welcome back you're watching our t.v. here's a look at the top stories the body of colonel gadhafi is finally to be laid to rest after days of being on public display but questions about the way he was killed and the future of the country remain with a drivelling mood among some giving way to fear as more bloodshed is to copy. at a wall street protesters promise yet another global rally ahead of the g. twenty summit pressuring world leaders to tax financial transactions and currency trades that's as a growing number of its supporters ignore criticised police for their fears response to demonstrations. and a georgian billionaire is stripped of his citizenship after voicing political ambitions in which he vowed to win next year's parliamentary elections in announcement was preceded by harsh criticism of president saakashvili who he hoped to stop from staying in power. that's the top stories here in our deal next we sit
12:31 am
down with syria's foreign minister to discuss how the government sees the way out of the bloodshed the country's been plunged in since march. the syrian minister of foreign affairs. thank you for joining us. you are actually. the last meeting of foreign ministers of states you carry on the situation in syria the opposition welcomed them do you think the arab league has been constructive rule. unfortunately due to the so-called arab spring some countries that had been playing a significant role in the arab league's operation are now busy with their own domestic issues and this doesn't help consolidated solutions hopefully this
12:32 am
situation will be resolved in the short term and these countries will become official again in consolidating the common arab cause this is first do you think it would be reasonable to discuss a country's columns without its participation. second a proposal was made at this consultative meeting to free syria's membership of the arab league this is very dangerous and most participating countries spoke against this proposal how can one imagine resolving common arabic problems without syria. and thirdly this proposal contradicts the league's charter as the part of the arab states leaders has the power to standard freeze membership idea this power was breached when making a decision on libya and we're all well aware of what happens then what happened the un security council used the arab league's decision will it helping its resolution and then nato used this decision for its purposes. when arabs to speak up with such proposals they understand the purpose of these actions which is to undermine what remains of the common arab cause. well you know as the lord the opposition states
12:33 am
that the syrian leadership has little time left to play man the reforms announcement president bashar assad they're saying to the syrian people are paying with their blood for delays in these reforms why is there such a delaine implements and. they thought on october first of all there is no delay on the contrary a universal reform program underway in syria will be implemented in a record six months compared to other countries including russia where reforms lasted for several years i repeat that this is a record short period of time those who speak about reforms know that certain laws should be passed to see them through the included laws on political parties and parliamentary elections slated for next february there are also elections to local self-government bodies a law on the media should also be passed a commission has been set up to draft the country's new constitution. how fast should these things go these are crucial issues solutions to which will determine
12:34 am
the face of the new syria a pluralistic a democratic country a model example to other nations in the region these hasty action reasonable these are serious problems that require serious approaches based on experience and international law judging from that i would say that the country's leadership is not slowing down reforms and the deadline set by the syrian president are very short in less than six months the country will see these reforms carried out that is why i'm asking if the opposition really cares for the future of this country why it wouldn't begin dialogue and lay out some serious approaches to creating a new syria. as for the bloodshed let me ask you whether there's a regime anywhere in the world whose purpose is to kill its own citizens or rather isn't its direct purpose to protect its own citizens from terrorists we are confronted with arms terrorist groups who have nothing to do with reform these groups are being armed and financed. from abroad every day syrian television
12:35 am
reports new arrests of these groups members which are sowing terror a lot of ject is do they have other than how to earn more money therefore we should differentiate the national opposition which is it favor of political and economic reforms from these armed groups well with can you please tell us what trends these groups who long to and who's giving them direct support who are. according to our information these are al qaeda groups operating from iraq also traditionalist forces and muslim brotherhood units have been discovered these units are financed from two sources by is not organizations in the arab world including the gulf states as well as organizations based in european countries the second source is weapons and drug smugglers. while the body was yellow a. lot of statements are made in the west one after another that is security forces continue to use violence against the protesters we actually saw the security forces
12:36 am
and armored vehicles in the streets of a key towns and their own homes are soon as during our visit to syria where so many troops needed in syria it sounds like homs. to start with the west only pretends it is worried about human rights violations in syria in fact it was the west that imposed economic sanctions that have hit the interests of the syrian population so hard this is an obvious discrepancy within the western approach to syria they have a plan which clearly foresees impairment of the ruling regime in syria followed by its complete overthrow why are they doing this to minimize syria's influence in the region and force it to abandon its independent stance the west seems to think that economic sanctions will help topple our government this is exactly why we should try to prevent this plan from being implemented secondly we have not used tanks for seven months we did use the. very beginning to provide proper protection for our
