while they're running suits has nothing to hide calling the i.a.e.a. findings politicized. while the un human rights chief says syria is very close to becoming like libya where an uprising against a longstanding leader turned into a civil war more than three thousand people are reported to have died in the anti-government protests that started eight months ago so our team spoke to the country's deputy foreign ministry about the ongoing crisis. facts about mc that syria's deputy foreign minister thank you very much for being with us today sir happy to be with you now according to human u.n. human rights reports over three thousand people have been killed in syria ever

since a protest started in march for how long will see me a coupon losing its people. i think the question should be the open. the question should be what's happening in syria. of course the credibility of some international number governmental organizations have been lost because they don't take into consideration what's really happening no one of these organizations has said that syria has lost more than one thousand one hundred fifty multi-use from the army and the secret to fix do you think i mean this is the correct approach absolutely not. yes many civilians were killed assess in ated but people have to ask the question who killed them and why they were killed the criminals our security forces were able to detain. themselves

admitted that they were killing demonstrators in syria to keep the pace of demonstrations going on not only that but some of those criminals said they were killing people to keep for example the illegal building of houses in certain areas because they cannot violate the law if the demo stations were not there so these are the cases however we believe the killing of a single pierce is too much he believes that life of one person is already crucial and this question is they still keep taking place and could just say that syria is at a state of the civil war no. i mean those who are provoking these developments want syria to go through a civil war and you know the complexity of the syrian population. is so deep because this is the history of syria we have something from everything. we

have the three monotheistic religions within the each religion we have all the denominations so those who are behind these developments want really to lead the country into a civil particularly when we correctly define those forces behind the developments that are going on i'll tell you those are religious extremists sell if it's drug traffickers. smugglers they have real provided with up to date technology of communication. by the will nor the forces from outside syria and financing of terrorism and terrorist action has taken place so much billions of dollars were smuggled into syria to encourage people to disturb the peace in the country and not to mention the tens of thousands of weapons that have been also

smuggled the into the country from terre kitty from lebanon from iraq and all neighboring countries can you really say that the whole opposition is made of pure islamists and there are no civilians who are just fighting for a better life absolutely not this is my answer because we have a position from inside the country syria the syrian leadership recognized that there is a position and we have to take into account the views of the opposition and to work together with this opposition to build the new syria your government is actually maintaining tallow with the opposition you've actually filled some of their demands as well but. you cannot just disregard that the uprisings is in syria are taking place on a backdrop of numerous uprisings and revolutions that took place in the arab world and no one ever thought barracks regime would be put down no one ever saw an alley

would be ousted. no one ever thought anyone could touch gaddafi. he cannot just think that syria is a completely different story when these events are taking place at the same time do you think something like this could happen in syria of course we recognize mistakes and we recognize the fact that the reform process. did not start. as it was expected to start these are realities we have to. accept what we do not expect is the fact that things develop in such a way in such a violent way and in a way that contradicts with the spirit of the syrian people social media has played a crucial role in egypt how is that affecting syria it also mean played a big role we have confiscated i mean and the cars of many diplomatic missions

in syria a lot of these i mean mobilize and so on yes the social media was used. it seems to me it was used in a negative way but. the government did not impose any restrictions on the and the instructions of president i said on the use of social media i also that the conflict between the ruling allo eats and the sunni majority has lingered on for decades do you think that make lect has in some way contributed to the uprisings in the conflict this is a very dangerous question in syria we don't think of minorities and majorities this is this is a recipe for the disintegration of the country we don't speak certain. in syria everybody has the right to be a president in syria everybody has the right to be a prime minister you know throughout our history the first prime minister was.

christian orthodox. what's wrong with that. and none of they are trying to mislead the syrian people to mislead the international public opinion to speak about certain issues which meant objectivity is to divide the syrian people and this is where we differ from egypt and the from others in syria we have a political system that defends the sovereignty of the country and in syria we are under such an attack because we say no to the policies of the united states in the region supporting subjugation of the region into their interest and serving the major interests of israel can we talk a little bit about nato because you know how nato is very cynical when it comes to the choice of interfering in one country or another why do you think it's not touching syria or not. i mean for the time being they cannot touch syria i mean

if they knew that i mean going to syria is easy. they will do what we think they cannot because the entire region is against this in libya when they are to interfere under the pretext of human rights protecting the needy and people i think even if gadhafi lives hundred years more he will not kill a small number of the people nato has killed more than fifty thousand people killed by innit. i think those who committed this crime should go to international courts when they need to implement that was aleutian. seventy three the way they did it in a criminal way russia said no china said no the majority of security council members said no russia is only working in the interests of syria we believe russia

