is reportedly awake and responding in writing to questions put to him by authorities nineteen year old zucker said knives in intensive care under armed guard after he was severely wounded in the throat in a shootout with police the investigators task now is to establish why an american citizen and his brother could have allegedly committed the deadly boston marathon attack and if there were a compass is artesian this is a report from boston. we're not hearing any details officials are not revealing any details in terms of the answers that is giving them course all of this comes after he was arrested friday night after a mass lockdown took place in boston after a unprecedented manhunt that took place here and a several hour shootout between law enforcement and this nineteen year old suspect we do know that he suffered injuries to his throat and was unable to speak and this is precisely what officials have been waiting for to be able to communicate with him to find out the motives to the boston bombings as well as the participation of

any per possible further accomplices apart from the two brothers that have been hunted by a officials here throughout the week nineteen year old dzhokhar and twenty six year olds on their lawn and of course we have to note that the miranda rights officer knight have been revoked the rights and he has to remain silent as well as a right to a lawyer are being denied to him because officials are interested in being able to question him without being able to use this right and the fact that his miranda rights have been revoked is receiving major criticism throughout the united states and causing really a lot of debate between certain politicians and civil rights groups as we do know back in two thousand and eleven the f.b.i. did receive a request from a foreign government this is russia's government that said that they should look into the identity of the older brother the older suspect to milan and the f.b.i. did in fact ring to milan in for questioning but did come to a conclusion that he is not dangerous and did end up freeing him and of course because the f.b.i. right now is being criticized for this they're going to trace their steps back look

into what exactly they could have missed but also try to establish right now with the second suspect being alive whether the two brothers had any kind of connection to extremist groups that they might have overlooked two years ago and in the in the time in the years and days leading up to the bombings that took place here in boston also of course they're going to consider and look into the purposes of the trip to the old. brother to milan when he went back to the north caucuses for about six months they're going to try to see whether or not this time was used for him to be able to communicate with extremist groups on the ground and stacy churkin at r.t. boston massachusetts. and friends of the family so the older brother kota low profile during his trip to the north caucuses last year and that he didn't seem like a religious fanatic meantime the father of the alleged bomber says that he'll travel from russia to the united states this week on a quest to find the truth in that he has lots of questions for american police correspondent cochon of his in the darkest hour republic to learn more about the

brothers. really almost anyone who has a mewling swell the family is really in shock after what happened both relatives and friends now the brothers spare and stopped talking to the media as of early saturday but i managed to speak to a close relative of the family now her name is. and he was she was married to the boy's uncle now she told me how really tragic and difficult the life of the type and i have family was and that for years they had been moving from one place to another as the father couldn't find a proper job and they've moved twice from kyrgyzstan first to than to dagestan were they span just a bit over a year and still they moved to the united states in two thousand and two she even showed us some pictures that we're taking during that time pictures that captured both brothers in their early trials women in one picture the older brother is just a bit over a year old now she spent

a lot of time with time evelyn when he came here to dagestan last year to visit she has a parents and she describes him as a very family loving and caring young man and when i asked her whether he expressed any x. her interest in this law she told me that his interest was never overwhelming. the middle long wasn't a religious fanatic he was curious about religion he started to be really interested in islam about three years ago but he was never a radical we would talk about his commitment to religion but it wasn't extreme it was really hard for her to speak she told me that. the younger brother was planning to come here to dagestan this may and now their father plans a trip to the united states to bury his out of the sun to madaline so as for many here if she couldn't the woman couldn't really believe that they were involved in the tragedy. it's impossible to believe that they could have carried it out just

impossible it's terrible. but if you believe in their children who respected their parents a lot timberland was very attentive to older people to sperm for him have been was of use mother's feet both parents mobile phones are switched off or rarely own line and it's really impossible to reach them but i have since managed to speak to the mother of the two brothers and kept repeating their first son's were in this and she also mentioned that her eldest son tamerlan was under constant surveillance for years when both parents before mentioned that told them that the i'll be i can talk to him right after the boston bombings and ask him for questioning however the out . later denied that information now as for the father i spoke with him also in a telephone conversation just yesterday and he told me that he doesn't want to talk to any media right now so really dozens of journalists from all over the world is

