shutoffs eastern ukraine now with war waging in the korean president petro poroshenko is vowing to boost military spending by three billion dollars but where will that money come from leading economists ok as finances are in tatters and here's why now on the surface things may seem rosy after the international monetary fund granted kiev a seventeen billion dollar loan but it came with conditions most importantly the national debt to g.d.p. ratio should be no higher than sixty percent it's now predicted to reach eighty percent percent in just four years time economic shrinkage in july is six and a half percent last year it was only one point three percent on top of that ukrainian i was nine billion dollars in various debt payments this year this is coming when its currency as an all time low. economist jeffrey summers what hear from him later i have to interrupt our coverage now because russian foreign minister sergei lavrov is giving

a press conference on the latest developments in eastern ukraine let's listen in so we're. agreements really agreements. finally reached the destination. today distribution of the humanitarian aid begins. the representatives of the international red cross committee participate in this they advise local authorities on. the distribution plans. and we expect everything to be. those who need aid almost all the population of the lugansk region and even in donetsk region those who need the aid will receive it we hope. still it is understandable that the convoy situation was not healthy we tried to.

act within the norms and principles of the international humanitarian law we received the initial agreement of the create inside which was confirmed by the note of the minister of foreign affairs of ukraine of the twelfth of august we worked with contact with the customs services of ukraine their representatives were present and are present as i understand on the russian border crossing the nets. so everyone had an opportunity to make sure including the mass media to make sure that there was nothing in those trucks except the humanitarian cargo and all the trucks after delivering the cargo have returned to the top of the russian federation. this is i'd like to express the gratitude to everyone who despite many difficulties. mostly the subjective not objective difficulties

helped us to implement this humanitarian action including the mass media your colleagues had an opportunity to make sure even before the convoy began movement long before your colleagues had an opportunity to make sure that those car this cargo was of a humanitarian nature. undoubtedly that helped to the civilian population the humanitarian crisis has not ended and in the press releases. of their international red cross committee it is said that the lugansk population needs humanitarian aid and the staff of the i.c.r.c. in lugansk report. that the shelling of the

waters of the city continue that there is phone communication lack of portable what are the lack of medicine and many people do not know about their relatives. so the red cross highlights a necessity to fix the situation and urges all the sides to. not use the weapons. non-selective character and to. not allow attacking civilians objects or people such as a hospital was transported and the fact that those objects are shelled can be seen through the reports of your colleagues. on the side. markets churches gardens schools state. that happened

recently a stadium was damaged. and i believe that the military experts understand that better than all of the present here including me that. is not just excused by the. wrongful shooting or some accident we have also studied the recent reports of the special o.e.c.d. monitoring mission which. they say about the. deteriorating humanitarian situation in the southeast of ukraine it is linked with the calm but actions that continue it is linked with the airstrikes on houses and other facilities utility facilities of donbass. from the i.c.r.c. and from there always see the council of europe. from the un humanitarian

institutions from the leaders of many states there are calls to continue the aid. the representatives of the red cross speak for that yesterday announced that they are going to expand their activities in lugansk and on the east of ukraine and they are going to increase the amount of their operations of the international red cross committee these operations are implemented with active participation of donors and russia is interested to continue to be one of the sponsors of that we. expect that the ukrainian government will know that if government has sent their own humanitarian convoy to. theel lugansk region and they are being distributed that is good we know about the plans of the european union to. humanitarian assistance and

aid to the civilian population of ukraine and russia will continue to participate in all those efforts. yesterday we sent an official note to the minister of ukraine where we informed about our intention to prepare and now the humanitarian. we have included the detailed list of the cargo that is planned to be sent and expressed our hopes for close cooperation with the ukrainian authorities in agreeing on all the necessary formalities we expect that it take. not such a long time taking into account our existing experience. the situation is getting worse in the humanitarian plane so. slow down violate the commitments of. states on international humanitarian law. so we would

like to agree on all the conditions of sending the second on the same route to within the same parameters with the participation of ukrainian customs officers and border guards in the nearest days. convinced that we must do that this week. the same note was sent to the i.c.r.c. and we invited the representatives of the red cross to continue our cooperation. so we hope that. the misunderstandings that took place during the first humanitarian convoy and there will be no artificial slowdown in this operation we. urgings to close cooperation to the transparency of what we're doing and i'd like to highlight the fact that the first humanitarian convoy in the end.

