wealthy british style. is not on. the. markets why not. find out what's really happening to the global economy cause a report on our. very good evening for me kevin i will hear it out in the national tonight our top stories for you the u.s. congress is preparing to vote on the last minute deal with three republicans and democrats to raise the debt ceiling and avoid default but critics say the compromise doesn't solve america's financial problems and its reputation is going down the drain. the u.s. and the e.u. stepped up their push for sanctions against the syrian government after a crackdown on protesters reportedly left more than one hundred people dead posco

says violence on either side of the country's conflict is unacceptable. egyptian troops clash with protesters in cairo as military police move in to break up a rally hundreds of demonstrators are counted out in tahrir square for weeks now to demand a faster pace of change after the february popular uprising. next door she speaks to russia's deputy foreign minister about the consequences sequence of events has come to be known as the arab spring because down of explain why moscow opposes any u.n. resolution against the syrian regime despite its condemnation of continued violence in the country. and developments in the middle east concerned the entire world and russia is no exception russia is a permanent member of the u.n. security council as well as an active member of the international court or in the middle east russia's deputy foreign minister mikhail but none of your users to

discuss recent developments in the situation in the middle east and answer the question what had the region is going through the arab spring some experts say or a period of decline just about done of before you became deputy foreign minister you were russia's ambassador to egypt for a number of years and witnessed the tragic events that shaped the country the life of the best majority of egyptians remain bitterly hard and was constantly deteriorating do you think there is a possibility that egypt will experience another way of mass protests this time inspired by economic demands and what are the prospects for egyptian state or considering the influence of the region. it is true i was russian ambassador to egypt for over six years and i saw the social economic and political situation unfold in the world's largest out of country we are deeply concerned about egypt's future but we are also aware that any crucial decisions taken should only be taken by the people employing a democratic procedure in a referendum plebiscite or

a nationwide election did you know that there has been an action plan for reform drafted in egypt which includes reforming the electoral system for both parliamentary and presidential elections introducing amendments to the constitution adjusting existing legislation on adults an important new laws that will affect the social economic and political aspects of life for the out of community we who are going to gyptian friends achieve progress and success on the apostles reforms we have seen political struggle for among various social and political forces including islam is movements we are following all these events very closely we think the best way to result. any problem is to start inclusive nationwide dialogue . or your turn to syria now which is one of the most difficult problems in the region the west responded negatively to the statements and actions of the syrian government they use tightening sanctions against syria the un resolution has been used to probe the situation for the possibility of military intervention how high

are the chances that western countries will indeed unleash a military campaign against syria. we realize the city is going through a very difficult stage of development similar to a few other countries in the region and internal civil conflict between the government and part of society political social and economic problems are greeted both in terms of numbers and complexity we think the best way to deal with these problems as a nation wide dialogue combined with crucial political social and economic reforms we support all efforts aimed at launching and promoting a substantial dialogue between the government and the opposition we adhere to the notion that both parties should abstain from violence and gaging constructive dialogue in a not the state of cooperation we wish them progress he states as he said the syrian government and president assad have delivered a number of statements on the reform plan for instance the president's speech to damascus university pretty presented the action plan for reform during our negotiations with zillion leader we insisted that it should be implemented step by

step in a consistent manner promptly and efficiently we also call in the sitting government to keep their promises and live up to the hopes and aspirations of the people there were article expressed during the mass rallies. russia has refused to even discuss the draft resolution on syria proposed by france what is the reason behind such a tough stance especially with regard to the fact that moscow did not stonewall the u.n. security council resolution on libya are there any other ways of resolving the syrian crisis with their international help. but we believe that the city and should address their problems as part of their domestic it. and that this is an internal civil conflict and it should not be internationalized as for the situation in libya of course every country is unique in terms of its particular situation the background of its conflict in form and the scale of public protests on the other hand we should learn our lessons history first the un resolution on libya you've mentioned we are all witness to it and we still see it now the number of

international players tend to grasp from the street observation of both the instructions and the spirit of these resolutions therefore we are not really concerned the such loose interpretations could only result in making some of the opposition circles taking their position and opt for a tougher approach which is by no means opposed of achievement in terms of finding a mutually acceptable solution. as far as the opposition is concerned international observers point out of the demands of the syrian opposition are quite in sync with the demands put forward by the west could this be considered as evidence of some coordinated process in place and under such circumstances meaning that the syrian delegations visit some mosque or have. the way i see it the syrian opposition is not homogenous it is internal opposition there is external opposition and there are forces that indeed translate to a certain degree the opinion of some part of the public different think that we cannot talk of opposition as

