Screw the OAS and Chavez. Zelaya should have been punished for what he did, and instead he gets backed up by all those hypocrites. Honduran constitution clearly states that there will be no reelection, and that specific article will not be changed. Zelaya wanted to be reelected, he even had statues of himself!! If that is not proof of his real intentions i don't know what is. And the only interest Chavez ever had in Honduras is petrolium found in Honduras.

“Control” is the key word for this former KGB officer, Putin. Control of the state, of economic and political forces, and the media, incluiding RT. Independent journalists and human rights activists are in danger. Reporters Without Borders lists Russia 140th in its 178 country ranking of press freedom, behind Zimbawe 123 and Ethiopia 139th.
It would totally make sense for venezuela to support FARC. A colombia with a free hand and with US military and financial backing would be a big threat to Hugo Chavez. And this might be deals chavez is making to satisfy colombia in case they have info they can leak that could make Chavez seem lile a terrorist supporter. We all all know who the main terrorists are in latin america.. The US. But venezuela doesnt have the power to push international propaganda like the US does so it has to keep ce
RT is is truthful when it comes to the west, but when it comes to Russia and its allies it whitewashes everything and unfairly demonizes enemies to Russias agenda, like chechnya for example.
@slavixtube "Gaddafi tough,skilled,unique'(supporting him),"Russian supersubs in Swiss waters"(ignore othernations),'Russia to have most advanced nuclear reactor ever developed','Iran has nothing to prove'-Nuke envoy in RT live exclusive,'Gaddafi not as weak as West wants to present it',Yury Budanov,a disgraced Russian colonel sentenced for kidnapping andkilling a Chechen teenager,has been killed in central Moscow.Some Russiannationalistsbelievehim tobe a herounjustly jailed topacify Chechen
whitewashing - 'to gloss over or cover up vices, crimes or scandals or to exonerate by means of a perfunctory investigation or through biased presentation of data'
"Gaddafi tough,skilled,unique' -quote from a chess champion who visited Gaddafi.
"Russian supersubs in Swiss waters" - no ignoring any other nation, just showing you Russia's technology.
'Russia to have most advanced nuclear reactor ever developed' -quote from a person interviewed.
@slavixtube Russia and Libya were not close allies but they did business, and libya was somewhat hostile to the U.S. which is good for Russia. Even if it is a quote, you'll see that most of their quotes favor the russian govt's agenda, they wont lie, but they bring guests and cover stories that when shown will promote the russian agenda.
@slavixtube granted they sometimes admit some level of corruption and a fragile economy,but often they only talk about those incidents which were far in the past.Also if you watch their videos,especially crosstalk,you will see the host subduing anyone who criticizes or makes the russian government or nation look bad, by arguing against it. They aren't fair in all cases.I have nothing against the russian people, but ALL governments are power structures who will do all to expand.
I agree. RT is not perfect and should do a better job covering Russian politics. RT is however one of the best if not the best alternative media in the world.
As for disagreeing with someone who makes accusations against Russia those accusations have to be valid otherwise it is a good thing to object.
@zubairalihussain But I don't watch RT to get news about Russia. I don't live in Russia. I watch it to get news about America. It's damn good when it comes to America.
@Wishingstarification I understand, you are correct. But RT is advertised as international news, and they do report on issues about russia,which is a major sub-superpower nation. If you only watch it for news about the U.S. or the rest of the world, it is fairly unbiased.but some issues like georgie,chechnya,human rights abuses and other problems in russia are downplayed. While their allies are shown in a light to make people think they are moral and powerful nations.Watch RT with no illusions.
@Wishingstarification In the last post i seemed to imply that i support Georgia in the Georgian-Russian conflict. That is not the case. Just letting you know.
Chechen terrorists are run by NATO intelligence just like terrorists in libya now and terorrists in AFganistan.. Russians had every right to go into Chechnya and crush the terrorists who were controlled by NATO intelligence to splinter Russia..
