what are you going to live from moscow am in the russian capital i'm marina josh welcome the arab league has renewed calls for the syrian government and bloodshed and allow more observers in the country but the group monitoring the implementation of a peace plan stopped short of asking the un for help they arab league mission itself has been have only criticized for failing to stop the violence and as artists are further reports many in the country say they're paying to higher price for change. a new year but no resolution here despite the presence in the country of arab league observers and ten months of bloody clashes the violence in syria continues to escalate out of and that's what's our phone what's our people's fault it's a send that our children are dying it's a sense they are just ordinary people we simply want to have the man seen here his life took his a battling to save as a soldier. the he dies he's just twenty five years old.

his family left to mourn him and this is just one man one family because syria at the moment there are many more people experiencing exactly the same thing as the country edges ever closer toward civil war hundreds of people from both sides losing their lives every month. on friday another suicide bombing in damascus is yet further evidence of the escalating conflict into this is continued to take place despite the presence of arab league observers on the ground and then add we went to the legion asked them to help but they didn't want to listen to mars and didn't respond to our complaints exactly he's responsible for what's in the country right now remains far from being clear despite the dangers involved people have continued to risk their lives getting information out of the country jean shouts

a leading expert on nonviolent revolution includes the actions of the syrian people quite amazing even this so many people were killed the day before. said i'm not afraid we're going to. hear a great. torch but the opposition itself is becoming increasingly divided with more and more army deserts is joining the ranks in calling for a violent eva three the government danger is that those soldiers who moved. from this area have concluded. the rest of the syrian army if they want to succeed. the way they do it you know the league has once again when you think rules for the violence from full sized and i think that's true of either finding safe. there in syria this vast country and

many of its people are fighting extremely hard right now for the right to determine their own future the government here might say that that pushing reforms three that many people in the country feel that simply too much has happened to much blood has been shed for anything other than real change to now be an option sara for. damascus. despite growing discontent with the arab league's mission in syria political analyst sara thinks the group is on the right track to finding a way out of the crisis the violence is two sided there are attacks against government troops these realities on the ground need to be reflected by the observers the arab league observers and unless they have time to really see both sides of the story we're not going to know how best to solve this conflict we're not going to know how best dialogue will happen and who to trust and who involved in this process syria also has to be careful to have people come in and not those

with political agenda seeking to destabilize or undermine the syrian regime of course there's also violence continuing in this must stop so the arab league needs to find a just way to end this crisis and not listen to the western pressure that's coming from europe and from america to intervene in syria and to get the united nations involved right now let the arab league try to do its job. moscow has been trying to mediate a peaceful solution in syria for months and has thrown its support behind the arab league monitors and russia's foreign minister his commissioner for human rights says there must be more understanding that some of the violence is being caused by an armed opposition. we do very much support the peace initiative by the league of arab states with here for submit the draft screw the council resolution your in the security council. which for the you gets to see from

where the last. one hopes we are going to see it because it's reviewed for them to strike the balance unfortunately where this government will be from the from the government forces from from the army and police but where the most significant force just come from all sorts of. extremist elements. tried to hide behind the backs of peaceful peaceful demonstrators. and you can see the full interview with russia's foreign minister as commissioner for human rights in about twenty minutes time here on our team. of ghana stands demanding the u.s. army hands over control of its main prison in the country within a month and that's after a detainees at the american run jail outside bagram air base complained of torture jason did say political analyst at website antiwar dot com in washington says president karzai is angry over being sidelined from peace talks between the u.s.

and taliban. a lot of these allegations have been the subject of court cases in the u.s. over the past few years particularly in the question of holding detainees without any specific evidence or charges and u.s. courts have found repeatedly unfortunately that the military base that bob graham isn't under their jurisdiction and that the military basically can detain people as long as they want without charges at the air force base i think it's pretty clearly related to president karzai as efforts to speed up the transfer of the base which itself seems to me a function of the ongoing talks between the u.s. and the taliban and there's been talk that there will be prisoner exchanges between the u.s. in taliban and i think president karzai is hoping to get control of some of these prisons so that he can have at least something of a seat at the negotiating table if for no other reason than that having access to

trainable prisoners president karzai is concerned that he's being treated as very much a secondary partner and in negotiations with the taliban and he's trying to get some sort of bargaining chips involved in this process karzai government a very atrocious record with handling detainees as well particularly detainees accused of torture but i would like to think that. there's at least some hope that they would have access to the afghan court system which is of course far from perfect but is a dramatic step up from no access to any courts at all. also i have for you this hour here on our team the opportunity of a lifetime or a daddy it's a bumpy road for euro two thousand and twelve host ukraine as it faces questions over whether this is the right time to stage a football torrent that's costing billions of dollars plus. you. are still by far. the.

