hello there thanks for watching it with r.t. international and we start with breaking news because russia has switched ukraine to a prepayment scheme for its gas after the latest deadline expired for key have to pay some of its huge gas bills we can go live now to our tease million of course set of a side gazprom his headquarters in moscow a marina the message is very clear isn't it no money no gas. absolutely andrew of kiev wants any money from any money any gas i should say from russia than it has to pay for it up france and this was confirmed by a gas from spokesperson said get brianna who also added disruptions in the supply of gas from russia to its european partners would continue asked wine bar it's it's up to ukraine to make sure that that gas is supplied to its european partners up there know the structures let's take a listen to what else said get me out of had to say. look we've said many times that today is the deadline when the debt has to be paid since it's not

starting today ukraine's nafta gas is getting supplies according to payments we've received zero payments which means they'll be zero supplies. gas from had already warned the european commission of possible disruptions in the gas transit in the case ukraine decides to soften off the gas on needless to say journalists had many questions but to get beyond of said that those questions would be answered by the head of gas from during the press conference later in the day so we'll be waiting for that in the meantime as we know of course ukraine owes a foreign the have billion dollars to russia and russia has been quite patience and reasonable it even offered a deal that many with the spy business feel to ukraine and not in sales paying half of the debt now and then getting the twenty percent discount on the rest of that that last one hundred dollars off the contractual price per unit and that amounts would be fixed least a year and this would actually save ukraine millions of dollars so russia's

proposal was a reduced three hundred eighty five dollars per thousand cubic meters and even the e.u. energy chief said that that price was quite reasonable odds it wasn't good enough for the ukrainian prime minister i've seen yet saluki he doesn't want to pay anything more than two hundred sixty five dollars and this is actually the price that was agreed upon between russia and ukraine is previous leadership before february's. who and also there was another proposal made by the e.u. the chief and that involved two prizes separate for winter and summer so ukraine would be paid three hundred eighty five dollars in the winter months and three hundred dollars in the summer but that wasn't good enough for russia so now both sides are prepared to take this to the international courts when it comes to ukraine is accusing russia of political game playing when it comes to russia just wants its money back it wants to get the payments for the gas that it has already supplied the ukraine of course many european countries are worried now because they don't want to see a repeat of what happened in two thousand and six and two thousand and nine and

that's when ukraine will start siphoning off gas intended for european countries through their transit pipes and because we know that many european countries are heavily dependent to reliance on russian gas that's why they're so concerned but of course we're talking about stubbornness here and it really is up to them not to resolve this issue. ok thanks for leaving. aside the gazprom headquarters in moscow thank you. want to talk more on the gastro and how it could be resolved let's bring in our get out man got a political science professor at innsbruck university thanks very much for coming on to the program russia's gazprom has said that despite the supplies for ukraine being cut off europe will continue to get its gas which is being sent through ukraine so let's start just by hearing that statement from gas price. goes up with the amount of gas for european consumers is being supplied in full

compliance with those contracts a new crane's nafta gatt is obliged to guarantee deliveries without disruption according to the transit contract now he says a europe is obliged to fulfill its transit obligations should europe be worried that it won't. well ukraine has a record of saddening us guess which was your book a bonus from so it would not be surprising. however at a moment. to guess it's sort of like that it's not terrible because the gas amount is low and sometimes the story sites in western ukraine are fooled so ukraine came with tear gas from joe stalin and he has to do say one of us trying to transfer power plants to europe one needs to wage with russia look return to the practice of two thousand and six and two thousand and eight make it stop yes like to get shots of the euro out yes you know not allowing ukraine to say not the gas or the didn't

continue to get at the gas to europe despite crean sacking off the gas. russia has offered some concessions or a lot of concessions during these gas talks but ukraine insists it won't and even lower gas prices is that ever likely to happen do you think. well the gas price that prime minister yatsenyuk us calls for two hundred sixty eight dollars of course the top of the earth is to be it's not a market price we have to say that russia so scared to some of its neighbors at a much cheaper rate but. margaret it's well worth two hundred sixty eight dollars ukraine is asking for so the price declines promised offered three hundred eighty five dollars is quite reasonable it's about seventeen dollars below the average price of gas gas one gets from its european customers so it should be spirit of what is also theo has to offer to pay just half of the outstanding debts and to get a discount and that would mean that however. ukraine wanted to package deal that