@xMaXiMuSx i suppose you watch RT and believe everything they say?just like those who watch fox or msnbc, almost every network has its bias,some more clear than others.the Chechen people desire independence from the russian federation just like the other former soviet republics.Yes there are terrorists,but russia went overkill and terrorized the chechen people and ruled them like a policestate after.RT willalways depict all independence fighters as terrorists cuz it is in their interest to do so
@xMaXiMuSx it kinda reminds me what the israelis would say about the "Gazan Hamas terrorists" when they massacred and punished the gazan people for voting the wrong party in, and then put a blockade and siege on them, starving them to see how badly they are willing to suffer to really have the rights they deserve.
Hamas is a legit organization.. I have much respect for them.. The chechen terrorists are exactly that terorrists.. A terrorist mercenary army run by US and Biritsh intelligence..
@xMaXiMuSx I disagree with you that they are all terrorists.Those who harm civilians are terrorists.But many if not most chechens desire more autonomy from Russia, and currently are brutalized and ruled with an iron fist by the russian government and governor of the Chechen republic or whatever the equivalent is in Russia.The almost all the ones left are the terrorists because it is hard to fight fair when you are afraid of your powerful overlord.Russia punished the Chechens for wanting freedom.
@26Keano Looks like somebody needs to get laid. If you don't want me to respond, then don't post. This is a PUBLIC forum, so deal with it...or don't post. LOL @ you getting your dirty panties in a bunch.
Caracas is one of the most dangerous places on earth. Hugo has financed FARC operations in past years.
"documentation lists funds and weapons from Chavez's Venezuela going to FARC rebels in Colombia. Despite threats by Chavez against Colombia a few weeks prior, it is in fact Chavez who is supplying arms against Colombia via the FARC according to Spiegel International."
@26Keano RT is a great alternative to the propaganda put out by the mainstream media. Reporting the truth is such a rare occurrence in the mainstream media that people like you deem it 'anti-American."
Thanks for this TRNN, is a good interview but it is important to analyze the relations of southamerican leaders in the context of UNASUR and the unification plans for southamerica, that is i think the main factor why Chavez is bending a bit more than the usual to have good relations with Colombia
Paul Keep up the good work! The Real News Network will always have a place in my subbox next to Aljazeerah English and RT! Your interviews are by far some of the best!
Ok. RussiaToday is a just anti-American propaganda. They have an enormous obesession with the US.
More than 3/4 of their reports is about what US is doing. They pass most of their time interviewing conspiracy theorists, like W.Tarpley, whose prediction never happens. Antisemitism was fully replaced by anti-Americanism in Russian society, and now a lot of Russians blame America for all problems in the world.
None-sense. RT is anti-American imperialism, but not anti-American people. But, so is most of the planet's population. 'conspiracy theory' is a phrase used in US to dismiss anything outside of the narrow band of excepted opinion. A type of censorship of alternative opinions. Tarpley is a very smart and highly educated person. US imperialism is the biggest problem of the world whether you choose to ignore that fact or not.
Really! How many times the king of conspiracies, mr. Alex Jones been in interviewed?
Paul jay once was interviewed by them (Paul Jay on RT - US knew Afghan bonanza in '07), every time he said "russia", he was interrupted. No, no, no...you're not allowed to criticise Russia, only the US.
The fact is that Russia is a wounded bear, who feels ignored and misses the good old days of Soviet Union.
I am not a big fan of Jones, but he does say many things I personally agree with. Even if you disagree with him that does not make you view any more worthy and Alex does have a lot of followers.
As for Paul and his 'every time he said Russia' video, you may want to recall that nothing Paul said was in any way damaging to Russia's interest and was only interrupted to stay on current events. When Paul objected to being interrupted he was allowed to say whatever he wanted to say.
RT has had a number reports that are quite critical of various parts of Russian society and if you pay attention you will see them. The fact is you are racist against Russia (calling Russia a bear) and you are projecting your own negative views on Russia.
Why wont they talk about the persecution that independent jornalists suffer in Russia, the lack of Gov. transparency, corruption. Choice is an illusion in the country's presidential polls. "10 Candidates in a One-Horse Race"
There is not persecution of independent journalists. This is a lie constantly repeated in western press.
RT should definitely do a better job covering Russian politics, but they are not covering anything up.
As for your mafia claim, that is bull shit. You don't know anything about Russian government. Only repeating what you read in western press. How is choice an illusion when there are many candidates running? If that is the case you can say all elections illusion of choice.
This is a great piece of Journalism, found it by accident but subscribe me up baby!
