anger against egypt's military rulers gains momentum but the arab league meeting in cairo is both like a stone condemning syria lashing out at the state of deaths on their own doorstep. in northern parts of say nato forces broke their promise by trying to remove all of the barricades and follows a night of violence when warning shots and tear gas were used against protesters. and. around against the radio host in one of america's secret prisons and human rights activists speak up for a man taken there and eventually tortured. there

they are watching our world news twenty four hours a day welcome to the program. a former associate of egypt's ousted president hosni mubarak has reportedly accepted a request from the ruling generals to become prime minister and form a new cabinet comes after the military council apologize for the deaths of more than forty protesters killed in almost a week of this clashes at this artie's honestly reports the unrest shows no sign of letting up. the chant of the tens of thousands behind me is the same that it has been for the past six straight days we once the field-marshal gone people here are screaming the field marshal of course being mocked on a ton trolley the fate of the supreme council of the armed forces the military mates with a full make you different prime minister come our guns only and initial reports are

that guns only has accepted the post of prime minister certainly if it is true his hands will be full with forming a new government before monday's parliamentary elections now guns ari is a popular figure among egyptians people he was the prime minister from ninety six to ninety ninety nine but he is also very closely associated with the mubarak era of course of his prime minister when mubarak was president and for that reason people here will not support his appointment but in addition to that people say it doesn't bring in massive who's going to be the new prime minister and who will make up the new government they want the military to step down and certainly when the roosters first started filtering through a bus in one thousand people here just started chanting louder if they want even a sheet to go now a nother concern at amongst protesters here is what exactly is the kind of tear gas that the security close and all have been using and renounce hearing from egyptian

media that's the same the p.p. mccool seen earlier that the tear gas causes a burning in the lungs of the never and the past with many people here saying that they picked up gas canisters that inspired more than five years ago many people saying that this is a crime against humanity the irony of the situation is that law the arab league was meeting here in cairo the first topic under discussion was the violence that was unfolding around them and the words that people have been using are double standards and up we see the focus of an arab league meeting was what is happening at the moment in syria and they have now given damascus a good nine to risk one thousand. could lead to a proposal to send some five hundred observateur to monitor how the government is dealing with and see government protesters now we have no indication at this stage from damascus how they will respond we have heard from the iraqi foreign minister who says that the mask has moved sponsor t.v. but if he takes only the arab league will need to gain on sunday and then they will

begin the process of voting for sanctions and one neighbor iran has indicated it will not vote positively the signs are that the majority of the arab league foreign ministers in fact will give a nod now these sanctions include things like a ban on the travel of syrian officials saying two things like no more commercial flights to the country a halt to dealings with the central bank and also no more government to government trade the purpose of the sanctions is not to stop the violence that would be impossible but rather to put pressure on the assad regime. but meanwhile a france is pushing for humanitarian corridors to be opened in syria transport medicine and other thoughtful supplies but there is criticism it could be a pretext for intervention an echo of the nato bombing campaign in libya to use it to sell some of the reports. people have thanks to the libyan intervention and french president nicolas sarkozy bad destroying

a first for his country first call for nato to impose a no fly zone over libya. first to officially recognize the opposition as libya's only legitimate government first to strike with libya and now with a rearview mirror syria appears to be the next stop france is once again the first western nation suggests an international ground intervention in syria calling for a quote secured zone to protect civilians and first to endorse the exiled opposition syrian national council plans account through a human thing of ensign's very very popular agreement between most of the left and most of the right about and sarkozy has to save their grandson so it seems to me that these are more even more aggressive than obama would be even though he doesn't have the military strength of the loons and sweeping popularity at home is what circles he needs if he intends to let the french decide his fate as president and get two thousand and twelve elections it's time president nicolas sarkozy talks

about the syrian crisis and he's popular keep those that know he's really really. bad situation when when it comes to the polls he's using certain phrases as a way to. prove to be seen as provocative the way he was with libya but what the french government deems a success doesn't seem to be too promising for those living on the coast of africa era violent clashes between rival militia groups have continued adding to the death toll a new u.n. report says that some seven thousand people are being held in livid tensions sutter's controlled by militias with no access to courts or a functioning judiciary many are still armed scenario some warn it could be repeated in syria and once those regimes are overthrown a pound or a box is opened in other words chaos can be the result while one is always happy to see the end of little dictatorships and my own view is that these the end these

regimes should count them selves critics of france's latest move of race the question of whether any foreign intervention in syria without bloodshed all other countries have taken a slightly more cautious step the french leadership are putting its for play out and plotting its plug out of everyone else french assertion is not entirely welcome by syrians themselves a lot of opponents actually would not welcome. all says or even turkish forces in the regime and against storing it mention for all the gains for get out of intervention in syria even critics wonder if it's really worth it at least no one can argue about who said it first and that's are still your r t brussels richard. some western nations still posting the results of the intervention in libya many are forgetting that in syria the stakes may be much higher that's according to professor lawrence davidson and middle east expert from

