working with the government. the opposition for a full cessation of violence in all its forms let me leave that for the moment. with claims and counterclaims of violence by both sides the u.n. monitors will surely wrestled with the challenges they had but at least they have syrian steering them on the honor of the shop just ordered another batch of these t. shirts a popular wrestling slogan in syria it is now taking on a whole new meaning with thousands killed because they can see it rising above he is a tall order and. here is many syrians agreed that having impartial international observers

on the ground may be the first step in that direction. artsy damascus syria to talk about here tonight let's discuss it with political analysts north gucci's and one of them is adrian always good to have you on the program good to see you tonight let's talk about qatar's reaction first of all this plus to the security council as of morals the u.n. effort to stop the violence is only going to three percent chance of success one of those being so negative. well probably because they would have liked to see our more direct intervention on the part of the u.n. i think many of the countries in the region who are client states of the americans and the british saudi arabia kuwait kade are the united arab emirates and others would have rights to see our invasion or outright attack they would have liked to see a rerun of resolution one nine seventy three and used against libya which will be a destroyed libya and now has flown still into civil war so no doubt there are many

who would have liked to see extreme violence being legally approved by the u.n. but then russia. would have vetoed the various attempts we now have something which is not more balanced much more fear and much more likely to go positive results given peace a real chance in syria let's talk about the observers and what they're actually going to see the u.n. says the government must allow observers access to monitor the sixty five we're in the government saying that they they need to be accompanied to guarantee their safety what's the real picture going to be one of the really going to see that another doubtless sad proposal you think. you know it's going to be very difficult because i think what we are not really are ignoring or at least the western powers of the us the media in general are ignoring the fact that there is an insurrection inside syria very similar to the insurrections we've seen in egypt we've seen in libya we've seen in many countries around the region which are obviously genuine grievances all the peoples of the in the area no doubt also in syria as there are

genuine grievances in just about every country in the world but with foreign intervention bent on creating civil war in syria when foreign minister russian foreign minister sergei lavrov asked hillary clinton in february what's the endgame hillary clinton snapped back saying it's going to be civil war we now have the united states robin be admitting and proposing that the rebels the so-called freedom fighters the insurrection in syria be financed trained and armed now that is a very good example of state sponsored terrorism on behalf of the problem on the part of the united states of britain who want to finance rebel groups insurrection guerrilla groups inside a foreign country syria this case and this is practically official policy as proposed by senators john mccain joe lieberman lindsey graham john kyl john haven and also while also blessed by we have a very large vested interest in seeing syria really into our growth of the world

we've only got thirty seconds say despite all these grid news that if you're outlining there let's try to look at one of the positives russia has been doing an awful lot to try and keep the talking going throughout all this the opposition delegation has been in moscow again today describe the talks is very positive are we seeing some genuine efforts on the rebels' part to end the bloodshed. i don't think so i think that the rebels have now realize that their chances. options are much more limited so they're going to have to act accordingly as i see russia has a very important balance and that was the old formula much to the aggravation of you know. is the rule in other countries or the rebels i was going to help with that because they are puppets of the western powers and trying to destroy syria. good to see you thank you very much for being on the program and. now the big story today the first day of the trial of self-confessed norwegian killer and his brother

and perform a right wing salute smirk at survivors in court and we put his own propaganda video and he admits killing seventy seven people in that bomb attack on a government building and benefit page at a youth camp last summer but he did neither criminality insisting it was self-defense to protect norway from muslims well let's get a perspective on that now and talk to held a little rossi's from the we institute of international affairs joining us on the violin feed from oslo. thank you ever so much for being with us the story bit so deep didn't it in your country. once his public trial to broadcast his radical right wing ideas after what the world witnessed today do you think you should be allowed to rally support for his cause like this. i don't think we have much choice in this country it's a principle accused is actually able to get his story to explain his. actions and why did it on the serves as

a basis for the something so they don't really have a choice as long as you are following the rules or grown something ok well i mean you can never explain why some because something like this but critics can assess several times as need to determine whether he is saying or not this is the big question his lawyer says his own testimony is help testing not tomorrow present he says tomorrow night given the uncertainty over his mental state so far not using the judges will decide about his health. so they just say it's perhaps a bit difficult to say but most opinions in norway all turning in the direction that a criminal is saying that they can be punished is the first report from the two first restore it was questions and questioned in the beginning and then the second report came which causes when i saw him in court today i couldn't really to take on the psychosis so i think the court will eventually get to the same conclusion but it

