and the russian markets present their biggest drop on monday but with the with my system there r.t.s. was about two percent at the close of play for markets not in about twenty minutes in business. it is just after seven pm on monday here in moscow and this is with me. welcome to the program a defiant occupy wall street has vowed to fight on against the grip of big business this following a weekend of arrests and scuffles with police all across the u.s. the movement that is now a month old is building wide to spread support on four continents and has raised over three hundred thousand dollars in funds. reports from his birthplace that of new york. well i'm here and see cody park which was the scene of a massive massive turnout of occupy wall street protesters over the weekend it was
11:02 am
just one of the locations where protesters gather the stop and i'm precedented a number of people rallied together to march to times square where they had the birds to. sort of in some memory shine and call it airing with some of the other events that were taking place across the hall part of the occupy wall street movements now we've seen a lot of crowds us than dogs but then why eighteen the new york city police department were out to speak against protesters have a march to times square where the intentions of people that i was a part of this actually just dropped by these barricades and they're calloused for several hours or i mean left right or to get out we saw these officers on horseback nearly drowned all of a number of protesters peace officers on scooters kind of ran over some protesters there was a total of ninety two are rascals part of the occupy wall street gatherings over
11:03 am
this weekend here in new york i witnessed that were all of them in one instance when we were in times square a number of protesters were sitting peacefully they were taken by these lambs violently onto the ground and again to prevent in a way it was on a number of protesters arrested violently while they were fortunate sometimes where we were trying to film what was going on and despite us saying that we are press we're simply here to cover the events they have pushed us back with batons and hands they used the as a high tech strobe lights to lines the cameras that were able to film any. serious visuals of what was actually going on which was unprecedented in my experience here to date meanwhile while these events were happening here i mean for the protests continue to grow across the country here in the united states which are there are several thousand protests that have turned out about one hundred forty. something of them were arrested by the police there is also arrests in denver and other parts
11:04 am
of the strategery all indicative of the fact that the spill went continues to grow how it develops remains to be seen but it will be a great for you here and are. indeed auntie's a loose account of reporting right there were a lot of protesters across the u.s. also voicing their anger at the government for putting corporate couldn't sons above those of citizens they say this point is being missed in much of the country's mainstream media so activists are getting rather creative to have the voices heard and thought he's going to check our reports. thank you it's very discontent lousy. guy and graphic thousands of americans have resorted to banners and t. shirts to get their message across that a frustration with what they see is the government acting on behalf of big corporations rather than the people message which the protesters say their media failed to deliver the media feels like these kinds of events don't deserve coverage sometimes all you get when you do something this is
11:05 am
a photograph and so it's very important for the message to be seen those simple oftentimes handwritten messages that people carry on their chests have often been subject to mockery what is the sign of occupy wall street brother that most of the five of the people that i would talk of what does that mean. it seems the only fault of these people is presented in the american media is that they don't all have a degree in economics and finances and are not able to explain their grievances in professional economies terms various groups emboldened to cheer the end of the greatest system known to man and replace it with what who cares let's nap the protests on wall street are mindless and when you ask people in wall street what they want they don't know the acts that took place over the last thirty years with regards to national debt and debt within the system generally all of these things are very complicated and difficult for the general public to understand and
11:06 am
people in the media and people on wall street like it that way because if you don't understand it then you know you don't get what happened but the american people know that they've gotten hosed they've lost their jobs they've seen them offshore to china they've lost their houses they saw a huge run up in home prices that are collapsed and people are saying you know what i know that i've got screwed by all of this but i don't know how i got screwed but americans who took to the streets are looking to express themselves by need. other than motivational shirts and banners which as graphic as they are hardly convey the full message of the movement the demonstrators are spreading their own paper now called occupy wall street journal which details what they're unhappy with and makes it clear that they're not rooting for one particular party it also works against political machines in their p.r. slick's taking control of the protest message one word to describe these ongoing
11:07 am
protests from the beginning frustration on their hurts on cardboard on the backs of pizza boxes as we've seen people express that frustration that is the movement grows the ways of getting their message across also mature and as people here say this paper is just the beginning i'm going to check our reporting from washington hard to. figure out that you can track the developments in the. on our web site. you can also find more reports from lower manhattan expert opinions and a timeline of the events. growing poverty and other. countries waiting for new. jobs and social spending people are still struggling. against their government's economic policies follow the worldwide action against austerity.