that how descended on this region hold that the man's family will speak and eventually shed some light to how their boys and did up the main suspects in the boston terrorist attack well off revelations of the suspects church and origins the u.s. media wasted no time in shifting the focus to groups in russia's north caucasus region militant gangs that have previously been portrayed in the west as freedom fighters and most of those merciless terrorists. believed american attitudes to church could explain the f.b.i.'s failure to take action after russia war two years ago about the older brother. there's a number of issues here one is that either it's gross incompetence by the f.b.i. in mischka as some heads have to roll and why did this take days how did these guys get in under the radar but also that they were pointed out by the russian authorities to the u.s. so it's not that they were known it's not like they didn't register so the people who are known so it could be gross incompetence for not taking the threat seriously

the f.b.i. could be saying look at these guys a chechen they could be a threat to the russian but we need a not a threat to us so there's a number of issues here there's also the issue of look maybe the f.b.i. just thought you know what these guys are extremists but they mean we don't pose much of a threat we don't see them doing anything so there's a number of issues here i think in the coming weeks and months we're going to find out the answers. so the u.s. may now be changing its mood towards chechen militants amid suspicions they may be connected with the boston bombings but things are different just a few years ago when it was quite willing to see some of them on its soil in two thousand and four american authorities granted political asylum to key chechen extremist. despite a warning from russia that he had links with the region's terrorists. after a dramatic manhunt for the brothers is still plenty of uncertainty surrounding the case at r.t. dot com a website we've got an opinion piece for you pointing out several glaring inconsistency in the official account of the standoff for the suspects or check that out we are you going to r.t.

dot com. so there's moved a step closer to joining the european union after the commission recommended starting talks on membership that decision comes in the wake of belgrade approving a deal with its breakaway territories kosovo the agreements been met with fury there were among serbs some of who. this tree is that thousands turned out in belgrade admit there in protest against the deal christine is ethnic albanian leadership control over kosovo while the serbian minorities will be granted autonomy is within the territory foreign affairs editor of public t.v. says the issue of kosovo's become a bargaining chip in exception talks. even though serbia wanted that also but not to become bargaining chip that was not what brussels had in mind the need in particular some major members of the european union like germany they clearly. had to belgrade that either you make a deal with cost of all or you will never. do your road towards the european union

. the. union and they do not like. how they will deal with it remains to be seen but indeed european union is on solving that issue because they have. to call the will they vote for the security. like members of nato to secure its independence of course where they are not going to give up now. well while some countries buying on the dollar to get into the e.u. others of funding the memberships rules or drive them into desperate measures maybe they want to get out greece is up for grabs with the largest fire sale in history from pristine coastlines to ancient palaces just to keep its economy afloat coming up with. the next most of course put the head of a british investment firm on an international wanted list issued an arrest warrant for him william broder from the hermitage capital investment funds also the former

boss of the late russian lawyer sergei magnitsky died in prison or being held on tax evasion charges let's get more on this more correspond your priest can all of you go what are the charges that leggett is dorian well first of all we know about william broader from the scandalous remarriage capital fund case he was its former head and he's suspected of large scale tax evasion we are looking at around seventeen million dollars and this is the same case where said the mother needs he was involved he was suspected of being part of the criminal edge criminal activities the fund was conducting conducting overseen by mr broader but what he did die unfortunately in prison before a court could make a decision on his case but mr broader has been now put on the international want to list actually in connection to a whole other case he is suspected of through various criminal schemes purchasing around one hundred million dollars worth of shares of russia's energy giant gazprom

which is prohibited by russian war and also suspected of trying to infiltrate the company change its rules including changing its charter the chances are you actually physically face court in russia or did ever be convicted well so far although they can be hearings of this court have been held without him there so now that he has been put on the international wanted list and actually that's one of the reasons behind that also. the prosecution says that the reason why they want him arrested is that they see he could apply pressure on some of the witnesses in this case if while since now he's been put on the international wanted list it's logical to expect that interpol will get involved and also that moscow should ask for his own extradition from great britain but then the relationship between moscow and london in that sense is very complicated too you don't have to think think much

just remember the chechen militant leader hugh london denied his extradition and numerous times the same goes for the recently deceased take on bodies because off the so it's very unlikely about london will cooperate with moscow and when it comes to william broader but the fact that he is already on the international wanted list has to mean something already got this can often correspondent. news headed your way around r t including reaction from military medical and that all going on lengthy under strike at guantanamo bay just ahead. technology innovation all the developments around. the future.