actually delivered the humanitarian cargo. without any incidents which gives us an opportunity to expect that a second convoy. would be. easier to implement we are urging our ukraine colleagues and the international red cross committees to actively copper rate in this humanitarian mission and we in our turn will be ready to use. our contacts with the self-defense. in order to guarantee the security on their side not only for the russian convoy but for. humanitarian aid humanitarian cause know that the ukrainian side wants to southeastern ukraine we have a clear reference to that in our note to the foreign ministry of that

country so i was like also to speak about the tomorrow's meeting in minsk the meeting of the presidents of the customs union russia kazakhstan and belarus with the president of ukraine. with the participation of the european commission representatives we expect that there would be three commissioners who will arrive in minsk. and the main. issue on the agenda will be consideration of the economic link between the customs union and ukraine between the european union and ukraine. which is an important subject. we. urged our partners to begin. politicised professional and pragmatic dialogue. conversation about how the

commitments of ukrainian state on the free trade area with the c i s and. the commitments of which the agrarian side is ready to take with him but not yet rectified association agreement with the e.u. . coincide so how they're actually made to put together. this topic as you know. is laying with the. existing prices because the accusations. towards president xi are no coverage last november were. the association agreement and that served as a pretext to. begin the possible action to organize the protests which ended in a military an armed. and before that moment and after that moment we

regularly urged the card is to sit down at the same table and talk about the situation how would we find the. solutions to. where there is the contradiction of the commitments of ukraine towards the c.i.s. free trade area and the e.u. association. we are speak for. of relations of ukraine with the customs union. with the european union in economy and we are convinced that if there is goodwill if there is. the desire to be governed by the norms of the w.t. euro and other norms of international law which are in trying to be signed and act

is agreements we believe that this will help to agree on those issues there have been consultations recently as you know on economic problems between the russian and ukrainian experts and the interim results of those consultations we will be reported tomorrow in. so we hope that they will help to begin a business. conversation which would take into account all the legitimate interests all the participants we expect that tomorrow at our meeting. the problems of the humanitarian crisis will also be discussed in this or that moment and that all the participants would call on humanitarian aid to be delivered without barriers to all those who need it in the south east of ukraine. and of course everyone expects that the meeting in minsk will allow us to exchange

opinions on. the situation. of the beginning of the political process to settle the crisis in ukraine. today. we hear a lot of statements about that that political dialogue must initiated we hear that the foremost is not the only form of to that there are other four months which must be used there is the norm on water there is the geneva. and i. remind you that this is the ukraine russia the u.s. and the european union prime minister yatsenyuk spoke about this format. and there in the garage special representative of the president on saturday the crisis they spared that this geneva with the participation of not only the e.u.

but also with the us is the best one. we. read into any form and president putin highlighted that. the most important thing the form what must bring practical results so that we would move from the. the civil war in ukraine to the national dialogue and forming the national unity. which was. mentioned on the twenty first of january february. the agreements between. mid between misters one has yet to new political uncertainty baulk and president you know which this national unity is. actually. after this agreement on the twenty first of february was broken by the so opposed moves no one has remembered anything about that but now this topic has returned to this

political discourse because it's a really big fear to move out of this severe conflict which we have been witnessing in ukraine. we are raising two kids by us who. we are as you are so many things they don't want for the aging of the world and you for what it's maybe i suggest it's good meals is the most important it is the substance of our negotiations and if it's focused on the substance it's. just taken to according to our sources and. is only half true. or wherever they are for want was launched and still several seats were distanced it wasn't altered this say it was the state. of the ukrainian politics to start with and i want to play a constitutional so this is the beginning of the process. which of

