you know the story your media projects. are something. that along is setting up protest camps and sandals is cleared by police after two months of demonstrations hundreds are arrested at the end of protests and. let's look at the picture that you actually to me. of the day there's a little bit of that explosion there with the testers and a media field a strong arm of the law but that doesn't stop some officers sway in support of the occupy movement. diplomatic meltdown britain order is already down boys to leave the country with forty eight hours there now says the closure of iran's embassy in london in response to the ransacking every new case mission and tehran.

another challenge for italy the midst of trying to travel its depth prices and adjust that new prime minister taxpayers are now fighting against what they deem as unnecessary military spending. on the business side see manju fracturing in russia is that a six month news continues into expect more of this into a. one pm in the russian capital you're watching our team in the arena joshie police annele sandals have cleared one of the last to longest standing occupy camps in the u.s. hundreds of officers song and riot gear drove protesters out of the park making three hundred arrests in the process following innovation in order to bring an end to a two month long occupation there over respond get each count has more. nearly

three hundred people were arrested in l.a. on wednesday the police action against the protesters was not as heavy as what we've seen in other cities like oakland in california or new york indifference that is police used tear gas on people rubber bullets sound and pepper spray no this time they just before and the rest no injuries as far as we know but still almost three hundred peaceful protesters arrested those were people who refused to leave the park surrounding the l.a. city hall which they've been occupying for the last eight weeks some demonstrators crime going through trees to avoid addiction police were using cherry pickers to take them off those trees the occupiers in l.a. received an invitation order last week officials for fighting sanitation problems and crossing damages reasons behind eviction order we've seen this happening all across the u.s. under different pretenses authorities have been taking protesters out of their

occupied locations in philadelphia police in riot gear confronted demonstrators arresting around fifty people about fifty people who refused to clear a street over the last two months around five thousand occupy protesters have been arrested across the united states the movement is generally very cool their message was all about nonviolent from the very beginning and from the credit of the occupiers in the l.a. even as widespread arrests were taking place there were lots of emotions involved of course here and we're bogged down here and this for many many years it's a message of the movement to banish together with pelts in those parts the message being against corporate greed against corruption in washington it can all make inequality and excesses of the u.s. i national system. pouring their all these latest arrests in l.a. bring the total across the whole occupy movement to almost five thousand but now

police are starting to defect to the other side i would respond a very important finding out why some people alvin choosing to make history instead of making arrests. occupy wall street has become an undeniable american household name. and police crackdowns against the democratic movement have become something of the norm not so normal is seeing one side endorse the other. retired philadelphia police captain gray lewis became the game changer on nov seventeenth arrested while demonstrating with occupy protesters on the streets of new york city the twenty four year veteran was held in police custody for eleven hours and received one comment from a new york cop nobody talking actually this one individual said that i had the testicles of an elephant although all of america's police force is part of the ninety nine percent captain lewis says cops secretly supporting odell us face

dire consequences by going public call a tremendous fear of losing their job being disciplined being fired and then what do they do everybody in the ninety nine percent has that fear and police officers also they cannot risk they have children they have wives what will they do once you're fired there are no jobs available the nighttime raid on zuccotti park and subsequent arrest of dozens of journalists covering the story are among many reasons captain lewis says he temporarily transplanted to manhattan that's close to a dictatorship when you actually the media. has with dictators around the world and that is very scary brutal scare tactics such as pepper spray tons and flash grenades canisters have been used against occupy camps throughout the u.s. oakland california resembles something of an urban war zone this fall leaving a war vet in critical condition and the eyes of an eighty four year old burning

from tear gas oakland police officer fred shot is the only active cop who's gone on record with his support but totally agree with comparable. even to us that we're talking pro or i am according to ninety nine percent for the most part people are peaceful they want to see changed many believe the biggest change could calm when or if u.s. law enforcement officials stop suppressing the right to assemble and begin supporting it despite his arrest captain lewis is back at zuccotti park showing unwavering support for the occupy movement standing roughly ten or fifteen feet away from him a group of new york city police officers yes they're here securing the area but some are beginning to show a little interest for the first time i had an officer break ranks yesterday the barricade line a white officer named officer murray and introduced himself and if you question i said you know the risk you're taking and he was so brave they said this is still

america and until a supervisor ordered ordered me back to the line i'm going to talk with you i hope to get mainstream america involved the police involved realizing that we're all victims of corporate america and america has got to be stopped. r.t. new york. we're closely following the protests that have been shaking up the united states on our website our teenage daughter it's a gold mine to check out the photo reporting during the massive raid on the all violate protests and get all the way to some place from the site and also on the web site. of the day of the u.k. student still more than two million people in britain down tools in the largest public sector striving thirty years now. ride the royal refurbishment russia's navy will be fit for a plane quite literally as its boats are said to be refit by the same partners our

