would have the means to slow that down or even stop it but that the problem with this is important is for russia it would also hurt american companies. so that's why the americans are reluctant to take advantage of that and probably will stick to that framework they have in place now with the sanctions for example with these events or freezing assets by russian officials. maybe just acceptable but two different people and expertly we have the g seven meeting next week to discuss the crisis when people say come on about well two things basically whether to scrap the g eight meeting the g eight summit in sochi in june and the second question will be whether to take on russia out of the g eight entirely an apparently russians and european americans and europeans are on the same page there get my next often things are joining us from washington. but tensions in ukraine and also raise concerns about human rights. german test on one ankle met with leading human rights activists on tuesday

mood because of the ukraine crisis on the other hand the kind of sanctions that we've been looking forward to try to force russia to force the fight to stop slaughtering civilians in syria. finally the european union the united states composing these kinds of targeted sanctions but for different reasons ukraine but that maybe i'll open the door to a tougher approach from russia make clear that russia has not been a so called partner in peace even in syria or rather an underwriter of mass murder and should be treated. i was kenneth ross executive director of human rights watch to stay with us because coming up the mystery of malaysian airlines flight three seventy from kuala lumpur. ten days after the boeing jumbo jet carrying two hundred thirty nine people disappeared from radar screens. relatives of the passengers are demanding information across the entrance and on toppling the story of how our universe began. scientists say they found what they called the cosmic missing link. all