a uniform force some of it is leftist some stick to socialist or communist views there is a liberal opposition and islamist opposition represented by the muslim brotherhood and other islamic forces there for i think this matters a lot and makes a great difference in terms of our contacts with various parties i must say that we maintain contact with practically all of syria's social and political forces left. europe is becoming increasingly wary and this is a point that would mean military campaign in libya conflict shows no sign of ending the plight of the civilian population is deteriorating radically what measures would you consider necessary for the conflict parties and the international community to take in order to bring about a solution both in political and humanitarian terms. because if someone from the very start we have urged the parties in the conflict to cease all military action declared a truce and work at a sustainable solution for peace in libya in order to kick start the process of political reconciliation in this regard we have highly appreciated the contribution

of the african union which prepared a rule of law for reconciliation in libya the u.n. secretary general's envoy for libya is also contributing a lot to this process having come up with a number of additional settlement proposals addressing military and political aspects we actually encourage in promoting these constructive ideas put forth by the african union found the united nations as you know there have been several meetings and also with representatives from both tripoli and benghazi and a russian presidential special envoy travel to tripoli on benghazi we also maintain contact with the various third parties as for the humanitarian situation in libya you are right that it is a matter of serious concern for the entire international community and recent days we have provided additional. aid shipping food medicines and other humanitarian items to both tripoli and benghazi. as we discuss events in this region we can't avoid touching upon its key problem i mean the palestinian issue new generations of israelis and palestinians separate shorts and the middle east peace

process was once still haven't seen any feasible progress in negotiations would you say this is a bad luck or is there a way to get the peace process on track and what would it require. like you said the palestinian issue is a key issue for the entire region i believe that regardless of the out of spring on the developments in particular countries in the region the palestinian issue will remain pivotal for the entire arab world and for the region in general i also think that it will remain pivotal for our israeli partners as well i spent five years as an ambassador to israel myself i am personally acquainted with quite a few top ranking officials book on the israeli government on the palestinian national authority as well as the palestinian liberation organization on the numerous palestinian factions and i think that everybody realizes that the palestinians and israelis are bound by destiny itself to live side by side as you know russia advocates establishing an independent palestinian state as soon as

possible for this state to live alongside israel maintaining peace and security we are committed to this purpose both as a permanent member of the security council and as an octave president of the middle east quartet there was a ministerial meeting of the quartet in washington recently which featured a very specific detailed discussion on the situation with regard to the palestinian israeli truck we are certainly concerned with the negotiation been stalled at the moment the negotiations can be suspended who still hope that both parties will find a way to agree on resuming the talks with a view to establishing an independent palestinian state as soon as possible and to resolve all of the remaining issues and not just reach a final settlement between israel and the palestinians. you were russia's ambassador to israel for five years and treated for six year alone formed about the situation there tell us what is the present role of really in the palestinian israeli negotiations would you say that the present format has exhausted its

capacities and we should look for new ways what is your assessment of the quartet's latest meeting in washington. what. the quartet is a perfect format for providing international assistance to the israeli palestinian peace process i happened to attend that meeting person as part of the russian delegation which was headed by foreign minister sergei lavrov and i witnessed a very constructive discussion and i know all the participants from the ministerial meeting of the country date comprehensive analysis of the situation and identify the reasons behind the can stall in negotiations and also discuss various future scenarios of the situation and most importantly the members of the quartet agreed to keep in touch and cancer to keep an exchange of opinions and proposals running all the time all members of the quartet have committed to keep talking to both parties in the dispute this is based on understanding that there probably will be one more meeting of the quartet in september once the un general assembly convenes for a regular session and york and all of the members of the quartet will be there to discuss the situation one more time this proposal came from the russian foreign

minister in the hope of the parties may come out with a certain adjustments to the positions so as to be able to resume the peace process the thought is not the case the quarter we discussed other options for dealing with the situation and failing to the initiative that is currently being discussed by the palestinian public and has already been endorsed by the art of the leak which is the idea of taking issue of establishing an independent palestinian state to the un general assembly. the people of the united states and their friends and allies will not live at the mercy of an outlaw regime that threatens the peace with weapons of mass murder is regime as an actor program to acquire and develop nuclear weapons and let there be no doubt about we know for

