executives to pay back their bonuses now to begin with the this action of occupy the london stock exchange was ridiculed a little bit in the press in the last couple of weeks but it definitely gained momentum with fifteen thousand followers on twitter and facebook for the event and people have been turning up here hundreds holding a thousand probably with huge backpacks full of food tents sleeping bags that clearly they're very serious and they plan to stay here a long time now to talk more about this i'm joined by one of the organizers spiro van leaving and story thanks very much for speaking to our tino how long are you planning to stay here we are planning to stay as long as it takes to see the government responding to people's calls until we see some change in your planning to march the stock exchange just behind the cathedral behind us we are being stopped was it was what are you going to do with the square right in front of the longest of the changes private like everything in the city of london really so the police has now canceled all the protesters just outside samples cathedral and i

bring out days here from london and the protesters try and take their protest to the london stock exchange at the moment not being able to use private property but he heard it they're not going anywhere until they get what they want. about it right there in the heart of london with a lot of anger over the financial woes that have been gripping the whole of europe has been centered on brussels heart of the e.u. political arena. daniel bushell now explains how protesters there are determined to make lawmakers listen. protesters a target in three key buildings here the european commission the parliament building and also the council there particularly angry here because you had one of the best social systems traditionally very generous retirement conditions also very good unemployment benefits and as one protester here put it the bankers gambled and lost money a first time the crisis came and now we're being asked to pay for their mistakes a second time now the reaction of the e.u. officials has been also making people even angrier when asked about their reaction

in the significance of the protests a spokesperson for the european commission said how does that concern us the e.u. employment commission allows law and order joked that protests to should go to frankfurt instead the seats of the european central bank the police reaction has also been excessive one m.e.p. invited around thirty protesters to his parliament's office in the e.u. parliament here and to discuss their concerns but he was blocked by riot police on horseback even though it was obvious that the protesters were peaceful now of the protests against the heavy handed security company in charge here called g four s. at the european parliament around seven protesters were eventually let through to actually discuss their concerns. from brussels let's turn our attention to the united states now where the occupy wall street movement was born a month ago protesters are planning a mass march on

a branch of chase bank to close their accounts that's followed be followed by a rally at the military recruitment center in times square on friday scuffles broke out between police and activists as hundreds walked through lower manhattan to wall street at least fourteen people were arrested the n.y.p.d. suffered a fresh accusations of heavy handedness when footage emerged of a man being run over by a police scooter and of another poster a protester excuse me being a punched in the face of claims of police brutality last week when officers were seen pepper spraying protesters in new york and beating them with batons. has met a man who's made it his mission to let the world see what's really going on. from the mass demonstrations of support. to the disturbing images of police force day after day the world has been able to watch occupy wall street in action through global revolution t.v.

a life led street document in the ongoing corporate resistance and civil unrest growing and growing in the big apple it's not about one political party or this or that it's actually creating a platform to have this debate without the being manipulated by the powers that be five years ago. was a derivative street or on wall street today this thirty nine year old is among those camped out in zuccotti park protesting against the financial institutions he once worked for i saw it on with leave combined with. the. system. wide with the stall the biggest bomb in the waters of us in the south the world economy co-founded i launched global t.v. here is weak. i'm going to bring people into explain what's going on when the occupation movement began in new york will such people how to shoot video you need to edit it they just upload it and try to make it go viral and the whole idea is

that you creating it's the thinnest record in the with this now that the movement has exploded worldwide the web channel will be broadcasting live streams for more than seventy countries and six hundred cities we're going to have a team of people that's going to be doing that with all the other squares as much as we can figuring out what's happening there and taking this stream of putting them on the global shadow so this sort of a model for a replacement for c.n.n. says mainstream media outlets will be able to marginalize or spin the peaceful uprising as people from all over the world take to the streets demanding elected leaders begin working for the majority instead of the financial elites it's a worldwide movement and if. these principles of equality are going to be defined everything because we're basically creating the united nations except the united nations united people the people of the occupy movement take their first fight with the world's most powerful economic and political force and this is the first

criticized and now spreading across the planet. artsy new york. so the occupy movement goes global let's try here now to track down exactly what's going on where we can across live now to these are live pictures here from the italian capital rome where organizers say they believe one hundred thousand people are expected to take part we've been watching earlier bellowing nearby we call the police in effect that we've got emergency vehicles we do apologize for the quality of this pixelation could be better of course it was freezing up a bit but those were live pictures from rome people in almost a thousand cities and eighty two countries from asia the americas to africa and europe they're all united in protest crowd. gathered in australia and new zealand italy and germany south korea and the philippines in hong kong hundreds called for the occupation of its central district where multinational corporations have

