pouring more weapons into the conflict. will solve any of the nation's problems. it is saturday morning here in moscow thanks for joining us. in the last stage of its mission to crush anti-government forces in eastern ukraine and the. cities and towns with shells and bombs and what used to be a village now looks like this. locals are suffering not only from constant fighting but there's also a massive shortage of food water and electricity and in order to bring some relief to the conflict zone russia is trying to send tons of humanitarian aid but the convoy is stuck at the border and. explains why. food

water medicine as well as warm blankets and sleeping bags welcome relief at a time of despair. this russian convoy has hundreds of tons of humanitarian aid destined for eastern ukraine and its help that sorely needed four months of n.t. terror appear ation has the towns and rooms more than two thousand people dead and many without clean water to drink. what a whole ritual which are more. than which. goes over to another very. marketable initially put aboard your craft you don't usually get when are you on the job and you know either. already or to go. knowing you have bush on. your mater and a handful of western governments say russia could be using it as a cover for military support to anti kiev fighters it's not just clear exactly where the convoluted headed but it has certainly be traveling three cranes will

turn regions and the drivers say they are worried about the safety of gravity when you first know you have to back to thriller to stop of the literally sped up on your right from billy kaufman for. all. the back were charged up to you. personally. i was going to do it but you will hear more with the chinese critical person which was the old news when you were in your group for the trip was issued with mushroom in your brain you're on the correct order which is going on record the relief convoy is ready to go but the cross officials say it could take another week for international and ukrainian monitors to verify the cargo and decide on the route it will take he says cease fire could be on the cards these two hundred eighty trucks have already covered one thousand kilometer distance to reach the borders but this is not their final destination now they are waiting to cross into ukraine to bring humanitarian aid they're caring to those when desperate need for

weeks locals have been sheltering in dark basements surviving on doing clean supplies of food and water and these are some of the people calling out for the material help that's already packed and waiting to get illegal. russian ukrainian border and russia has denied one of its armed patrol units across the border into ukraine about came as a response to the claim that was made on the official website of the ukrainian president which went on to state that the unit was destroyed there exists no russian military convoy that crossed the russian ukrainian border either at night or during the day let's hope the ukrainian army only destroyed a friend and not refugees or their own soldiers. well the story emerged went to moscow based correspondents from the u.k. the guardian and the telegraph newspapers posted on twitter that they soar a column of military vehicles with russian plates crossing the border to ukraine

but the spy the fact the only evidence for this was a number of photos showing armored vehicles and roads in identifiable locations on the western media picked up on the story very quickly the e.u. and nato though expressing their concern at the news however the un and washington saying they can confirm any russian unit across the border in the first place we spoke to a number of political analysts and investigative journalists on the matter this invasion happened the ukrainians the nato would have been desperate to get video of this of food to graps out on the internet on the t.v. saying here is proof of a russian putin led invasion of ukraine and they also have to ask this if the russians were going to invade ukraine would they just send in some armored personnel carriers lightly armored vehicles this is the twenty first century in modern times you don't wage a war by rolling in twenty three tanks warfare in modern times as waged with drones and fighter helicopters there were an actual russian military invasion of ukraine

we would know about it and there would be no debate about it would be absolutely insane to russia to you that would be absolutely in changeful for russian armored vehicles to go in they will get a lot advertised what they were knowing that everybody's got cameras everybody can take photographs and knowing the electrical situation regarding this conflict it would be absolutely sure side with russia to do that. and the e.u. has threatened to impose another round of sanctions on russia blaming it for the violence in eastern ukraine however the unity over sanctions appears to be fraying slovakia's the prime minister though criticized them as meaningless a gesture that would threaten economic growth in each member states while the czech president claimed the restrictions themselves are ineffective and could only lead to the spiral of worsening relations that the chief nothing we spoke to the european union's ambassador to russia expressed hope for a return to business as usual as soon as possible of course some companies

may or may may face some losses. will be looking for those of us as a set specially those countries and those exporters of market who have been under scrutiny of. russian situations have faced certain sanctions and barriers they have successfully overcome. however of course we came to maintain that trade we value russian customers and i am sure that i should just i'm a values product and i hope we'll come back to business as usual soon. meanwhile a global campaign in support of a russian photo journalist missing in ukraine is certainly picking up pace at the u.n. the e.u. one of herat here of rights groups have called on kiev to secure a stand ins release a ukrainian government official has admitted during a radio interview the reporter had been arrested but then later denied it standing

as a career photographer who has been covering conflicts all over the world are here a song has pictures for you that hash tag free andrew has been trending on social networks he has been missing for ten days and so far there have only been mixed signals as to where you may be but here on our international we will certainly keep you posted on developments. thanks for joining us here is saturday morning in moscow international the police officer who shot dead an unarmed black teenager in the u.s. has been named the incident triggered a wave of nationwide protests the militarized response. to the rallies and lack of details over the shooting leading to further public outrage. has the latest from the streets of ferguson with a deadly incident took place. we're standing in the central street in ferguson where now in the sixth day in a row protesters are continuing to come out on the street if you can see behind me