will be a. court case. and let's see how he behaves. we heard earlier from you know we gingerly says crime just paying for this trial is for most everyone in the country indeed i was on shift here when it happened here without talking over the pictures i couldn't believe it or seeing the stream the feed was coming through its effect here but in your country it was so so powerful how are people dealing with it even after this time has elapsed how they coping with it. i. think people are coping quite well of course those immediately affected their families in the tremendous loss but i. i think for most of the country life basically goes so there has been a lot of media attention about it but the case itself is not so much discussed among ordinary people on the to see you know is that people have become. over by

the coverage actually all of the media and they will go because of this case the facts of it declaring it did what they did. the case no ripples around the other is criminal is saying no no if we had coverage of this for my name in them so people are ready to get on the right amount of time we are coming from there but just just for all of you is that i'm so immersed in this every day obviously this is making the headlines of the moment mean premix claiming that the attacks were his way of protecting the way from being overwhelmed by muslims can you just outline for us as you see as much of an issue there is in the way of a multicultural. well it became certainly an issue auster. to some extent it was previously as well but it has been. on the island confortable topic for some years. not by be discussed and perhaps kept out of the public eye but since private some talk and

his ideology has been very much at the forefront but not necessarily discussing immigration as such but discussing whether we should discuss it at all it's a bit of a metal discussion at the moment but there are a significant number of new immigrants to norway every year because also of the economic situation there are people that are concerned and then there are a lot of people who actually go this but a lot of the debates in norway revolves around this question about immigration and the moment where he talked about there was little thank you for your thoughts on the norwegian institute of international affairs on the line there from oslo one of the tonight thank you. for developing story to energy giants aligning up to take the spoils of the article is not going to tell us too much we've got a full business bulletin in about ten minutes time let's just get a teaser anything from daniel what can you tell us about this deal and that. is unique expertise drilling hole to reach places like alaska and

certainly a very serious crackdown on the opposition with all those so so many people arrested and being sentenced to prison terms the society could and sentenced to five and two years in prison respectively now both of them have been set free on a presidential pardon they have reconvened with their families and came out with statements saying that they could never believe that their plea to be set free would be matched by alexander lukashenko you know the political analysts in belarus are trying to determine the reasons behind this move while the other. political prisoners still remain in prisons in behind bars in brother was and their fate remains pretty much unclear at the moment this also being a reaction from the european union from the highest representative and international affairs and security catherine ashton who said that releasing these two prisoners is definitely a right move to improve relations between brussels and minsk and she demanded that the old other political prisoners must be set free as well definitely the ties

between brussels and minsk have been very much strains after the events and in december twenty ten the presidential election and the crackdown on the opposition in fact has a whole diplomatic missions to do so the european union left immediately old twenty seven passengers then the european union imposed sanctions umbrella was namely more than two hundred state officials and businessman are still prohibited from traveling to the european union countries as well as several companies are blacklisted from trade with the european union there have been talks of more suffer sanctions to come within the next several weeks so the possibility that the two. possible sanctions and the release of the prisoners are connected cannot be ruled out by many experts. porter let's check out some of the stories that article com our web site now at the moment outrage from israeli top brass including the prime minister and president when they saw this video for a bloody show you know they go but israeli soldier throws

a big brother role in philippine politics and there are many people were concerned that it could mean it was so ornate for the people national interest to u.s. interests so i think that these protests are a sign of a lot of discomfort with the traditional filipino over reliance on u.s. military muscle american ships have gone back and forth over the pacific owned it and it's especially a treat i think a lot of it is in your shop for the fact that for a long time america has been running because it is a big and no it's not so used to the idea of the powers but i think it for the future of world peace i think in the future of america will need to start negotiating trying to create a framework to share it. and it's not trying to see. the european court of human rights has ruled that the massacre of twenty thousand polish soldiers in russia or nine hundred forty one was

a very difficult technologically difficult process and russia lacks the know how you know to do so and it's getting this know how from its american partners the second factor is of course the legal fact ross never had to abandon its partnership with b.p. basically leave d.p. at the altar as this deal contradicted already existing agreements between b.p. and its russian partners in a joint venture c m k t v and the third factor is of course money because it requires a lot of investment we're talking about three point two billion dollars all but initial investment but folks companies admit that this value could go up ten fold we could see tens maybe even hundreds of billion dollars of investment coming in on these projects and of course foreign companies require some kind of sweetener to go ahead with this deal and they got one last week when the government announced new tax breaks for companies involved in exploration so as
