3:01 am
it's eleven am in moscow this is archie coming to you live in no way with our top story this hour the rebels in libya have rejected the possibility of staging talks with moammar gadhafi the national transitional council says they want to see him in jail and not at the negotiating table artie's redefinition has the latest from tripoli. what we're hearing here in tripoli from the rebels makes their position absolutely clear they will no be any negotiations with gadhafi and all they can provide him they say is safety and trial the rebels' information minister. has said that even if gadhafi personally calls him and asks want to go she says he will not never talk to him he has added that the rebels are not negotiating with the criminals and with the killers and prison not talks that is a had for the embattled colonel earlier. duffy is government spokesperson mostly
3:02 am
but again has sent a message to the rubbles about his readiness to hold talks with the rubbles on forming the traditional government has even sad that khadafi appoints his third son saadi to lead these negotiations but we have to say that khadafi is not right now in a position to negotiate he is not in a strong position at all because the rattles are progressing quite well this statement comes just a week after the assault on the libyan capital tripoli as a result they are virtually control in most of this city they are actually right now controlling most of the can treat as well the situation here in tripoli i would describe this situation as humanitarian disaster the tripoli council has said that from sixty to seventy percent of all residents of the libyan capital don't have enough water and electricity. due to technical problems they say in for sizing this
3:03 am
is not related to the fight scenes on the streets the city indeed faces severe shortages of food and medicine as well and any city even here in corinthia hotel where we are staying and where most of the foreign journalists are staying there is no water and this one third day water free day here in crete there so this situation is very complicated and people are struggling. east expert dan glazebrook says nato is using the rebels to make libya a failed state. this war is fundamentally a war to maintain africa in a subordinate position in the global economy in twenty ten give that he made a proposal to the african union that was adopted the fact that no african country would allow a u.s. base on its soil since that time the u.s. has been desperate to get rid of gadhafi when you talk about the rebels that this is a very disparate group of people really who's calling the shots as nato few leaders
3:04 am
that we hear about matthew jabril abdul julio these are people who have established links with western financial institutions going back over several years so really when when we hear from these people they're mouthpieces of nato place the libyan state with the same as what's replaced the state in iraq and afghanistan which is a dysfunctional gov complete lack of security gang warfare and civil war and this is not a mistake from nato they would prefer to see failed states and states that are powerful and independent and able to challenge their germany and those who are fighting for nato and in libya and fighting for the t.n.c. really need to understand that this is nato his vision for their country may need to wake up and seeing that they're being used. and sasser can see that lamb university says it was nato who helped make the red vault in libya possible and what's happening can hardly be described as the will of the people. western powers
3:05 am
have interests in libya among them most important of course libyan oil clearly there are bulls were created by the western powers initially there were few demonstrations that were paying. and then of course the western powers nato had interfere. is not just the military power in the area that they are pushing they have also increasingly weapons on the ground for their roles they have also supported them with special forces from britain even the united states but are giving them training and this in some way deal is the rebels because that puts a foreign imprint on sensually what was before that rebellion like the egyptian rebellion or the tunisian rebellion. british m.p. barry gardiner from the main opposition labor party says helping the rebels with their ground assault went way beyond the terms of the un resolution on libya you
3:06 am
can watch the full interview with him next hour but here's a look at what he had to say. it was very clear in the original un resolution it was very clear when our prime minister spoke in parliament here that there would be no patient force one of the things that troubled me all this was through speaking unreasonably as to whether there should be troops on the ground as the rebels were going into tripoli we. go when they go they go left these instructions being yelled up by obviously british soldiers british personnel who were leading that advance group now that i think is where we've overstepped the line.
3:07 am
meanwhile in syria violence continued throughout the weekend with activists claiming at least five people were killed arab league members have urged syria to end the bloodshed in an official statement that was rejected in damascus where it was described as a violation of the organization's principles later though the country's leader bashar al assad announced a new law to lifting censorship and granting freedom of expression parties are going to go to school went to the syrian town of latakia to see her for herself what's tearing the country apart. latakia bears a special significance for syria and for the president bashar al assad his father is from a village near the city in which the population is predominantly elevated just like the rest of the province the protests began here in march of this year this is one of the main buildings this is one of the main squares in the city of latakia with the syria tell headquarters. on the right in the middle of it syria tel is a company telephone company which was owned by one of the cousins of the president
3:08 am
and the protesters expressed their hatred towards the regime by looting the place and then burning it violence returned to vote again just a couple of weeks ago claiming more than thirty lives and to government protests broke out in the sunni part of the city officials said they were battling with armed groups which they say have infiltrated the area now what's the story here the story goes according to the protesters according to the opposition answer majority of the midwestern media sources is that there were warships stationed right here in this bay and there were shelling the sunni part of the town which is all along the coastline right over there and the middle of that part of the town is the palestinian camp but you have to keep in mind that according to the u.s. administration who are obviously monitoring the situation there were no warships stationed in this base on the seventeenth of august or earlier on the surface it seems to be life as usual but wants to take a closer look signs of unrest come through so we got to the sunni part of the town
3:09 am
and there are no signs of any fire coming from the side of the seat where supposedly ships were there differently signs of battle you can see by the bullet holes in the walls in the. forces so that. some buildings were damaged but not significantly some people unwilling to speak on camera gave us views critical of the assad regime saying the government is to blame for failing to deliver on five month old promises of reforms this they say forced the people out in the streets stirring up protests the reluctance of people to be interviewed may not be surprising given that we were accompanied by unarmed military escort throughout our trip at this point it's pretty clear to say that syria is at the crossroads people are scared and that fear is the only thing. that is holding this nation together but if you meant that we're keeping our our main goal seems to cherish each other opponent when we're like that how can we blame the
3:10 am
