the u.n. . resolution text on syria which. is no longer a regime change. after three days of intense debate united nations security council members are sending a new element of a possible future resolution on syria to their governments for deliberation all the latest details from new york the program. killings are reported in egypt after two days of more than seventy. murdered. says he regrets.

it's twelve noon here in moscow your with a very warm welcome to you well top story now russia is claiming a diplomatic victory at the u.n. members of the security council agreed to take a more balanced syria calls for the removal of president. have been dropped from a revised resolution text which is still pending approval. is warning it will oppose any attempts to even hint at targeting the syrian regime. has more. after see three days of diplomatic deadlock over this arab and western backed regime change resolution it looks like russia's calls that it would not support such resolutions have finally been heard and we're seeing somewhat of a game changer take place delegates and diplomats seem to have agreed on new

elements that they are considering putting into a new document and we do know that these new elements are being sent over to governments at home for consideration approval and deliberation and for more we know the russian ambassador to the u.n. has said that this does not mean that anything has been fully decided yet and russia continues to reiterate that even if the hint of a regime change clause continues to be presented in such a resolution it would not be supported now what we what we're hearing and some reports that this clause will actually be nonexistent in this new text being considered whereas earlier the arab league and the west have been seeing that the syrian leader needs to step down if this does not happen within fifteen days further measures could take place another clause that we're hearing is going to be removed from this document is the arms embargo that russia has also been opposing

but from what we understand what will continue to remain in a new text is a support of a facilitation of a political transition now of course they have to again say that some of the details are still largely up in the air some diplomats are saying that a vote could come very shortly as soon as on friday others are saying that it's going to take a little more time monday possibly we will just have to wait and see exactly how events play out the security council in the days to come. well the u.s. is committed to seeing a change of power in damascus in order to strengthen its position in the middle east that's a view of politics first magazine editor marcus papadopoulos. western interest in the conflict in syria isn't guided by want to advance human rights democracy or the rule of law in the region if it was about that then we'd probably see an american naval flotilla off the coast of saudi arabia which happens to be one of the most repressive regimes in the world it follows a pro western foreign policy syria is

a huge player in middle eastern politics and the west principally america has a very problematic relationship with syria so it would be very much within america's interests for the syrian government for president assad to fall from power and for a more accommodating a more sort of pro western governments culture parallel should that happen that would give. the sheets an almost full dominance politically in the middle way so instead of western governments the british and the american and the french ones talking about president assad stays being numbered they should be more responsible when their outlook and the main focus should be on bringing pates to syria. but still ahead of you this electrolyze are watching our web cam as well who presided over the upcoming elections move on to transparency.

this program please forgive me for all the slander the thai said and wrote about you know the hatred i had for you even only i had known my son worked for british intelligence i would not talk about his death he could easily have been shot as a double agent betrayers should be short of story what else can i add to this. the u.-turn vaulters says came when his son's we doe marina bin and co revealed to the british media that her husband had worked for m i six further details followed when a newspaper launched its own investigation alexander litvinenko was receiving a retainer of around two thousand pounds a month from the british security services at the time he was murdered it is understood that sir john scarlett now head of m i six and was based in moscow was involved in recruiting him to the secret intelligence service. at first by turnitin and co like many others claimed his son had been poisoned with polonium to tan on

they like it when i scold the regime i was a root treasure for the end of the hall there are very few people who would say as many horrible things about me as i did. in two thousand and eight but the only thing young call flat russia or sanctuary need silly is settled in the sleeping quiet town of sydney got it all for didn't you anonymous life the man claimed putin was his number one enemy so hiding in europe he believed was the only safe solution today was the only thing young co is still afraid to open this door not because of putin though but because of his landlord to whom hill has a lot of money this miserable life has made him a slave of his century but surely the namco sold everything he had in russia to come to eataly he opened a small business several years ago but it went bankrupt things got worse after the seventy three year old had buried his wife but are now fears her casket could be