hello again from ancient palaces to entire islands greece is selling off seventy thousand lots of state assets to desperately try to raise cash wherever it can it's been described as the largest fire sale in history but it's vital of course to getting the next financial injection from the country's credit is there are no limits in the paymaster's appetite either as one greek filmmaker told. we have a soaring unemployment that in a few months we reach thirty percent and we have people committing suicide in the streets we have homeless all around campus so we're living in a humanitarian crisis that we haven't seen since i haven't seen the second world war the economic elites that actually control the greek government at least some point to what i imagine the c b droid wanted to do now that the real now is that there is a problem that we cannot continue with this just there in the policy unfortunately

the same feed doesn't happen for the greek government that will be on there it's coming from brussels or are or barely. the deceit of the relation that if you don't accept this or spirit or you suit. everything we collapse in in a few days or a few hours the country should default and probably even exit the eurozone troika doesn't understand this because troika and especially meth and europeans are not about the just here to save big financial institutions and b. banks don't pay attention to the relation or citizens' anger isn't just about being a public asset sold off to help banks rather than the actual public the country's minerals are also open to be exploited by the highest bidder too but the fear this time is more ecology than economy tom barr is covering that side of the story for us. protest in paradise the cause proposals to expand gold mines

here were on a mountain road near the village of st tony in northern greece there were the protesters who lodge in their position against the mine here further on the mountain road the riot police blocking them from getting to the village this process is just one of those showing the intensity of feeling surrounding the subject here greece's kalki de keep an insular is renowned of my tourists for its beauty but it also contains precious metals which canada's eldorado gold corporation wants to extract but split the region in yet its source locals want to protect their traditional trades. mining activity is the worst that could happen to this area mining and beekeeping cannot co-exist. and protect the health and environment that i'm in panic because the mining will destroy our clean air and clean water part of the problem is the process used to extract and purify gold and other metals which critics say will lead contamination by cyanide and other

chemicals as we travel up into the hills where forest has already been cleared the mining company security trails us then persuades alert the police up to stop. their security and locals are also giving if this is expected point they don't want us to film we want to pass honest public roads but i don't this show was about attention to between the locals and the whining good idea that the good. tension is indeed locals have destroyed some of the company's heavy machinery and ransacked the police station police have raided homes in the middle of the night to arrest suspects and fired tear gas at protesters but there is as much support the eldorado here is criticism both from the government and other villages whose mining populations welcome the possibility of thousands of extra jobs at a time of deep recession around half of the nearby villages of. throw mine deep critical of anti mining protesters. you these people who are unemployed cause many

problems by telling lies the only purpose is to shut the mines down in fact they want nothing they don't want any development or. eldorado gold refused to talk to but they say they will be leaving the area. locals in a year a source say they won't let mining go ahead without a fight with it if they do loops they will be leaving this corner of greece that they love so much. r.t. . i was going to exaction of the news stories lined up for a course on a website r.t. dot com there are now activists from anonymous web blackout in protest over the infamous cyber intelligence bill that allows authorities to harvest private information without a warrant big story this week more on that online from us plus two now says kepler telescope spot three planets where human life may just may be sustainable was still scaling the skies for an earth like home with a star like the sun going to read out more about that too it's on our website.

more than half of the detainees in guantanamo bay are now on hunger strike according to the u.s. military that is the biggest spike in the number of inmates refusing food since camp officials acknowledge the protest so far five have been hospitalized at the prison camp and seventeen are being force fed dr stevens and retired army medical corps officer and a former senior advisor to the defense department told us it might not be long before the protest turns lethal. typically people get very sick after about fifty days in which they've not had any food but are taking water so they may be getting very sick and i think there's a fear that a number may die within the next several weeks but all the world medical associations are categorically and ethically against force feeding the reason being is that it in fact disrupts what is most important which is establishing

a constructive relationship were poorer with the hunger strikers and being able to discuss the terms of their protest the this is a they if they have it also. really overrides their autonomy which is very important in medicine we accept that as one of our ethical principles so that by and large most organizations across the world feel that it is not acceptable and in this particular case what it does not help resolve their grievances and help resolve the conflict that we're having between the detainees and the authorities. becoming so far in a shop in western russia killing at least six people including two girls age fourteen and sixteen you know it is really the details well you know at this point in the thirty two year old sergey paul was doing is has apparently been holed up in

