1:14 am
they're in this campaign because it is the easier part of the thing done you have been talking about it all over the world in all the conferences if you were to head this menace it is the same thing as said if he could catch a thief you have to wait informants and pay them and this thing will go down on you hit hard and that is what we are doing and the support that comes from the international community is the countries which are destined for this drug are feeling the heat of the mush who thinks more emphatically and then nothing in order for ever numbers which is not happening at all i am blaming the international community not for doing enough if unity c. had been there for about fifty is the question is has it reduced the drug it hasn't in the united states of america did in a while its time for the last and most immunity of the so much of forces as it greatly reduced the drugs production did it has not so what can pakistan alone do

1:16 am
in syria he rights activists say over eight hundred people have been killed and thousands arrested since the uprisings began in march the same meeting the e.u. also tied in measures against iran to pressure it to abandon its nuclear program meanwhile the u.s. is also impose sanctions on the syrian president calling on him to leave the transition to democracy however middle east experts are seeing believe that one goes far as the u.n. resolution similar to that imposed on. syria is a much more complicated case because there are some other more important political actors in the region involved so i think a u.n. resolution is much further down the line if at all obviously i mean we have first israel we have lebanon we have you run involved it's also a question of. the people that might take over there is the internal dynamics of having religious minority in a sense being in control of the state and the other whites on their president bush
1:17 am
. and what will happen to them if there is a sudden swing in any other direction basically the you can say that there is a certain inherent logic to sanctioning countries and. actually start to improve in a way to reward would be to remove sanctions or you would basically continue trying to. and by pressure and in the case of iran we are just continuing that kind of path regardless of what's happening in syria the latest sanctions particular ones the deal with iran's economy that is cutting it off from the financial system if you will of the world is having an effect on the ringgit society and economy at large but they were put in place primarily in order to affect iran's ability to acquire the nuclear capability that might and the need for weapon and on that particular aspect i think they haven't had much of an effect yet. now let's take a look at some other stories from around the world in the ash cloud from dropping icelandic is causing further disruption to air travel some flights remain grounded in scotland while the threat hangs over services in ireland and england it's called