company tends to her majesty's really needs to be. plug. plug. the u.k. is expelling already in diplomatic following the storming of its embassy in tehran it has ordered the immediate closure of iran's mission and on that britain has already evacuated its own get well maps from the islamic states capital this comes after hundreds of hard line for testers attack compound into iran pelting the gates of windows with pencil bombs burning greatest lads demonstrations following vote in iran's parliament to reduce diplomatic ties with london in retaliation for imposing further sanctions over its nuclear program discussion of new measures against iran are also expected to dominate a meeting of european foreign ministers later today middle east expert and

journalist subconscious believes the slightest spatulas arise chess started they are western campaign. the west is not engaged in war preparations just against iran which they have been they've invaded occupied iran's two neighboring countries of afghanistan and on the one side and iraq on the other the west is engaged in a constant project of claims that war and domination against all people who resist that domination so iran and syria are definitely on the cards and the current configuration will engulf the whole middle east that this has the potential for growing but that is the agenda right now very clearly they want change all across africa libya was the start and look at the pacific and laser region the new the new troops and new u.s. troops already sent for australia and listen to clinton she is saying that the critical places for us to win nation is not iraq and afghanistan but in asia what's emerging right now is

a historic time for the next ten fifteen years where britain and america know they're going down economically and militarily and they know china russia merging so they're really feeling that now is the crisis period to make sure that they can dominate as much as possible through sanctions and war i mean it's all it's all you know it's any means necessary i mean whether they do it through sanctions or war or funding opposition movements it's all the same they want complete domination as soon as possible. no one benefits from having sanctions against iran and the europeans will suffer from them as well and that's the belief of sherrington five from the school of oriental studies at the university of london this science is a think that a very strongly ordinary iranians this is a lose lose situation as many to rein in officials have already stated and then i say lose lose on the one side iranians ordinary officials similar to each other have been suffering for they are. financial system and the oil industry which is

being signed so not at the same time ordinary europeans going to be suffering this is because as we see the venue science and iran's oil industry the price of food is going to rise. u.s. secretary of state hillary clinton is on a landmark visit to myanmar it's the first trip to the country in fifty years by a diplomat of such signori seen as an effort to push for democratic reform there and renew ties with his leadership of the visit follows a decision by president barack obama to open the door to expand its highs with a politically isolated country nine hundred sixty two until earlier this year jamar was under a military rule but is now in a transition to a new civilian government as part of new reforms authorities have released over two hundred political prisoners and used to be used censorship shortly before clinton arrived in the country the chinese vice president held talks with myanmar on

military cooperation. was no cross to talk to dr park now on wang from the chinese university of hong kong thank you very much for being with us in the program sir first off quentin has been here all being cordial talks with president but why is the u.s. secretary of state in the country now what do you read into the timing of this visit. well i think the secretary of the state is physically. of maybe trying to. opportunities to trying to bring you more western capital into the m.r. in the first phrase and number two is trying to do suppose. you could call me. well see the thing is what's interesting there it's the balance of power is there in their region as we know the chinese have been one of the few partner countries of myanmar. last century and only on monday this week the chinese

delegation healthy talks there so what is likely to happen next i mean the countries relations with the chair that could this visit affect say for example could china see the visit of america's top diplomat as a threat to strategic interests in the region. yeah. i think china is seeing the pursuit of korean turns to miramar is the threat now this kind of threat is posing from two angles i think the one china are and what in thailand coalesce and all but mostly trying are first been contra putin more than seventy percent of. direct investment to be a mother and eve the u.s. is able to although not year mark and bring you more western capital into myanmar to. have more opportunities and bargaining power to try to live for the. bruises not be chinese investors in the capital as

a result so the chinese government has been saying it is the visit of. these is over the wall and be the. pretty even more market this is number one tool i think it also will bring in some more uncertainty regarding regional security course china has been importing more than eighty percent of all your food the market district. which is between indonesia in singapore well china has been working with the. lie from the coastal port called. hero to directly to the chinese city of call me. dad priority has been very smooth in the past how over the visit of clinton in the opening of myanmar to the western countries maypole certain is a crude here and certainly on this particular project well he just said earlier

that china sees this visit as a threat and use just explain to us. china myanmar have enjoyed a strong economic relationship there but on the other side the u.s. state department says that americans outreach has nothing to deal with china and should be worried and has everything to deal with now mar what do you personally think about this. well of course i think it is to promote take diplomatically correct fall of the american government and say that how do in my point of view the strengthening ties between the us and the myanmar should be conceived as a larger project of containment of the china sees the america has been doing that in the entire southeast asia region. well beyond mar is known for its poor record on human rights and it has been turned around in the past six months so tell us why you think reforms are happening now after almost fifty years of

isolation from the rest of the world. as a metal although miramar has very. human rights violations but in recent years has been living for a heart to people of a kind of very localized. saw recently we can see a lot toll for political prisoners and also actually. has won the support all the initial support and so on to keep all eyes on some key to run as a member of parliament in the future you lessen as a result i see that these are kind of trying to work on news on their local fire station pathway in order to show the international community that he's trying to draw in the majority did mange political culture right now and from the chinese university thanks very much indeed for sharing your thoughts with us here on r.t.

