it's going to be. russia can't set conditions for settling ukraine's crisis but we'll do everything to facilitate pace that was the statement from president putin as he sat down with the ukrainian counterpart petro poroshenko for the very first time. british authorities of the left shocked by the growing number of people getting radicalized into jihad they now want to take away passports of those going to war zones while encouraging citizens to spy on potential terrorists. as the popularity of civilian drones grows in the u.s. these small aircraft buzzing through the skies are turning into a serious threat for air traffic.

thanks for joining us this hour my name is the harvey and you're watching r.t. international. russia will do its best to help set up a peace process in ukraine those words coming from vladimir putin you can see there came shortly before the first sit down meeting of the russian and ukrainian presidents at an international summit in minsk. has more. clinton is the first ever hinted between the current president of russia in ukraine and gesture onlookers hoped it would herald some kind of breakthrough but didn't put in said the talks went well but insisted the most pressing issue finding a solution to the conflict in ukraine was something needs to settle but if you go in there should we didn't talk in detail about it and frankly speaking russia can

propose any conditions for a cease fire or speak about possible agreements between kiev and donetsk or lugansk this is ukraine's affairs we can only try to help to create an atmosphere of trust during these negotiations that are in my view very necessary. was something that is becoming a problem is the humanitarian catastrophe in ukraine cities of the guns hundreds of thousands of refugees are fleeing for safety many coming over the border where there was real movement was in discussions over the gas dispute between the two countries put in promise negotiations will start in the nearest future because it's a problem which affects the e.u. just as much as it does. the russian president was all smiles ahead of the one on one with pershing go the ukrainian leaders face betrayed the fact he was probably a little less relaxed ahead of talks with a lot riding on them. it was a day of tough negotiations but the logic of the peace plan was supported by heads

of state but ultimately though no real breakthrough came in attempts to end the bloody struggle in ukraine but after the events of recent months just the fact the leaders are talking is some kind of progress it is a ghost r.t. minsk. civilian areas remain in the sights of ukraine's army in the country's east with residential parts of done yet being hit on a daily basis here says it's only targeting rebel fighters the outskirts of the regional hub down yet scoured come under violent shelling once again paula slip she traveled there and she joins us live on the line now paula thanks for making it over there you've been are really our eyes and ears on the ground what can you tell us you witnessed there. well we spent part of the day in the cullen in ski region of dennett's now this is not far from the city center and we arrived just moments

after some six to seven rockets hit the area what we saw was wide scale panic there was the main arts building that was up in flames the firemen there were backing up the flames and as we were there part of the ceiling will fall in residential homes had been completely destroyed there was streets where the whole front facade of buildings had been blown away and everywhere you looked was shattered glass they were also at least two cars i saw that had also received hits one directly hit and there were three bodies that had been burnt inside the car many people did not want to talk to us but you certainly could since the fear and the panic as this is this fighting moves closer and closer to the city center we also visited step through a base cheval now that's not far from donetsk either and there there is a ukrainian military vehicle that has been abandoned the streets to deadly quiet we we did bump into a group of anti-government fighters who before they urged us to leave the town

saying that it was very dangerous told us that they had managed to push the ukrainian army back but that they were doing a sweep of the town because they had information that they were ukrainian soldiers that were hiding in basements so the the situation here on the ground as you can imagine increasingly tense. what we're hearing here at our end is that some fierce fighting is got under way around illa voice can you confirm that. it's certainly reported we are receiving we are hearing that they have been fierce battles in ill advised between anti-government forces as well as the ukrainian army what we are hearing is that the anti-government forces are on the offensive they are managing to push the army back that is an army that is receiving assistance from paramilitary groups and one of these paramilitary leaders has actually urged for help he has said that he has been betrayed by the generals and left to die and he's calling for a day of action at the headquarters of ukraine's general staff in kids now

throughout the day there have been people gathering at their building they are calling for the here defense minister to resign they're also calling for hope to be given it to these forces saying that if this does not happen then they will block one of the capital city's main streets and we are also though receiving reports of did and injured on both sides and this is an important area because it is the focal point right now of where the fighting is happening between the two sides ok thank you to our correspondent paula slater reporting from don yes. germany has become the latest country to lend its weight to the campaign to find russian journalist andres stern and he's been missing in ukraine since the fifth of august this is what wednesday's edition of the left looks like the global campaign for the release of the veteran war zone photographer kicks off almost immediately following his disappearance here however has been reluctant to participate saying it has no

