security forces this against a background of severe ethnic clashes which have spiraled since colonel qaddafi was ousted most recently at least twelve more killed dozens injured after the fighting parties used heavy weaponry including anti aircraft guns political analyst and consultant peter thinks that libya will only descend deeper into chaos libya is following the same trend as all the other countries where there was of course regime we have the same scenario in iraq we have the same situation in afghanistan we've got the situation in libya which was again of course regime and as you would expect it will be breakaway groups because at the end of the day although gadhafi was a fraudster in many ways brought that country from the doldrums into great prosperity and the wrong government got in and so the military is still trying to pull that the strain and of course that's failing very fast and i think we will see a natural rebellion perfect like it's ongoing in iraq like is ongoing in syria and egypt. all right time for the r.t. was update now we will start with northern china where at least
