exports from russia to china is also massive but now we understand according to put in that this cooperation will expand suddenly this is some kind of news which would hardly be very welcomed in the west in the united states in particular which have been growing a very much war with china's growing military might and the recent visit by the u.s. secretary of defense mr panetta to the asian pacific region basically confirmed all these worries with producing statements like the united states must be vigilant in the face of. china's growing military power but beijing is also growing very impatient and very irritated with the actions of the united states which particularly this visit often that the saying that the growing military presence in the region may destabilize the whole situation we certainly are waiting to see whether there will be any reaction coming from washington on these statements coming from beijing but definitely the fact that russia and china are growing their

military ties certainly adds a very interesting spin to global geopolitics. meanwhile leon panetta is wrapping up his asian charm offensive with a lot stop in india ryan backer from the antiwar answer coalition says america's military focus on the region could have dangerous implications. it's because the united states wants to exercise had gemini in the asia pacific when it says it's pivoting towards asia which president obama announced in australia in january that should be considered a dangerous thing for asia the united states invaded the philippines in one thousand nine hundred in one thousand eight hundred it invaded the asian part of russia to stop the russian revolution during world war two that's what most of the war in asia then it went to korea vietnam the united states is for many many battles in asia so a pivot towards asia should be considered something of great alarm for the people of the continent china is seeking to defend itself it does not have a global ambitions with its military unlike the united states which has

a thousand military bases located in one hundred thirty countries china is basically concerned with its own economic development of course as a major power but they see the united states plans their pivot towards asia is something very threatening. still ahead for you on r t a deadly wedding tragedy a fresh nato air straight kills more than a dozen afghans at a marriage ceremony we look at the huge toll the u.s. led war is taking on civilians. syria faced similar lethal foreign force america gives its clearest threat yet and the struggling peace plan expert opinion coming up here on. the attention of wiki leaks supporters has now shifted to an american military court where u.s. army private bradley manning a suspected website contributor faces his latest hearing he's suspected of the biggest leak of government documents in u.s. history charges lawyers hope to see dismissed over as artie's machine

details. the draft aims significantly increasing the fines for violating the rules of taking part in mass rallies from the current seventy year olds up to a maximum of seven thousand euros for average citizens or around two hundred hours of community service or that's why it's caused such a wee bit of fierce criticism and anger a lot from the official and unofficial opposition many of whom are calling this draft draconian but its supporters say that it corresponds with western european standards and actually if we compare the figures to the penalties in some of western european states are often much more severe and the fines could be much higher as well reaching seventy five thousand euros the draft was initiated after a launch protest rally ended in clashes between some of the protesters and the police we've seen pieces of concrete flying around small grenades and injuries on both sides it was more of

a marathon last night when it took eleven hours for the lower chamber of parliament the state duma to work through the draft because of a new tactic which is being taken on by the opposition which is new for russia but it's a practice which is similar to filibuster ring in the united states when some deputies try to be as abstract as possible to do real the vote but by around midnight it still ended up being passed to despite this fierce debate. remember we've got all the latest stories on our web site here's a taste of what's online right now digital doomsday and a russian cyber security that predicts the end to the world as we know it triggered by internet terrorism the details that are to dot com. as we investigate the mystery of an american satellite which returned to earth after a year in orbit with its mission cloaked in secrecy. a morning nato air strike in eastern afghanistan has left at least eighteen people dead including

women and children according to local officials the people living nearby say all those killed were celebrating a wedding they have tonight claiming they took out eight military commanders in the strike the president of the pac nationalist forum told r.t. that america will pay for the damage and misery it's inflicted. would go with with the afghan government is saying and they're saying that civilians have been killed today the of gun people have lost more of their civilians in the first decade of the twenty first century then the united states lost on nine eleven it was a tragic event of nine eleven but this is no less a tragedy and frankly we don't see any justice in this that the of gun people could lose this many and of course nato in the u.s. military not guns done a very quick to condemn the taliban for their bombings in various cities where an attacks of course were civilians are killed but how is the u.s. military and nato any different they kill as many civilians there we talk to

a lot of gun activists and i think any future government in afghanistan after the americans are out in order to reclaim credibility i think they will have to initiate some sort of a reconstitution process whereby they would have to move some legal cases maybe go as far as the u.n. or the international court of justice and ask for compensation for what happened i mean of ghana's john will be left with with with wounds that would take decades to heal i mean just just thousands and thousands of civilians have been killed. the u.s. is threatening syria with a un security council resolution that could authorize the use of force washington says strong sanctions imposed on the country won't bring what the white house sees as necessary regime change in syria russia and china have previously vowed not to allow any military intervention in the country via the u.n. but the u.s. hinted that foreign powers might consider bypassing the international monitoring

moscow is calling for a special international meeting on syria aimed at encouraging all warring parties to return coffee at this peace plan that many sexpert terakhir leave says u.s. and its allies would be interested in such a gathering. when the americans vassal state slow growth some talk about transition what they are effectively mean is regime change that is what they did in libya with dire consequences as we can see in their country today in syria the plan to bring both sides to the table and have a negotiated settlement is obviously the best way to move forward but the united states and britain and their other allies have absolutely no pressure on the other side to come to the negotiate negotiating table and start a process of daws so it would appear to me that what we now have is an end game

situation where the united states has decided to remove this regime and will use everything in a spot to do so. as well as the scene of ongoing violence syria's also locked in a so-called information of war or to talk to the country's minister of information who told us how mainstream media coverage of the conflict often clashes with reality is full interview is coming up later on today for you here's a preview. of the very people responsible for the deaths filmed their crimes and sent the footage to the media blaming the government for the atrocities of the recent study shows that ninety percent of satellite coverage on syria has nothing to do with the actual situation in the country it's all lies and fabrications again that there's a real information war waged against syria with real facts being substituted with

fabrications these lies and the only way for them to achieve their objectives in their war against syria and how to massacre is a good example of that that as soon as the first pictures of the massacre were released everybody started accusing the syrian army and security forces but we all know who was really behind this crime today the people of syria targeted by terrorists. and sponsored by regional powers like qatar saudi arabia and turkey as well as by western nations such as the us. hundreds of thousands of egyptians have packed into the now iconic tahrir square in cairo rallying for the death penalty for ousted president hosni mubarak leading to the protest where the country is out in force ahead of a looming presidential vote in the country and eager to capitalize on the

burgeoning unrest. there. thousands of protesters have converged here a race where in the center of cairo you can hear the sounds of protests reverberating around the square around me a real feeling of anger in the streets tonight and it's primarily focused around the verdict in the mubarak trial hosni mubarak egypt's former president is now going to spend the rest of his life in prison it seems unless the protesters get their way at least some of them wanting to do a bit more of a back than that and to get in the death penalty and what really set them off was six of his senior security officials who were acquitted of involvement in the deaths of hundreds of protesters in egypt's revolution last year there's also added tension around these protests because very shortly egypt will enter the second

round of its presidential elections but many people here expressing a lot of frustration that they see the choice in those elections as being really no choice acts all one candidate mohammed morsi is from the muslim brotherhood he's been trying to garner support here at the protest going around the crowds saying that if he was elected president he would drag mubarak back to trial and try and how often executed which has struck a chord with some of the protesters however he has received criticism from a wide wide number of groups as well they see the muslim brotherhood as religiously conservative and warn that they may try and hijack this revolution the other meds shafique is mubarak's last prime minister and a former air force officer the protest is just as angry about him they say that he could well be or should well be darker standing in these presidential elections but
