demonstrating full since the supreme council of the armed forces took power from mubarak last february because to them they say that the ruling generals have been actually representing the old regime something they've been fighting against and something actually they revolution has been designed to gets read all but one today we have many signs indicating that these when this this new parliament the muslim brotherhood as well as some of the second talked to didn't. actually go in. the rate we scoff and that's why many people who have been able to speak to here in cairo say they feel a little bit strange. parties where if an ocean is tracking the latest developments in the egyptian capital you can check out our his twitter feed as well as her personal account for the latest on egypt's first parliamentary session and the growing frustrations in the region and one of her latest tweets she writes the demonstrators are calling for presidential elections in two months instead of waiting till viewing all the updates online for you right now. in libya at least

four people are dead more than a dozen injured after fighting broke out in the former qaddafi stronghold of bani walid fighters still loyal to the deposed leader a clash with militia there was this follows a warning from the leader of libya's national transitional council that there is the threat of civil war again protests in the city of benghazi forced to the resignation of his deputy this past weekend in a rage the libyans took to the streets of the city that was the center of the opposition in the uprising against gadhafi demonstrators are now accusing me and you see of corruption and a lack of reform and favoring form of government officials look to our president the arab lawyers association tells r t libya could be on the edge of a return to chaos. that is the risk for two reasons the reason number one is that the still in the hands of the that it's militias that is. the differences between the two on a tribal basis and one. have you heard of the same time the ideas the political

views of the people are in conflict you have some people who want woman rights to have more than ten percent seats in the parliament well at the same time you have others who saying you shouldn't have percentages women should have equal rights but no special favors for them you have a situation where people who want islam to be part of the constitution well you have the other the liberals who don't want to do that so you have a conflict on policies as well as the availability of firearms. coming up the u.s. often calls for a democratic change in the middle east but some say they're reluctant to recognize the right of palestinians to stop determination president of the palestinian national authority mahmoud abbas who is visiting moscow talks to r.t. about the latest moves in palestine's bid for statehood exclusive interview coming up. the.

visit is the final stop on your european tour. still waiting for a resolution to the statehood issue what do you expect from russia's leadership at this stage when the issue of palestinians legal rights is being decided according to international law. the russian federation as well as the soviet union before it has been regarded as one of the key and principal hopes for the palestinian people since the nine hundred seventy s. when the late palestinian president yasser arafat visited moscow our nations have

enjoyed good relations it's not only the result of the role that russia plays in the region but also due to the fact that russia was a great power a member of the united nations security council and a member of the quartet of middle east mediators and this is why we focused so much on strengthening our relations and why we expect russia to play a positive role recently the quartet took a number of steps calling for negotiations without doubt we coordinate our position with russia and several other countries to get an understanding of where palestine stands what it should do and what it should. and. this is why we visited the u.k. germany and have now come to russia we hope that the talks with israel currently underway in jordan will result in a positive outcome but if they fail we would need to have a list of further steps to be taken and putting together the action list we want to listen to the opinions of the countries i mentioned earlier and russia in particular. for some israeli officials the

negotiations are just a way to gain time they say the talking games will not bring about solutions or agreement which will make time for those who know how to use it. how to use it what stands behind that statement. means they want to preserve the status quo something we completely reject all illegal settlements all illegal buildings must be torn down and removed from palestinian territories perhaps the israelis have a different vision although in the past they have left their illegal settlements on the sinai peninsula and sharm el sheikh and returned back to their borders we have the same situation in lebanon they'll leave some of the settlements there even with that they want to preserve the existing situation of the palestinian territories and seek to convince the international community to accept that they want to make us accept this vision but we will never accept it.

and then jimmy netanyahu said that he gave you a twenty one point proposal detailing the israeli position by doing so he refused to meet in ramallah despite his promise what is that document all about. i met him three times in september two thousand and ten the first time in washington on an invitation from president obama and the second time in sharm el sheikh and the third time we met was on the twenty fifth of september at his house in jerusalem where we talked for four hours and discussed all the issues here. talks ended with no positive results no discontinuation of the development of the occupied territories no changes to security policies the israeli way they intend to occupy the west bank and the heights for another forty years. this is colonial policy and colonialist logic this is not the logic of a person interested in constructive talks and peaceful coexistence with his neighbors i don't refuse to meet but i need to have

a good reason now i guess twenty one point proposal and what are these twenty one points are they just some headlines or indeed a list of twenty one issues that need to be addressed by our peoples. as of today we only need to discuss and solve two issues borders and security and why would we want to add more issues to the agenda did he think it was some sort of a secret but it's no news and it's not of any practical use either but it is not appropriate for a prime minister to submit this way a document that simply enumerates some issues such as borders security the jewish dated cetera with no clear indication of what is actually expected of the other party. do you think current events in the arab world could strengthen your position in the peace talks and help the palestinian issue internationally. there's still no clear position common to all arab countries yes there are revolutionary changes taking place but it will

take time to figure out what results they brought about the countries we want to work with in order to strengthen our position will need time to get back on their feet and build their states under the new conditions however the general arab stance on the palestinian issue has not changed and the people who lead these revolutions are the same people who supported the palestinians in their pursuit of independence and these people have not changed what has changed is their attitude towards their leaders and their governments butt. that is their internal matter and we don't get involved the arab stance on the palestinian issue has remained the same. and what the hey the mr president your address to the u.n. general assembly was very emotional it could truly be called an historic event but as it turned out it still wasn't enough to convince nine members of the u.n. security council to grant the palestinian authority the status of full u.n.

