the million degrees with the. north to sell from st petersburg to france we travel in search of the song. we've got the future of. ukraine shoals of russian border checkpoint down says president poroshenko announces a seven day cease fire in the east as part of his peace plan. also as the u.s. increases spending on what's already the most expensive war plane in history yet another technical glitch plagues the project. the u.s. jumpstart the campaign offering cash for ideas to grow its transatlantic partnership with the e.u. but the move is being seen by critics as an attempt to push through a corporate agenda.

thanks once again for joining us here on r.t. my name is neil harvey this is r.t. international. a russian checkpoint on the border with ukraine has come under shelling as a result a border guard has been injured with shrapnel the attack occurred a self-defense forces in eastern ukraine clashed with the army the military is said to have used more to far we then hit the checkpoint it happened when refugees were crossing the border as we heard from a witness. who wanted to help people who are crossing from ukraine so i went to the border to offer my assistance there were lots of children in the refugee camp and i brought them sweets to cheer them up i heard the gunfire as i was coming up to the border people were screaming and running machine there were several gunshots it was very scary to see women and children crying for some time and when i came back to the checkpoint was on fire. ok let's get the very latest details on this from

marty's room and costs every man woman can you tell us about this development that's right small the border guard was injured he is apparently in a very severe state being cared for the moment meanwhile the moscow has demanded an explanation and investigation from the authorities in kiev over the shelling of the russian border point where night meanwhile the key of defense ministry denies any such thing has ever taken place but we have. we have the russian border guard their representative who gave us this information. for the national side of the deal we were inside the building when this horrific shelling began we started moving everyone at the checkpoint to safety one of the officers suffered a head injury at the time of the incident around two hundred refugees were crossing the border. also russian border control service said that a bus with thirty six children refugees was shot at overnight as well now these all

these children are safe and sound on the russian territory in their will stop region in one of the refugee camps also on friday night in a separate incident say ukrainian checkpoints border control points was shelled as well as their results to servicemen who had been injured eighty of so eighty soldiers have crossed the border into russia were they were cared for and the injured people were also cared for there as well meanwhile russian russia is now strengthening its border along with ukraine. thank you to our correspondent remind costs of reporting live for us from ukraine. now the military crackdown in eastern ukraine has caused hundreds of deaths so far and displaced thousands of people but now president poroshenko has imposed a seven day ceasefire under a new peace plan to take a look at the details it includes an amnesty for those who agreed to lay down their

arms and who haven't committed grievous crimes also the creation of a ten kilometer wide buffer zone along the border with russia changes to the constitution to guarantee the free and safe use of the russian language also mentioned in a decent realisation of power to the eastern regions early local and parliamentary elections but one of the plans top points that's the guarantee safety for all of the negotiating parties although part of himself is refusing to hold talks with leaders of the self-proclaimed republics. well before the ceasefire was actually implemented the army had been targeting cities across the east and often fatal results. but it would. do we. need to get with. what has changed.

in this family you just seen was left devastated when a mortar shell hit their backyard a young mother was killed on the spot five year old son was taken to hospital with multiple head wounds and their doctors fought for five hours in a bid to save his life but he died of his injuries on the operating table mark sloboda a senior lecturer in international relations and security studies at moscow state university believes that president poroshenko peace plan is actually an ultimatum. peace by definition is negotiated and poor shango has already declared that there will be no negotiation with the political and militant leaders on the ground in the eastern ukraine so this is not a peace plan this is an ultimatum a demand for the unconditional surrender under promise of extermination as well this decentralization is not clearly defined but what we have seen so far is that only includes local executive committees big governors would still have the right

to be overruled and appointed by kiev this declaration of a ceasefire is merely a p.r. move by the poor janko regime in the run up it's not a surprise that the declared ceasefire ends on the very day that poroshenko was supposed to sign the association agreement. moscow's warned some point in pershing because plan could lead to greater bloodshed rather than actually resolve the crisis and we will report more on that on line. next so this is the thirty five stealth fighter jet america's most advanced and most expensive war plane and it has just been given yet another boost. and in new defense spending bill and that's despite the pentagon having already shelled out nearly four hundred billion dollars on this development and to cover the cost the plane is now being touted to fallen by rina port explained the f. thirty five stealth fighter jet is the crime to look ram of military planes.

and the pentagon's most expensive conventional weapons program it's a game changer the world's only fifth generation fighter jet is manufactured by lockheed martin combining state of the art technology with highly advanced avionics and maneuverability the pentagon plans to buy nearly twenty five hundred f. thirty five but delays and cost increases have left u.s. lawmakers frustrated over the three hundred eighty five billion dollar price tag and that's where america's allies come in. lockheed martin has turned to international partners including britain australia and canada collectively the countries have invested more than twenty billion dollars buying up the war craft a weapon that many experts view as a global gamble there's never been anything anywhere near as expensive and the entire process is one in which the costs can only go up.