course is if. all your friends. including all the political forces and all the regions of so when we expressed our readiness working if it was a consideration in the way their toes are achieved a great. bit implementor it's still the same as relevant. for the no one four months since that's includes russia ukraine germany and france as a foreign ministers of the homes and for want heard several ratings will lead to strong words on the servants' rooms which is just your own joy because clearly them growing desperation was adulterous as being a priority of his her insulin generation and was a serious fire written on prisoner sheriff she's from sugar because the same is relevant for them to lose if all they express himself is your final history of the process the divorce salts and their pretty so we could arrange to stall shit and as

soon as possible you will call us expendable and says why are reasonable preconditions because no mere ashamed to. be put in their shirt or some care for doing which which they always first preconditions. because weeks before it was to swallow you up to call becomes worse you were introductory warks or as were a train when trolling the government of negotiation stance and you for once just as our initial probes are cranial parsers to find grills which you already took on them to improve going with relatives or friends or consolation if rangers come to fore and overturn this girl go back on the way of all the things you lost. yes and observe all the rights of her as an international and one which one or interests of the second and her cones and very specific pressures and reverentially and of course the shells and centralize racial oath. also our interests and our terms or

fall in with what should also be subject to negotiation and this is to. go. and imposing and it's right from the center on their program ration. which is impossible in the current trends or she. will be able to read her in this role all foreign policy and it's going approach and their current process will be going to buy the same principles especially given these principles under sharia cones over all documents and also to in the participation of the europeans there are against girls and their cradle saw and saying here if you're going to questions on writing trash about. excuse me please i was pettish calling was. just thinking he's going to. bring these families of.

these elite athletes. and russia. as far as i understand it is russia is going to insist on implementing. the agreements the intended i should live for inclusion this is for is no preconditions is that's right. if you. don't well you know that was your question of course there's this whole situation is all six resolutions going to insist on the previous interim until this was no preconditions. what is best about. differences. grow the fundamental approaches their international community. is. usually. when it was relevant to any conflict in this part of the world in africa going there is a list. why don't the six. everyone and the wrong with. saying

that it is as if there's a continues to between the palestinians and the israeli until you know both how long and based i'm going to call it off exceptions just as the negotiators will are just out of the press conference for a moment past russia's foreign minister sergey lavrov updating got the press on the situation in the east of ukraine the top line coming out of that is that russia are intending to second send a second humanitarian aid convoy to eastern ukraine within the next couple of days they say the babe informed by the ukrainian authorities on the international red cross i think for more transparency and to avoid confusion followed by russia's initial excuse. on a tear in a convoy that reached new gantz of course the early part of the weekend detention then turns to. and he hopes that the meeting between putin and polish and co will open political dialogue between russia and ukraine and we will have more on this with our correspondent and with a guest coming in around thirty minutes time but

a reminder of our breaking news this hour on the breaking news this hour french president francois hollande has accepted the government's resignation after the prime minister dissolved the cabinets manuel violence has been asked to form a new cabinet on tuesday in line with the course set for the country by the president it comes amid calls from the french ministers for changes to the country's economic policies the economy minister says said on sunday it's time to resist what he said was germany's obsession with austerity the prime minister's ratings have been extremely low recently with personal and remain at the most unpopular president in fifty years that's according to the latest poll of more both of those stories coming up in around thirty minutes time here on r.t. international but ahead a report on a rare medical condition that makes people age prematurely stay with us.

if you look at my generation of americans and even more so at the millennial there are a lot of people with all sorts of piercings and tattoos everyone wants to express themselves by getting the exact same cliched tattoos and piercings as everyone else but can we discriminate against these people because of their in doubt appearance normally people are against discrimination because it punishes people for the way they were born their raise search gender but no one was born with big metal loops stretching out their ear lobes so essentially yes you can't judge someone by their tattoos and piercings because they got these done consciously as an adult i mean we all know that you need to dress up on a first date or job interview to make a good impression and well having the words thug life written up your forearm are not very convincing to me that you are going to make a valuable employee or girlfriend one of the worst things that we tell children is that you should never judge

a book by its cover the problem is that no one has the time to open up all these books and investigate so obviously ninety percent of the time we're going to be judging each other by the cover of our book and if that cover is full of dead fetus tattoos like one guy i know that you should expect a lot of bigoted reactions over the course of your life but that's just my opinion . my name is time. i have a ph d. in math.
