10:11 am
leaders in the living capitals of russia needs to take counsel measures to outweigh the illegal actions of coalition forces. the nato operation is already flagrantly illegal because of the way they're there they're violating let me put it this way the resolution violates the charter and nato is violating the resolution they go to sea blockade growing here real power is used to protect. that pool of al qaida and other terrorists and it's used to attack civilians i've seen homes here where four or five little children essentially. preschool kids were killed in the middle of the night by problems watched by aircraft from forty thousand feet that is a very powered very ready to wage war so we're in the midst now of international where our certainly countries like russia would be very well advised to do something urgently to try to restore the rule of international law and that would ruin some more energetic measures against what the united states britain and france
10:12 am
are doing. cathy genesis hoping that talking to us from tripoli on the way some ladies you wouldn't want to mess with. as it turns out arm wrestling is not just for the guys here in russia's north caucasus more and more women are getting into the act and we managed to wrestle the secrets of some of this poorest superwomen. now a star studded international film festival in moscow is heading for a seat to be dramatic climax it's now only and most of our bow is before the judges announce the best film in its cross live to our correspondent peter all about thinking of all the glitz and the glamour for us out the closing said many people what's happening on the red carpet right now give us some names which movie stars have you seen already. well there's been quite a few coming down the green carpet i must outfits why it's green or one of the problems it's caused being green in just
10:13 am
a few moments but yes we've seen on the mcdowell coming down here also john martin the director of the movie that is closing out the the festival that's the debts it's a spy thriller a set around the mossad's israeli spy network very very highly anticipated movie under the boat to be able to see that myself and also dame helen mirren the star all but movie as well as a whole host of russian celebrities from stage screen and this world of sports as well no i mention this green carpet the might be able to see people walking past. well i asked the organizers when i was speaking to you last week at the opening ceremony why it was green i couldn't get an ounce of then i finally being told and so unfortunately answer is terribly boring one thing that isn't boring is some of the problems that apparently it's been causing. for women trying to get ready because they're. putting on costumes full the the red carpet was apparently green
10:14 am
is a terrible color to have your picture taken again so a lot of stressing inforcing is going into making sure that they have the the right dress so that when the paparazzi snap goes off they look out their best of course when i found this out i was also going through a similar stretch to make sure that i was wearing the right garments to make sure that my shorts would look just as good against this green background some of the professional some of the stars they had professional help and picking out their costumes. i've always wanted to visit had been very lucky to be invited to see had an incredible experience to get to see this beautiful city and i'm very surprised at the weather you know you're very fortunate to live in such a. gorgeous city when inside the kremlin and get to see inside the kremlin i learn because it was closed and. they architecture is amazing it's a credible just like now you know the place is unique uniquely russian and that was
10:15 am
one of the things i look forward to to see with the architecture because you're so famous for your architecture it's a wonderful festival. well of course they wouldn't have any need to be putting on those glamorous dresses if it wasn't for the thousands of people coming out to watch their movies now we were talking to the legendary russian directed nikita because he was the president of the festival he was telling us this it's really been literally standing room only in some of the theaters over the past week to see the movies sixty thousand people turned out to see the movie. that have been on display and i'm sure he has missed out the president of the festival actually missed out on being able to see some of the things he wanted to see because there was that much there's not many people wanting to get into the theaters so he was saying no reason why next year begin to make it even bigger and even better or of course apart from the kremlin a crime as he was saying all of the movie well this is a power of films themselves that he's not fit to pick up
10:16 am
a car. well of course what this festival is all about is who picks up the festival award the golden george the golden statuettes of st george slaying the dragon the st george was the symbol of moscow excuse me. that will be announced in a few moments time if i have to pick one of the many movies that are up for it my money goes on american translation a french love story with a bit of a twist certainly a bit of a twist on it turns out that one of the people in this young couple as opposed to murdering people so it is a really entertaining thriller i managed to see that you're in the we talked quality film something that i said gets my tips for picking up the gold and george of course there are other older awards hummed out today dame helen mirren will be picking up essentially a lifetime acting achievement award based on this last year was the excellence and after doing throughout the career shows talking to her just a few moments ago just before speaking to you and she was saying she's very excited
10:17 am
about picking up this award and very excited about contributing to making the moscow film festival one of the best in the world good luck with star passing that piece unfortunately for you call it does matter microphone rather nicely say no worries i gave you to all of our reporting on the thirty third in fast almost a film festival so much. well social media gives everyone a chance to play their part in any story is that a communication revolution encouraging mass uprising in some countries and causing controversy in others with the perceived lack of censorship resident in new york hit the sidewalks to ask what people there think of the social networking scene. in today's social media driven world you can post whatever hate speech doctored photos or other nonsense you want with virtually no consequences how do you feel about that defining our times this week let's talk about that i was as to looking
10:18 am
a guy on facebook logons and by mistake instead of writing his name into the sets i put as my status was all good i knew how to meet these things very quickly adding everybody to what he did you learn your lesson yeah yeah people just put anything on young girls young kids you know home addresses and everything like that i got a nice. open approach is a true people see what you showed not what you actually are in my experience and if you put something on the internet people will watch and think that's that such your life you know when when people could be sitting at home doing nothing for a whole weekend they might just make things up just to make themselves more interesting a lot of people tend toward being snotty or rude and they've been taught through television and other media that that's that's the new cool yet there's a shift in our culture going on for what that was that will change as people start to understand that day and result of that is isolate you isolate yourself when you
