agreed to the structure of a deal what does that mean? >> reporter: well basically delegations from the internationally recognized government of tobruk and the -- the tripoli-based gnc which is recognized as legitimate by though country's constitutional court came out of a meeting with the united nations special representative and they basically said that they have come up to some sort of agreement about how to move forward. this agreement tackles two main issues. forming a national unity government and the security arrangement, which is basically implementing the ceasefire, disbanding militias and setting up an army that could look after security in the country. now that's quite significant progress, but we still have to talk about details tomorrow. then they will travel to libya late tomorrow to see how -- to

talk to their respective governments about those ideas that have been floated here in the moroccan capitol rabat. and they are expecting to come back to rabat next week for a settlement of the final agreement. >> you say a ceremony of the final agreement. i know it's very complex, but do you think we can sew the seeds of optimism now? >> reporter: this is a country that has been grappling with a civil war. at the same time there has always been there this trust deficit between the two bitterly divided governments one in the west and the other in the east. bringing them together to talk about how to move forward on its own has been a challenge. -- peace talks started in january? geneva geneva, but the international community is putting all of its

weight behind a settlement. because their concern is if the fighting continues they will slip towards more anarchy. groups like islamic state of iraq and the levant are taking advantage and libya neighbors europe, and this is the biggest concern for the international community. this is why they came to the realization that it is in the interest of the international community and the libyans to have the two governments make concessions, have a deal and move forward. >> hashem thank you. ♪ now the u.n. has approved the u.s. drafted resolution which condemns the use of chlorine as a weapon in syria. 14 countries voted in favor of the resolution. it does not, however, place any blame on any particular

government or group for the use in syria. but it paves the way for sanctions to be imposed if its use isn't stopped. our diplomatic editor james bayes has been following the developments at the united states. hi, james. just how awkward was the atmosphere in the room? >> reporter: it was very strange, because you had the undersecurity council agreeing on something and passing a resolution. 14 countries in favor, only one venezuela abstained saying they felt this created a dangerous path to war, but moments after they agreed and passed the resolution, then there was a pretty furious rauch. because the resolution said it is going to add chlorine to the list of chemical weapons, and promises to take action in the future if there are further attacks. but what it doesn't do is say which side was to blame, and that's where the rauch started.

because you had western nations say we know this is the assad regime that is responsible, because the international body investigating this said that many of the witnesses it spoke to heard helicopters, and those are only possessed by the assad regime. the russian ambassador completely denied that and said they were subjective witnesses they had spoken to and perhaps the helicopters had been flying at the same time that the chlorine bombs went off, but they weren't responsible for the chlorine bombs. and it turned into a stormy rauch with the american ambassador asking for the right to rely and the russian ambassador each time replying to her. >> james thank you. russia and ukraine have agreed to double the number of osce observers monitoring the

ceasefire in eastern ukraine. the truce is said to be largely holding despite continued fights near donetsk and other flash points. but a car bomb in kharkiv left two people injured. >> reporter: the car exploded as it passed through a suburb. it belonged to the heard of a pro-ukrainian militia. he was injured so too were his wife and bother. the local police say they think the explosion was caused by a magnetic mine. just the latest act of what they are calling terrorism. they have accused russian-backed groups of trying to open up a new front. on the 22nd of february a bomb exploded during a pro-ukrainian rally in the same city. four people were killed including a police officer. but this police video shows a

bus in new delhi and what happened here on thursday. however, it is fair to say that the incidents have unfolded at a very interesting time at a time when there's a resurgent debate over rape in india, and a call for governments to do more and find permanent solutions to these crimes and cases that just don't seem to be going away. france's former intier i don't know minister under nicklas car -- sarkozy has been taken into custody. jacky rowland has more from paris. >> reporter: well the questioning that has been going on since the early hours of friday morning, surrounds a sum of approximately $700,000 which appeared in claude gueant's bank account back in march 2008. now the police want to know what

was this money? where did it come from. it was a payment from overseas. the explanation provided by claude gueant is that this was payment for two paintings we sold. but there are some questions and doubts over this version of the story, partly because the paintings themselves which are from little known artist from the 17th century are believed to be worth a faction of what they were allegedly sold for, and also if you are shipping valuable paintings overseas you have to be an export license from the minister of culture. and that's why police are diging a bit further to see if this could have actually been money that came from the regime of colonel gadhafi to finance the