you cannot see and only not agree with russia on the gas price that we can agree on bottom of the outstanding debt ukraine is calculated it's much lower and russia's calculations and they cannot agree on the bottom of guesses that russia transmits ukraine annually because in a country signed two thousand and nine between the us going many of the ukrainian gas company now the. ukraine is out reduce by as much as fifty two billion cubic meters of gas from russia and it's much too much for the parent state of the ukraine economy is what ukraine is also acting mounted for is lowering one of gas that it did buy and really proud so there is a great deal of open. verses and bones of contention between jews and others it seemed a package deal was not possible sure ok look it we're not it can be very much for giving us your analysis that they had man got professor of political science at in

the brook university thank you i think. now as well as ramifications for ukraine europe could also thought over refusal to pay its way and it's been argued that russia's interests are at stake too earlier i discussed the consequences for all parties with. i mean we've heard here that ukraine has been calling on europe to reduce its reliance on russian gas supplies is that possible at all well in fact it's one of the four major misconceptions in this entire gas rhetoric so this is number one yes ukraine says europe's let go of russian gas not buying it but if you look at the map you'll understand that european dependency on russian gas is pretty heavy and in order to lead go russian gas entirely europe will have to get new pipelines and new terminals that cannot be built overnight on top of that is indeed it does help in the gas prices are going to shoot up about fifty percent according to the world bank and that's something that's going to be a really hard sell to european customers first and foremost to ukraine says it can

find alternatives to russian gas supplies. well if you're talking about something that you've been readers have been hyping up about for quite some time and that is the reverse flow that ukraine is supposedly getting from europe conception number two as a matter of fact europe is allowing ukraine to keep some of the gas that europe is getting from russia but of course there's a shortage of gas on the european side so they have to make up for that and they have to buy the more expensive gas so essentially what we have on our hands is the european customers taxpayers already paying an arm and a leg in order to make up for their leaders the political grandstanding. a potential solution people have moved today anyways all the shale gas that's in america how could that help is that possible misconception number three and that is of course the expectation that american share your interests would go to save the day simply not going to happen because it has to go all the way across the atlantic

ocean which is pretty big it's too expensive and right now the price is gas prices in europe are too low for that to happen and it would take about two million tankers to actually get the gas there cross from the united states to europe and they only have four hundred thinkers at the moment so. looks good on paper but it's simply not a possibility in the first evil future or right and so now in the long term that is able to happen russia would then lose a large market wouldn't the european market is huge for russia is that a big concern for russia finally the fourth of final misconception that doomsday scenario that russia to go down the drain without selling its gas could have been true until recently because now russia has this gas deal with china the world consumption is about three trillion cubic meters of gas a year china alone is projected to get to two trillion so there is no shortage of appetite for russian gas in that regard thanks to china as well as locking horns

over gas with russia is still waging a military campaign in ukraine's east near the city of slavyansk one of the one of those hardest hit by the military operation journalists have come under fire a correspondent for marty's video agency was among them and he told us what happened. although we were walking through fields when we heard a machine gun we dived down i kept on filming the self-defense member who was our guide called for backup and a car came to pick us we jumped in we were driving fast and then another shot ripped through our tire and we were driving just the bare wheel for the rest of our journey we thank god we're alive when we made it. the crew was filming a report about the allegations of force responds being used by the ukrainian army they are designed to cause large fires and their use is strictly prohibited by the u.n. another two journalists working for russian t.v. have been held by ukraine's security forces since saturday thousands of people have

been having to abandon their homes in the east to the violence. but to get you can get minute by minute coverage of all the elements in the crane's crisis on air but also online today at r.t. dot com. american police in some cities are being armed to the teeth with military hardware more suited to war zones but it's not because of some suburban security nightmare it is because there's tons of expensive gear left over from the foreign campaigns as marina porter explains some of it has not even been used in the president and the pentagon don't want to gathering dust. as america continues winding down its longest streak of war soldiers are returning home and so is their military arsenal a used armored vehicle that will be used during swat calls and other emergency situations nine foot tall mine resistant trucks specifically designed to survive