removed because he hasn't paid the cost of a barrel plot and it's been months since the electricity was shut off to his flat he was lost forty euros went on a gas canister and that is gone to your this is how most of us talk it over in the store to let the southern wind inside. there is east only as russia through my home learned more from tourists i want to go home to russia. through i don't want to stay here. archie sinegal yeah eataly. coming your way in the program a learning how to be a community because limbs in belgium of the body do run it fundamentalist group but supposing radical reforms. the german chancellor is in china

asking for help in investment for the euro and it seems she might get it as china's prime minister says the country is now considering contributing to european rescue funds anger merkel is on an official visit to beijing where she's been trying to reassure the chinese about the economic situation in europe if you don't sort of like to see beijing support the western position on iran and syria china gets ten percent of its oil from iran. has been calling on china not to buy more crude in order to support and even bother to use its influence to isolate iran to abandon any possible nuclear weapon and visions analysts say beijing is an important player in the middle east and it's only interested in a diplomatic solution to the crisis in iraq. is not. sanctions. we reduce. oil from iran he doesn't mean that china is going to increase its import of oil from iran but i

think china we. mean the least we. the mantle of principles of china is diplomacy and i meet the china easing a very strong but deep position in the middle east goes. through a lot of evil of course i know it's very good relations. but china relations we. saw china. well as the u.s. a presidential campaign hots up we look at who the republicans may end up choosing to challenge barack obama and it's what's in the crosstalk debate. for mitt romney to have a debate with the president on the health care reform bill it's going to be laughable because the bill that the president signed into law was based almost entirely on the bill that mitt romney signed into law in massachusetts. you're

right he's not even going to be able to make that argument and the question earlier is as a conservative enough i mean how can anyone call him a conservative when he himself has called himself a moderate the real deal here is the republican party trying to get the conservative grassroots to support the guy who lost to the guy who lost to obama and so there's this endless cycle of you know it's your turn that's being shoved down the grassroots throat he's been running for five years he already has organization set up and all the states plus the backing of goldman sachs and the republican establishment and the guy still can't break fifty percent i don't think he would do well in the general. it's a question of identity versus integration shari'a islamic group in belgium is under five which local people say are too extreme which other muslims feel threatened by

. bearded wearing a camouflage jacket and constantly surrounded by men fought a belt is hard not to notice he heads the islamic fundamentalist group shiria for belgium in september the group opened the country's first sharia court in outwork to mediate domestic disputes among muslims with our own system of belief. of having things if you want to accept it accept it if you don't. there is judgement if you if you're a muslim you will go to paradise if you are this believer you will go to hell. any further controversy may have ended there if that was all there is to it that video such as these. have caused outrage. the freedom of speech and. the hatred incitement to violence starts

we have. leader sharia for belgium he openly. said that. i should be. should be killed because i am going to be a vision in january and work or prosecutor recommended two years in prison and a fine of five hundred fifty euros for about the same for inciting hatred and violence against non muslims that's in addition to fourteen police court convictions and criminal convictions for robbery defamation and violence. just a few people maybe a dozen of people maybe two dozen of people dressed like. the green. and. yet it has its repercussions on other muslims. this kind of group of course they are moved but they have no religious background it is

a minority perhaps that in search of an identity but that's ignorance and the misses they're using it's scary and it's freaking people. unfortunately just kind of group shows about image of islam and most muslims condemn this kind of ideology this is a misinterpretation of her secret. muslims comprise about six percent of the belgian population one of the highest rates in europe and is expected to rise to more than ten percent by two thousand and twenty the muslim who live in belgium. they are belgium from the region. you know rigid and first. mostly radical groups such as those of the islamic fundamentalists comprise a minority and it's not representative of the muslim community in belgium nevertheless politicians analysts and even the belgian muslims themselves acknowledge that the problem is what these groups symbolize radicalization the

process it spreads and the allure of extreme views. tests are so your r t brussels. with some wild headlines in brief for you now this hour two people including a three year old girl have been wounded by israeli airstrikes on the gaza strip both were injured after one of the strikes hit a house in the town and. five other attacks targeted several tunnels and what israel claimed was a weapons manufacturing facility the strikes happened only hours after the u.n. chief visited a mass controlled territory in a bid to kickstart israeli palestinian peace talks. at least six people have been killed and more than twenty injured in colombia a group using pickup trucks for high. what is at the station twenty five officers were inside the building when the attack occurred tyner. he comes just a day after. the explosives were in station sitting. eating and living