offices in tokyo protesters took to the streets decrying big business and income inequality as well as directing their anger at nuclear power companies taiwan's capital taipei is so people rallying outside the city's financial tower which they view as a symbol of corporate greed. but are throughout the day here on r.t. our correspondents are in europe and all around the world and in america as well bringing you the latest on the occupy together running so do stay with r.t. we all global for you this weekend with our special coverage. of the. country's waging wars. and social spending people. against their government's economic policies sold worldwide action against austerity i. could have you

with us today on our let's get to some other news for you this hour after seven months about the regime demonstrations and over three thousand killed in crackdowns the u.n. has warned syria is heading for a full blown civil war and with rumors of army defectors joining the opposition the gap between the two sides of the conflict appears to be widening and as. reports while people in the capital calling for a dialogue other parts of the country are demanding an end to the rule of president assad. well here in the center of the syrian capital it is very quiet today it's a day off for most people but of course beneath that calmness a call thick in the country goes on between the government and its supporters and the opposition now what it one thing is clear though when we try to approach people here and bring up the issue of the cause they could almost always turns into a heated debate a very emotional discussion depending on the stand that they take who knows what she means when it's in the ice pullman's not all positions we don't know who they are yet syria is under attack for it storms but we will not give up. the opposition

comes down be rational and go into dialogue with the regime i was the government position and be more open minded. but again we are going to mask the opinion we hear most here is that people are asking who is the opposition who is causing this instability and many of them bring up the words armed gangs they think that these are just people who want to destabilize the country of course this is a position that the government had taken from the very beginning of the conflict but it is a different story when you go outside of the capital who went to the city of understand it was a side to five days of fighting between security forces and anti-government protesters and we felt the tension there there were still a lot of armed forces according to of course again the government they said that they were fighting against armed groups who were trying to create trouble for the locals there but according to some activists they are saying that these are not armed groups of these were peaceful protesters as well as army defectors with a strong army defecting defector contingent in all just on it's very difficult to

verify the exactly what happened in the city because people are very hesitant to talk i guess there are still a lot of military the army still in that city a but that is what's happening on the ground it's not very clear it's hard to get the truth on each matter but on the political level though president bashar al assad has said that he will set up a constitutional committee within the next couple of days to debate with the opposition various sides of the opposition. the dialogue should have a program and a timeline we must clearly understand what kind of results we want to achieve now one of the sticking points of the constitutional reforms is article eight which states that the ruling baath party is the leader of the state and the opposition says this no matter even if a multi-party system is introduced without repealing this article it won't change anything but again that depends on the dialogue that both sides are going to have to take and both sides pro and anti governmental sides always say at the end of the

day it's not what is said it's this is series of both sides in doing what they say they will do so it's down to the action in the next few months. heading your way this hour here on our animal rights activists are all fired up over reports that ukraine is preparing to host the euro two thousand and twelve by throwing stray dogs. to the russian who survived one of the country's worst. we have the full story coming your way in just a few. well with the election season just around the corner here in russia dmitri medvedev has addressed his supporters right here in moscow it's all the countries of course of modernization will continue he's preparing to take over as head of the ruling united russia party for parliamentary vote and that was has now

joined by our correspondent. live here in moscow good to see you so you listen to the president's speech what do you make of it. the president made a speech today was. those who support change supports me and the key to this change . is modernization of this informal meeting with. the first. that he was. not a planning to run for a second presidential term so in many ways it was the right time and the right place to finally cross the t.'s and dot the i's and why would a politician those ratings are still so high with voters give up the country's top job. that's a new it doesn't want to underestimate by our own potential the media has not been realized to the full i believe officially that's why i can only frustration there

are millions of names with both the power to me. to the hopes of change show me and those people who believes in the need for our country's modernization our economies modernization our society as much. as feel that i'm responsible for this are changing with my decision to stay. in kenya my work. as in you had up russia's largest a ruling party united russia dmitry medvedev was also talking about the key peelers of the party's new program which it is going to resign before the upcoming parliamentary election the programme for the next five years in state duma and of course the key peeler is modernisation present at today's meeting with journalists and in tupper news among others were given as us to ski journalist and had all the

new media department at the moscow state university and also david young chairman and founder of the software company who are joining me now given a lot has been said about fighting against corruption the vote and the subsidy to modernize a corner me to drive away from dependence on oil and gas how close is this perspective to think this perspective has no d. in the schools it is no and very good deserves a lot of applause from the audience for his efforts to. moving zation into the russian industry but i think that what people have i think the key message that i have picked up from this meeting was the third of regards his new venture into politics as a way to finish what he has been talking about as a way to get things done and this is a good message that we can do great to have it well. i think. as

