morocco on friday and calls in part for syrian president bashar al assad to transfer powers his powers to his deputy while a unity government is formed in preparation for new elections now according to reports this draft resolution also says the security council could quote adopt further measures if syria does not comply with the terms of the resolution now in a show in a show of western solidarity u.s. secretary of state hillary clinton will be joining her british and french counterparts at the united nations on tuesday to show their support for this new draft resolution and possibly push for a vote in the meantime russia has said it cannot accept the draft resolution in its current form because it simply ignores moscow's position on the issue of syria

in addition russian officials say they would like time to study the arab league's report in detail and not act so swiftly or too swiftly now on monday the russian foreign ministry did invite members from the syrian national council as well as the syrian government to come to moscow to participate in negotiations and to get a dialogue started our viewers may remember that it was back in october when russia and china did veto a previous u.n. resolution on syria citing that the language that was used in that draft that was of course also written by by european countries that the language open the door for far. an intervention possibly foreign intervention similar to what the world saw it transpire in libya. reporting there now the dust has not yet settled over

the suburbs of the capital damascus which saw some of the fiercest fighting since the beginning of the unrest with regime troops taking the upper hand now that's amid concerns the escalation of violence is down to outside players throwing fuel on the fire as r.t. sarah ferguson now reports. with the stance of gun fire and. yes of protests from the streets and the increasingly loud and numerous international opinions britain needs to lead the way in making sure we tighten the sanctions the travel bans the asset freezes on can be hard to hear the syrian. the syrian case has developed as every side wants to push away the responsibility to another tossing the ball back and forth. in the last few days the situation has become so unstable the finding people willing to talk quite know has proven difficult. we've had tanks entering in firing and just enjoy or we've had six

people who've died we travel to the suburbs where some of the clashes have breaking out to try to get a clearer picture of what had been happening here in the last few days when one of damascus at the moment now we were traveling to a suburb called and we thought it was a friday. but we just received a phone call telling us that it's not safe to travel there at the moment the situation is so volatile it goes to show you really that you simply don't know what's going on in these areas even the people who are living in these areas don't really have full grasp of the situation at the moment we make it into the suburbs of job or using back the opposition that just last week had control of some of these areas have now gone underground so there was a funeral for a resident of who died in the file sharing his funeral people and his relatives were voicing slogans and called for freedom someone was shot dead during the

funeral and we had to go and hide from the security forces. after it had taken to meet some members of the f.s.a. before the end he begins and some other members join as well and there's talk turns to people they know just being arrested in the changes in. the atmosphere starts to feel hostile so we live in such uncertainty right now it seems mistrust is roy. it seems not have convinced the free syrian army that coming closer to the capital would be simpler no this is harmful to the cause of bringing peace to syria. everyone it seems is no waiting to see what if any outcome will be the un's briefing by the arab league's with a look having ground to a halt case offer to hold reconciliation talks is not want to be simply dismissed as many have already done they have do political aims they have two political reasons for. for for feeding the complicated in syria i think they

don't want that they're not interested in due form nor are they interested in democracy or freedom was the government accepted the invitation received mixed reactions from the opposition they size of being vocal in the past in calling for a syrian solution to a syrian problem that it's repeatedly failed to communicate no opportunities for dialogue are running out fast. and with such desperate pleas from many people here the opposing sides continue to make it clear they don't want to listen the calls the international action it's just going to keep getting louder surf r.t. damascus now the idea of the syrian opposition dancing to the foreign drums as shared by john r. bradley author of the book after the arab spring he says nato members are committed to toppling the regime to make iran their next target. they're under huge pressure

from outside powers who want these talks to fail even before they begin most obviously nato nature is determined to bring regime to its knees as a prelude to invading iran saudi arabia is financially and politically in the backing. the opposition. has been widely reported to be funding arming the jihadi rebels who are leading this insurrection we can be absolutely sure that this is nothing to do with human rights when it comes to the west and even more sure when it comes to the concern of saudi arabia this is how preposterous the western media coverage is of this uprising rusher of course has that experience to dora and once bitten twice shy they know that if they support a u.n. resolution that even ostensibly is aimed only protecting civilians it will be used by nato as an excuse to impose

a no fly zone while the countries and saudis fund jihad is on the ground and so. russia is essentially crucial in all of this. one just a few minutes we report on another potentially even bigger a powder keg in the region iran faces another blow from the u.s. who as lawmakers are pushing through further sanctions against iran despite its current talks with the u.n. nuclear watchdog. and the philippines finds itself in the middle of a power struggle between two global giants turning the battle of wills to its advantage. as a corporate protesters from the occupy wall street movement in washington are gearing up for tough police action they have passed a deadline set up by local authorities to remove camping equipment from the city squares but artie's lives while discovered the activists are remaining loyal to the cause. so we are here at macpherson square where protesters have been occupying the