10:19 am
do that kind of stuff we need to be center of attention as the world just become a giant high school yeah i would say yes we are all of the big society we owe a high school we all hated it so why do we want to live it every day i think a question that it isn't and it's almost even in a more middle school that sort of mean girl kind of being and i think even adults get into the bullying which is kind of sad but do you think that as we grow as a society people will get smarter about what to post or will it just get worse and worse i think people always be people you're going to have people that are smart you know people who don't nonce and i think you always be fruitcakes that put things on the that is just unhelpful and home. regardless of how you feel about the pitfalls of social media the bottom line is it's probably going to get a lot worse before it gets better if it ever does. russia's the caucasus region is known for its founding male wrestlers but now all
10:20 am
the local women are hot on the heels home going on in the gym and testing their limits to the max and the art of arm wrestling some of these ladies at the car full speed back in where the novel's tees but that of course of our finds out that haven't become international. there is little clue as to why there's quite cornell flushed out in the north caucasus clyde's issue powerful secret because as hair there we point perhaps some of the strongest women in the country but they're hoping their arm wrestling talents will one day be shared with the world in the olympic arena. i mean of the cell of a began wrestling in nine hundred ninety four but now she's clearly a super woman with town world and fourteen year old gold medals born in a small village in the mountains she says that she has achieved everything she wished for and now it's time for a younger generation to follow in her winning footsteps i've been as big as concerned though is that there's poor it doesn't get the recognition she feels
10:21 am
a deserves sometimes we simply don't have money to go to the championships after training so hard young girls are losing the stimulus to continue when they hear that there is no chance for them to go unless they collect the money themselves one thing that might change that would be if the sport was made part of their limit games bringing one tension and financing competitive organize and i began in california a nine hundred thirty two and some games real popularity arm wrestling is one of the most peaceful calm the dischord that actually doesn't require any special equipment and people of all ages have a real chance of winning if i did i mean quite so. and. that's why i had the chance of winning right now i'm going to check it out myself thank you i. would certainly it's an easy task standing out worse of the gym i've been as
10:22 am
a trainee louise asked as she doesn't know if she'll ever have enough money to go to the championships but she never loses hope. maybe it is an incorrect comparison but sport is like a swan for me once you get into it there is simply no turning back i tried to start but i can't live without it and there will continue hoping that one b. will be recognised by the public. it seems like an occasion women are flowing hard on the successful heels of their man who are many of the world's models in almost all tribes and wrestling and with girls' hair seemingly determined to break the stereotypes we could soon see more in more high heels and making their way into the wrestling and arenas. i didn't see the republican for the sas you know. every time mel jenkins another international news in brief this hour of the syrian president to cite a key official after friday's anti regime demonstrations believed to have been the
10:23 am
biggest yet bush our us signed a decree removing the governor of the several city of hum our from office tens of thousands took to the streets nationwide rejecting ourselves promises of reform and demanding an end to his or authoritarian rule activists say the government crackdown which began in mid march has claimed almost fifteen hundred lives. at least thirteen members of a family died when a roadside bomb struck their many of us in southern afghanistan the group including two children were thought to be afghan refugees returning from pakistan through the volatile border area roadside bombs planted by taliban militants are commonly used in the country elsewhere in afghanistan the local council member was killed by two government who opened fire from the motorbike. so it starts between bahrain's sunni led government and the shia opposition following months of anti-government
10:24 am
protests they claimed thirty lives the shia community in bahrain claims longstanding discrimination against the majority group thousands of people participated in nationwide demonstrations demanding political representation. russian tennis star bridger out of those grounds to get out on the grass in the world and final attracting attention by striking looks is not just sporting prowess and twenty four year old has become the inspiration for an entire generation of tennis players are going into the secrets of the success. that. was. what the russians call it big tennis to distinguish it from a ping pong match to the amusement of foreigners but now russia's racket wielding darling has made it to the biggest tennis tournament of the more. reassured upriver is in the womb final again it's a great feeling in many years but it's
10:25 am
a really great feeling when today i was in my best match of the championship so really happy to get through and to say. it's pretty amazing that stage since her win at wimbledon in two thousand and four and a real mania has turned up with her into a star off the court as well on peaches and catwalks she's joined the hall of fame with jaw dropping russian tennis woman but she only wants to talk about the tense i told myself to just take it one point at a time and really focus and. i thought i could just kind of got in my zone so we went down to one of moscow's toughest young tennis tournaments the club here claims to be the home of tomorrow's stuff players so what do these young russians think of their compatriots example that. i think she's very positive and not everyone could have sasha patients patience is very important in tennis. i've always liked her
10:26 am
even when i was very young i started playing because i wanted to be like her and now that all are telling me i'm playing away her god no i think i find very strong inspiration from her i really like the way she plays she has very good technique joyce fights until the end and never gives up one thing nobody can ignore about her up over. that grant or scream or whatever it is we decided to sample some of russia's future grunting talent can make compete. because one of the stars this club has turned out is catarina pope hoover she was ranch aides here in world under eighteen rankings but she forged her career in russia children of those been in america since she was seven doesn't lessen her
10:27 am
inspirational appeal but. it's right she is russian or else you need to. be working harder i might have to put in a few more hours myself. ok so i probably couldn't even beat these kids at a game of tennis but that's because they're out here every day practicing even on by heroes like maria sharapova or maybe because they haven't mastered the all important. but without a time pass and they're screaming for a. headline not got a horse all coming your way here.
