oh geez availability in the movie joyce be the children's the home of villains the great way to go to the grand imperial truly the george was the bush girl until you can oh well as i told her joe it's a duty to go publicly and run the since the colonel was no joke as used to retreat . egypt's former president hosni mubarak is wheeled into court on a hospital bed in a car or you're looking at live pictures inside the courtroom there well where the trial will be held to six months after a mass protest forced him from power then you can see a whole barak inside the cage he's facing charges of causing the deaths of a nearly eight hundred fifty people during the reason revolution it's also setting trial with his at senior aides more like it's coming throughout the day. the u.s. swallow self-made bitter pill to avert the devastating default a country that never has a base to talk about the chance to advise other nations through their economic

struggles and it turns out to be prepared to have all its own crisis. and moscow once again scholes up the u.n. to target the syrian regime urging fractions and push the warring sides towards dialogue to every escalating violence in the country but this comes as fresh crackdowns are protestors are reported. in business play pal could invest up to twenty five million dollars in russia the world's largest online payment portal plans to open a moscow office on a journey for full business because of the point that some. suffer one pm here in the russian capital you're watching r t and now to our top story egypt's ousted president hosni. barak is in court on

a bed of facing trial six months after being toppled while outside the court clashes have erupted between supporters and opponents of the top leader leaving one person dead and at least fifteen awarded all of our extra for the killing of protesters during the february uprising as well as corruption of let's cross live for correspondents outside the borders who's in cairo for us so it's finally the ex leader has been brought to trial but there was a lot of speculation over whether he would even make it to court was there. absolutely have the speculations continue to swirl up until the wee hours so once there whether or not hosni mubarak will be able to make it to the courtroom now i he found i went to great lengths to protect him as this frail old man who is now being subjected to these thoughtless procedures why the opposite of the strong man image that he enjoyed north of now over the past few months you heard multiple reports of he's poor how he's in france in fact that he was he suffered from our

heart stroke he was suffering from the recurrence of his stomach cancer that he was slipping in and out of consciousness that he was experiencing a major a fit of depression that he was refusing to take solace in just a couple of days ago his lawyer went on public television saying that he was so frail that he needed assistance every time he went to the bathroom now taking into account these prideful male culture all of. it is a really embarrassing revelation but now in the last hour that if i can use the drive the point that mubarak is really frail and he may not be able to stand up until it's very and now for many egyptian people especially those who were camping out on the traffic square back in january and february all these reports are poor how things are not being. more than just the actually except ploy.

distract attention from the crimes that he stands accused of these charges include conspiring in b. killing of about eight hundred thousand people he's also faced with multiple charges of corruption and if guilty he indeed could face of death by hanging now it needs to be pointed out that so far we haven't heard anything from mubarak but in the task. interrogation of relief to the press we know that he denies the whole the charges he says that he never gave any orders of using violence against the protesters and that he does not accept responsibility here for these crimes that he now spends accused of ok well of mubarak is accused of causing the deaths of your lead over fifty people during fabrice revolution but since then more protesters have died so just what has changed in egypt in the past six months. well exactly

that and that attack to the fact how much or how little i would say things that really change in the end it just mubarak is accused of killing those four eight thousand four hundred people but doesn't of people have been killed on the top three square ever since he sat down and the only difference between these two groups says that those people killed in the initial uprising and now refer to as martyrs that families are receiving time since i do who were killed out towards after mubarak stepped down from office i referred to as socks and criminals and as you just pointed out and not a person was killed in the clashes today and i have to tell you that there is a growing sounds of this illusion and then as the egyptian society as regards to the truth of this revolution many people still does life has really become worse ever since hosni mubarak stepped down from power it was a goal of many while come his trial but to tell you more how things changed here on

the ground here is my reply here is a report by my college money for an ocean a. this quaint cairo is now one of the most famous in the world and many around the globe even those with little knowledge of arabic know its name the phrase means liberation well the revolution of january put this part of the globe on the map but apart from that what else did it bring the people of egypt. this man has been running his own business for thirty five years it used to bring him enough money to send his son to study to canada and take his large family broad once. between the economic devastation caused by and rust and political uncertainty mohammad's in the price has been adding factors now he can barely had food to feed his children he says the wave of change may have brought freedom to egypt but it's brought a survival strong in its wake. but you know i love the revolution

when it happened i welcomed it but look at the time with a light at the end of the tunnel we see it's not getting better we have nothing to eat just don't tell me about the market for hungry people it just doesn't matter. the plight of poverty fuel the revolution your growth has dropped from five to just one percent some thirteen million people live below the breadline unemployment has hit twelve percent. egypt's revolution was regarded as the most successful arab spring chapter it took eighteen days to end one of the world's longest dictatorships former president mubarak will face justice within days charges of corruption and sanctioning killing which carries the death penalty of five months on there is little satisfaction and dictator free egypt is far from the best place to live. and.