roadside bomb attacks are parked all throughout the u.s. local and state police departments have acquired more than four hundred m. wraps and silencers and tens of thousands of m. sixteen machine guns and night vision equipment the new paradigm is this the military paradigm will try. police and the problem with that is when they look at american citizens volved when they see only combatants this is only possible through america's military transfer program created in the ninety's when violence and drug gangs plagued major cities today crime in the u.s. has fallen to its lowest in a generation and the special response team in richland county south carolina looks like this ready to take on the taliban should it invade the south this year the thing that it's doing is basically just making it more and more obvious there are they are being launched their eyes are police forces are being turned into soldiers iraq war veteran emily says her country's law enforcement is being trained

to fight against the public instead of serving to protect it they should be trained to deescalate any violence or aggression that's happening but instead the police are showing up and causing violence and aggression people are just afraid all the time and for no reason our country has never been invaded we have no foreign armies at our doorstep however a sheriff in indiana claims his county needs m. wraps to protect against possible attacks by veterans returning from home i see a lot of paranoia about that because i don't like it usually excuse the armed police like they're intimate you know like the people of afghanistan that we've got a problem using that as a way to militarize the police for whatever they think might be coming in the future a future where america's local police forces will be prepared for war but who will they be warring against marina r.t.

. and even former police chief sal wary of like offices getting. time captain may live side with protests as off their offices at this bright is for demonstrates is that an occupy wall street rally back in twenty eleven and he told us once police have more fire power and ministry crackdowns could become more than that the. high caliber weapons are extremely dangerous they have a very high ricocheting velocity and that means that innocent people are going to get killed and injured they will be shot they can go through doors they can go through cinder block they can go through metal car doors and this type of velocity is not necessary think of kent state. where they shot so many and killed so many innocent people and they were not high caliber weapons can you imagine a massacre that would take place at full force had high caliber weapons they will sell this high quitman the repair the maintenance for this will come from tax

payers money corporate america will make billions off its all for this equipment you heard of the prison industrial complex you heard of the military industrial complex corporate america now wants to make a pub lease industrial complex well they'll make billions off of police departments feel now it seems the scottish or even the splits on whether to quit. was even causing. among themselves according to research will bring you respect from both camps in the price. we'll see that they are very hard to take on. that fact that they're looking.

for the people.

welcome back israel's military has arrested a further forty palestinians in the west bank in connection with the abduction of three jewish teenagers in the palestinian parliament speaker is among those detained while the one hundred fifty people have now been arrested most are members of hamas which is accused of the kidnappings by the israeli prime minister but the group denies involvement human rights activists here he's acting told r.t. that the breakdown of the pace talks is led to an escalation in violence i really hope that we go back to a situation where we talk with the palestinians about ending the conflict about a permanent status agreement which is the real necessity where there is a vacuum where leaders leaders don't talk and i'm sad to see that the israeli government gave up very easily and he's been playing now more of a blame game with that woman and instead of going to go she was stable where where

there is a political vacuum violent elements come in and we see the result i think the best way to prevent such in the future is to have a permanent status agreement agreement between us and the palestinians that will serve israel's national interest best because continuing this situation is as we see brings more and more violence and hardship. for both finest are battling it out in brazil at the moment and it seems to get ahead you need some height the french squad claims it's training sessions have been watched by us at r.t. dot com you can find out whether it's down to rivals handiwork or a devoted fan at the controls also online venting terrorist with entrapment muslim groups in the u.s. to keep the f.b.i. assessing up innocent people to justify a controversial arrest program. to divide among the people of scotland over. independence referendum is closer than ever

a survey even shows that half of families are torn among themselves about which way to vote in september pro independence campaigner jonathan shafi believes a yes vote is badly needed to bring much needed change. for what it's worth as a vassal states for the for the united states and we want to break with that and everything that that means but we all we want to see that we want to have influence we want to have influence with partners the way the economy in britain has been run just know is leading towards massive inequality on a historic skew and i think the real question is can we afford not to vote yes in september. the neck and neck poll results mean both pro and anti independents campaigners have their work cut out over the next three months scotland so will pay told r.t. sophie shevardnadze said that his fellow scot shouldn't be misled by what the separatist politicians play. we have a three hundred year old alive scotland has

a three hundred year old lives with england which is benefit both countries and enable both of us to punch above our weight on the world stage mr samad is not offering independence either way mr salmon who is the leader of the scottish national party of us were discovered offering a rule from brussels because they want to remain part of the european union it wants to offer rule from brussels and financial rule from frankfurt that's not independence. another new sunni militants in north of iraq have captured the populated city of tal afar close to the syrian border at least five people have been killed and another thirty five wounded this latest blow to the nation's shiite led government a week after it lost a vast swathe of territory in the country's north behind it are the radical

