right now is they feel that their movement is purse or veering they feel that they are moving forward you know victorious kind of a way now that the occupy movement has gone global thousands of people have been in and around lower manhattan are showing their support for the occupy movement or taking part in it all day a lot of the thousands as i mentioned in the park. there were hundreds that went to chase bank or earlier in the day to withdraw their money and close their accounts hundreds if not a thousand of gathered in another area of. washington square park to also have go the sentiments that have been boys voiced by the optimists of the occupy wall street movement we've received reports that at least twenty people that went into the city thanks to close their accounts were arrested by plainclothes police officers inside the city today because i've been speaking to all those that have

come out onto the streets today to voice their anger their frustration with the way that the u.s. system is run here is a little bit of what they had to say. on her trip and anybody here in congress trade or they do very congress is good and pay for special interests the ones who controls the government vision want to write legislation right now corporations are kind of running the government by funding political campaigns and as politicians get into office and of course they're going to do what's in the corporations best interest because that's who is funding them and that's who's giving the money and the people are kind of left in the dots people aren't getting which. people are still struggling. they work overtime and yet there's people who can't even. work. these are the sentiments that. the occupy movement for four weeks now but in the

next few hours we are expecting to see thousands gather in times square that is where they are. focusing also on the amount of money the u.s. has spent overseas. the decisions that are made when it comes to u.s. foreign policy of the decisions these activists say are the wrong ones the ones that they say are leading the country. they believe. in the best interests of all americans. in new york. is in madrid the capital of a country which has europe's worst unemployment rate with over forty percent of young people other things.

well people are showing absolutely no sign of tiredness or so i was a couple thousand camped out here in the central square of madrid and put it in seoul and here is it as we have said before it looks like our compound wall street movement has inspired thousands of people across the globe well there are some who believe that it all started right here in madrid in the middle of may one thousand the people have gathered to protest against the government's austerity measures because as you may have heard state is going through some incredibly hard financial times and they have been protesting for the last several months on and off and that we have camped out here in the square for sarah for a month and a house just the summer and these people here believe that they're actually making a change in their voices are being heard let's hear it well let's have a listen to what those activists from the fifteen m. movement had to say about their cause. was abandoned i mean of course to do usually isn't punishing is changes take time. to understand that coming in and one

change and how much in n.y.c. is something that i thought has been transported. out of string then the spanish side of the american auto you know wolf recently which. may look like quite a have to goal for these people here but you have to understand for them it's not just a matter of corporate domination for them it's matter literally of surviving a lot of them have invested money and time into education we're talking about people who are trying to forge a thirty five years old they're basically the big big are the people who should be moving forward but they cannot afford not just or they can't get a job and therefore they cannot afford to get homes that are four to start families so for them really it's a very significant issue so they are determined to make their voices heard and of course there are their concerns are being noisy. all over europe and our team has correspondents in other cities as well let's get now the latest from our

correspondent daniel bushell and ivor better score in brussels and lawns and they will bring us the latest on what's happening in european countries. crowds that despite the cold is getting bigger and it's getting angry and shouting slogans against the banks and the governments which keep restoring them with public money also she's first tried to ban this grouping saying there was no running water for them which many stores excuse to stop the getting together but they have finally given in to the weight of numbers and they now plan the whole noids alternative cold war will they calling which is full the people in the interests of the people and not the financial elites know the latest scandal is a big big sea of one of bill james largest lenders which has been bailed out just now by the government to the chuen estimated over costing five thousand euros per taxpayer along saw it the c.e.o. of that bank being promised for last year

a produce of six hundred thousand euros in practice for practically leading the bank to the brink of collapse no the people have also been shocked by the e.u.'s reaction when it was almost about the significance of the protest a spokesperson for the european commission just also what does it mean to us. the e.u. employment commission adjust the protests protests to should go to frankfurt instead of brussels frankfurt being the home of the european central bank central to this euro crisis at the moment it's a national movement people are coming here from all across europe people have actually mulched for months by food for example from the likes of spain to get here seen drossos really as the hosts of the e.u. and the problem here. for the large part the protests today have been very peaceful but the atmosphere here is just suddenly lost the moment got a lot more tense that's because the police which are in still in vast numbers here and you can see the line of police vans behind me the protesters together behind

