hello it's nine pm monday night here in moscow my name's kevin owen you're watching t.v. in our top story egyptians are voting in the first step of a long parliamentary election which will happen in stages until march it follows a week of violence which returned to the cities with over forty people killed in protest against the military regime that he's innocent as the latest from cairo. this is just the first round of these parliamentary elections in fact you don't actually have a parliament set up if the vote is considered valid until march sometime and then the presidential elections only happening in twenty thirteen with that said the atmosphere is tense it's very festive at the same time a lot of people voting for the first time in their lives from young to old release there is excitement about this this vote some people see it as the first step in egypt's road to so-called democracy but no people have forgotten what we saw unfold

here over the past couple of weeks the very vicious clampdown and clashes that we saw and calls for the military rule to resign just ahead of elections but what's concerning the people first stop of course is the security situation just this morning we saw a blast this is something that has happened several times since through evolution a part of a pipeline that carries gas from egypt to israel to the security situation very tense although it has to be said that so far there has been no kind of. unsecure situations throughout the day so far another concern of course is lou didn't see of the vote people here say that scaf is very much in control and in fact some people that we've spoken to are either going to boycott the vote or going to vote to make sure they highlight what they see as fraud during this first polls with. some adoptions are bracing for the worst medics are lined up and security is tight

for egypt's first parliamentary election since the revolution the country's only female candidate for the presidency expects the vote to be void due to from want but sent this message to the supreme council of the armed forces or scaffold took over after mubarak we are as. movement. we are rooting you we. are monitoring the election just to connect the. mistakes and their frogs we had and now we know waiting for democracy others are planning to boycott the ballot minya a protester at occupy cabinet says they are encouraging people not to vote trying to do we're trying to call the people to come down here so we would be a lot of people nobody would vote and then they would know that these votes and this elections is not correct it's wrong how could you ask us to vote for a parliament which which you are building under you were in the scouts. the violent

crackdown that swept over egypt just before elections seems to be pulling focus from the long awaited dream of democracy minya says if the vote goes through the military will succeed in covering up the blood spilled. like take them to court or something like for the people the killed i got shot in my yard like here but of course it's not that big of deal like other people don't know they are blind and none of them are did because of what happened who is going to say when you were wrong the party likely to win a staunch number of seats is the muslim brotherhood considered a terrorist affiliated organization in some countries appears very popular here in egypt known for tight organization and a hard islamist line also accused by some of wheeling and dealing with the military supreme council they are politicians and the man who is from the one

in that it when you hear this and this is not for that when you show me this poll the power of power that the people on terror clear have been fighting for on the streets to where you square people would love to have a strong presentation in the parliament. so i urge everybody who was was going to miss the election please don't do that but what egypt wants and want. egypt gets so far proven to be two very different results many egyptians feel the political party is on the ballot don't resent the people and even more so their revolution one of the most common things you hear on top gear is that the people running the country are no different from mubarak and their part to be very much running this vote reporting from cairo and he's there now a party. well in true cross-talk fashion the gloves are off into. people of

grills his guests over the western role in the arab spring. we saw a year ago almost the turmoil in egypt which is now returning no democracy there obviously the americans or the west are waiting for a western friendly government to be imposed and this of course up to the israeli situation so that the the border with gaza is controlled by the west and by israel the previous speaker was talking about the lack of democracy that been prizing in egypt and have been clamped down there was no democracy there and these developments are part of the process and i believe that it is an inexorable process in which ultimately the arab peoples will achieve the democracy that they aspire to everyone should have the right to democracy except for the palestinians and the people of bahrain ok because these are national security issues of the united states of america.

syria's no other country feeling that its decisions are big made from outside e.u. governments have agreed to widen financial sanctions of the regime including more freezing and trade bans the measures of part of the international pressure to punish the government for failing to when the violence of foreign observers in the earlier the arab league also imposed on president is sanctions against damascus syria lambasted the move as a betrayal saying it'll encourage armed and. government forces in the country bit later in the program we're hoping to get some light coming from both to see but are these not on the line at the moment we hope to catch up with you most shortly from jordan. in fact he might be on the line now let's just check if he is don't know indeed i'm told we lost him for now let's try it was a little bit later now as we've been reporting damascus has been hit by fresh sanctions from the arab league has been another blow awaiting the country's u.s. president who seemingly does washington distrust showed additional measures against

syria concerns over iran's nuclear program also on the table with the european oil the likely response is going to shoot you can reports next on why the two countries are called in the crosses right now. splitting the spoils of war in the middle east and north africa the u.s. and europe are meeting in washington searching for new ways to fortify their global position now with syria and iran on their plate here at the white house european leaders together with the u.s. president might be trying to turn political tensions around syria and iran into economic gain after all the decision on whether or not to meddle in a foreign country is the bears these never entirely selfless looking at the ranch for example a country with bass natural resources it's not hard to see the benefits in such a venture iran is the world's third largest oil exporter it's seconding gas reserves the u.s. is not getting any of iranian oil europe on the other hand it counts for

