1:03 am
dialogue not external sanctions or military intervention such as the case of libya you bring you see what you broke the drone which was not to do it was based on an entirely different philosophy the philosophy of confrontation we cannot agree with this one so you don't use issues against the mosque we believe the threats of implementing sanctions against the syrian government is an exception to this approved contradicts the principle of a peaceful settlement of the crisis based on a common syrian national dialogue with. brazil india south africa and lebannon abstained from voting on the resolution but it. it was the united states that voiced extreme disappointment that the security council did not hold to mentally adopt the resolution moving forward russia and china said that they will be working on
1:04 am
a resolution to gather that they say will be more balanced in the case of syria now we do know that some council members wanted not only the syrian government condemn for the violence but also a condemnation against all the anti-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 a bridge to 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 where you know we're not reporting there from new york now the veto by russia and china follows three months of hated debate in
1:05 am
new york the disagreement has split the security council with moscow certain actions were justified now let's get more from the russian capital and that's ok response has more on this many see the power of veto as a last resort in the u.n. security council so why has russia chosen to use it now. what actually it's a rare case of russia using its veto at the u.n. russia has only used its power of veto seven times since the collapse of the soviet union i didn't case of syria russia felt that it ought to do everything possible to stop the resolution from being implemented to stall a scenario similar to what happened to leave in march this year the mandate. it was picked up by nato which side it was aimed at helping civilians you know that that would aid to impose a no fly zone over libya in that year security council vote back in march russia
1:06 am
abstained from the vote but the time and date will speak tough and as a result of that nato allies sided with and to gadhafi forces which helped topple the count so that in the case of syria russia is doing everything possible to stop these resolutions from being implemented and has told. not to let. that happen again what happened in the law to the russians the only prominent member of your security council which is actively trying to mediate a peaceful solution to the crisis in syria and it has hosted by representatives of president bashar al assad and also representatives so the opposition from see right there and it has also sunset about trying to mission a lawyers to see where to damascus and which concluded actually that democratic reforms are being implemented and that syria needs more time to bring them into force well meanwhile this issue of the leadership resolution in syria was raise
1:07 am
stop trip since march this year over two hundred people have been certainly killed in the violence or write downs on anti-government protesters damascus or visual damascus claims that those are a separate tourists whose five were killed to hundreds of officers and that's why damascus is now. trying to resist them but most of those still stands at the point that a one sided approach could only make matters worse now that the u.s. and the west and its western allies have already imposed tests are told but set of sanctions aimed against president bashar al assad about moscow says people on the fuel the crisis in the country and it will. stand by is must each ball the opposition to keep fighting. ok serious thanks very much indeed for bringing us the subject is really the charm forty life from the russian capital.

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 choose to postpone greece's next bailout sponsor firth is in athens. just a couple of hours' time you're going to be seeing the country's main labor unions leading thousands of people on to syntagma square behind me. the main parliament building protesting of course against the new wave of assertive urges that they see put in place with new announcements here in athens the job layoffs there's been tax hikes recently a really deep discontent amongst the public here flights in and out of the country have been cancelled schools and hospitals are expected to operate on a vengeance instead of the public charter schools going to be stalled and we've seen this happen before outside this policy many many times the people protesting against these measures they're saying pushing the country into an even deeper
1:11 am
quites this at this point the situation really is not just quit school for greece the critical for the rest of the usa as well we're already seeing a lot of concern about exactly how far the contagion is going to spread and he's going to be affected by it so while it certainly has seemed that this is the place where say much of this is played out on syntagma we saw a couple of years back they see the protesters up against the parliament building being pushed back by right place you know a couple of years on and we're back here again and what people are starting to realize now is that it's not just going to entail all syntagma in athens we've already seen this over and that quite is now spreading into a many fear is going to be another banking crisis and there's been a lot of concern criticism as well about the way that the euro zone leaders have been managing the situation about their inability ready to come up with realistic
1:12 am
measures that are going to stop this crisis in the track and put certainly greece back on the right track but the rest of the eurozone is slow we've heard the protesters will be telling us they saying much the same as before that they're still dealing with these measures that are put in place to try and play. international lenders that really these measures are nothing more than a sticking plaster over the gaping a wing that is this all going quite as and now really people are going to be looking to see whether there's going to be anything that can be done now for preventing this financial crisis spreading into a very deep recession in the country and in the usa as a whole. self worth reporting their investment advisor pattern says that the european union needs to respond to the greek debt crisis much quicker if it's to stay in tat 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
1:13 am
little leadership and there is a pig headed intransigence particularly amongst the finance ministers but they're specially amongst the leaders of the european you nations 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 contagion that is going to kill the euro by the end of the year if we don't see positive and rough production realistically bad 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 a troika of international lenders. china has expressed its condemnation of the u.s. senate's bill on the chinese swan after a vote to allow a debate on the so-called currency manipulation bill the legislation would make it

1:15 am
a result they're looking for other places to place blame or to share the blame for the economic crisis that is global at this point but nonetheless really the united states the reason that you know it's a huge trade deficit not just with china but with other countries because the private sector see. 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 savings. forces have valid to launch what they call a final attack on la market obvious hometown of sered several strategic areas of the city stronghold have already been taken over by fire before it leaves national transitional council aided by nato airstrikes colonel gadhafi whereabouts remain unknown more than seven weeks after the capital fell to the former rebels the ongoing civil war in libya began more than six months ago with over thirty thousand
