bank. well come this is r t international we're live from moscow you with me to bang one thing. russia's gas problem has stopped i guess surprised to you clean up to kill failed to pay a part of its huge debt by the final deadline artie's marina kossovo reports from outside the guest joins headquarters in moscow. well actually heard from the c.e.o. of gas from alexei miller and he's been meeting with russia's prime minister dmitry medvedev and once again miller said that to ukraine's position is a form of blackmail. the position of the ukrainian side can be described as open blackmail the ukrainian government the prime minister wanted gazprom to allow
10:02 am
ukraine to pay an ultra low price for gas like those in the customs union and if such low prices were not granted to kiev ukraine said it would not pay back its gas that to russia it also said it would take our gas without any payment and in volumes it needs of course such demands are unacceptable for the russian side that's why gas prom and to the prepayment method at ten am this morning we also know that ukraine's prime minister arseniy yatsenyuk has imposed a state of emergency on the country's energy sector here of course now it has to pay up front if it wants any gas of from russia not the price that russia was offering. four thousand cubic meters even the e.u. energy chief said that the price was reasonable but again when it comes to ukraine's prime minister siniora he doesn't want to pay any more than two hundred sixty five dollars and that is the price that was agreed with the previous leadership in ukraine before february's so right now since both sides are can't agree on the price or take matters to the international court ukraine is accusing
10:03 am
russia of playing political games russia is simply looking to get its money back now of course as we know many your kitty and countries are dreading this period right 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 was called siphoning off gas and time that for them through its transit pipelines and since of course we know that many european countries depend heavily on russian gas their concerns are understandable but right now the ball is in kiev sports and already we know as are so that many european countries are worried that we will see ukraine siphoning gas off of them since they can't get their hands on more. now to summarize the facts for you ukraine so it follows russia more than four billion dollars what russia demanded to when it set its final deadline was that it received at least half of the money moscow has stressed that it will continue supplying europe as before ukraine has been demanding that moscow
10:04 am
cut the price on gas supplies now the e.u. has called gas for his final offer of three hundred eighty five dollars per thousand cubic meter is a reasonable proposal and as you can see that number is no other than the estimates of what many e.u. countries pay for russian gas. and here's how the gas pipeline that goes out from russia to the e.u. the majority goes through ukraine territory well despite assurances from moscow of a surprise you want to suffer gazprom says that kiev has threatened that it will take as much transit guess as it needs for free which it has done before and ukraine's prime minister samy if the nuke has ordered a review of the transit fees for russia's get supplies to europe the editor in chief of business news europe says all this is leaving brussels war eat russia has always been a reliable supplier of gas to europe even in the cold war when we really were enemies with then the soviet union. the soviet union continued to deliver gas the
10:05 am
problem here with you know the insecurity in russian gas supplies is not russia it's the fact that it has to go through ukraine and ukraine is more or less bankrupt has been unable to pay for its gas and so when it needs gas it simply siphons off gas that was headed to the west now or us will do if they do stop supplying ukraine gas they will continue to supply what their contractural we obliged to send to western europe the question here is whether ukraine will simply send that gas and not take any for itself and that question remains open. as i was walking over guess where the russia still waging a military campaign in ukraine's east yeah the city of slovyansk one of the places hard as hit by the military operation now journalists of also come under fire our correspondent from our teaser up the video agency was among them he told us what happened. actually that's because it. although we were walking through

prospect of the u.k.'s of first secret trial of two suspected terrorists in the name of national security as defenders of the british justice system up in arms but last week an appeals court flashed the red light to plan questions still remain though some of the main proceedings will be kept behind closed doors anyway i see sarah firth explains. the trial of these t. terror suspects was always the first fully secret criminal trial to be heard in the u.k. now prosecutors had been fishing for that the press to be banned from every part of the proceedings on the grounds of national security now the course of appeal blocked last week so what can now be reported the judge's introductory remarks the prosecutors a printing speech and the verdicts and sentencing phase can all be reported but the court of appeal also ruled that the core parts of this terrorism trial will still
10:23 am
be heard in secret and we can take a listen now as to why the details of how this terror trial should be heard have proven so controversial 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. g. 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 course of the pill blocks that attempt to hold the first ever completely secret criminal trial in the u.k. the judge is saying that the call 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 yet another step toward secret calls becoming

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 to go to the bottom of 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 this saeed there will be released name down this in this instance the cool cheese not to get it as a police secret trial the concern now is that with more applications that day won't be far off the surface. reporting from london. right after the break a victims of domestic violence speak out about trying to rebuild their lives but if you're watching us in the u.k. be going underground with absent the times the i'll be back see.

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 or lectures about steve 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
10:27 am
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 stocks only take in the demand for credit. and life there and then i'm hot.
