united states will exchange for information on all their strategic. and in two months they will resume regular check ups of the nuke stocks and perhaps most importantly their reduction the pact was backed by both presidents but it still took nearly two years of hard talks and internal dispute until the treaty was ratified by both country's parliament and even then only after the two sides had made so-called special statements or recommendations but they were non-binding and will not affect the actual implementation of the deal the original text remains untouched to remember they were ok from the way of threats from hopes on both sides but luckily this is all and now we see that it was well the start treaty that started the reset process also on the table at the munich security forum was another initiative backed by moscow the building of a unified anti missile defense system which includes russia the united states and the european union all sharing responsibility for the safety of the others

according to you i would offer maintaining a balance is essential for everyone security and he stressed this is a unique chance to work together. an agreement to discuss the possibility of a joint anti missile shield doesn't automatically mean russia is ready to join the program which is being drafted without its participation was the idea of take it or leave it doesn't work here if we don't work together she will have to compensate like it or not an emerging imbalance. getting rid of old cliches and rescind dividing one that's the message voiced by most here in germany a country which learned from bitter experience what you did is all about. what was there which there were a lot remains to be done to irreversibly overcome the accumulated historical cliches phobias and suspicions of all our countries need to follow the principle of the indivisibility. if security we're already to follow serious collective work in

the key area of year land global policy the time has come to take a choice between common strategic interests in the media political expediency but clearly not everyone is able to get rid of old stereotypes we are proceeding with it because of the threat we face from iran not from the soviet union and. when you look from the former soviet this meeting in munich is fast becoming a major stage for people to look forward to among other issues dominating the talks were the current unrest in egypt the peace process in the middle east iran's nuclear program north korea frozen conflicts and for the first time in forty seven years cybercrime the security there was that's the nickname this conference has been given by some sense it's a great opportunity for world leaders and top level politicians to share their

views on key contemporary issues and many say every year this forum reveals the true direction of global politics for the near future and this time in the case of russia and the united states for the next decade you've got this kind of r.t. munich. dr adrian pabst from the university of kent in britain says the treaty marks a new era in russia u.s. relations. the reset has often been dismissed as just nice rhetoric with little action but now we have a concrete outcome of the reset in u.s. russian relations and i think both sides will want to build on this indeed missile defense has been one of the most divisive issues extremely well as we saw in november at the nato summit in lisbon present is prepared to discuss this and also prepared to consider russian participation in a missile defense shield that is not aimed at russia but in fact is aimed at rogue states and so it would really help to diffuse tensions of the last few years and

move forward in a more positive spirit both sides can pull out that's also been the case in the past with previous treaties so i don't think that is any different. real threats always exist and both sides have to very careful as to where they want to put out because that would really set back relations by many years. revolution or riot. why do you think the media sometimes calls and sometimes calls it a revolution. i think it probably depends. would it surprise you. we gauge public opinion on the international media his handling of the political crisis in egypt. some americans say political correctness has gone too far as a possible literature finds itself the target of censorship. but first russia's

most wanted man terrorist doku umarov has claimed he was behind january's bombing of domodedovo airport that took the lives of thirty six people and injured more than one hundred eighty he made the claims in a video message on an extremist web site we were also warned of more terror acts to follow authorities believe he was also involved in the march two thousand and ten moscow metro bombings that killed thirty people as well as the november two thousand and nine bombing of a train heading from moscow to st petersburg. thousands of anti-government protesters in egypt are spending another night in cairo's tahrir square demanding president hosni mubarak step down the deadline set by the demonstrators for his resignation came and went with no word from the president according to state media the leadership of the ruling party has resigned in response to be an arrest among those who quit was president mubarak's son as the political crisis enters its

thirteenth day both the protesters and the president do standing firm as our teams paula sneer reports from the egyptian capital. it is raining intermittently people are still frightened and people have been hiding for warmth around ten fires and intense respect maybe it's just the enthusiasm and the real belief in what they're doing that is essentially keeping them warm it was a cheer in the crowd earlier saturday when the announcement came through that state television was reporting that the president mubarak and the rest of the top leadership of the national democratic party had resigned we are though hearing conflict in reports about whether or not that happened but assuming it did the response in the square was that this was a step in the right direction but not enough protesters still insisting that mubarak needs to stick to a state needs to step down from the presidency at the same time i've been speaking to an illness and they can use an expression that when a person has cancer you don't treat that cancer by giving them one full one full of aspirin now earlier saturday the head of the army's central command visited this

