eleven am here in moscow this is r t thanks for joining us now we start in egypt where the country's military leaders have to solve parliament and suspended the constitution taking power from deposed president hosni mubarak well the higher military council said it would stay in power for six months or until elections are held a committee is now being formed to amend the constitution and separate laws for the interim period egypt was governed by martial law for nearly three decades under barak's rule while some egyptian and arab media are reporting that the eighty two year old former head of state is in poor health and may even be in a coma cairo has not confirmed the rumors regarding mubarak's condition meanwhile after washington called events in egypt a victory for democracy author and journalist option or says it's not an american triumph. i think the people in tahrir square certainly don't want to see field marshal tantawi and. vice president they don't want these people in power but of
3:02 am
course it is not an american victory and the people in tahrir square want to see the back of the army that was strange in the united states and we must remember more than three hundred thousand still disappeared and the egyptians will remember who trained the people that tortured killed so many of their relatives egypt's economy is in. chaos a lot of the companies that are stationed there have been stealing the money so a lot of the egyptian people might see the muslim brotherhood is one party to watch because they do have social programs and grassroots movements whether they have been useful when they've been clever in the past three weeks is a different matter because their leadership some might say maybe out of step with those in the grassroots organizations of the muslim brotherhood runs which creates housing and food distribution so on to to the poor of egypt. well many of egypt have been voicing their discontent that for the forces at play of the country well
3:03 am
later peter lavelle and his crossed i guess discuss where the revolt should go next . it's really a red herring this question about whether the united states is involved we're involved that's a reality we have to deal with it the question is how do we ship that involvement so that we. know what we should do under we have nobody is trying to undermine their leadership positions nobody is trying to undermine the leadership of the united states and the fact that they have their own interests every country has a right to have interests and to defend those interests but what the united states have been doing in egypt is not to defending interests as in any other it has been foreign intervention they have this do belies egypt they have caught up to the egyptians they have neutralized egypt egypt has not been allowed to be a sovereign country for three decades and this has got to end the egyptian people are making it very clear that we are reclaiming our own sovereignty.

but you can watch that debate on cross-talk in less than thirty minutes time here on r.t. well our military contributor says the u.s. must admit its defeat in egypt and shift its focus back to the situation in afghanistan compare afghanistan and pakistan with egypt u. my trailer is what looked. as an abject failure for the u.s. policy in egypt after all these highly appreciated success under mubarak regime egypt has built one of the most professional army is in the region if only as i could have accomplished what mubarak did for egypt he will be praised as it smashing success story for the u.s. policy in afghanistan mobarak regime cost only one point five billion dollars a year compare that to almost seven billion dollars a month to prop up
3:05 am
a puppet regime in kabul and now you give the flare that situation in afghanistan is much worse then in egypt and that's why it's high time to concentrate and focus how the united states is going to breach the gap between its democratically service for egypt and legitimizing corruption and drug and warlordism in afghanistan as popular restaurants up northern africa there are fears of a fresh wave of immigrants flocking to the e.u. but the old world is not waiting for them with open arms western leaders one by one admitted the policy of multiculturalism in europe is not working artie's it in a go to school has more. the concept of multiculturalism seems to be failing all around europe we fail to provide a vision of society to which they feel they want to belong ah this approach has failed utterly up. my answer is clearly yes it's
3:06 am