the other problem is that the more they spend the more the united states in the manufacture and now a whole bunch of other countries become invested more they have to go ahead in any of these countries that want to because i feel that they have no choice boosting demand from foreign investors is believed to be essential for the pentagon and lockheed martin why because the more f. thirty five are produced the cheaper each jet is to build and maintain marina port diana r.t. . the f. thirty five has been suffering one setback after another and in the most recent case the entire fleet was grounded and testing was suspended. after one of the planes suffered an oil leak but the engines are not the only parts where they say it is experiencing problems in fact as we can now see the plane has been suffering well documented hot spots and cracks had to tail the pentagon even prohibited it

from from flying within forty kilometers of a thunderstorm that was out of fear is that its fuel tank could actually explode if it was struck by lightning we spoke to the actress designer who says on top of the technical glitches the f. thirty five program is also plagued by bureaucracy it's one of the worst airplanes we've ever designed. for a lot of reasons but the most important reason is that it was compromised by having to do three different jobs you can never make a good airplane if you don't focus on a single draw a single mission and then they made it even worse by saying that we'd save money by giving it up among three services so now you have three missions pulling the airplane in different directions now you have three services three bureaucracies adding their parochial points of view to the airplane it was a complete mess and mind you this is the most expensive single project that the

that the defense department has ever undertaken. still to come this hour we'll be taking a look at solving the ugly side of the beautiful game russia is facing a tough task to contain football hooliganism as it prepares to take over from brazil but some people think the issue is being overblown. and save it is to find out how an online technology used as evidence of criminality against one u.s. hacker is now permitted for a giant corporation. an online push by the u.s. to promote a transatlantic partnership deal with europe has been met with criticism on both sides of the ocean twenty thousand dollars is being offered to anyone who comes up with lucrative trade ideas but opponents say that that figure is tiny compared to the potential damage the massive corp agreement could be to oliver has more. the united states has been accused of a cynical propaganda campaign after a tweet originated from its embassy just behind me here. this tweet was with regard

to the transatlantic trade and investment partnership between europe and the united states now the tweet was offering up to twenty thousand u.s. dollars for any projects people could come up that would protect the treat deal in a good light snow it has come in for some scathing criticism from people here in europe mostly because of worries over a decrease in standards the standards for products in europe are far higher than they are in the united states also on workers' rights as well now this is seen and vajra mentalist environmentalists trade unions and health campaign is all railing against this trade deal to put that into perspective of the public opinion here in europe when it comes to the environment ninety six percent of germans say they have faith in european environmental regulation well only two percent believe in

regulations inforced in the united states has also been controversy surrounding genetically modified foods not like here in europe people have demonstrated against them however there is that because of us labeling laws they could inadvertently become into the european markets so all of these things the same criticism of this well it's kind of backfired they have come in for far more criticism online because of this. well the transatlantic trade deal does look good on paper the partnership would allow the removal of trade barriers and he regulate three differences hindering growth of the u.s. or ease economy would be washed away plus america and europe's collective g.d.p. could be boosted by around two hundred fifty billion dollars critics believe that some pieces of the puzzle just don't fit their word corporations would end up ruling governments and taxpayers therefore would foot the bill for anything that

could go wrong and it would be almost impossible to hold any corporation to account because of the sheer size of the structure and the lack of transparency america michael shank of the friends committee on national legislation believes that all of that is just an opportunity for the u.s. and the e.u. to flex their muscles while it's good for investors it's bad for health it's bad for the environment it's bad for labor and it's bad for regulations that countries and states have worked for decades to institute so those are some of the biggest concerns and what it says to russia or what it says to china with the t p p is that we don't want you a part of this conversation and in this very globalized interconnected world particular on trade because we don't have many barriers between us and e.u. already so when we're doing t.j. it's not really about removing trade barriers because the tariffs are quite low it's about saying to the rest of the world we have this partnership it's exclusive and you're not going to be a part of it ok you are going to be a part of this program i hope plenty more international news on the way after the

a mother and take young child killed in an army assaulted ukraine and made presidential cease fire promises just military offensive and radical groups claiming to protect the rights of jews intimidate their victims with death right. what other media turns a blind eye to you get on aussie. welcome back you're watching r.t. international next russian football fans may cause the national team to be deducted points in the world cup for reportedly displaying near nazi banners during their side's first match in brazil a proven it would be yet another blot on an already full copybook of russian football hooliganism that also features pitch attacks must street rallies and nationalist clashes but they could to prepares to host the next big tournament in four years it's working hard on finding solutions. but. i

showing support for your team in russia could mean this this was. or this. i. will call them in one thousand nine hundred eighty when spotlight was playing cisco and moscow we had a huge fight of the right really warriors came up against us there was more than eight hundred people involved in a brawl but he holds an option and that is just one of the fights i see described now. fan culture has changed massively russia still a stereotype of an english football hooligan or an italian ultras is no longer applied to us we went our own way now there are no loud criminal cases against you compared to the ninety's back in the soviet days football was considered one of the nation's prides history's best goalkeeper left the team which won the first ever european championship and the belief of revolutionary managers with the break up of