two key players of the e.u. germany and france meet again looking for ways to world cracks in the euro zone germany's already thrown billions at saving the euro it's no surprise that it wants more control over the rest of the pack which is why berlin players are pushing to build the so-called fiscal compact meant to take the reins over sober and budget but it's an idea that's not going down well on germany streets especially if there is a threat that germany can gain certain positions and influence in the e.u. and it may not really have any right to be doing this germany over the money order it gives the government gets more power more power for and i hear this is bad i think there's a danger the so-called robin hood tax is another proposed to measure it would charge the e.u.'s financial institutions for every money move the mic with the aim to standardize the market however with more. gloomy economic news over the euro

the official. talks from the. video. now in the palm of your. home. this summer ukraine well comes to euro two thousand and twelve one of the biggest sporting events in the world as co-host with poland it's costing billions of dollars to overhaul roads airports and stadiums to welcome football teams and their supporters organizers believe it will all benefit the country's image but alex here to ask you found not everyone shares that optimism. the incredible adventures of food bullheads from extreme accommodation to driving through impassable roads this is the scenario some believe awaits fans who will flock to

ukraine for the euro twenty twelve tournament kiev based journalists organized this photo exhibition trying to voice a rather pessimistic message about the upcoming football cup. we're being told by the government that everything has been built but the fans will face those problems that we ordinary craniums face every day very poor stray petty issues bribery by the police and terrible medical facilities raided could be a major failure. at first glance such concerns may seem laughable even in the darkest times of financial troubles the euro twenty twelve projects remained top priority when almost all construction projects were halted roads airports and stadiums never stopped being built after a string of stadium opening ceremonies in ukraine you wait for chiefs are now completely sure the country is ready to host the tournament we went through

a different periods of the preparation so some of them. solve successful but in the last two years we made huge progress in terms of infrastructure construction and also in terms of organisation so in principle. but this is just one example of what really worries some in ukraine this broken road is only several hundred meters away from a vital highway and there is a slim chance it would ever be repaired before or after the tournament kicks off experts believe ukraine simply has no money for that and the euro twenty twelve will not change the situation. of ukraine is spent fourteen billion dollars on euro twenty twelve projects but we predicted two or. only hope for a billion from the tournament twenty eight times less everyone knew that it's a typical situation especially faced in europe the question is if we could afford such spending in hard times like this. tournament organizers brush all this

criticism aside saying regardless of how much money your twenty twelve brings the country is building a bright future for itself for the first time in twenty years history people get new airports new roads new terminals everything is new we believe that people who is in ukraine they will come again the ways of ukraine so this is our main goal especially europe twenty twelve clock was installed in central kiev to count down the minutes to june skew cough and despite some skepticism the majority of ukrainians are relieved to see it ticking in their capital city not anywhere else with all the airports and stadiums springing up it's hard to believe now that almost a year ago the tournament could have moved to another country by u.a.e. for as ukraine was not doing good enough now there is no doubt whatsoever it will be held here but one question still remains whether it would become an opportunity of a lifetime or a luxury this economically his country could not have afforded

pathfinder series here in our t.v. we introduce you to pioneering foreigners who have had business success in russia. well despite the long cold war or perhaps because of it russians have always had a thing up for hamburgers and milkshakes it's a hearing paulo brined sought to satisfy when he brought the first american diner to the country. i got here st patrick's day march eleven o'clock at night star there was no neon on the street. to the hotel i went up to my room and i said to myself what i do but i decided that our staying and i met a young russian guy became my first and is still my partner today. just started to move forward and not look back. steiner came from the united states and went

on a ship and came to st petersburg and then drove down on trucks time we put it into the park you know and like one day i wasn't there and two weeks later we were open i think it was the challenge now i was really exciting when i opened my first business here. because we were the first we had a lot of people that thought we were crazy to put a diner in the middle of the park despite all the objections there and we didn't we knew it was going to work because i had worked here for two years on the lookout i actually got on their stand the culture. and thought process and russian despite everything russians have always had a love for america you know and you can't get more american than a diner one of the great things about designer was modular so when we ordered it from the united states all the pictures are on the walls. all the buddhas are made in the united states but they're red in their classic diner. furniture so

well we had crises here and ninety eight. by you know an arcane other than ninety eight the last one and it wasn't so bad because people came down market they were spending less money on risk and we have a really moderate price category so we our business actually increased a little during the last crisis i think there's still a lot of opportunities here i mean it's just under saturated market for like ten million people i could use a lot more restaurants foreign businessmen really have to understand a lot about the country before they get here and they have to know their own business really well be able to adapt because you know it's not my way or the highway situation here it's like the russian way i would say the first thing is they need a russian partner they can trust and then they have perseverance because it's not going to happen as quickly as it would somewhere else i once said you know in the

in america you have. all the rights but no freedom in russia i said you had freedom but no rights to it. so. it's probably the biggest differences in management style management is more harsh and more dictatorial i think that's a negative because if you don't challenge them you don't get a second opinion on whether you're doing the right thing or not i would say developing managers is probably the biggest challenge because they don't have a lot of management experience i think sometimes people look at business and they say i have a business but i think every business has three components ok one is the employees the other is the owner who puts up the capital and wants to make a profit and the other one is the customer you know if you don't treat all three of those aspects as being important you're not going to be successful you have to take care of your employees have to take care of your customers and put it together

where you're going to make money. and if you don't put those three those things together market work. well shortly one of russia's most senior diplomats explains why the country refuses to listen to lectures in democracy from the west but before the ad the headlines.