is the median store that was georgetown on sunday when the mayhem began here on the streets and right now all of these know all of this noise as the cars passing by honking in support of the protesters that are gathered here now there's about several dozen people people here now but certainly night after night we've seen hundreds if not thousands of people come out onto the streets the name of the police officer behind the killing has been released aaron wilson is twenty eight years old he is white and we do know that he has been kept in a safe place by. everything to be took place we spoke to some people earlier today about what they think obviously this information take a listen. goes like the information being released today you know with the name we kind of one of the information. you know we. got to this little initially i was afraid to come out here because when i saw the militias you know the police out here showing brzezinski threatening weapons in

just presenting themselves in a threatening manner i was afraid to come out here because when i saw it tear gas in and the minute that they were approaching and read arresting people the atmosphere here is certainly shifted somewhat because the first four nights what we saw were pretty violent clashes between very heavily militarized police who were using tear gas and rubber bullets tensions have in fact died down before almost no police presence here on the ground last night still thousands of people came out in a place where we could really loud like now but even louder protests by the use of tear gas by police and ferguson has actually sparked a somewhat unexpected online response from across the atlantic with palestinians taking to twitter advising protesters not to wash their hit with tear gas also urging them to avoid running into the why. and to try and keep calm and it seems that people in focus and should take these tips into consideration due to the

severe side effects of tear gas temporary blindness for example breathing problems miscarriages heart problems and liver damage as well but to gas is not the only tool used by police to counter the mostly peaceful rallies in ferguson security forces have also had on m. four rifle in their office and all of a weapon used in various military conflicts he said also being reinforced by light armored vehicles which are of course used in afghanistan and iraq and if that's not enough in m.k. eleven sniper rifle also being used in combat was seen as necessary also to tackle the peaceful rallies on a former police officer stephen downing believes officers in focus and are acting as an occupying force. a number of studies show that once you put on the gear as the policemen you're trained you start asking like a military unit like you're in a patrol and unfortunately what happens is the psychology changes in a lot of these little policemen when they're approaching a house or a swat team or

a it's like they're moving in on our car that supposedly we're the masters and they're the servants but you know at first when they're telling people to back not twenty five feet in the zone they're violating their free speech rights you have a right to walk up to a civil servant and say sir why you doing this why you're there pointing guns at people and chasing them away that's not a policeman anymore again that's the military and that's what we're dealing with most police agencies operate basically anyway the lot of the local all city councils and politicians just let them go. as i've written in the number of instances i've seen. the local citizens get they get down to the local city council meeting they get their signs and they say we're not moving into the changes thing it's not your own seat tyranny in this country this is this is the face of the government today what you're seeing in ferguson it's only going to get worse if we don't back you know. and we've got our votes. the stories for you on our website including nuclear fallout over the.

thousands of people have fled their homes to escape the onslaught meanwhile e.u. foreign ministers have agreed to supply arms to the kurdish forces in iraq to help them find the militants. assessing what that could lead to. hot on the heels of the u.s. and france the u.k. has announced its readiness to supply arms directly to kurdish forces which are trying to fight off brutal jihadists in northern iraq the u.k. has said we will also consider favorably any requests for supplies of arms we already shipping ammunition and supplies mother eastern european countries into a bill but there are fears the lessons of the past haven't been learnt it's a quick fix to to think that you can arm a group or send craft and bomb and so on that doesn't deal with the problem the main problem is that the politicians don't plan ahead to always reacting to crises in syria the west backed the rebels who then warped into the

a ceramic state the very problem now being faced across the border in iraq and the two thousand and eleven western backed overthrow of colonel gadhafi led to three years of political chaos in libya with weapons again falling into the wrong hands and according to the un flooding west africa now the kurds need help fighting jihadists but what happens if they win with western weapons in hand let's not forget that by arming the kurdish fighters what is actually being encouraged is to break up of iraq as a sovereign entity to now on the kurdish fighters testifies to a tokenistic and indeed a short term so new. to a very real problem which is to fight back. the kurds the desperate for independence from iraq and when they make state was a problem only in the south of the country the prospect of an autonomous north began to look at spain a bull last month one iraqi kurdish leader told local lawmakers to plan for an

independence referendum and then we should be encouraging secession in the middle east or simply sort of being sort of from the government and everything and it's quite risky independence would be complicated because it would create problems in turkey syria and of course of the iraq itself but to encourage them in this way is . potentially breaking iraq government sources in the british media and reportedly came to stress that the u.k. is not moving towards direct military intervention in iraq and that sending arms is consistent with the government's response to a humanitarian crisis critics fear arming because scared facilitate the breakup of iraq but for those in favor the need to stop the islamic states murderous campaign is so pressed saying that leaders may have resigned themselves to achieving their short term goal of driving terrorists out of northern iraq first i'm worrying about

the long term consequences later boyko artsy london may be about to open up the aussie world where thousands of turned out in tripoli to protest against the parliament's call for international intervention to restore security to the country and made the request as clashes between rival militia groups continue in and all around the capital and no government has said there was willing to commit forces however the un special envoy to libya has said he plans to go to tripoli next week to try to negotiate a cease fire between two of the main. and clashes have broken out in pakistan. capitol between police and government protesters tens of thousands took to the streets calling for the prime minister's resignation reportedly sixty thousand demonstrations gathered after the arrival of two opposition leaders in iran and a well known taliban cleric. represents the biggest challenge yet to the premier.