. thank you very much. and coming your way here in r t tang's time i watch what. you say russians in a story are being deprived of the earth made of language. meet here later before that italy has found itself in a severe economic crisis with the country's debt reaching over two trillion years but at the time when italians want to cut costs and great jobs the government has another plan and it works which critics say is nothing more than economic suicide artists are for explains. this is the bet you find me playing the combine still if i just the little itty bitty push it still in the development stage final assembly line is supposed to be based in italy. everything's going to plan the town of navarre is

a kilometer from the military base where the final stage of the f. thirty five cortex is supposed to take place the people here have taken to the streets they say is a waste of other talents taxpayers' money it is a very expensive project up and now that we are in crisis you know that. is cutting their pensions. school education. public health and so on the joint strike fighter program that is its name is a defense project based on international efforts with the u.s. ek in italy just some of the participants if. it's. true. and that's why it's. such a costly venture it's least decision to purchase one hundred thirty one of these

planes developed by american company located martin said the country backs them thirteen billion euros in the projects come under widescale scrutiny to being a visual and the budgets of the people in the world is slowly extremely expensive but project it wasn't the main issue with all the. world's first of all. a lot of local politicians promised jobs and so people thought well great and then we start to say well you know jobs in what is very expensive a moment of crisis like now to spend money on these planes a moment like this is absolutely ridiculous. it's making people really are very but most of europe now my age in the year is a crisis leslie itself no the teach million euros in debt tax payers hears it it kind of a country participating in military spending they don't want and don't feel they can of food. we say that the now it's the right time to. needed the

expenses and. projects we don't need. we need something else despite the government trying to win the people here over with promises of co-created they remain unconvinced all the project that they call economic suicide to be scrapped there are. some to look at some other stories from around the world and of last in an iraqi town is killed at least seventeen people and wounded official say a car bomb exploded in a street market and early on thursday local authorities and poles and a media curfew and are investigating who was behind the blast terrorist attacks have become more frequent in iraq after the recent announcement that the remaining thirteen thousand u.s. troops are scheduled to pull out of the country by the end of the year. here is government has released nine hundred twelve prisoners involved in the latest

protest the spied a crackdown on anti-government activists continuing nationwide clashes rock province quarterly killed at least thirty people comes a day after turkey suspended our financial credit dealings with damascus it's the latest country to impose sanctions on syria and your own estimates more than thirty five hundred people have died since the protests started in march. the first stage of egypt's parliamentary elections has and it official results are now set for thursday after a large border voter turnout delayed the counting of ballots by one day just lama's group muslim brotherhood which was banned under the government of former president mubarak claims it's leading the way the election will spread across six weeks and final results will be announced early next year. in a move to escape its past is still years making people speak the native language or risk losing their jobs but the law aimed at establishing

a national and he threatens to silence the baltic states large russian minority as artie's others here chefs he found out. a russian speaking fisherman catches a magic fish the promise is to fulfill all his wishes in a stone ian but he does not understand the language and he dumps it is true that this social ad urges the russian minority in a story to learn estonian in a rather amusing fashion the reality is no joke at all. old street officials are obliged to know the estonian language in the course of their work this is written in our language law it also applies to people working in the majority of public services. just like other post soviet baltic states a story has its own language inspection the body which oversees how the language law is being observed at times laying it down quite harshly the language inspection has the legal right to conduct spontaneous checks on anyone working in any spear

and should a person fail this tony language exam the body may then initiate the sacking of this employee human right activists say this has turned the language inspection into a punitive body. it is not that they have nothing to say it's just that they believe their voices are being silenced a story is three hundred thousand strong russian minority has been protesting at what they describe as the language inquisition some of these people either lost their jobs or are under threat of doing so because they are forbidden from speaking their native language soonish the so often cursed so we were never applied any restrictions on languages is done and so we are free to educate in their language nowadays the authorities have almost banned the russian language from schools besides our russian companies don't have qualified teachers who can teach physics chemistry. is the latest twist five workers at an orphanage were fired for not

being able to speak a story into the children that's in a town where ninety six percent of the population are ethnic russians. i don't want to sound rude but as long as we live in this country we have to live by the law and they're fired to those people because they had been warned but did nothing. cumin rights activists acknowledge the rule of the law but stressed that in the language case it is not applied properly the law doesn't put any difference between our we're almost everyone sees russian as their native language and other parts where most of the people speak a story and with such disproportion we can talk of direct language discrimination and indirect ethnic discrimination activists in another baltic states have been gathering signatures and holding a referendum to make russian the second state language and many say they have a strong chance of pushing it through a stone despite being criticised by amnesty international for its language policy

is adamant and it seems the russian minority would not catch the magic fish granting their wish anytime soon. let's see russia r.t. reporting from tallinn in a story here. which will bring in all the latest business news there. thank you mary now russia may get an unexpected bonus from the rising tension between western powers and the run countries benchmark urals blender could surge to a record margin above bread the conflict over iran's nuclear program has already pushed a russian troop to read premium over its north sea counterpart urals blend is widely consumed by european refineries on the mediterranean which are also big importers of the radiant oil a new proposal by france to impose sanctions against oil imports from the islamic republic could mean the market will tighten even for of. the largest steel maker in
