now so to. the. syrian activists report a more victims of the regime crackdowns claim the opposition forces are being joined by a defector claims just missed by the government as it simply. goes up among new york's anti corporate protesters who win the right to continue camping the occupy movement so. it's here even zuccotti park in downtown new york city where there are not conflicts but the york city police department will continue remains to be seen as the occupation grows. and the
10:01 am
european central bank says it's done all it can and it's now time for governments to take the lead in saving of the region's economy. it is friday evening here in moscow you without me welcome to the program seven people have been killed in separate incidents by syrian security forces who reportedly opened fire on the regime protesters the total number of casualties in the conflict is now well up of three thousand and that's prompted the human rights watch group in the chiefs a call for international action so avoid a full blown civil war activists claim troops also clashed with army defectors who fought alongside the opposition and the government insists nothing but bandits to threaten the public are silly reports. about one hundred eighty kilometers north of the mass this is a city of on the last on
10:02 am
a site of five days of recent deadly clashes between security forces and protesters in which at least thirty died it's close to the cities of homs and hama where most anti assad protests have been taking place evidence of fighting in oliver stone is plain to see there was an air of suspicion the tense mood only broken by children now smiling but only two weeks ago these youngsters were witness to violence in their hometown like this eleven year old we heard very heavy fire we heard airplanes but didn't see them it sounded like they were flying high we were really afraid and we were crying the whole time. the child was one of the few to talk most of us on locals we met were hesitant to say anything about what happened telling us they didn't want to get into trouble. the areas governor gives his explanation why the military arrived there were groups of people who had their own demands they had these demands for a little while and then it all escalated when they armed themselves we started the
10:03 am
situation not become a threat to the people and that's what we decided an intervention should take place in. the inside since we have to. be this is the way of what the way i'm working with me see here this was what it. was basically we. are here. but opposition activists insist that these were not on the outer terrorists but army defectors so far the government has said little on the subject of decisions from the military i think it's kind of a strategy by the government and the weakening of the morale of the of the army and then one of the assyrian or divorces so if they talk about the friction. well it. could be there will be more of the fracture so instead he will.
10:04 am
always start with this kind of this will serve the cause but under the circumstances the morale of most affected by the violence in understand is that a ruthless so silly our understand in syria. occupy wall street protesters are now just one the first battle is after a mass cleanup effort by new york city officials was canceled activists against corporate greed considered an attempt to undermine the month long rally. was in the midst of the events in new york. thousands at least two to three thousand that are turning out here in said cody park got behind me the crowd is a little bit smaller now they have gone on a protest stand out a march near wall street we actually just got reports of a clash with police but the massive massive turnout is really fueled i guess speculation by the police departments by this has been a stray show and the mayor is the destruction here in new york that. with so much
10:05 am
media attention so many people they really couldn't afford another instance like what we saw two weeks ago where unprecedented number of new yorkers were arrested as part of the wall street occupy wall street occupation so i think there was a lot of fear that flashes but it happened and part of all of this is the fact that these protesters most of the ones i've spoken to are determined to stay for guard as the what the police does one man who i spoke to yesterday when we were really expecting some c.t.'s clashes had this to say take a listen it's a pretext. taishan to come here and move people out and then said new conditions about moving back here it's just it's a good move to just watch this group so we pretty much understand what's going on here we have twenty four seven. around here all the time and there aren't really any issues but we're going to make it to get her to get because she had rain everything so you know we've worked hard for to. you know you know and that really
10:06 am
has been the attitude for most of the people that we've spoken to here protesters for scrubbing the floors on hands and knees but really it's not about sanitation it's not about the cleverness of the park it's about the fact that these movements are spreading across america they're popping up in hundreds of cities across the country and folks simply the idea salish meant the police departments the politicians they're nervous they have not seen this kind of unprecedented movement in the united states and at this point it does not show any sign of windowing we do know that chopper fifteen going to be the big data was. this is where the situation but expected to spread but massive protests planned all across the country including here in new york the occupiers plan on staying here in zuccotti park they plan on urging in times square in the evening which should be very interesting to watch a lot of these presidents in times square bomb or potential clashes because we have