way he walked from the one side to the other and he urged protesters to go home i can tell you that the mood in the square was almost as if the army is choking people in we did try to make our way there but we were stopped by the army the tape that we'd been filming was actually confiscated and we were warned that if we do not turn back we would be arrested on the spot now the focus here is for sunday sunday has been dubbed the day of martyred and again a court has gone out for one million protesters to make their way to tough the square earlier on saturday president mubarak met with the top officials of. government it was almost as if they were trying to put on a face that it was business as usual and that was the message that was given by the country's prime minister he met with opposition parties he did say that the opposition parties were very divided but he was confident that they could reach some kind of common ground and some kind of solution he also said that stability was returning to that country and of course once that message to go out to the international community because of the economic crisis that essentially this

country is facing at the moment well saturday's demonstration was dubbed the day of solidarity and that was really to mock and to say thank you to the demonstrations that have been held around the world in solidarity with what is going on here in egypt itself in new york hundreds of people took to the streets they have egypt and american citizenship we saw the same kind of scenes being played out in europe across least in. turkey in iran and as far afield as south africa at the same time the mid east caught it did meet on the sidelines of the unix security conference and there the u.s. secretary of state hillary clinton say it and to quote a perfect storm is brewing in the arab world and of course that is because people are concerned that what has happened here in egypt will have and is already having a ripple effect in the rest of the region e.u. leaders did condemn the violence and again we're hearing the same call from the international community to acknowledge actions to make

a decision for themselves but the same call coming from egyptians asking the international community to stay out and stop meddling in their own internal domestic issues. or use the international media coverage of the unrest in egypt painting a fair picture of what's going on there to find out more harford also known as the resident hit the streets of new york to ask people what their. thousands upon thousands of protesters have taken to the streets in cairo is this a welcome revolution or an out now try it this week let's talk about that why do you think the media sometimes calls an event a riot and sometimes calls it a revolution but i think it probably depends on the news commentator he's imposing his opinion on the scene do you think that the news always does that yeah but i think everybody goes i mean there are there are no objective people in the world we all come with our mind probably already made up do you think that there media's

coverage of what's going on in egypt just fair. at first. i don't i don't know. fair i mean we haven't covered egypt i mean they've had this guy in power for how many years so where were they all those years that he was supposed to be not a good leader you know we haven't heard anything about that until now do you think it's important what happens in egypt for us. it's important for the people i think that. a democratic system is more important than. for united states so would it surprise you to know that our country has backed the current first a member our i know but not really i mean it's all right because that's what it always comes down to you know mom if they're getting footage and it looks like people are in this upheaval and it looks like a riot and that's what people want to hear they'll call it that on the other hand

if they think they'll sell more and call it a revolution i think they'll call it that so do you think they care about the outcome of what happens in egypt or are they trying to push their own agenda well i think that the individuals care but as a corporation and the media i think they care about selling the news however they want and whoever the stakeholders are whatever they want to hear whether or not you think the protests in egypt are a good thing we can only hope that the situation gets resolved with as little violence as possible. and now mind your language as a tool against inequality and discrimination political correctness has become part of our everyday lives but for some in the u.s. these self-imposed restrictions are being taken a step too far as our teams merino porton i reports. america is a country that pioneers freedom of expression but is the rising tide of political correctness reigning in the right to say what you think people do hold hold to to

to actually speak their mind it's almost as though you have a sort of a code to follow sometimes you want to call a spade a spade and sometimes you want to call it trouble according to recent poll the majority of citizens think the u.s. is overdosing on p.c. turning the land of the free into a nation of hyper sensitive sissies. were even cornered. ships can cause mass controversy in this add a priest substitute to do read zero for the eucharist the body of christ where the commercial was created for a possible super bowl broadcast but after an uproar among catholics frito lay apologized and pulled the plug on the satirical spot during a commercial being pulled is a classic example of americans freaking out about something insulting to do with religion i understand why the catholic league might flip out that's their job however be able to laugh at yourself folks. the price of humor can end up costing

this is buying well while you're associated with an aggressive stance towards islam your recent a variety is derived from your treatment by your own legal system do you feel betrayed by the system that you've been defending. the main proper m is that all. which i was convicted for we say is that if you. speak something which. mark or score on. people because of their ethnicity their race their real each or religious belief and. and there. and secure mad rush. then you can be punished and

someone merely needs to feel offended in order for a crime to have been made why insert such a subjective clause into such an important piece of legislation a lot of people. first of all of them are flimsy. but also many. left wing people in and denmark see it as an art to feel offended it's. it's especially of culture to feel of ended and when they feel offended they argue that. that you should. stop the freedom of. speech or restrict it the court the shish the dorseys them shouldn't care