11:08 am
nearly ten minutes past the hour here in the russian capital nato forces have extended the deadline of the ultimatum for the suburbs of northern cause of to remove barricades near the border with. clear the road blocks by early tuesday or forced removal. following the borderline dispute. the clock is ticking for the serbs living in kosovo on tuesday the ultimatum passes for them to remove the barricades they erected on the main roads of the serve dominated north protesting against christian as attempt to set up customs in this area and to prevent costs of and police officers and custom officers and officials from reaching the checkpoints at the northern border with serbia but we haven't seen any sign of the removal work so far the roadblocks are still there where they've been for the last two months and tensions are boiling as people are getting more and more exhausted and aggressive we are now in the city of maturity in kosovo it's
11:09 am
divided into serbian north and the old ben and south the tories bridge over the eva river that you can see behind me where the separation line lies is currently blocked on the serbian side i hope you can see piles of stones and rubble behind me . vehicles coming from the old ban inside cannot pass here the deadline to take away these very case as well as others there are around ten of them erected throughout kosovo was announced by the cost of zero peacekeeping force known as k for all saturday its commander general druce met with the mayors of four northern kosovo towns claiming k. four need these roads as it needs access for its troops in the north it's currently transporting its soldiers and delivering food fuel and water for those of them stationed in the northern part of kosovo by helicopters which is a very expensive means of travel last month some of the barricades. resulted in
11:10 am
violence peacekeepers used rubber bullets and tear gas against the serbs since kosovo unilaterally proclaimed its independence from serbia in two thousand and eight relations between serbs and albanians live in this region have been tough but following this recent. this huge part of the cost of a mostly populated by serbs relations between the two ethnic groups have only deteriorated and deteriorated dramatically the circumstances right now very complicated and what may look peaceful for now could explode at any time. reporting right there well you can always follow maria's twitter twitter feed for the latest developments from cause of oh we're going to look at them right now here on c she's been tweeting about rising anger amongst the barricades over the ongoing deadlock as nato forces prepare to enact their follow our twitter feed for the
11:11 am
updates. on our website or if you don't call me you can give us your thoughts on who's to blame for the conflict on cause of those northern border here's how the numbers stacking up after you've been taking part in dot com over half of you put the blame on washington boosting cause of those independents eighteen percent accuse belgrade of not protecting calls of our serbs smaller now eleven percent say the e.u. can keep things under control and last but not least the seven percent now thinking that pristina allows the persecution of course right now the ballot is on the home page of dot com. next hour we talked to serve us chief negotiator with kosovo he believes that the ethnic specifics of the north of cause of i mean that a special scenario must be implemented to resolve the tension. right now what christina did was a one sided attempt to change the reality on the ground which is against all the
11:12 am
agreements before and it's against security council resolution for forty four it's against mandate if you like seats against six points playing by the bank you move which was supported by the security council so what they did is actually they try to wait make a one sided step so waited they can see its effect on me and now we should accept a six month. old reserves who live here in the north because the north has its own reality it's really specific it's exclusive in many ways so people here are ethnically moderate and they are united in their leaning toward serbia. and you know we did there are differences there are other parts of this we should have a new fresh attempt to resolve the situation in those gates and to find agreement how those gates would look like who will actually have a chance to manage those gates and by what's rules.

and of the interview is in about an hour and twenty minutes here on our take other arab league countries of cold on the syrian government to start negotiations with the countries opposition the group also decided not to suspend syria as a member and follows a promise from president assad to draft a new constitution within four months and allow a multi-party parliament is a key demands of the protesters but it's also. been finding out in damascus for some this just isn't enough. calls for change in the forms seven months. one of those calls is to create a real pluralistic political system since nine hundred seventy two politics was only open to parties that acknowledged the supreme rule of the ruling baath party enjoy this coalition and others for bashar al assad issued a decree passing the multi-party law. for a czar assad aldin this is the moment he has been waiting for a chance at a new voice the syrian politics. realize we're applying to become
11:14 am
a political party so we can be more effective we can influence parliament access and help create laws defend us the new law allows parties that are open to all syrians regardless of ethnicity and religion and are not affiliated with organizations outside of syria but the newly formed internal opposition the national coordination council or n.c.c. will not participate it's not about us not wanting to participate it's about them not being serious about these reforms there's no environment for dialogue the violence must stop political prisoners must be released even though they passed the multi-party law and will draw up a new constitution they do all that under their conditions and in recent deadly clashes in cities like understand and live the president appointed a committee to draft a new constitution within four months one sticking point is article eight which states that the bath party is the leader of the state and society the opposition
11:15 am
argues this undermines the essence of multiple parties you know some some people in the in the party leadership have come to the conclusion that article eight and more dangerous articles in the constitution that articulate are going to be under review we shall have almost a new constitution where the new multi-party system will be achieved without any difficulties perhaps change is coming to syria but it's true. protests and violent clashes have been dragging on for months some that they will not stop until bush on the side steps down so is it simply too little too late. meetings like this happen on a daily basis from those in the national development party they are in the final stages of the out with the process of becoming an official party here in syria well after a decade of listening to promises of reform they now feel that this could be real let me set the thing for us are still you are to damascus syria.

11:19 am
international mediation is finally taking its lead from the united states and the united states is taking its lead from from pre-election public opinion which is very anti palestinian anti muslim very pro israel because israel is against stands against the same enemy that america has and so america is beholden to this exaggeratedly pro israel and the palestinian attitude and we're america goes the quartet goes so international mediation at least until the election in america is pointless and it can't help. but to think that israel can solve the problem with out international mediation is also impossible but it's to lieberman's liking because lieberman does not want to solve the problem he doesn't want any interference he wants to go on with the occupation as it is. a historical person a swap between israel and hamas is now facing scrutiny the israeli high court is to
