russia and the united states will exchange full information on all their strategic facilities 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 countries parliaments and even then only after the two sides had made so-called special statements or recommendations but there are non-binding and will not affect the actual implementation of the deal the original text remains untouched to remember there were. threats from hoax 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 n.t. missile defense system which includes russia the united states and the european

union all sharing the 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. and with 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 the idea of take it or leave it doesn't work here if we don't work together russia will have to compensate like it or not an emerging imbalance. getting rid of all cliches any reason dividing lines that's the message was by most here in germany a country which learned from bitter experience what being divided is all about. a lot remains to be done to irreversibly overcome the accumulated historical cliches phobias suspicions all our countries need to follow the principle of the the in. visibility of security we are ready to follow serious collective work in

the key area of year a land tick in global policy the time has come to take a choice between common strategic interests and the immediate political expediency . but clearly not everyone is able to get rid of all the stereotypes we are proceeding with because of the threat we face from iran not from the soviet union. when you look from the former. this meeting in munich is fast becoming a major stage for people to look forward among other issues dominating the talks were the current on risk 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 since it's a great opportunity for world leaders and top level politicians to share their
10:03 pm
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 is going to munich. dr adrian pabst from 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 as we saw in november at the nato summit in lisbon president b. of 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 diffuse tensions of the last three years and
10:04 pm
move forward in a more proper 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 be very careful as to where they want to put out because that would really set back relations by many years. stay with us here on our team still ahead revolution or riot. why do you think the media sometimes called an event and sometimes called it a revolution. i think it probably depends on the news commentator he's imposing his opinion on the sea would it surprise you to know. that. we gauge public opinion on the international media's handling of what a crisis in egypt plus. the way over some americans say political correctness has gone too far as even classic literature is biting itself in the crosshairs of

censorship. but first russia's most wanted man terrorist leader doku umarov claims 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 the extremist website of also warned of more terrorist attacks to come authorities believe he was also involved in the march two thousand and ten moscow metro bombings that killed thirty nine people as well as that of ember two thousand and nine bombing of a train heading from moscow to st peter's square. 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 demonstrators for his resignation has passed with no word from the president according to state media the leadership of the ruling party has resigned in response to be an arrest along those who quit was president mubarak era apparent as the political crisis enters its thirteen day both the protesters and the president standing as we reports from the
10:06 pm
capital. it is raining intermittently people are still frightened and people have been huddling for warmth around campfires and intense respect maybe it's just been floozy as him and the real belief in what they doing that is essentially keeping them warm it was a chill in the crowd 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 those here in conflict 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 needs to step down from the presidency at the same time i've been speaking to him in this and they can use an expression that when a person has cancer you don't treat that can set by giving them one one vesper and now only a saturday the head of the army's central command visited the walk from the one
10:07 pm
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 can filming was actually confiscated and we were warned that if we did 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 tell the square on saturday president mubarak met with the top of. his 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
10:08 pm
country is facing at the moment well saturday's demonstration was dubbed the day off so i daresay 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 egyptian and american citizenship we saw the same kind of scenes being played out in europe across the state eleven on the turkey in iran and as far afield as south africa at the same time the mid east quartet it did meet on the sidelines of the unix security conference and there the u.s. secretary of state hillary clinton seared into 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
10:09 pm
international community to stay out and stop meddling in their own internal domestic issues. the international media coverage of the unrest in egypt painting a fair picture of what's going on there to find out laurie harford it's also known as the resident hit the streets of new york to ask people what they think. 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 events 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 when 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 despair. first.
10:10 pm
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 now as a member our no. not really i mean as oil right because that's what it always comes down to you know the moment 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
10:11 pm
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. mind your language as a tool against inequality and discrimination political correctness has become a part of our everyday life but for some in the us these self-imposed restrictions are being taken a step too far or he's worried a port 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 to hold to to
10:12 pm