west chester university in the u.s. well they're serious about that as catastrophic. to essentially invade syria which is what they were. by the from the air. they're going to bring in potentially the syrian out and syrian allies the right as. i don't think this is a very good idea they haven't thought through. the political that they haven't thought through whom they might get the assad regime for. the intelligence people. but you're in the united states for instance politically this is done without any work but as to what the consequences of this. and as the world watches the arab spring it raged throughout the middle east this great debate to have addressed what

protestors are really after that's the theme of the discussions days cross-talk program that's coming your way at seven thirty am g.m.t. it has a pretty. they don't mean liberalism or freedom of the west away what do you mean is to list to ease the pressure. to leave motivation that but not if they don't understand what most of the season is a little understand what a girl is an easy question with because i completely i completely disagree with that point of view i think egyptians understand exactly what they want i think the airlines democracy they want the rule of law they want. quality they want social justice and they want to feel that their human rights are being respected this is why people went out into the streets on january twenty first and i do not believe in all that egyptians want a religious rule or islamic rule this is not right what egyptians of all political

currents are talking about. escrow. store coming your way soon marty because i'm in service a nato broken agreements with them in trying to tear down one of their roadblocks because of the serbia border it prompted the latest clashes in the north of the breakaway region and despite claims the alliance had earlier promised not to take you know that the action or security forces used tear gas and oil of warning shots as first crowds of protesters remove part of a barricade. takeover of border checkpoints testers defended the road with trucks rolling stones reportedly even twenty one years ago great has condemned natives actions and urged peacekeepers to act according to their mandate but failed to keep that mandate is the root of the problem according to little at least because the message. it's not a problem of whether they should be there and it's not

a problem that they are the ones that are the only legitimate well force which should act upon such situations but the problem is that they are exceeding their limits and they are exceeding their authority nobody wants all night and some very . like nobody has something better to do the problem is that people are really scared there are threats all the time there are incidents. they are there are people getting shot there are all sorts of pressures and there is a great number of people especially from the albanian side and some of their supporters both in both in europe and even in serbia which are constantly threatening with the so-called croatian scenario and that is the worst thing that could happen. to more phone calls on our website dot com the pictures and video of the crash is there also online. brand new weapon of mass destruction that scientists are critics of congress with tension in muncie details until.

now a guantanamo prisoner has been in washington's hands for almost a decade the alleged al qaeda recruiter has not been charged with anything just yet however he claims that crimes were in fact committed against him during his interrogation by the cia there is evidence. from the u.s. in there are no government reports in also from reports of the international committee for the red cross that there was a way that was tortured in the hands of the cia. he was subjected to very cruel treatment for example to mock executions and waterboarding which until of the drunk . he seems to have every reason to hold a grudge against washington but from behind bars abuse of either filed the rather surprising lawsuit against lithuania he claims that in two thousand and five he was held in a secret cia prison in the baltic state only twenty and bears responsibility for

most probably cloture moreover when your authorities do not even deny that there were secret cia facilities on their soil for some reason though they are refusing to comment on the bulls abiders lawsuit mr pollard ski's believes they're simply stale and very new are today accept people who maybe torture them with renia and that is twice as bad as it could be but i think that responsible officials from the united states and m. from. including george w. bush should be brought to international hate for crimes against humanity against prisoners it may take months. the by this lawsuit will bring any results but even at this early stage it has highly explosive potential say experts as it may trigger actions in other european countries but will and macedonia and romania along with lithuania have all been accused of having cia prisons on their territory

a deal it's expected to be russia could cut its price for gas to belarus by half but the risk currently pays around three hundred dollars per thousand cubic meters of gas from russia that price could be cut to as little as one hundred fifty dollars per thousand cubic meters and just put that in context e.u. customers currently paid a market rate of about four hundred dollars per thousand cubic meters so great cut in the price there russia is keen on securing its gas supplies to europe it's currently three main routes for that one is the nord stream pipeline newly created to germany and that carries a small percentage of the gas at the moment pipelines to carry about twenty percent of the gas to europe but the vast majority still flows through ukraine belarus needs this deal it's an economic trouble with rampant inflation and a trade crisis as well it needs to raise money and it will raise two point five

billion dollars from the sale of tranz gas the state owned gas transit company it will sell out to gas from which will own one hundred percent of that company it will also get cheap gas pegged close to the domestic rate for gas in russia in return it may in future regret the sale of tranz gas but for the moment those priorities have been taken a back foot to the need to raise capital for its economic crisis. let's have a look at the markets now commodus first of all is stuck between gains and losses and that says the still concerned about the possible supply shortages france has proposed a european embargo on imports from iran after the international atomic energy agency said the country may still be developing the nuclear weapon with a weak economic picture is weighing on fries grantland is trading at one hundred