a significant part of iran's crude exports if you are energy problem. there are a huge net importer. in europe has recently stopped buying oil from syria it might stop buying crude from iran as well if the e.u. decides to impose an oil ban on the rare but analysts say it's not full long that the west would want to deprive themselves of middle eastern oil that would mean more oil more gas lower price of oil lower price of gas more steady supply. why. how to make it happen typically what we'd like to do is. population so you cannot make sure that they will seek to change the regime the second way is to isolate the. country from its neighbors to the point where you can say we without too many complications go in and simply attack iran and destroy the regime through destroying the country which the u.s. and the e.u.

are trying to press iran's biggest trade partner china to do less business with tehran the u.s. is now calling on pakistan to stop building a gas pipeline with iran isolation seems to be the strategy change the end game the benefits could be enormous. check on our team washington d.c. . pakistan is intensifying its rage against nato its no permanent closing the alliances key military supply route for its troops in afghanistan the already strained relationship was said to defray fall after a u.s. airstrike targeted a known army base kid killed twenty four pakistani soldiers close to the border lives massive rallies throughout the country elevating anti american sentiment to new levels as cable perspective on how the situation might develop from now on talk to former cia officer philip giraldi for that good evening thanks but on the program it was such a crucial mistake the strikes described as lasting for two hours and it continued

after pakistani commanders pleaded with nato to stop it's being reported how could this have happened indeed how could it be described as a mistake. well nato for its part is claiming that its forces were fired on and afghan forces were fired on from the pakistani side of the border so there are two sides to this issue but i think that in weighing up all the media coverage that we've seen up to now it's pretty clear that this was a massive huge enormous mistake because this has unleashed forces inside pakistan that that people certainly in nato would have wished to keep and we will talk about . his reputation just a second but let's look at the immediate ramifications now because done saying it's going to permanently shut down that supply route to afghanistan how will that affect nato operations indeed tennis is it go now that that's happened.

well it has other alternatives through central asia and supplying by air which are more expensive than a lot slower or not as direct a line as far as coming from the port of karachi and currently i believe something like a third to a half of all supplies that go to the nato forces go through pakistan so this is going to have a major impact there's no question about it but i think there are other serious issues too in terms of political ramifications for what might occur inside pakistan do you think any bridges can be built up to this. well the government of zardari itself and the military both have very compelling reasons to keep a good relationship or at least a functional relationship with nato and with the united states that translates basically to a massive amount of aid that goes in every year and it also includes a lot of up to date or modern military equipment that the pakistani military wants

so there are good reasons for the relationship to to to settle in at a new point of stability but nevertheless the popular rage on this is something very important to consider yeah i guess it's completely the father of the west and fell over that isn't it yes it has the i think that the people in nato and also the pakistani government should be looking to the arab spring to see examples of where at a certain point no matter how powerful the government is and they armed forces the people will have a say we're also hearing. reports of these now paying taliban insurgents hundred fifty dollars a month if they join a program and stop fighting i was not going to. this is kind of like a drug avoidance program where you pay people to stop taking drugs i mean it's going to work as long as the people are getting the money and as long as they feel they can game the system but at a certain point these people whatever their loyalties are there lord please not

necessarily going to be to the afghan government or to nato ok thanks your source former cia officer philip giraldi on the line much appreciated. this is our taste still to come the adventures of ukrainian feminist sidney europe. we meet the scandalous activists who believe revealing their bodies will expose the sins of politicians and. governments and companies around the world are preparing for a possible disintegration of the euro you know business bulletin we examined why at double dip recession and the eurozone now seems all but inevitable. the russian lawyer who died in custody may have been killed because of police torture the presidential human rights council has been looking into the high profile two thousand and nine death of sergei magnitsky who is being held on suspicion of corruption and a pretrial detention center more on this now from marty's peter all of a high there's no what's the council basing its suggestion on bring us up to speed

if you like want of a better phrase central forecast is not the midpoint of a range there is a chance that things could turn out a bit better than expected but there's also a very great chance that they could turn out a whole lot worse to use the jargon of the economics profession as an asymmetry downside skew so it could actually get a lot worse in there even say. the former head of the european bank for reconstruction and development zark at sallie predicts that the euro may not survive until christmas governments and companies around the world are preparing for what could happen you have to cut the story if the currency disintegrates let him in or over one coughs get north capital believes oil firms in russia would need government help to survive if they were to fall. we strive to survive by hiking with the ministry. at the pump stations obviously after the station number two there will encounter the anger from the government