the in the sun sort of a space as supposedly a round. eight car market in the town of belgrade and the police special task force at this point are preparing to storm his hideout in order to apprehend him now this all started just several hours ago when this thirty two year old suspect has opened literally started a bloody massacre in the center of their russian town killing six people three people he shot inside the hunting store and then he went outside according to reports and shot three more passer bys among them two teenage girls now at this point we're also being told by the police that his father has been brought in for questioning his father has also previously served time for various criminal offenses in fact it's important to note that the suspect himself has just been released from prison last year where he was out on charges for robbery as well as assault on a police official and of course we're waiting for that for the results coming from

for the results from the police coming in from belgrade as they prepared to storm this man's hideout. it's been ten months since julie the son joined to the ecuadorian embassy in london seeking asylum in the state holed up there ever since with ecuador the u.k. still look to the diplomatic standoff over how best to deal with his son just the cost of policing with continuing to mount u.k. set on extradited world's best known whistle blow to sweden for questioning over sexual assault allegations meantime out he's probably could go to read chance to talk to us. one thing that's got the man excited is politics as many of you will know he's making a bid for the australian senate there's now a wiki leaks ponty that stands for truthfulness in the free flow of information and when i was doing a song about how he sees this chances at getting into the senate he actually mentioned that he's got quite a considerable interest in both him and the wiki leaks party and in terms of political goals of science is very clear he says he wants to put a stop to the u.s.

corruption in order so let's take a listen to him elaborating on that point for me was that bob carr was a u.s. embassy informant even back in the one nine hundred seventy s. even when he was a member of what senior member of the new south wales strain your term prime minister julie give out your role as the sitting prime minister to rob it happened in part because she sent a voice to the us embassy base but the security stop was a constant back and forth in the year long sort of preparation. which she was gracious himself with various parties very recently there have been reports that ecuadorian diplomats in the meeting with the labor party in the u.k. right she raised the issue of julian assange to perhaps in an attempt to get a guarantee of safe passage for julian assange orange in case labor does come to

power after the general elections in twenty fifteen but when i asked her songe about say he was quite skeptical he told me that he doesn't really think that there is going to be a change in the situation depending on which have a political party is in power in the u.k. the united kingdom. from asia and you're pretty clear institution mark for my six. right so this is border. control. to behave. in the media. and elected representatives simply represent. we represent forces to exist on the big institutions when i speak to you going to sarge actually according to him he said that the cost of policing the embassy is tipping four million pounds now and actually while we were filming outside the building i got chatting to some of the officers on duty and they were on usually frank williams the officer about how he

feels about the pulse of the city area you could sense a bit of frustration and said that you know all this money is going on watching one man when there are very crippling budget cuts taking place to police forces across the u.k. . well way out see visits part of the us this determined to live by its own rules that were revealed after the great game. the movie world war z z being first zombie which stars brad pitt as one hundred seventy five million dollar budget has been of re cut by paramount executives not because this is probably yet another stupid violent zombie movie but because the chinese might get offended according to the wrap dot com china was supposed to take

the blame for starting the evil zombie apocalypse this time but china becoming the largest foreign market for american movies made artistic integrity fly out the window to protect the bottom dollar as is tradition and hollywood this is not the first time that there has been pro-choice censorship in hollywood the remake of red dawn which was originally a cold war era a minstrel show against russians was supposed to show a chinese invasion of america this time however they have changed it to north koreans who can't even defeat the us military in south korea let alone at an away game in the usa the thing that is interesting is not the censorship is the fact that they will censor movies for whoever's got a lot of cash countries the big markets won't be offended but countries with small markets will this is a complete prostitute mentality show that love to any guy who's got bills in his palm you know i was always pretty sure there were a lot of prostitutes working in hollywood i didn't know they actually started making the movies but that's just my opinion.

again. you see there. regarding what the republic of texas was in eight hundred thirty six

a number of people who had moved here from north america. at the invitation of the mexican government to settle here they were being chased out by the new president of mexico was also a general of the army's there. and they had to defend themselves against south and i was armies that lasted for about a year but finally general sam houston leading these volunteers defeated santa ana a place called sanyo sento and in defeating the president general of mexico they were able to force him to sign a treaty. the treaty formed a new nation said that he would never again come across the rio grande river to bother of the people in texas any more tree also said. that the land of texas. belonged to the people who.
