former k.g.b. man sponsor different clubs including luther any and euro league champions shall go race however he truly established his hardwood in byre with moscow region side sparta before leading the russian women's team to europe in silver so a lifeless ordinary which ended tragically in two thousand and nine the best possible lover and interbrand was murdered as a hail of bullets hit his car in central moscow he died at the scene his killers were never found but the legacy of common knowledge lives on. for us he was like a friend a father a mentor it was always a family atmosphere even though we were a professional team we always felt close to the players but the people are. smart are quickly established themselves as a basketball dynasty winning all available silverware in russia and europe over the past five years sitting in

a record with force which you really titled and they were watching the twenty ten triumph to common knowledge his wife and former player on that he would carries on his legacy she's now president of the club which plays under the name sports and key it changed its name for copyright reasons but kept the last letter king in memory of their four mona one of the most influential figures in women's basketball he really kind of set the standard for the rest of the world to follow in the way he treated the girls the way he interacted had he not come along and fell in love with women's basketball we probably would be standing here with an excellent infrastructure and solid rules to sport and are a perennial top flight side and their motivation is to get back on the very top after finally losing last year in their fifth straight year a league showpiece yet the club is not only about it senior team it also has a youth academy where hundreds of kids looking to become the next generation of stars is now in there he's now building younger players to to get to this point to

welcome to the big picture. syria's opposition says president assad will follow in cut down fees footsteps as the unrest spreads to new york where un security council members seem unlikely to reach a consensus. occupy d.c. protesters dig their heels in they wait for a police crackdown after the deadline to leave they said by city or thor he's. had london security goes logs for the upcoming summer olympics with tens of thousands of troops on the high tech spy drones all that amid fears the spirit of the games will be damaged by the show. and in the business bullets and emerging

market currencies have been outperforming both the euro and the dollar is this going to continue to find out in about twenty minutes. we will welcome to you this is live from moscow i'm rule received shy the syrian opposition has threatened president bashar assad and his family that is what followed the fate of libya's late leader moammar gadhafi saying he's lost his chance of a peaceful exit this comes after the opposition rejected russia's proposal to negotiate with the regime here in moscow. now reports on the concerns that outside play. determined to throw fuel on the fire are the ones behind the opposition's reluctance for a compromise. with the stance of gunfire and hillary. oh

yeah those of us from the streets and the increasingly loud anaemia international opinions britain needs to lead the way in making sure we tighten the sanctions the travel bans the asset freezes on on syria 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 right now has proven difficult. we've had tanks entering in firing and just enjoy or we've had six people who've died we travelled to the suburbs where some of the clashes have broken out to try to get a clearer picture of what had been happening here in the last few days when one of the suburbs of damascus at the moment now we were travelling to a suburb called and we thought. that 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. don't know what's going on in these areas even the people who are living in these areas don't really have the situation at the moment we make it into the suburbs job or using backwards 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 died in the fire during his funeral people and his relatives were voicing slogans and called for freedom summer 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. . begins and some other members joined as well and this took turns to people they know just being arrested in the changes and the atmosphere starts to fill so.

it's such uncertainty right now it seems mistrust is rife. it seems sort. of convinced the free syrian army that coming closer to the capital would be simpler now 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 having ground to a halt. the whole reconciliation talks is not one to be simply dismissed. 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 taken in the past in calling for a syrian solution to a syrian problem that it's repeatedly failed to communicate now if that unity is

the dialogue of running out fast. and with such desperate pleas for many people here the opposing sides continue to make it clear they don't want to listen the cools the international action it's just going to keep getting louder surf r.t. and ask this meantime constantino from a russian state duma foreign affairs committee starts at the opposition's being told by the west that the regime is doomed to failure and there's no need to negotiate. i believe that the all have had a unique chance to get together by arranging political consultations in moscow this initiative was rejected yesterday by their position and the. reason the look there are no prospects to speak out of this regime because this regime is out of question they were there they really why because messages coming to syria from