knowledge of stand ins faked. no turkey's pointing fingers at moscow when it comes to the crisis in ukraine itself the general is into doubts russia still a partner of the alliance and revealed some of what his organization is planning to do about it more details on the way. but first the threats posed by would be jihadists traveling to and from the middle east is making u.k. authorities raise the alarm police there are now encouraging the public to inform on anybody they think could potentially be on the path to radicalism the metropolitan police's counterterrorism chief has appealed for help to identify aspiring terrorists and that could mean anybody traveling abroad or coming back to britain the public is also being asked to keep an eye on individuals showing signs of being converted to radical islam the number of terror related arrests is already

soaring with sixty nine people held in just the first half of this year the security services say up to one thousand british residents have already joined the jihadi fight in iraq and syria and up to two hundred fifty hardliners are believed to have returned to the u.k. posing a serious headache for security police homegrown militants say that taking part in the holy war is their sacred duty but i thought he was wonder just how much the official policy of multiculturalism is to blame as marina cost of investigates multiculturalism was once celebrated as the way forward but after thirty years of cultivating it and britain it's now being blamed for fostering extremist ideology and directly contributed to homegrown islamic terror for too long the doctrine of multiculturalism has led to immigrants establishing completely separate communities in our cities. these has led to honor killings female genital circumcision and the

establishment of sharia law in inner city pockets throughout the u.k. islamic radicals should be challenged with the values of liberal democracy. issue to do with multiculturalism in britain which i think has led to guess why is ation a sort of bottom up apartheid that is a. i think unfortunately it is there is going to be an extent to it too little too late it's british police are now preparing for raids across the country in their bid to find out exactly who is just hard to the brits or suspects they had an american journalist james foley but many fear there's more than one jihadi john around and want the government to take more drastic measures therefore automatic suspicion that if you have travelled to the isis region in this period of time that you are in some way and in the conflict there i think that it's only right that that suspicion exists and i think all of those individuals those have travelled to

the region need to be investigated by the intelligence services and quite possibly by the police if they return to the home secretary currently has the power to strip citizenship from two or nationals who are fighting abroad this also applies to immigrants who have become naturalized citizens but home office lawyers argue that a country can't make its citizens stateless and the other side of the story is muslim communities living here in the u.k. who say the threat of violence has increased and clearly nationalism and in the phobia they say be made into scapegoats has trains their everyday lives dramatically so i'm quite sickened by the political right to constantly have a go at multiculturalism as of multiculturalism is the major problem we are getting a gradual sense of of a drip drip of cases which comes in from the trojan horse and we had cases that came in from the isis affair they feel that there's

a sense of collective guilt that has been placed on them not just wind of it was that they know but also through the national papers and by politicians who of calling are almost. should onset for this this so-called hate campaign is seen mostly on the internet with ennis and muslims being the frequent target of internet trolls even a senior muslim member of a local branch of the anti immigration ukip party has found himself the target of online abuse there's a sense of disaffection there's a sense of isolationism and i guess there's also a sense that you know some of the individuals feeling that this is also prejudicial in its own right by assuming all of the muslim community has to answer to something they have absolutely no control of the war of extremism is now raging just as much as that of nationalism the problem for the government is finding a fine line so it doesn't end up falling into either camp during the course of our

reports or from london for us. to deal with the rise of this sentiment in the u.k. as home secretary theresa may as outlined a series of new measures so people who travel to syria or iraq could now be investigated those who knows who could be stripped of their citizenship as well as naturalized britons fighting abroad those returning from the war zones could be prosecuted the plans have already set a trend with norway now also considering revoking citizenship of people found taking part in terror activities or wars abroad but we spoke to wall member of the muslim women's network in the u.k. he says that such strategy is not well thought out. the strategies that the government and the police forces of launching needs to be holistic not just a single prong which says ok we're going to prevent people or we're going to take away passports or whatever we need to provide support we need to look at why young people feel they have to go with many mostly me and people i think that there is

a lack of identity that they decide and crisis that they are facing which is leading them to look for something that they can relate to and belong to and they want a purpose and that purpose is not being fulfilled in their own country hence they're looking somewhere else and they are they are vulnerable they're vulnerable to these people and the people who are recruiting are obviously aware of that fact and they are mounting quite targeted and sustained campaigns to recruit these sort of people that they would like to join. so it's come for you this hour ever wanted to scale those never ending money problems later in the program we'll meet a woman who lived a whole year without cash in the middle of the consumption frenzy.

