i mean allegations of the ruling military is bloody practice is a question whether their revolution for justice and democracy has only put in place and other dictatorship. economy to security the leaders of russia china iran and afghanistan join their central asian counterparts for the summit focusing on the challenges facing the region. these are live pictures from greece where more anger spills onto the streets in the face of public causes the stress to the government plummets the economy. and in businesses how the other thing of the russian markets was drawn to the subdued today however things could be looking more positive as investors and await the

decision as to whether they'll bail out greece or bring the full bill wasn't around twenty minutes time. eleven am in the russian capital you're watching r.t.m. read a joshua the jailing of at least seven thousand people by egypt's military rulers will be reviewed by the nation's interim leaders amid allegations of torture and abuse the behavior of the army since taking over from the ousted hosni mubarak is causing anger among those who took part in the revolution many are skeptical whether the generals are able or even willing to bring about the democratic changes so many died for our financial reports. never sleeps. eighteen day out tries in. ousted president mubarak has woken up the hell nation

these has become a common scene here and this to. amnesty international estimates at least eight hundred forty people were killed and more than six thousand wounded during the protests that forced a tyrant to step down but even in a barrack free country the reason room for fear and frustration. right his brother was among fifteen young men killed in the violent religious strife that hit cairo just weeks after the revolution egyptian christians and muslims clashed following reports that a young christian woman was kidnapped and held in a coptic church after she married a muslim and converted to islam but even then he was a christian coptic it wasn't a muslim that killed around his brother. and amish neither shot my brother dead and a bullet went through his forehead and it came out on the other side and i saw it with no one here has a weapon like this on a soldier's there it's hard to grasp what happened. rather blames the army for

taking the life of his younger brother and the revolution from giving the army so much power. that we expected the army to intervene to protect people just don't mind answering but instead they started to kill people themselves are we didn't expect that all that it that the people of egypt didn't expect many things they didn't expect the economy to collapse they didn't imagine the path to a free and democratic society would be such a bloody and painful one they just wanted to free from dictatorship and didn't expect it all to find themselves under get another one in military one the power in egypt now since mubarak is out rest firmly in the hands of the military chiefs of staff. they were sitting literally in the pentagon war room when the twitter revolution started they are running the show there has been no displacement about

military power but this is a washington installed as i call it in my book full spectrum dominance to tell the tarion democracy the people who stood on deaf ears square were jubilant the regime that oppress them for more than three decades was going with how pharaoh as they call the dictator would soon finally face justice for what he's done but months on the revolutionary euphoria has got as well and people are asking themselves was that really was the hundreds of victims and did they really get a better country in. egypt is at the crossroads it could go towards chaos or democracy the worst scenario would be of the army continues to rule in the country sinks into blood from a civil war it's up to the people to decide. so a month since the freed shook the whole arab world it's clear the revolution may now be part of history but the fight is far from over narration ocean r.t. . human rights watch dogs report little sign of positive change in egypt since

president mubarak was forced to leave but activists david keys says there is growing evidence of crimes committed by the military some have been jailed simply for criticizing the government others have been brought up on spiritus charges of quote unquote insulting the military but increasingly and certainly given the incredible high number of detentions detentions of civilians not attentions of people who have you know tried to undermine the regime but people simply criticizing the military this is a very dangerous trend egyptian dissidents and bloggers who were imprisoned in military prisons and they describe incredible torture they describe electrocution they describe waterboarding to describe regular beatings and this was the egyptian military that stood behind mubarak until the last minute so while there have been gains and we hope that egypt has a brighter future ahead of it there are still many many challenges that it still has to overcome if you just is going to move towards democracy and liberalism and

openness in the west in fact has a very important role to play human rights activist david keyes commenting on reports thousands been arrested on in egypt by military rulers since taking over from alstead hosni mubarak. now a group of influential central asian states including regional heavyweights russia and china are meeting in stand to discuss the fight against terrorism in an area was more than its share of issues with pakistan and afghanistan in the neighborhood the shanghai cooperation organization faces a number of challenges are just us are still years following the atom gathering and explains what they are. presence of countries such as pakistan iran and afghanistan you will certainly bring a whole range of issues to the table however before these countries as well as other participants join the original six members which include of course china russia india as c.e.o. summit the original members will sit together and a look at the past ten years this is their anniversary to see what they have