10:07 am
to keep in mind most of the arrests most of the confrontations with the police have been when protesters leave this area and walk down the streets that gives the police here a lot more of an excuse so to speak to. put people in corners and try to stop the movement that way but for now while the pope's here are determined to say we've seen terrible weather rain or polls they have not been deterred by that so be very interesting to see how this plays out and whether he can play out peacefully or whether we'll see further crackdowns like we've seen for example in denver yesterday in seattle and across the country. now spreading. global protests. explain to people in india who joined the club. that energy that's happening in new york city and across the united states is definitely spread here
10:08 am
to asia and actually you could use the movement here has mobilized on facebook and on twitter and they're planning an actual occupy type a whole hong kong jakarta high providing even flom of god so the movement in asia is growing there is a lot of support for a so here in india. and there are a lot of similarities between the goals and the mass ijaz of the people in the united states and here in india we saw a massive anti-corruption movement here in india recently that was fronted by and i was there are a word thousands of young people showed up to support his fast against the government so many of those people are said to come out to this movement as well and ninety people compared that corruption movement here in india to the arab spring and now people are saying it's a very it has very close ties to what's going on on occupy wall street people here
10:09 am
are a little bit suspicious of these multinational companies these corporations that they're talking about over in the united states the sickly american companies you see it happen a lot here a while and yes economy might be growing the rich in here are getting richer and the poor are getting poorer and it's the foreign corporations that are really benefiting from india's young workforce so very close links to feelings here with what's happening in new york as well. as a crusader right that was the occupy wall street movement opposed to go global we are watching closely as the rallies take place in europe across the u.s. but miss our special coverage of stars and under twenty four was of course the go to be saturday october the fifteenth. the truth by throwing poverty into the feel. anger is why there are countries waging flowing as well causing jobs and social
10:10 am
spending people across the globe against their government's economic policies follow the worldwide actions against austerity like. you always see a lot from moscow it's good to have your company today are still ahead of the program it's now three decades since the self-proclaimed republic of the transnistria announced its independence but there's still no sign of progress and solving the breakaway states problems shortly we explore who is to blame in just a few minutes. the european central bank has called on national governments to now do their part to ease the debt. cliche spoke ahead of a key meeting of world of finance ministers who are gathering in paris to hammer out solutions to the crisis our europe correspondent daniel bushell now has the story. the patience of european central bank does seem to be running out it says that it can't really take the whole burden on itself it really needs the governments to come to the european governments come through and take some action
10:11 am
because the latest country problems with spain it's seeing problems with its solidarity or failure solidarity it's had a downgrade of its rating a game which is going to make it even harder for it to raise money and pay off its debts we're expecting protests tomorrow to have the biggest protests so for over thirty measures in spain now russia's prime minister has come out and said that europe's governments could solve this problem if they wanted to. the crisis is more of a political than a financial issue according to different estimates between one and one trillion dollars is needed a number is big but the user can handle it it's a political issue because in order to counter those resources leaving you in countries must offer a shoulder to those in trouble and that takes a little courage so governments in europe are accused of passing the blame no one wants to take responsibility but russia is one of many countries which is concerned
10:12 am
by this because of course when the european economies are suffering the rest of the world has a knock on effect is the latest country which new also there are two measures that means more taxes potentially education health costing more and we are expecting coordinated action coordinated protests across europe including in lisbon over those austerity measures over the cause which are thought to be extremely painful for the population now we've also seen the job saying that he does expect those governments to come through with those cuts in order to balance his budget but there is a meeting today and some more of the world's leading finance ministers as they try to tackle this crisis has been in portugal. just been too painful for the people to take these austerity measures marco. some of those victims of the cross i'm afraid i'm afraid in the future i'm afraid. things