a base as i said today before i went to this meeting i called two of my friends found herself in the biggest russian. computer companies who build their companies by themselves and i asked do you support them and dividends. in their vacation initiatives and it's a very important think i understood that you must be. all of them actually supported of course they they they say that they would probably do it in some other way or whatever but yes or no yes they support and i think that. today it's very important day we we we shoot to day continue this movement we should a finalize electronic government things and through all this corruption. our problems would much easier to do. to be solved if we will have open open society open for

the press media and and in the very important message i understood from today's meeting that they have support this and we will continue this even. as these initiatives of those present in the room today was a patchwork of joan lists bloggers. representatives of new media as well as representatives of such companies as a. as young dick says school called out what isn't cuomo and between all that is it a fan club in a way. well. russia it's very clear actually russia is a. must. must become a new company must the. story unless become a new country. all previous years russia was famous about where

oil and gas. but that the common thing about to be what you say is these but the idea of through a shelf in the vision a world in a in what you know racial center and how it was so so with you because back in soviet union so would have this chance of an actually very much like toward one of the participants all this meeting set out in mind was a gala rescinds not just a. finally mansion and such an important thing as decentralizing the country decentralizing the country as a key to modernize in it and you also mentioned the parent project for instance how important do you think it is to get away from somebodies birth moscow all the recent polls show that eighty percent of all books are being published. because that's that's a horrible figure that you as a person who works on a diploma for the department of journalism at the moscow state university how crucial do you think it is to move away from the big cities well i think it is

absolutely important but what is really important is not simply moving away because we can all move away somewhere but is this the community change what are what is important i think is that there are new technologies for building modern culture there are new technologies for administration there are new technologies for corporate restructuring and basically what should happen is that this acknowledges once we know them once we are aware of them they should be taken to the regions like mara mara is a person from moscow. he became famous in moscow he's galleries in moscow but he moved to her and there in perm he engineered a real cultural revolution they have more than art museum and he's the director now so it means that we should take expertise from the innovation hubs you know that you know vision hobbies or was a mega ball this innovation is always a place where so many different companies they could have

a can see two shows and media they all collide and new things are getting bored so what is important is that the spirit of this innovation is taken in person and into the regions and their uses distilled croaker and hopefully many will take on his footsteps thank you very much for that insight journalist among us sort of ski and had channeled the episode where a company. here off to the meeting between an event of supporters and russia's president. these are in a culture of a live in moscow thank you. ukraine is cleaning up ready to host next year's euro two thousand and twelve football tournament but that includes the burning of stray dogs in a mobile incinerator with locals claiming in some cases the defenseless animals are burned alive you may find out some images in a report or stopping. the way first president michel platini was all smiles while inspecting cleaves new stadium the ground of the you were twenty twelve football championships final match but a box of

a much smaller size has been delighting the authorities in will ukraine several months ago local t.v. in the. capital reported a purchase over twenty thousand dollar immobile crematorium for destroying biological waste namely the dispensing of dead stray animals. discriminatory among wheels and are now able to cull the large areas including neighboring towns we had many objections but they all come to nothing in our fight against bites from stray dogs and the spread of infection tens of thousands of stray animals roam the streets of ukraine cities in this a chance cologne hundreds of residents are bitten by dogs every year in the towns of. the first shooting at them as dead and then destroy their bodies in the morgue . but in reality it turned into gruesome killings sparking outrage among the animal protection societies. the locals believe that the dogs are still alive but we don't

have any evidence of what poison is used to kill them so we cannot say for sure that the only a few should way regulating the number of these animals is to sterilize rather than to kill them and we will stop demanding this happens in europe it proved efficient over the past few decades stray animals practically disappeared. the animal lovers outcry had a massive response on the internet and online petition was signed by almost two hundred thousand people some of them suggesting you were twenty twelve should not be held in a country that is so cool to its creatures that have been able. to manage to cancel euro two thousand and twelve is not unexpected but as a rule letters from citizens don't work back in two thousand and ten animal defenders addressed officials of mr platini who then as deputy prime minister kalashnikov. to stop this outrage against animals it's been a year and we haven't seen any results so far and it has been a sustained campaign at getting you a force chief to use his influence to stop this cruelty animal rights groups have

been staging small protests against cruelty for three years but the multiplying number of those signing the petition now would alarm europeans food news governing body first there had been strong doubts about ukraine's ability to host the championship some had even suggested it be moved elsewhere now with all the new stadiums in airports springing up but it seems there is no going back even with all the calls to deprive ukraine of the tournament but animal rights activists say they will continue putting pressure on the authorities both. to have their voice heard. see reporting from kiev in ukraine. twenty five minutes past the hour here in the russian capital living through the nightmare of north caucasus terrorism twice russian you suffer the horror of seeing his wife and son both die in the beslan school siege several years later he was badly injured in