a fact that there are that there. this work is being carried out under the direction of dr david kay respected scientist and former u.n. inspector was leading the weapons search in iraq we are determined to take this apart you have a tremendous a group of dedicated american men and women involved in this with the best assets of the intelligence community can provide. data cheney is not going to be done with this for quite some time david kay wants more time and he says if you take another six to nine months to make a definitive finding ministration is asking congress for hundreds of millions more six hundred million dollars to fund the continuing search have not yet failed shiny pointy things that i would call a weapon before we can draw from conclusions we need to let the iraq survey group complete its work. we were all wrong probably in my judgment and that is most disturbing. sometimes the true

patriots takes the unpopular course that helps the country of origin stakes and even if they come this way and it is from tonight patriotism is the last refuge of scoundrels and i think these are scoundrels they have no argument now they have no defense for what they did the country is in a terrible international security situation and i think it's perilous so they're attacking the patriotism of others. it used to be an ideal place for a holiday and could change in a moment. the good news is your are still visible. the republic is not only relieved but also shaping the future. wealthy british style it's

a. free. market. happening to the global economy because a report on our. headlines from the u.s. congress is preparing to vote on the last minute deal between republicans and democrats to raise the debt ceiling and avoid default but critics say the compromise doesn't solve america's financial problems and its reputation is going to drain. the u.s. new step of their push for sanctions against the syrian government after a crack that protest is reportedly left more than one hundred dead moscow says violence on either side of the country's conflict is unacceptable. and egyptian troops clash with protesters in cairo as military police move in to break up

a rally hundreds of demonstrators have camped out in town a square for weeks now to demand a faster pace of change after february right. here is back in full in fifteen minutes with make heaven i mean right now though. hello thank you for joining me for the monday night sport roundoff and this is what's coming up like her records claim russia leftwinger you what is your call for such to be chelsea and joy trash which in a twenty million dollar movie. wall break italian on cars not a lake one more indoors in march when she clearly has a better stay rock bottom the russian premier league. in the road wins the russian stage of the world's truck driving championships to extend his

lead in the overall standings. goble first low and the news wires are buzzing with anticipation that chelsea and russia will get you to cough is one step away from joining three spending russian premier league side g. twenty seven year old is alleged to have visited the club's training ground as those reports suggested even agree on a four year deal just got a joint russian i'm chelsea from tesco team years ago but failed to secure a regular possibly starting line up after series of knee injuries first roy a new reported move is said to be worth around twenty million u.s. dollars however and he's management has declined to comment for any deal is actually signed flagstone side signed brazil legend roberto carlos in february. well on the pitch i'm cast not a late equaliser and some are as you go one on one with me as the rest of the remaining bottom of the russian premier league home side who are on course to move out of the drop zone as they were one zero up after ten minutes through a crack up by a man and a man but with nine minutes remaining the. popped up with

a late equaliser planned for a clear straight bottom with a poor record of just two wins as it saves all this season. and i wouldn't look at the foot of the tie looking for this reason as of now i have twelve points missing a chance to read about and spot right now just because of that late fall and translate eleventh but seven points clear of the allegations and. then in the meantime russia defend alexander new call for signed a five year extension so you this current do with since in petersburg times a year old put pen to paper a day after the russian champions but starting spot acknowledging one they'll close the gaps to scots of five points in second place five took the lead after twenty three minutes and picked a pad that for the exam because of golf had the illegal of the game and the defending champions hung on to run out one of the winners pick up that eighth victory and. so to style it into a story of a sudden passion of its own that he was president where they took

a seventh minute late wednesday seeking home that's ben holmes lied missed the first tough penalties in the post before finally he lies in only out and like in triumph and won this time it finished the amens leader who wrote down five points. in a certain hour also maintains that top three position with a two no return to a resilience time involved aside the new bores were reduced in numbers with less than profit now a place yet to be allowed back in the team yellow cards in just over a minute and with one advantage demand i finally reached the visitors' defense after an hour taking the lead through and you see a strike this time for. example get off competing. school line into ranger it's my field it's the first to rebalance sunil. gulati state sevens with a three no when it lost off the meeting last fall he met in the first office just

eight minutes he's still going against that and it's off the attack as it occurred on quote handle the ball and that makes the situation double laughers lead from the penalty spot on three of us off scruffy looking like it's the guy the league at home saw you also used to ten men for the last few days after only gets up the second guy like this is great stuff in the locker manager's like we said it was two wins from two. so a lot let's take a quick look at the top of the table after eighteen matches it says sky who are still in the lead in cities have to close the gap lope five points between now and our first post be followed by angie and ruby. i mean while a goal against league leaders say scott doesn't even though he has the best of the pa season what kind of adult equalizer for. woman for a way to be on and that may strike consequence things that he's put sight that is worth another look at the strikeout banking and right across to stone most people if they have them sat through the likes of wayne rooney spike was high school kids