actually accomplished and redefine the goals they have for the future because these goals definitely hat is not going far beyond the original goals of fighting terrorism and extremism although still these are very important issues as well as cross border talks but they have extended as you mentioned earlier it to the economy and the economic trade deals that they have set up even the cooperation in energy sectors even education and culture and these countries will also come together to have a common approach to world affairs such as the situation in the middle east and in north africa now with regard to the presence of iran here it is expected that they will be talking for example of the nuclear program of the country. is in town of an observer state that is it does seek a full membership however there are un sanctions against it and this can prove to be quite a hurdle because there are u.n. representatives here does want to work continue its relationship with c.n.n. c.i.s.

countries now with a presence of afghanistan the country is here as a guest it is very timely because the members do want to discuss a post. after nato troops withdraw there have been doubts expressed that. may not be ready and so they want to discuss what is the future of the country in dealing with the threat that they think is going to be dangerous to the stability of this region grouping also in relation to russia's concerned russia is looking forward to the approval of the five year anti drug strategy we know that ninety percent of the drugs in russia does come from afghanistan so the presence of the president of the country here is very welcome a lot of important issues they want to lay out on the table. certainly reporting there well there's plenty of hat for you in the program including why the u.s. building a secret cia drone base in the persian gulf to fight militants in yemen. they went into the waters of the arctic and plunged down to look at the titanic but what were

the two russian many subs doing at the bottom of one of you works largest lakes. the greek prime minister is facing tough opposition as he tries to push through more cuts to persuade europe to hand over more billions and new bailout demonstrators gathering in the heart of athens want to prevent a vote on a stereo measures by stopping m.p.'s from entering parliament r.t. sarah ferguson is there for us. athens is widely expected to receive. packets from this year's same party is in fact european finance chiefs hammering out the details of that rescue plan at the moment that trying to prevent your area's first default opinions on whether greece is going to the folds of his payments very widely some people are saying that it's fantasy to imagine that will be allowed to happen now that people are saying really now it's a question of when and not. being happening hit on the streets of greece where here

the syntagma square protests later on today you're going to see huge number of protesters taking to the streets they're going to be ending up at the name calling the bills a they're going to be protesting against the proposed was full of these new austerity measures that they say completely unreasonable now they said the angus really been building for a year they've come up against incredibly tough economic conditions there's a number of unemployed the late stages said sixteen percent between what pulls out of the job so really the thought of new measures being put in place to that is unreasonable and there's been lots of people are asking when the troika that the i.m.f. years his central bank and the e that provided the initial to the chain of one hundred ten billion euro it's going to look hauls the bed out and move on to plan b. because the thought that greece can manage another bet out package and pay back that loan for a lot of people are simply i'm realistic the praises that have been happening

outside the parliament building have been compared to the arab spring uprisings what's interesting about the process we've seen happening in these very thing countries like spain like greece is that these are countries with an established democracy many people consider greece the best place and the most for say what people here are saying is a wise inning in the gap between what the government and the men say and what the electorate a cooling full in the thirty's. thirty five years old proper parliamentary democracy in greece there has never been a government facing such a crisis over legitimacy it's an open political crisis here the government is trying to govern but the people refuse to be governed in this way and what they're saying is that when you have it's really millions of people taking to the streets and protesting against these measures and the government still pushing ahead with that well at that point it really have to not go see any will the message is very

clear that it tilts the pocket and there are patients who we bring you all the latest from the states about this. reporting there from greece now you are a master germany is expected to bear the brunt of greece a second by a logjam an m.p. calls peter well says the people in this country are unhappy about footing the bill and doubts whether it will have an effect anyway. you would treaties. it was regulated that there must be any bailouts because. otherwise. you wouldn't. really be. talking since. those countries are a country. and as long as each country is responsible for its budgets. it's to take for the sponsibility. and the only right answer to that