people that place the blame for that attack left wing. and the cold snap sweeping across eastern europe has now claimed the lives of one hundred sixty four people snow was two meters high in parts of serbia leaving around eleven thousand villages stranded parts of the country of one hundred people died in ukraine alone after temperatures plummeted to minus thirty degrees celsius food shortages have been reported in the capital kiev trucks are unable to transport supplies. the watchful eyes of webcams are about to be set up across russia ahead of next month's presidential elections the move was proposed by printing of that printing that's after thousands of people took to the streets late last year calling for transparency in the election process not easy office cough has a story. inch after inch mile after mile big brother is preparing to cast his eyes on polling stations as the massive campaign

to install web cameras is in full swing across the entire nation but actually sometimes but i think i asked the central electoral commission which is to install web cameras at all polling stations across the country so that everyone can watch online what's happening there almost twenty four hours a day certainly. the idea was put forward following the biggest protests in russia since the collapse of the us a song with tens of thousands demanding fair elections so wiring up over ninety thousand polling stations is a skill and around a half a billion u.s. dollars is the price tag. the system is not be made only for one day we have. this project want only develop elections acknowledges but will also help modernize telecommunications infrastructure across the entire country. all cameras will be feeding the videos the film to local digital storage facilities after computer

processing will be then sent to seven large storage and distribution centers via cable radio and satellite the centers will then broadcast the information to several web portals it's estimated that all together the cameras will film and broadcast four hundred and ninety years of video information in good quality however there is still down to this technology will help make the vote more transparent. i'm sure the observers won't be able to check to advance if these cameras work or not. everyone knows about cameras in supermarkets but this still doesn't stop robberies from happening. its. books will be monitored by two cameras one with the general view and another with a close up of this lot there are many ways to rig it and the cameras don't provide a hundred percent guarantee against that but using that should still make it much

more difficult to stuff boxes course there's nothing in. the web cameras for them to monitor elections on such a scale is a first for. us of the idea everyone will be able to monitor the vote online and not to mention no one is against having more real life observers on the spot in. moscow. just ahead in moscow out program on the hunt for exciting ways to spend their free time come rain or shine here's a preview of one such pastime the mystery game. good morning everybody. hello and welcome to the show on this week's program we're exploring the popular subject of hobbies in the russian capital from board games

search string sports the cold weather. but why the mosque well that's because i'm here. in the center of moscow where this group going to in the game. this business. hello there welcome to the program the prospects for the eurozone economy are as hot as the wife of extreme weather that is keeping europe and its icy grip are appalled by saxo bank warns that the european exit will lose a quarter of its value their share and its financial system is doomed this stands

up with a survey by stanton and pull saying the troubled year is i will climb out of the crisis to share well see all thought of the best seller extreme money such. as what he thinks of the findings well i think the best way to describe the s. and p. report is whatever they're smoking i'd like to have some as far as the sec's a bank report goes i think they are believers in the mayan calendar which believes that the world will indeed do thousand and twelve but i think the major thing is that when you look at the situation there is no way that europe is going to have a small recession it's going to have a long recession because the government spending will have to be cut and that has been the major stimulus which could be as economies grow the second thing is the banking system in most of these countries is not creating any credit will not be able to create because technically if you are honest about it marginally solve them to bits and we still have not result of the debt issue and the real question is what will happen to portugal what will happen to spain what will happen to italy

and there is absolutely no result on the part of the european leadership and the european economic community because there is really no easy solution. but when it comes to russia making forecasts becomes even more complicated format world bank economist david todd told us russia has done a spectacular job over the last ten years growing faster than many of its emerging market peers but as oil no longer appears to be seen as a driver what economists wonder about is the possible source of new growth. the big question is where will future words come for. anything that we do obsession is part of the story where we can generate some great for me. but even more board knew i was happy to hear it today was to talk about the fighting corruption sure that everybody realizes the big problem for me and if it were successful that i think you will see a big development is will be available as are the diversification when you told me