abroad from washington from brussels from elsewhere has have always been this regime does not have a future you don't need to talk to them this is the wrong message and by that message they have undermined prospects for political consultations and moscow or elsewhere and this is how we will continue to see clashes in syria we will see blood we will see casualties weak teams unfortunately it will continue to happen not to due to the russian position but due to the position there you know that there are very very unfair position taken by the united states and their allies and russia's foreign minister sergei lavrov has asserted that moscow will never approve military intervention in syria but has the battle is shifting now to the u.n. security council in new york with its members set to negotiate a new resolution allegedly backing the arab league's peace plan that is more important as a preview. the united nations security council will hear a report from the arab league today detailing findings from its recent monitoring

mission in syria this of course coming as an arab european drafted resolution on syria is already circulating among council members the draft calls in part for syrian president bashar al assad to transfer powers his powers to his deputy this draft resolution also says the security council could quote adopt further measures if syria does not comply with the terms of the resolution in the meantime russia has said it cannot accept the draft resolution in its current form because it simply ignores moscow's position 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 up by by european countries open the door for foreign intervention possibly foreign intervention similar to what the world saw it transpire in libya but he's worried about noir the reporting from new york it's good to have you with us today still to come on the program a big sweet victory for the euro. a twenty five new nations agreed to a new treaty making it a sanctionable crime to abuse. this comes one. the czech republic joins the u.k. in rejecting the much hyped proposal. of the philippines a finds itself in the

middle of a power struggle between two global giants turning the battle of wills to its own advantage. and to corporate protesters from the occupy wall street movement in washington gearing up for tough police action they passed a deadline set up by local authorities to remove camping equipment from the city's squares but artie's lives while discovered the activists are still remaining loyal to the cause. so we are here at macpherson square where protesters have been occupying the park since october throughout 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 he is what everything this movie 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 shadow over the statue here at macpherson park it's all a 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 rich from corporations and banks no longer have control over political system the federal government and the political leaders in wall street were all tone deaf they could not hear this so the occupy movement has offered them a hearing aid and they're getting our message loud and clear now the purpose of this was to unite us in this space so if they want to arrest one of us the after arrest all of us are not us and washington. liz wahl. and i mean time 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 using tear gas flash grenades and hundreds of arrests activist a robot awol from the occupy d.c. action team thinks the protesters fell victim to a militaristic style 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 horrifying to see what'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 sticking together in ways that try to shield each other from the police and i think it's important to recognize the distinction that they are i haven't seen anything that looked like violence on behalf of the protestors coming out of oakland i've just seen people being proactive and recognizing that they're going to be facing what's effectively an armed force. corporate movements elsewhere in the world are also facing tough action not only from the elites abundant runs his car through a group of demonstrators as the police do nothing to stop them you can find the

full story from our london correspondent at t.v. dot com. it is a nearly quarter past the hour here in moscow are america's decision to station its forces in the philippines as part of its new asia strategy is now threatening repercussions the china daily called on beijing to enact economic sanctions against manila after invited in u.s. troops in a reaction to an escalating territorial dispute but it has been a. political research at the institute of southeastern asian studies expects a stronger reaction in the coming weeks. the us has claimed that this is about to maintain the freedom of navigation and this is partly the interest of the us but i think if we look deeper this is not only about to maintain or to defend but

navigation this is about to counterbalance the rise of china and when you talk about the rise of china this is not about economic rise but it's also about the rise of military capability for beijing the issue of the us reengagement we saw east asia we defeat being sent also or intervention in the south china sea issue that is very important for the chinese government the chinese government has perceives. you as part of it preserving national interest so i think we anticipate some sort of rest from beijing in the next couple of weeks perhaps we might see something coming out of beijing in regard to. you with our team don't hesitate to log onto our web site on. the best place to look for the latest updates comments and videos some of the items are standing by for you right now including.