10:13 am
going to be like they are in greece right now people here will be symmetric they're not going to be able. to have a good while to have. lucia is an active member of the portuguese indignados deliberate movement its participants believe the government is hell bent on pleasing the rich and powerful and ignores the needs of the people there to truly help to realize that we are not. we're not going to pay for any longer problem. it's happening and it's happening everywhere and spring here in greece. the worst period of unemployment in thirty years at over twelve percent rising taxes and falling wages are the reality of portugal's bleak present situation things are so bad that people are now making comparisons with cataclysmic periods in their history and looking to them for inspiration leads the century portugal was in a situation similar to this present state because it was lagging the capital was
10:14 am
all but destroyed by an earthquake but one never keep about the reciprocate them that's his stature right there managed to pull the country out of the crisis three hundred years on however if you believe everybody will be able to perform a similar monumental to. the portuguese indignados say the solution is to create more jobs and cut unnecessary expenditure but the government to a sports injury seventy eight billion euro bailout earlier this year pulling in the footsteps of greece and ireland to pay it back top of stairs because had been introduced which will see longer working hours less holidays and even an end to the christmas bonuses which most workers enjoyed at the age when you are meant to start your life so you know have your own space around you know. tap kids you know to hear. if you can you can't do it you can't do it because you can't afford to do it and howard noxious is that. natural system and the political system that is
10:15 am
intertwined with the financial system we've got that is so completely twisted that conditions that trade so this this to me. personally the biggest thing and there's the crisis grows so too do the ranks of the outraged members of the indignados people who will unite forget nationality the national review feel very. well. and build another europe not there because not in a crappy. national government they are not democratic. ravitch will be forever but the problem is deceased i'm not surprised. at the call for global direction or looked over the fifteenth from the occupy wall street movements in new york is expected to get a loud response in portugal but for many of those who will fill the streets here it's not so much about revolution as it is about turning it into
10:16 am
a simple fight for survival if you. will. and i will cover each of the unfolding debt crisis in europe are always available on our website c.n.n. dot com but also some of the items on line to right now a wave of criticism and fears of a cold war like tension on the korean peninsula as washington plans a new face for its navy in south korea but also. imagine a job where you do nothing but sleep i get paid one hundred fifty dollars a day for doing it proposition really is on top of right here in moscow right by the full story of our team. now it's sixteen minutes past the hour here what's go is reportedly preparing a response to washington's planned missile defense system in europe that follows comments by the incoming u.s. ambassador to moscow who said that washington cannot guarantee the system would not target russia. it's going to these details. washington is speeding up its plans
10:17 am
for its aging missile defense system in europe despite all these alarming questions coming out of russia screen calls romania and turkey have agreed to host elements of the system longer a territory in its plan that the shield will be finished by twenty eighteen i fish really it's supposed to protect washington's allies in europe from potential threats coming out of iran and north korea but it's moscow has been sounding the alarm saying that the system could be a potential threat to its national security moscow has been proposing that this project should be a unified shield which would include russia and the united states where all would share the responsibility for the cd of each other but washington and some nato officials have been saying dietary this is not possible since russia is not part of the alliance moscow then started asking for legal guarantees from washington that
10:18 am
this is no will not be against russia but the newly appointed u.s. ambassador to russia michael mcfaul was quoted saying that his country has no plans of making these illegal guarantees we've already heard from russia's mboya to nato meeting about boys and said that if this is the case then moscow will have to start thinking about making its own efforts to every store of the strategic balance of forces in europe and now there are also reports in the russian media from a source from the kremlin which says that russia will think of a cheap but affective way to answer washington sending this out to find suppliers in europe so we'll see how the situation develops but it is not for me a fact that washington is not planning to back down on its anti missile defense plans. right there. time for the world update here on r.t.