12:37 am
soldiers who are safe inside of them but no tank has fired on the battlefield so far it is natural that no country would welcome a terrorist group financed and armed from abroad these groups are a threat to citizens security and the work of state institutions and schools yesterday three children were killed in one family there was a baby girl among the victims who was not even seventeen months old is that what they call reforms or is it terror. now you understand why i can openly confirm that we did deploy our security forces in the regions where militants are operating with them now while he was here syrian opposition maintains the president's security council resolution veto was supportive of the syrian government's position marius you say that this stand prevented foreign intervention into serious domestic in france as you know russia proposed a new resolution to the security council which is under consideration now what
12:38 am
further steps can we expect syria to say it should be sneer is aleutian be approved by western powers or. first of all we do not expect the west to approve russia's new resolution secondly vetoing that resolution has created benefits for syria but not only syria it gave us more time to implement reforms russia above all other states requires the syrian government to implement the reforms in question and to maintain a comprehensive dialogue to have we did more than just make use of russia's veto we used to lift external pressures from our reforms process and we agree with russia that any foreign intervention into our domestic affairs is unacceptable just as any attempts to increase economic sanctions against syria since they infringe upon the interests of syrian citizens in the course of our consultations it became clear that russia is even more demanding than other countries in urging syria to complete the forms and to maintain
12:39 am
a comprehensive political dialogue another issue here is that russia is between the proposed resolution gave new life to the security council itself by stripping the usa of its decision making monopoly on the international stage and that's a very important thing and just look at what their monopoly did in libya iraq and afghanistan the truth is that the policy of the united states is trying to implement here in our region is far from unbiased and it's not even our own policy it is a policy that serves israel's interests that's the truth and i worked in the united states for ten years and i know this to be true that i was it will get all over the whole year we have taken steps to litigate the impact of economic sanctions in place against syria where true is russia playing and i will plans to have you made . with and resolve the situation though you will have to work a lot of program the west that is the european union japan and the usa levied economic sanctions against us and that impede our economic development they
12:40 am
expected these sanctions to bring down the ruling regime quite naturally under circumstances such. says syria must rely on its own resources and capabilities i am here by saying that we have enough strategic resources we have over a year's supply of food and basic products to meet the population's demand starting with grain and so on secondly we need to develop economic ties with countries pursuing an independent policy countries which haven't joined this western plan i mean such countries as russia india malaysia and china there are enough states with developed economies and advanced achievements in science and technology and these are the states we shall develop our relations with gus by relying on our own capacities and building cooperation with friendly states we hope to make it through the current situation while it was a year ago it seems that turkey is close to recognizing going to actual council how will syria respond if the states place. i don't want to get ahead of events but
12:41 am
turkey knows the scope of syrian turkish relations we signed fifty intergovernmental agreements followed by growth in trade and cultural exchange the end goal is to establish strategic relations between the two countries we have been working towards this which in practice means that citizens of both countries can visit each other under a visa for the regime hopefully we won't go as far as to destroy the result of all our efforts over the last ten years. and i was the. could we move to a different subject now to damascus suit any preconditions before agreeing to receive palestinian prisoners it's known of the west has been putting pressure on syria for hosting the hamas leadership or did syria lerato any specific conditions before agreeing to receive palestinians released from israeli jails here first and we have to remember that syria has been part of the palestinian issue we handed over the golan heights in attempting to resolve the issue it's impossible to break
12:42 am
12:45 am
public display but questions about the way he was killed and the future of the country remain one of the jubilant mood among some libyans giving way to fears more bloodshed is to calm down. and that will street protesters promise yet another global rally ahead of the g twenty summit aimed at pressuring world leaders to tax financial transactions and currency trades that it has a growing number of its supporters in new york criticized police for their fears response to demonstrations. and georgian billionaire stripped of his citizenship after voicing political ambitions in which he vowed to win next year's parliamentary elections as announcement was preceded by harsh criticism of president august really who he hopes to stop and stay in power. as we have here in r.t. also take a look what's happening in sports enters here. hello
