day on the russian capital you watching r.t. on marina josh welcome to the program first breaking news story russia and china have vetoed a u.n. security council resolution on syria the european back draft called in damascus to and its crackdown on protesters or face targeted measures but moscow and beijing said this could open the door to a levy a style military intervention are these more important has the latest from new york . russian ambassador to the united nations vitaly churkin said the draft was too one sided he described the resolution as a confrontational approach taken by the european delegation and against the peaceful settlement to the crisis now this draft resolution which was proposed by france with the support of portugal the u.k. and germany but the one part of the text that many countries seem to have disagree
12:02 am
with was that that called for syria to comply with a resolution within thirty days and if it if not comply then the council would quote consider its options including unspecified quote measures and many council members including china russia brazil south africa interpreted these vague terms as leaving the door open to say actions now of course russia's one is one of many countries that has been opposed to international sanctions against syria ambassador churkin says moscow believes the violence should be stopped through internal reforms and political dialogue not external sanctions or military intervention such as the case of libya you put in you see what you broke it. is not has to be was based on an entirely different philosophy the philosophy of confrontation because not agree with it's one so you don't use issues
12:03 am
against the mask we believe the experience of implementing sanctions against the syrian government is unacceptable this approved contradicts the principle of a peaceful settlement of the crisis based on a common syrian national dialogue or proposals in the freezing of the un acceptability of a foreign military intervention were not taken into a coma and considering the well known events in north africa can only be alarming so we were doing proposals to the opposition and the arabs and sober people today and to be associate themselves from the extremists is also alarming. brazil india south africa and lebannon of stained from voting on the resolution but it was the united states that voiced extreme disappointment that the security council did not bolt of italy adopt the resolution moving forward russia and china said that they
12:04 am
will be working on a resolution to gather that they say will be more balanced in the case of syria we do know that some council members wanted not only the syrian government condemned for the violence but also a condemnation against all the government protesters that may have been inflaming the violence that has been breaking out over the course of six months but that is a measure that the europeans did not want included in this resolution brazil had noted that had the sponsors waited a little bit longer before a vote was called. divisions could have possibly been bridged within the security council but as mentioned russia and china said that they will move forward to try to come up with a more balanced resolution on syria. neither reporting from new york and the syrian ambassador was given the floor in new york after the security council vote.
12:05 am
to have a chance to have a go at washington. the. u.s. is used to fifty times to reconnect israel continues to threaten to use the veto power this could be considered genocide. the common saw the entire u.s. delegation headed by susan rice walk out of the meeting in protest the syrian envoy was referring to america's stance on the palestinian bid for full recognition of the u.n. the white house says it will veto any resolution to grant statehood saying that such a move can only come through direct talks between israel and the palestinians. the chinese veto on syria after the u.n. security council resolution makes our relations with the u.s. even more. later in the program we report on how washington is trying to get back at regime for allegedly under valuing every you want and taking away jobs.
12:06 am
thousands of people unite against the government's latest round of austerity measures in a twenty four hour strike in greece flights in and out of the country are canceled schools closed and hospitals will be working at reduced capacity this nationwide protest comes after eurozone finance chiefs postponed greece's next bailout well for more on this let's now cross live tell correspondent sirrah for who is in athens sara what exactly are we going to see with this strike and what's planned for the day. just a couple of. the country's main labor unions leaving thousands of people. behind. the main parliament building protesting of course against the new wave. but in place of new announcements or not the job layoffs that's been recently they
12:07 am
really just can turn the public here as you said the flights in and out of the country have been cancelled schools and hospitals are expected to operate on a version of public transport is going to be stopped and we've seen this happen before out but that's part of the many many times people protesting against these measures. pushing the country into an even deeper quite. well sara what are the fears in athens now the announcement of the next bailout payment will be delayed was made. we have. been pushed back to middle kléber which the greek government has said they can survive financially and still that as we said before it seems extremely unlikely that they wouldn't get that next tranche of money that they need to keep afloat because at this point the situation really is not just quit school for greece because school for the rest of the year is a as well we're already seeing
12:08 am
a lot of concern about exactly how far the contagion is going to spread and he's going to be affected by the well is certainly the this is the place where say much of this is played out on syntagma we saw a couple of years but these scenes of the protesters up against the parliament building being pushed back by birthplace you know a couple of years on the we're back here again and what people are starting to realize now is that it's not just going to end here holds entirely in athens in greece this is really now coming much much closer to home we've already seen a storefront that quite is now spreading into what many fear is k.g.b. and not the banking crisis and there's been a lot of concern criticism as well about the way that the euro zone leaders have been managing this situation about their inability really to come up with realistic measures that are going to stop this crisis in the track and put it. back on the right track but the rest of the eurozone as well we've heard the protesters who