differently here in syria and now many of the members of congress the both parties have gone to syria in recent months as a. former. president which is diddy's time for him to go. to go. to syria. so obviously. he's in full scope becoming independent schools a nation that nation should be self-governing govern the feels better than allowing someone else to do it full. on merit in the financial world. talked to goldman's cannot stop because the dems only take no demand to trade is not going to get any better in life. and on

fox. welcome back they toes moving counter moves to challenge what the head of the alliance called russia's reluctance to consider as a partner in an interview to the european press under an allied nato his latest plans for eastern europe and that includes ensuring permanent international armed deployments on russia's doorstep and he's already has a so-called response force but believes it now needs to be spearheaded he also spoke of closer ties with ukraine the alliance is yet to decide on the amount of aid it will send over to kiev which is currently involved in a bloody crackdown on opposition forces on its own territory james core but the editor of the corporate report an independent japan based news outlet thinks that nato is routinely pushing towards domination in the area i think we have to read

this as a commitment towards the establishment of a minute military bases specifically because that has been on the table now for a number of years and has been actively denied so i think the fact that they are not coming out and saying this and they are not specifying where these bases will be situated is just part of the diplomatic dance that's taking place right now but what we have to understand that there is a permanent military deployment that is being considered right now that is that is absolutely a mark of brinksmanship this is just another part of that bigger picture that shows the needle is not committed to peace and stability in the region they are looking to be the dominant military power a civilian drones are becoming more and more popular in the u.s. it's causing growing concern for pilots of conventional planes. here is an online map of commercial flights over the u.s. that we've taken in the last few hours it came from flight radar twenty four dot com but just look how busy the sky over america is or no surprise then that

as the number of drones rises so does the number of close calls. for example in march a u.s. airways pilot reported a near miss with a tiny drone over tallahassee airport in florida next on new york registered a black drone is zipping towards a large aircraft a seven hundred meters above lower manhattan and planes near los angeles international said that they will saw an unidentified aircraft the size of a rubbish bin out of their window and if you can as more. commercial drones are about to flood the u.s. air space amazon is seeking permission from regulators to test its delivery drones the very soon drones may be delivering your online orders earlier this summer the federal aviation administration gave all giant b.p. the first permission to use a commercial drone to fly aerial surveys over the operation in alaska congress has

another year to decide on rules and regulations for commercial drones but they're already here flying legally and mostly illegally often to the horror of airline pilots the number of dangerously close encounters with unmanned aircraft is rising rapidly as more drones big and small take to the air pilots like greg cromer are raising the alarm i cannot see them they're too small or too fast and they're too erratic another airplane in the sky i know is going this way bedroom can go this way down fast without any warning they can change directions so there's no amount of preparation there's no amount of vigilance that's going to completely make me or any other pilot say america's aviation watchdog says pilots have reported fifteen close calls with small drones near airports in the past two years and nasa database of confidential complaints filed by pilots and air traffic controllers has recorded

fifty other reports of close calls involving drones over the past decade in many cases it is not possible to track down the on registered aircraft and who's flying them but when in july a small drone came dangerously close to a police helicopter in new york two of its operators were arrested not only are the drones able to fly off radar they also crash in the last five years two hundred thirty six all safe incidents have been reported and that's only among registered drawl. what happens if one of these things falls and hits a kid on the. if it's a politician's kid we will have to worry about drones anymore. there are many what ifs in this rapid expansion in the use of drugs many concerns ranging from safety to privacy what if stalkers get their hands on drones anyway while business is online for some and are exploring all the wonderful ways they could use the

a world. now what would you do if the world entire economic system collapsed would you survive without money relying only on your bartering skills well arty's pita of a better woman who tried to live without the so-called root of all evil for an entire year. in a modern world where advertisers are constantly out to convince consumers that they need new products it can be tempting to give up and live a much simpler life one german woman in the city of light seek did just that i miss hope with running to greater tarbush to for twelve months trying to simulate a world without making her own clothes bartering with people. what we could eat it and growing her own food i get my knife not easy is the earth is just not ready for that the soil so i called my mother she took her car and broad huge amount of soil from my home country this is where my mother put soil and this is

i found something for you the idea behind great is experiment wasn't to convince people to give up on consumerism entirely but to show that with a little thought and some hard effort we can become more self-reliant. and that one person's trash can be another's treasure be to all of our arty leipzig germany. that woman may have chosen to abandon modern life in one german city but in another a somewhat harriet based is chosen to embrace it. check out this cell which is clearly how the ideas above it station chooses to swap she usual forest hangouts for an office job and i what happened to the surprise guest by heading to off his website. and also that for you encounter more than two hundred thousand spectators showed up for what's been dubbed the pirate technical lympics this is part of a performance called golden watch more of it and find out who topped the podium

that it's all right. so it is up next there and i will look into the decline of atlantic city coming up in the next episode of boom bust. ukraine is running out of many things money time and patience there's a growing recognition in europe that the ukrainian civil war must end through negotiations those petitions have the political will and does washington really want peace. we think of why we think there are no. rules and beaches. coconut gently swaying in the ocean breeze. and frank why he has a deep dark little secret a secret the u.s.