against manchester city the popular votes. and in the meantime spanish jones well madrid have been ridiculously outnumbered and wanted only beaten because mismatch in clubs history was here on our album and his team mates took on one hundred ninety local kids in chile doc and the reason was to remind everyone by our standards that nine years ago these scrappy encounter was also a part of their preparations for a pre-season friendly at one level round the new league this season kicks off in spain in three weeks time. now in just a month to go before the european basketball championships russia have been dealt a major blow in their preparations out of their sense sasha cohen has been so. i blind with an injury and twenty six year old the shadows to undermine a groin surgery on tuesday it will take him up to full weeks to rehabilitate really good rounds of international v.c. david lat squad however before might retire just to live and play for the lanka for

much harder to prove it once to a famous golfer on the denver nuggets are all expected to find the five russia in it you idea the continental championships are vital to qualify for next year's london olympics and russia's only european triumph in four years ago i. thought i was where three american n.b.a. stars are who turned a journey for the first time since gold there three years ago when i wired chris paul and come out on small hurdle coaching from within a capital to bring back promotional tour of china to close the three have been left to do so as recently as a lockout threatens the new n.b.a. season so this could be rather a lesser crime or how the trades in beijing in fact have a camera on and a street down side or maybe even also hoping to stay in the chinese need to belabor results back home or. stay in china and the aquatics world championships may be over despite winning four goals in shanghai there's no time to rest for michael phelps as the greatest ever olympian has been named as global

ambassador for the special olympics these are the games for children and adults with intellectual disabilities girls i've helped in a four year basis the next special olympics will be twenty thirteen winter games which will be staged in the south korean city from china which is also set to host the twenty eighteen winter olympics fourteen time gold medalist phelps is joining the likes of thai possible star and well given field attack us in this to raise awareness of the special olympics also hoping to shine once again at the london games next year. really the way i have in the water a big mental it was. you know it was two years ago really. you know over being able to get that out of the last sixteen months i think it is going to play a huge factor in my performance next year. and finally to my sport of a heavy juicy variety. han has extended his overall lead by winning the latest

stage of the european truck racing championships this weekend which is small and soaring in central russia the second straight year of drought i don't know i'm reports. power and speed only one of these trucks gear up to one hundred sixty kilometers an hour and could have done even faster if they hadn't been restricted by the issues of the european truck racing championship in high esteem action which he rushed over the last weekend just mind week two year old track designed by famous formula one targeted camel to get posting to sports elite for the second straight time to defeat lack of the two thousand and eleven european championships. the reigning champion and don't know what didn't prove to be the fastest freiburg year and so they school vacation and star three swans from pole position although this isn't leader you can come close

to would take this money and lead the way to your team let actions and turned into a deal between the two you could just finish fire while i'm melting to film in this room for knowledge because taking did find that it was like the steak but on the snatching victory in the dying seconds of the race i was trying to close the course i had all the labs to see if they make a mistake at the end i happy he made them stay yeah and i want to write code and show it briefly but my verse could not work and so would the box they were back in the plant police to which according to the competition regulations for the top eight start in your birth order and for fortunately shine the guilty plea in the first event of the day germany's marcus oestreich was keen to take his chance and when while russia's biggest hole in the sport and sundry look finished both races in the ninth place pretty disappointing for the thirty nine year old who claimed

his first victory in spain earlier this year but far from fulfilled his potential in front of scoop around my. i would say performing on home soil is a bit harder for me it's not the other responsibility you want to produce your best make your fans happy and i also try to share my time of the fans who want a photo with me or sign a poster so it cuts both ways however there were still two long ways to schedule with something so still time to set the record straight to keep the race week down to be the decider you can convert to belief in clean confident victory well a book finish for you to finish a second race in the room you technical problems too hard to fit in a single believed in playing over to a commercial stage of the european championship just like we did last year but it's about a good life on a loss and i have pulled muscles and israel i have what i make

a big step in the champion and i've done the heavy it's money and this is how it stewed when it came to race food week with the winner you cited to prove to be a true deep state or was it to play lovers and not stare in visions and when there are drunk still sitting scores amongst themselves something the russian fans of most would look forward to witnessing again in two thousand and twelve robert but a young r.t. some through russia. and that's. why from the. fifty. fifth. just finished. yet.

and. people. in india call she's amazing.