is working also in the interests of world peace and security and in the interest of russian interests and russia as a peaceful power as a great power that wants to maintain peace and security in the entire world if they manipulate the situation in the middle east they will do it everywhere in the world . but has become very. the issue in libya is an issue of all. those countries are rushing now to divide the. gains of the war among themselves to excellence it from what it seems from the outside also. the events are taking place in your country are affected by outside players for instance turkey turkey wants to be a leading power in for the sunni's in the region and we know that sunnis form the core of the opposition in syria also we know that turkey provides support for the oppositional syrian national council i was seeing double standards here can turkey

use this whole thing to its advantage i'm taking your question i'm not taking very well it if the turkish government would pursue its policies in the imperial way according to the autumn months systems then the commit a big mistake for turkey for the position of terror in the entire region. who told them they are i mean the custom audience of sudanese in the entire world nobody has the right to interfere and that whatever so pretext including turkey if they want to interfere and disguise because this is a big mistake it's not just turkey the syrian t.v. has aired an interview with a captured terrorist who admitted to receiving aid from saudi arabia and jordan why would this countries want cathy in the region here you have touch of the very sensitive issue the financing of terrorism. and until

now at least we don't say officially that i mean the saudi government or the jordanian government or the lebanese government or the government are financing these groups tourist to us but we believe money is coming from these comes from a number of fishes. it's our appeal to our brothers and sisters in all these countries is not to allow that because under the united nations this is called financing of terrorism they are sending money to consider this and i believe this should be stopped since the clashes are still taking place and the protests are still going on what do you percy for the near future in syria what's going to happen of course you are right when you said there are still some clashes between those terrorist elements and the police and security forces we hope they

stop because as i said the killing of a single syrian is a big tragedy. now you will ask me ok what's the we are the we are very forms prison that assad has put on the table a comprehensive a plan of reforms so the whole process is a matter of three four months and then the new syria will emerge thank you very much your excellency when they say to you thank you. well to british soil some time to look for. markets why not. come to. find out what's really happening to the global economy

in beijing but their straight in isn't fretting so much physically if you want to do something it's easy enough to get fit. and be you know in shape to be able to do it i think you know then. and being able to get in that shape to get the feeling back this is the next most difficult thing and then you know getting your head around this whole concept of rice and also you know kind of the emotional attachment that you had to what you used to so you know all of those things combined. let's finish up on the where we continue our profile on clubs from the europe's strongest hockey league they came and shell it's been a baptism of fire for new boys paul pratt so far but as robert ardler young reports the slovak side are as fired up as their it seems song to prove they belong.

shelmon. yes i feel. he said to me age see love like they're a clap anthem the pride of slow guys hockey all rocking and rolling with the best in europe strongest leads the team which are based in a small city of call for a joint b.k. chill this isn't formally a club from across the border left to move to slim oculus year as a check on his whole gasol cieszyn wouldn't allow them to do in the kitchen on the lines haven't had the best of starts claiming just that one wins out of twenty two games. one of the probable reasons for that being that not only their opponents but their routine themselves have had to get used to a new home depot for the arena the smallest ice rink in the league to do just that

the it's still more comfortable for us to play on big rinks like in russia just three of all players used to the small rink we have here the others have to adapt to our home arena as soon as they do we'll hopefully start winning will. win or not there is no lack of support here as the stadium is always packed out with fans passionately supporting their new idols they have like almost sold out every game. straight for the fans they are right for the. all the slovakian people at my front for the check people down by a lot of people from czech republic and. they come and say i have loved these the nazis the players only surveil bill for advice the slow expand chances in the n.h.l. and play a couple of years was immersed in the kitchen work to be much better. played played with the offensive against against a russian team will sound like he did with bob play and may have so many men on the

sun also you have to be saying yes to skate skate skate they don't stay in because you don't skate you take the king penalty and stuff like that other starmen in rugby muhlach squad include martin and kept. both players knew exactly what it takes to compete at the top level. yes we have a lot of young players like experience although it does not mean we're weak team we've lost a lot of points that we could have secured but i believe we still have what it takes to make the playoffs but take simon we have to build our club we have to get maybe a few new players you know at the level that they played before you know the cage fellas so they can you know add a little more experience or club and help the young kids to you know adapt to this level and i think like i said if we're going to be patient i think we're going to see you see some good things coming out of the pool for the lines maybe still far

from being indomitable there is no denying horrible hundred is just the match winning why it's needed now robert ford in their own party blueprint slovakia. and i'll be back with another update in a couple of hours from now however our youtube channel at our sport is is available to you at any time such a kid out and marina will be back shortly with his. science technology innovation to tell the least a melanin still around russia we've got those huge you're covered.