his government is accused of corruption and abuse of power. and the outbreak of ebola in west africa will take at least six months to bring under control that's according to the charity doctors without borders. say the spread has created a wartime situation in the worst affected states of sierra leone liberia and guinea where medical services are at a breaking point there have been nearly two thousand reported victims so far. in four years since its launch london's bike hire scheme is proving to be one of the most efficient and popular cycling systems in europe but there are also problems that can be soft pedaled among which are draining costs of the program and actually all those of cycling safety issues. reports. there are now over five hundred bike sharing programs around the world double the number from

just a few years ago london's bike scheme set up by the previous macin livingston is now the second largest cycle highest system in europe it remains an affordable and enjoy the way to travel around the city so far so good but what's the future for cyclists in the british capital. region being put in place which allows cyclists to go. around the city on quieter less populous roads there's a cycle superhighways there's already several of those in the city in another five . years but to the math adds up the project is draining enormous funds and barclays well and. it's association next year the bank pays just a sixth of the cost of keeping the bicycles on the road and transport for london said it was left with a bill of over eleven million pounds last year that leaves the u.k. taxpayer remaining one thousand three hundred and eighty eight pounds per bike

cycling safety is also a major concern after a number of deaths and major accidents are london's roads safe enough campaigners have said that local authorities need to do more to protect the people on bikes. london has promised segregated cycle tracks and new traffic free public spaces putting almost a billion pounds into pro bike reforms this includes redesigning london's roads transforming badly designed junctions and banning lorries that lack up to date safety features. however as the scheme expands companies say that more should be done but when he came in we said to the mayor you need a good network of routes easy routes that people can get to where they want to go and easy to easy to follow with good directions and they haven't done that they're still talking about doing that to push bikes become an integra part of traveling

around london and the numbers of uses both new and regular continues to grow but despite the danger is it does seem to be putting london is all tourists off myself included. expansion it's obvious that the bara spikes here in london are a great success rolling the idea out around cities in the u.k. and around the world as a healthy eco friendly form of transport the benefits are clear but the public safety traffic issues and road infrastructure must stay the mezz main priority of the scheme. a lot of them and we come to you live from moscow it's art international thanks for joining us next on the program boom bust unless you're joining us in the u.k. a very good morning to you. joining you and you're going underground.

rickards is on the show today and he's sharing with us his off the mystic thoughts on euro and kind of a low but they're optimistic that our chief correspondent manilla chen is sitting down with me later in the show to talk about atlanta so can the ones that glimmers gambling destination regain it's possible henri we're looking in through it and it all starts right now. with. our lead story today europe and its non existant growth the eurozone has been in the pression since the financial crisis economic growth within your land has been much worse than in the u.s. as well as economic growth in the second quarter of two thousand and fourteen came

in at zero europe doesn't seem to be breaking out of this depression any time soon back in two thousand and ten two thousand and twelve europe had a very serious crisis known as the sovereign debt crisis which it addressed by having the european central bank offer a debt backstop to every country that caused borrowing costs to plunge removing fears that a country would default and be forced to we become. currency now for liquidity that looks good thanks to the e.c.b. but the economy it still hasn't grown which it needs to do that's really important and sadly aside from this nothing else has really worked the e.c.v. has let alone growth and inflation plummet and countries are still very much employing austerity in one form or another the employment situation in europe is much worse than the us as well and with mass unemployment inflation on a downward trend and stagnant stagnant industrial production economists like paul krugman worry that europe is turning into japan japan has spent more than twenty

years in a deflationary depression and with its aging population europe also has similar demographics to japan these cv has deployed tools to increase liquidity but the federal reserve can do much more to avoid an economic depression than the e.c.b. can an example of this would be very simply quantitative easing we all know about q.e. and of course the e.c.b. unlike the fed has a primary mandate to maintain price stability which it defines as two percent inflation per year so it's not required to achieve low unemployment however producer edward harrison has pointed out these he also has a responsibility to quote support the general economic policies in the union with a view to contributing to the achievement of the objectives of the union these include full employment and balanced economic growth you know that quote that comes directly from the e.c.b. is website but even with only one primary and i mean primary mandate to handle the e.c.b. has.