central russia has killed at least six people a technical failure is believed to have caused the explosion crushed my ass which also injured seven others another team remain missing i witnesses say year by buildings were also damaged and columns of smoke could be seeing several kilometers away firefighters you see the ground. protecting national security is a reason often rolled out to justify governments keeping quiet about some of their more shady activities but in britain it now goes to the very heart of open and fair justice waving aside the right to an open court hearing the country's been trying to sneak through its first secret criminal trial sara furthur pours. these are the names of the t. defendants in the terrorism case until last week they'd been known only by the initials a b. and c d t twenty application from prosecutors to ban the press and public from

proceedings on the grounds of protecting national security the whole case was close to being completely in secret well the court of appeal blogs that the whole the first ever completely secret criminal trial in the u.k. the judge is saying that the core of the terrorism trial could be heard in secret but that other parts must be public but campaign is the worried that despite the ruling this case marks yet another step toward secret courts becoming a therm part of the british legal system only partial victory large parts of the trial is still going to be held in secret the important issue here is the very issue of open justice because we have a long tradition that for justice to is not enough for justice to be done it's got to be seen to be done this case was an extraordinary departure by initially allowing the whole of the case to be heard in secret at the heart of the debate

around secret courts is this can nationalize security information ever be made public the government's stance there is no there are people who are saying that it's a dangerous precedent they are wrong it's neither dangerous nor a precedent as far as the precedent point is concerned the have been many trials in which part of the hearing has been held in secret for national security reasons as for being dangerous it's not dangerous because the judge will god the firmness of the trial down in public if a top possible will for hundreds of years we've been able to have jurisprudence on cases that involve sensitive issues there are always ways in which the evidence can be presented that will protect for example surveillance or secret service operations there's no. need though to bar the press from it whatsoever if we don't know what's going on what's being reported it could easily lead to an increase in miscarriages of justice ultimately it is the judges that decide there will be

relief no doubt this in this instance the cool choose not to go as far as a fully secret trial the concern now is that with more applications that day won't be far off surface r.t. reporting from london. just a quick reminder of our breaking news this hour russia has switched ukraine to a prepayment scheme for its gas after the latest deadline expired fakih have to pay some of its huge gas bills russia was expecting to receive one point nine billion dollars by six am g.m.t. which is about a half of the total amount of money owed by ukraine since november you says it's still convinced though the gas rabbit when moscow and kiev could be settled soon europe is at risk because it's hugely reliant on russian supplies by ukraine which has previously siphoned off fuel when it's being cut off for not pay. up next. international the victims of domestic violence speak out about trying to

rebuild their lives that. recently four hundred high level russian officials including duma members were someone for a three day military training event that would include the use of various different weapons and lectures about the state of the russian military the stated objective of all of this was to make the average soldier in the army aware of the patriotic attitudes of those who can order them off to fight in theory this is a good idea but the reality is this kind of reeks that sweet stench of an empty p.r. stunt this is not nearly enough to convince the average grunt that the guys in power care about him as far as i understand it in the military they want to push people to break down their psychology and boot camp so they can make new better tougher more patriotic people and obedient ones as well the sort of cutesy who we can camp

will not have any psychological effect these politicians and to be honest i think bureaucrats the world over have it too easy their lives are too comfortable heck all the duma deputies have these nice leather chairs and they have gold watches and assistants and all that stuff i think that if the duma deputies had to suffer through a military hell for one month out of the year the corrupt comfort obsessed weaklings might get squeezed out of the system this training for the elite is a good idea but it needs to be done right and brutal but that's just my opinion. on air and in the financial world. to see these developments happening and stop it

is only taken from the demands of credit. in life there are. you know what it's like some kind of hallucination at some point in time not a very nice one my dear something happens to my mind. just right now i'm more interested in the question of safety is there anybody with you. followers to a picture of myself as a shivering whole mind with trembling hands and a battered i was. with that there is no law against assault when physical abuse occurs three times in my case it was many more notion i only realized that something's happened after i've already done it it's just a few seconds. just sometimes up to he had a few drinks he'd say i want blood. you should go to the man.