membership would it be possible to continue with the talks if you agreed to the status of a nonmember observer state. nation security council we received eight votes but we need nine still not upset everyone is pressured to vote against our membership today we refuse the idea of being a nonmember observer state so everything is possible i'm not saying that it can't be everything is possible if you ask me about the official position of the palestinian state on this issue i'll give you the answer we seek full membership or we will apply for a second time etc until we get our bid approved. on this year that i thank you very much for being with us today every possible success in the implementation of political reforms and creation of a palestinian state. and

a long time ago the people of the caucuses used to shepherd droves of sheep across the a bug of lambs were often targeted by hawks even today they're. back to this past world. but i mean this is a bearded vulture i need is the bows and. arrows of this kind of bitterness on low lying logs of thirty or forty kilometers from here. but when they go hunting. fifty kilometers in search of food. they're interesting creatures. the above go is situated close to the great a northern slope of the caucuses mountain range from the grassland you can get

a panoramic view of the mountain ridge of the caucuses nature reserve. there is also a clear view of mount fished one of the highest points in the western caucuses the local problem let's try to get the mountains in fraying filming is best done from the highest point on the a bar go it's about nine hundred meters above sea level here dimitri is teaching a son killed how to set up for the filming. look. normal you can see that the lighting is on one side of the mist covers most of the valley. we don't want to fill only the mist we need to focus on the foreground look at the grass gleaming in the sunlight and it's light of the valley is dark. so the light strip will show this shot to the best advantage. no.

the greater northern slope is a continuous chain of mountain ridges tops by snowy peaks millions of years ago there was a vast sea in this place the smallest part of it the black sea is now hidden behind mountain ridges they form a shield in the way of warm breezes blowing from the sea the warm air creates a sub tropical climate in the foothills of the southern slope of the greater caucus's ridge there is a moderate zone further upslope the kingdom of eternal snow and ice on the mountain tops is more than three thousand metres above sea level. which is the. i'm going to film these magnificent landscapes we never know in order to show them. to the hundreds of people who never venture here. either because they

interests on this path is broken europe's the only way here there are rocks on one side and a thick tangle of red and red on the other it is very difficult terrain. all . the ranges camp out in small parts and it's always cold in the mountains at night.

or. shortly before dawn the main three in kill head to a small flat mountain top according to an old caucasian legend do you often meet the sunrise in the mountains lives a long and happy life. get real you can no see mode you go and you're right in that the sun will rise from behind the aspen pass. we're going to choose the highest point for filming will only have ten to fifteen minutes for that. when you. form.

the sunrise is a mystery of the woman used to it no single one is ever the same the villain in. its truly wonderful. the nearest settlement is far away radio is the only means of communication with human civilization. hey folks if you're listening to our movement of radio show us your host once again and you get to the last term and talked about the history of the caucuses nature reserve good you can go to the small studio broadcasting the al movement show is in the town of scores of kilometers away from the a bugger for school children tell locals about the caucuses reserve journalist.

oversees the programs the children talk about the reserves animals surviving trees mountaintops and rare plants. they draw on their experience as reporters and engineers working in various protected areas therefore they always fully prepared for the program when they go on there. who have then i think when people look at it and they try to imagine what they see truly saw a long time ago. as for me i always have this on the counting feeling that my agent stature martin significant in front of these or inspiring giant.

one of the most famous parts of the caucuses nature reserve is the growth situated close to the black sea coast the oldest tree here is over a thousand years old. the grove has survived several generations of tourists and many natural disasters. according to scientists the greatest of them took place some eighteen million years ago. a rupture in the earth's crust created a natural labyrinth and the gorge the gorges bed was filled with water from mountain streams. this landscape has undergone no changes since then. visitors are fascinated by the mysterious origin of the grove and the agent trees there in they think of it as a living relic of the distant past. i can tell you that i really do feel mystical about it was that people rarely break the rules here they're not eager to

destroy or cut things down the question that some people might say i'm crazy but i honestly believe nature herself is at work here and i think this place is protected by higher forces it's. a small canyon in the outer edge of the grove mocks its natural boundary in the north the west and east in horns of an infamous mountain river called the hostile joint where the canyon is at its most narrow and the never ending war of war is a sign of its dangerous allure. then you'll love. this canyon is notorious because the water rises quickly when the snow melts or after terentia already has been with a view of a bow that whirlpool formed a strong water splashing against one side of the ravine and then against the other while the water anything that falls into the whirlpool gets sucked down to the bottom people trying to swim will walk across and end up drowning were. there have

a cargo helicopter flies through a mountain gorge before it reaches the weather station and to go do good is situated in the mountains of the caucuses nature is a as an altitude of more than two thousand meters above sea level it is the optimist station in the western caucuses it's total square is two hundred maybe two thousand head to our reservist. the only one in russia that occupies the territory of three russian regions it's really unique. the direction of the caucuses reserve personally i've a sees the rotation of staff

and food supplies in this remote area. the helicopter rarely stops at juga for more than twenty minutes but even such a short period of time is enough for dimitri says i think just some kid to get several shots on take. most of the world's weather stations located in major cities record changes in the atmosphere resulting from industrial waste and vehicle fumes the data collected juga and similar stations is important for fundamental research into how the earth's climate changes in areas situated far away from manmade sources of pollution which are now the temperature of juba is fifteen degrees above zero but

a couple of days ago trees were falling to the ground under the impact of strong gusts of wind which by the way where the snow is usually one meter deep around this time in december temperatures were unusually high in november and it may well turn out to be the warmest november in twenty five years. each day courses reserve staff record temperatures wind velocity humidity and amice ferric pressure. one team is on shift for two months. on its way from to go to the grand northern so.