there the police have been trying to disperse the last few remaining hundred hardcore protesters from the steps in front of the cathedral they say they're trying to disperse and peacefully they set up a cordon around them they're not letting anyone into that cordon but they wanted people to leave but they said as they started to disperse those people on the on the pavement the protesters they didn't want to move they say they have a right to remain on the on the sidewalk and to carry out their protest peacefully . when they didn't move the. actions did escalate there was a lot of pushing and shoving arrests were made i think and see some of those pictures now a lot of shouting police brought out dogs as well and and as the crowd chanted shame on you to the police and the temp of the atmosphere got a lot a lot more tense now not quite sure is going to happen now because the what the police come to do is disperse these protests because they say this is private property and i have no right to remain here and as for the protesters earlier today

there were reports of almost three thousand people being present there certainly well over a thousand talking to them in terms of an ache an end goal is they're kind of passing a little bit disorganized but talking to these you realize that's not really the point the point of why they're here today is is because it's just to register their anger nass really was galvanizing all of the anger that their money taxpayers' money is continuing to be spent on bailing out banks that are angry that the people in charge of those banks are still getting bonuses and they see that as the architects of the economic disaster as it is being rewarded and also just generally angry at the way the country's being run and the phrases being continuously used today in terms of a slogan for today's action is we are the ninety nine percent they say they are there they make up the vast me. georgia this country where they have no control of how the country's being run today they say this is their chance to strike back and this is what some of them had to say ok we're sleeping operators coats and sleeping

bags so who knows although i can secure food that has the longest days possible the slogan the breakdown on wall street we are the ninety nine percent oppose in britain as well because we know that the bankers and the bosses are getting bailed out by the government and we are being forced to pay the price without. speaking to the will is really mazing that you can really get a sense that they think they are really beginning to have a say here and they something will really change to the reading in the heels of people with those tents they're setting up camp here they're aware they might not be able to spend the night here but they prepared to go somewhere else because they really think this is the start of something they could change something similar to the old high wall street as if heard from arena for no new york and have repaired it stay for as long as it takes until they have their voice heard. in london and earlier i spoke with an expert tell me he's

a sociology professor in brooklyn college in new york and he's also taken part in the demonstrations and says the protesters are becoming more coordinated. but i think we have to think about this as a movement rather than a particular action or a particular organization and i think we are seeing some more specific demands come out of the two killer actions here in new york city this week there were some specific demands booked for by some of the demonstrations including continuing attacks on millionaires and i think in many ways the u.s. is kind of late to the game we've seen these demonstrations against austerity against corruption against concentrated economic and political power around the world and so what's important is not so much the specific demands with the fact that here is a now a connected include ordinated global movement that's calling attention to what i think is pretty transparent everyone which is corrupt relationship between economic and political elites around the world. so as the ok pile movement goes global let's

try and track what's going on and where people in almost one hundred countries from asia and the americas to africa and europe are united in protests dozens were injured in rome as italian police used tear gas and water cannons to disperse crowds recess to smash windows torched cars and held bottles of the demo against corporate greed and a sturdy measures turned violent defense ministry building was also set the blaze pinza smoke was seen billowing of the coliseum and other parts of the city center police clashed with protesters out of a try to break through security barriers surrounding the parliament a pool senses away as police try to restore order crowds in athens raised against the bankers finances and politicians they accuse of ruining their economy and condemning millions to poverty and hardship protest is also taking to the streets of tokyo crying think business and income inequality is what is directing their anger at nuclear power companies taiwan's capital taipei also played host to an