now probably about as much. is good. and this is a very good result people are indeed tired even those who back the changes this young man is from the revolution youth caliche and he tries to remain optimistic because he says sounds a lot like south conviction yet you cannot just say we've been living under mubarak for many many years too many i'd say but it's great what we did but we do need to be more patient and this is difficult we have a lot of problems right now but we do need to wait for a little longer. recent new demonstrations in fiji square show that this toy's season has been pushed to the limit and it's protests versus haitians in the battle to save egypt from crumbling for them. an option r t cairo.

trillions that have been pumped into the system since the panic of zero eight struck by the federal reserve by d.c. with the stimulus bailouts too big to fail everything they do they turn to a failure of the business of america when i used to be young when it used to be business now the business of america is war and you can see by the new ones that obama started and the old ones that he keeps going have the violence in syria is picking up pace with reports of government forces have issued a storming the opposition stronghold of hamas and are cracking down on protests across the country around one hundred forty people are said to have been killed over the past few days meanwhile the u.s. has locked in heated debate over what action to take on the crisis artist but in a fortnight has the story. the united nations security council wrapped up their second day of consultations surrounding the violence in syria with what many believe is at least

a draft text that each member of the security council will now bring back to their respective capitals there is a divide among security council members on where the condemnation along the u.s. and its western allies believe there should be a direct confirmation against the syrian government and the syrian president for the crackdown against anti-government protesters that have been taking place since mid march yet other countries like russia china india brazil and others believe that there should be a much more balanced approach ever words are used in any text that is put forth by the security council should not exacerbate an already sensitive circumstance in syria now russia has said in the past that it opposes on balanced measures such as saying sions that could create an even bigger problem and the russian ambassador to the united nations vitaly churkin has said. resolution dealing with libya he

believes was dealt with very frivolously and the security council can't help but keep that in mind when contemplating what the security council can and cannot do when it comes to the situation in syria and we're concerned about this collision because we think that the circumstances and security. of signal in favor of these women in the world and the security council will convene again wednesday morning to continue taking on this issue of syria and all the violence that has been going on for more than four months there. the u.n. mandate to protect civilians in libya has come under fire for the way it's being implemented and some countries feel the nato led coalition is using it to try and topple colonel gadhafi a political analyst and shellshock saddam he thinks going down the same path in syria could involve the entire region in war people who are actually

committing crimes against humanity is the nato u.s. military laos we see it hidden in libya there was absolutely no justification for the intervention in libya. this rection which which took place in eastern recently and is even less of a justification for the intervention in syria is a very important country and if there's been actually intervention in syria then we are in for an extended war which goes from the mediterranean right to the chinese border because then you have the integration of the of the wall theaters in afghanistan and iraq of course palestine lebanon on and so we're in for a much larger war let's understand any kind of delivery intervention in syria at this stage using the pretext of a protest movement or responsibility to protect we have devastating consequences

a peaceful solution that everybody is hoping for considering that the international community has an interest in solving the so-called north cause of the issue it would not be unreasonable to suggest that they are trying to sort of fix this issue as fast as possible and i strongly believe that if force is necessary to do what they have planned they will use it and we must also remind ourselves that the e.u. . of belgrade as an unwritten prerequisite to recognize course was independence and this would mean belgrade should accept kosovo's sovereignty and territorial territorial integrity which which is very complicated to explain to the people of serbia this explosion of violence of course is not helping belgrade because. the people of serbia. see this as a provocation and it is making their sentiment against reaching a compromise. not not very favorable for tried her side serbia has already made many concessions for the so-called republican poll so they recognize their documents their i.d.'s their license plates so i think calling for the albanian