park since october they were out the demonstration about one hundred tents have been pitched here the national park service has repeatedly slapped these notices on tents here macpherson square informing protesters that they can no longer camp out here that means they have to get rid of sleeping bags and any other material which allows them to live here protesters are responding by painting that symbol on the notice which demonstrates the fact that they do not agree with this mandate there are tens can stay about their doors must remain open proving no one is living in it the notice warns protesters that violate the rule are subject to arrest and it's basically a symbol of opposition. to you know what everything this moon is opposing right now and so i think the tents are really important part of what you buy but police presence was sparse with no reported arrests they stand mostly on the sidelines refusing to answer questions from the media no one but occupiers made

their message loud and clear they are not giving up the fight here as you can see protesters have erected a massive head over the statue here at macpherson park it's all in demonstration to the anticipated even action by park oh yes this is our tents of dreams we want to be able to sleep here so we can dream of a better world where everyone has access to health care education housing and where the recession corporations no longer have control over. the government and the political leaders in wall street were all. toned could not hear this so the. offered them a hearing aid and they're getting our message loud the purpose of this was to unite in this space so if you want to rest you have to rest all of us or none of us in washington liz wahl r.t. . now the mayor of oakland california has called on the nationwide occupy movement

to disown the local protestors after the weekend's demonstrations there they were met by a strong police reaction with tear gas flash grenades and hundreds of arrests activists robert well from the occupied. the protesters fell victim to military stick police force i think you have to recognize the specifics of the oakland police department they're known as one of the most violent repressive in the country and it's exposed how militarists militarized american police have become in recent years so you know it's shocking it's two it's coming out of oakland but it's hardly surprising knowing what we know and it's worth remembering that the oakland police may be under federal control soon because there have been so many civil rights abuses there if you look at the videos you don't see protesters attacking people you see protesters taking together in ways that try to shield each other from the police and i think it's important to recognize the distinction that there i haven't seen

anything that looked like violence on behalf of the protesters coming out of oakland i've just seen people being proactive in recognizing that they're going to be facing what's effectively an armed force. and to corporate movements elsewhere in the world are also facing tough action and not only from the police along the bailey runs he's car through a group of demonstrators as the police and watch can find a full story from our london correspondent at r.t.e. dot com. also online so-called healing pyramids attract russians improve their health but skeptics dismiss the structures as far as false idols designed only to help people with their money. and the pentagon's money management proves to be far from efficient as one hundred million dollars one stored in saddam hussein's palace disappears into thin air.

america's decision to station his forces in the philippines as part of its new asia strategy is now threatening repercussions the state owned to china daily called on beijing to enact economic sanctions against manila after divided in the u.s. troops in reaction to an escalating territorial dispute dr popkin on wang of the city university of hong kong t. that the philippines is cashing in on regional instability. at the international level the philippines not. return to refocusing its military and security deployment in the middle east in asia pacific. china in iran the primaries security concerns the philippines also see that their recent changes in the regional politics particularly in taiwan where mr martin to you and to call restriction was successful we were elected means. taipei would have

more stable relationship more expression in terms of economic integration across the street in the coming years and the footprints knows that the u.s. would need a more reliable ally in the asia pacific region so the philippines is reeling to learn it has to do to the american for that kind of particular security concern the u.s. is having in the asia pacific region i have already noticed there's tremendous pressure from the pm within china asking and urging the chinese government to top up for a top position of the philippines however i think the chinese government should be a bit more careful about these internal demand so i think the philippines is all doing that to trying to get the best interest from from this china and u.s. relations. now to end now their region doubts the focus of intense american

interest u.s. senate lawmakers have released a plan for a new round of sanctions targeting iran's energy sector the veil and at choking funds used by to iran to allegedly develop nuclear weapons will be mulled over on thursday but while washington shows no signs of easing up on tehran iran's foreign minister has welcomed the extension of the i.a.e.a. mission in the country a team of u.n. nuclear inspectors may now prolong their stay in iran beyond the initially days the minister was optimistic about the possible renewal of a nuclear negotiation saying that i eva is it a step towards easing the tensions however american radio host ralph schoenman it about the talks as he thinks the u.n. body is under too much western influence is the very idea that iran is somehow obligated to open its front gears who are essentially penned. by the central intelligence agency in the mossad this imperialist genda which takes countries act syria out him as their targets now concentrating on iran expresses the

permanent war of the waves against subject peoples by american corporate capitalism this united nations has forever been an instrument of such imperial policy first attempt to cut off iran as your own trading capacity its ability to import placement equipment for its refineries then they want to tie up its banking and to preclude people from the good from trading with its banks then there it is in fact engaged in trade with iran is subject the united states to penalty what do you think this is better than active war. a look now at some other stories from around the world over two thousand people have gathered in believe his main city demanding their doom construction of a conversational new road set to go through an amazon reserve plans to build a highway were canceled last year after indeed.