the soviet union football just as many other spheres of life suffered a major setback it may be but along with these problems came. it's still unclear what caused this surge in violence but in recent years russian hooligans have remained visible from violent pitch invasions to mass street rallies and racist incidents involving swastikas in the stands near nazi views and phobia are among the most debate issues back in twenty to one a fan was killed during fighting in moscow that escalated into ethnic violence thousands of ultras made themselves heard right outside the walls of the kremlin. politically motivated people have always been close to find groups not only have they propagandize the cult of violence but they explained why this violence was needed that's why i know c.v.s. a popular because force and violence are the bases of naziism and fascism but for more and found of russia's largest fan movement the market than i have believes the

issue is often blown up in the press and problems are usually solved even before they appear. who spearheaded events at the my down in ukraine some of them are in the national guard now so potentially this is a very dangerous part of it. but. very clever strategy with hooligan communities so there's no danger from the in russia these fights happen every weekend but no one knows if they happen out of town in forests and strictly upon agreement of. the twenty thirteen movie football. tells the story of a firm of hooligans consisting partially of white collar workers where death and destruction rub shoulders with love and friendship one of the characters keeps asking the question why do you fight this your meetings. with all of. the movies slogan is we can not change real life has proven they can seely it's just a matter of whether the rest of the world will be happy with this evolution of the

says that more than a million people have been displaced by the raging sectarian violence in iraq the numbers only expected to rise as the country's army tries to push back the advance of an al qaida offshoot isis which is eyeing the takeover of baghdad and establishing an islamic state is already in control of a vast parts of the rock including the second largest city of mosul meanwhile the first of the tree hundred u.s. military advisers promised by washington to iraqi security forces in iraq later today and international studies professor joshua landis believes that washington is reluctant to take any decisive steps to resolve the crisis because of the problems the two thousand and three invasion cause and you can watch the full version of the following interview next on a boy whose will depart that will be on r.t. tomorrow just for now though here's a quick preview. this entire isis episode shows the incredible strategic blunder of president george w.

bush in india attacking iraq and casting down the cinese from the top of society to the bottom destroying the state of iraq which kindled this sectarian struggle the united states is debating today about how much support to give to maliki many people believe that he is too sectarian that if america supports him it will offend sudanese turn send the world against the united states and alienate our support in the gulf therefore they're very reluctant to get in with direct military support they would like to get diplomats on the ground to begin negotiating as they did during the occupation. let's round up some other world news for you now doctors without borders say the outbreak of the deadly ebola virus is out of control as it continues to sweep across africa for the world health organization more than three hundred thirty

people have been confirmed dead so far cases have been reported in sierra leone liberia and guinea evo risk kills almost ninety percent of infected patients a. car bombing in afghans capital kabul has left a civilian dead and three more injured the attack initially targeted a senior government official who works for a body tasked with negotiating with the taliban official escaped hurts because he was traveling in an armored car groupers admitted to being behind the attack. and security forces in china's restive west have repelled an assault on a police station killing thirteen of the attackers three officers have been injured as attackers drove a vehicle laden with explosives into the building. michel's blame local militants for the assaults china has seen a rise of insurgency in recent months with deadly bombings and attacks targeting

civilians. i do hope you will join me at the top of the hour we'll have the very latest news headlines for you stay with us because coming up next on r.t. a documentary about the history of selective breeding joint. so are we going back to iraq recently violence has flared up as insurgents are taking cities from the current iraqi government and response to this chaos obama declared that his administration is prepared to take military action whenever our national security is threatened oh well since the weapons of mass destruction were never found a rock and the current militants can't shoot a key forty seven over the ocean i don't see how us national security is at risk

now or before the iraq war even started but on the other hand the flow of oil from us but tamia well that might be at risk but sometimes i forget that obama is a politician and just a day later he was quoted as saying quite the opposite about the same situation declaring that we will not be sending u.s. troops back into combat in iraq which sounds great to my ears do you wait yet another few days and now he is saying that they want to send at least two hundred seventy five troops to provide support and security for u.s. personnel and the u.s. embassy in baghdad i think this orwellian attitude towards the truth comes from two factors one lying works and obama gets away with it and to the fear of looking weak presidents have to act confident like they were total control with an awesome plan even when they have no idea what they're going to do i think this is the case with this iraq issue but that's just my opinion. what about washington getting tougher on its allies like saudi arabia because it's

no secret that saudi money was a crucial factor in the rise of the extremist can a bomb or to take it out on the united states dragged their feet they did declare early on in the uprising that al qaida was a terrorist organization and about the mossad and others were terrorist organizations and proscribed them but it did very little to carry through with that and to force its allies to equally prescribe those groups. is it possible to ask you a question of you about the story of youzhny. they didn't. know you know as the realization program and stories of cost of my job and i'm sure