is no but we decided to say ok we have to work out its use and. it is hard to explain to people when you get the reports from. greece or so. the average working time there are people. that's what we elected you for. and watch the full interview with german m.p. klaus peter welch in just over an hour here on r t. yeah ammons government says dozens of people have been killed in u.s. drone attacks in the country over the last few weeks many of them civilians washington recently resumed its unofficial military campaign against al qaida terrorists there fearing they make spoil the current unrest in yemen to seize power the cia is also reportedly building a secret air base in the persian gulf to target militants and has gone if you can says introducing cia spooks will move the operation into the legal shadows. the

decision to task the cia with tracing down given marks a major escalation of america's covert war in yemen which is not really covert it's one of the on an undeclared wars that the u.s. is waging against terror but up to this day in yemen it's been the u.s. military that was running the show that was carrying out the drone strikes so if you watch gratian with the yemeni counterterrorism units but now with the power vacuum and all the political turmoil in yemen the cooperation is falling apart and according to u.s. officials because the cia operates under different legal authorities than the military the cia will have greater latitude to carry out strikes no matter what the political climate fear the greater the last you know the worse they don't have to ask anybody's permission to bomb the country the yemeni leader who is now out of the country after months of violent popular revolt against him and his government for many years had been supported by the u.s. in exchange for letting americans go after all quieting gehman as we could make

tables often taking credit for the u.s. drone strikes we have to remember that scores of civilians were killed in those rights so the support of the yemeni authorities was much needed the u.s. should carry on with the operations on the other hand the government the alley abu . salim who'd been in power for some thirty years was so unpopular in recent years among the people of yemen that many analysts say it was only due to the u.s. support that sally had stayed in power for so long so for years sally needed the u.s. and the u.s. needed solly but now with a political turmoil there the u.s. shows they will continue to bomb yemen whether or not they have the permission to do so from actually the people of this country pakistan is one example of popular revolt against the cia drone strikes thousands of civilians were killed by the u.s. drone drone attacks and you know most responsible for that even though the pakistani parliament. as demanded to stop the strike the country's leadership

continues to allow the americans to carry out the operations although the pakistani leadership criticizes the killing of civilians but they do little to stop it many analysts say their support for the bombings will continue as long as they continue to receive billions of dollars from washington people there are furious in one year the u.s. u.s. drone drones killed seven hundred civilians in pakistan but they netted only five actual militant leaders numbers that some experts are giving more gruesome the former chief counterinsurgency strategist with the u.s. state department has estimated that drone attacks kill fifty non targeted persons for each intended target nonetheless we now see the rapid expansion of the cia drone war. reporting there now we can also catch up with the stories we're covering online or t. dot com there's plenty for you to explore for instance some money never sleeps to us auditors to look into the disappearance of more than six billion dollars for

of the art russian mini subs are plumbing the depths of switzerland's lake. explains why for the first time ever two russian deep sea subs the legendary meters have made it to the ball some of switzerland's the law just water to gain a better idea about its jolie contin they should levels of lake geneva within the next two months research from switzerland germany the united states will carry out physical chemical micro biological experiments given that lake geneva is the main source of potable water in the region well the nearest submersibles more used to call in siberia they also reached the border all ocean in two thousand and seven and bagged than part of the russian expedition presidential envoy to the north and south poles. planted a titanium capsule on the arctic ocean floor to symbolically claim what could be an

itchy reserves beneath the sea and again this time a capsule of the russian joe graphical society was on the lake geneva in his seventy second year russia's number one goal amount he was willing to take to the depths once again. as a politician i feel it's better to me. and one of the participants of today's comes from a renowned family which actually invented. hello mr i don't you tell us more about your father grandfather. grandfather or. first ride to the stratosphere. to the but this case to go to the deepest spot in the ocean he built it with my father and then my father in one thousand sixty together with don walsh who is one of the greatest friends of my family he gave me the

countries and this of course is the great potential that makes the russia track before. volkswagen is one of those six companies it's a great to join you produce new cars with gas group which makes the gazelle and vulgar brands total investment will be up to two hundred million euros with the german company contributing more than half that amount the firms will assemble volkswagen and skoda models the first vehicles a juice a roll off the production line this also in the hands of gazprom explains why the company has chosen volkswagen as a patna. we have been very successful with our l.c.d. production and sales. secondly we had a nice sure what to do with your personal car. capacity and here we look at different options some folks like and became the best option. and in does deal we will produce on the ten thousand vehicles for eighty years for full jargon