12:09 am
will be telling us they saying much the same as before that they're still dealing with these measures the plates are trying please international lenders that really these measures are nothing more than a sticking plaster over the gaping wound that is this all going quite as you know really people against you looking to see whether there's going to be anything that can be done now from preventing this financial crisis spreading into a very deep recession in the country and in the eurozone as a whole all right sara first thanks very much indeed for bringing us this update from athens. and investment advisor patrick young says that the european union needs to respond to the greek debt crisis much quicker if it's to stay intact. the european union are trying to take fiscal control of greece because they think that's the only way they can actually control the crisis essentially what is being fought at the moment is a battle for the sovereignty of greece the european union is too slow there's too
12:10 am
little leadership and there is a pig headed intransigence particularly amongst the finance ministers but there specially amongst the leaders of the european union asians in terms of understanding that they needed to move a lot faster on this crisis they still need to move much faster and ultimately time is running out because greece is leading the contingent that is going to kill the euro rule by the end of the year if we don't see and run production realistically about action means that greece needs to leave the euro because the problem is we cannot leave citizens of the european union to starve to death because it suits the troika of international lenders. well we now go back to our top story and we can now discuss russia and china veto of the un resolution on syria was. deputy director center for international monitoring research in beijing thank
12:11 am
you very much for being here with us on the program sarah sell her stuff why did china and russia vio this u.n. security council resolution on syria. i say is we're. importing the right decision for china and russia. the proposal a certain shows. is here in the atmosphere it is the surge is a nod to the past a way to settle a conflict or less because they cater all in by peers for dialogue we believed to have peace in syria and other countries so i think the us are. a very good division. well what does this mean for syria's future can you. great reason that. as it should be done the peace of syria is very important to the east as well as of for the region and the word sanctions ok we are ready of bad news for
12:12 am
all your people off to be out so i think russia and the counties to listen to against the sanctions against syria is a very good videos for a cure people and that will be very a beneficial for a peaceful settlement off a serious mystical conflict in the future. and how do you see relations between the us and china developing in the future. right now inside the us relation in the very critical moment to there is not very much now very much a trouble for example every. us military is she also tired. of trying to also you voted by us or so. to arm do you change the issue and the many azer trados i think us all these scenes the us government's maza take on a major whole response to give all these troubles i think the us government and the
12:13 am
congress white house and last to take action to. settle us relationships. well as we know russia and china vetoed a resolution on syria but in your view is there any possibility that the us and its allies my actually use force against that even without a un mandate. there is were a high possibility to verify probably before us or to act union naturally it will or will drive in all the us all in many cases always the feagles failure and industrial action so i think right on there is a very high. probably the key for us to take action against syria even we told is a certain part of russia. this is deputy director the center for
12:14 am
international monetary research thank you very much for being with us here in the program. china has expressed its condemnation on big u.s. senate's bill on the chinese one after it voted to allow a debate on the so-called currency manipulation bill the legislation would make it easier for the u.s. to impose penalties on its trading partners washington accuses beijing of undervalue its currency to help its own exporters taking away american jobs and china has told the u.s. to abandon protectionism and stop politicizing economic issues the u.s. house speaker john boehner says also spoke out criticizing the bill calling it pretty dangerous live journalist ad word harrison says america is just trying to spread the blame for the global economic crisis to other countries. well the reason to bring it up is to show that the. government is. in order to create
12:15 am
a self-sustaining recovery and therefore the problem must be elsewhere that is the problem must be europe it must be charted elsewhere it's not because our policies of failed course. that's really what is going on here the reality is is that the u.s. government's policies have not been successful as a result they're looking for places to please or to share the blame for the economic crisis that is global at this point but. really the united states the reason that it was a huge trade deficit not just with china but with other countries is because the private sector you see with. it if the u.s. wants to address the problem of deficits that is trade deficit it really needs to look at creating policies that raise private sector stable. thousands of americans are gearing up for another day of demonstration in the u.s.
12:16 am

12:17 am
in los angeles now a lot of the protesters here say they've gotten their inspiration from the demonstrators in new york and in athens and others are inspired by the revolution of egypt now there's still much debate about whether this is part of a revolutionary movement here in america but one thing that people can agree on is that some drastic changes need to be made as to how this country runs from the east coast to the west coast and a growing number of places in between a collective anger is unifying people. in the windy city a group has been demonstrating outside the federal reserve bank of chicago for more than a week in boston a tent city in the heart of the financial district means occupiers can voice their discontent with corporate greed twenty four seven. just by dozens of arrests demonstrators intent to show that democracy does not end at