occupy movement anybody outside the city's financial turmoil which they view as the symbol of corporate excess. the echoes of this global movement of also have been heard in the middle east the nazis pull a smear is in israel and witnessed the demonstrations in front of it. hundreds of people also gathering here in tel aviv women younger faces are familiar as the organizers of the social protest movement that has been taking place across this country for several months now have given a full weight and backing to this global movement in fact as you can see there hundreds of people here they've mobilized themselves and once again on line at the moment they are holding small discussion groups talking about issues such as tackling poverty been part of this international movement when you talk to people here they say that while it's a pity that they're not really actively participating in these wall street protests they certainly support them and the protests and the demonstrations here in israel will continue to grow and tell the government meets their demands i think that we

need to continue and have some demonstration israel big events like this one or a smaller event but we need to keep in the mind of the people to know that we still don't have any solution we still don't have anything from the government that's a specific and proper solution for the situation we we are only into it but so can occupy wall street here in israel has been translated into occupied what's child boulevard boulevard been a street with for nearly three months protesters pitch tents in defiance against this country's socio economic policies earlier this month those tents did come down after an extended court battle between a television municipality and the demonstrators society here in israel we witnessing people very much part of this global movement you need to remember that the last few months have seen the largest demonstrations in this country's sixty three year old history with nearly a million people taking to the streets policy r.t. television. correspondents will be keeping you updated all the developments from

the occupied together rallies in europe and the u.s. as they happen and we can stay with r.t. for our special coverage. to other news this hour after seven months of the regime demonstrations and over three thousand killed in crackdowns the u.n. has warned that syria is heading for a full blown civil war and with rumors of army defectors joining your position the go between the two sides in the conflict appears to be widening. reports well people in the capital according to do a lot of other parts of the country at the 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 the coffin 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 cost they can almost always turns into a heated debate a very emotional discussion depending on the standard they take all of those she meets i see their appointments not all positions we don't know who they are yet

syria's undershirt through storms but we will not give up in the in the huddle close the opposition calms down be rational. dialogue with the regime i was the government position and be more open minded. again we are in damascus 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 we went to the city of understand it was a site of 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 that according to some activists so they are saying that these are not armed groups that 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 these the exactly what happened in the city because people are very hesitant to talk again there is still a lot of military the army still in that city a bit that is what's happening on the ground it's very clear it's hard to get the truth on each matter but on a 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 the size of the opposition. constitutional reform. the dialogue should have a program and a timeline we must clearly understand what kind of results we want to achieve by one of the sticking points of the constitutional reform is article eight which states that the ruling baath party is the leader of the state and the opposition says that this no matter even if a multi-party system is introduced without repealing this article it won't change anything but again on the dialogue that all sides are going to have to take in full

size role and see the government's assize always say at the end of the day it's not what is said it's this is sara lee both sides in doing what they say it will do so it's down to the action in the next few months. just recently. present dmitri medvedev has addressed his supporters telling them russia's course of modernization will continue as a parent to take over as head of the ruling united russia party for december's parliamentary elections. in the sudan. but this meeting could be described as an informal gathering of the president with what he describes as his supporters and those ranged from musicians and bloggers to the hads of such companies as call cribber representatives from oil and gas companies those who support change supports me this was the key message of the president and the change according to dmitry medvedev is modernisation these informal meeting with journalists and interpret nurse was actually the first half to admit from a bed if announced at the united russia party congress that he would not be running

for a second presidential term so in a way it was deemed place and the time to cross the t.'s and dot the i's so why would a politician whose popularity ratings with the voters are still so high give up the country stopped short. and said. i don't want to underestimate my own potential which is not usually been realized to the full actually i can frustrate a bunch of millions of people who grew up in japan or voted for me who pinned their hopes and dreams as well as those people who believed in the need for our country's modernization our economies modernization and our society's problems ation i feel that i'm responsible for it and i've taken a decision to stay in politics to continue my work and the winning party strategical on with me from the ballot as its new leader aims to show that the country would want to reduce its direct presence in quantum e would want to would use. state. and promote independent professionals
