hello karen tara thanks for being with us broadcasting to you live from moscow russia and china have given a firm no to the latest u.n. security council resolution on syria moscow has defended its move saying the draft fails to deliver a balanced approach to be on rest and favors extremist groups which could ignite even more violence that says those who are behind the document are now ganging up against the veto states marine import nine reports from new york. in a matter of just five minutes after the meeting began russia and china both wielded their veto powers not supporting this draft resolution that was written up by the arab league and european countries while the draft resolution was supported by thirteen members of the security council russia was asking for some amendments
5:02 am
according to russian foreign minister sergei lavrov those amendments were not excessive and mr are a lot of said that russia was urging the west to accommodate moscow's concerns to reach a compromise on this draft resolution china said during the meeting that it supported russia's amendments and said for the council to approach a vote knowing that there was a divide it did not help maintain the unity or the authority of the security council russian foreign minister sergei lavrov said that moscow does not support using the security council as a tool to intervene on a sovereign country experiencing an internal conflict he believes that could create chaos in international affairs so as we see there was two vetoes on this resolution it did not go through and it's because russia believes that as the draft resolution
5:03 am
was presented it had a lot of imbalances in it when it comes to the current circumstance in syria russian envoy to the united nations vitaly churkin did go into detail about those imbalances that you know the draft resolution does not adequately which led to the real situation in syria the incident and. the co-sponsors of the resolution and would if there was that i'm not taking into account the syrian opposition they must distance itself from extremist groups committing violence. on states your ability to use their influence to prevent such. know will have been taken into account because of a. with was drawing the syrian forces from the cities. to attack. state institutions . nor has the being schooled for affording more flexibility to get into. states to increase the chances of a successful grossest purchase foreign minister is scheduled to visit damascus on

tuesday to meet with syrian president bashar al assad this is a move to hold to to hopefully reach some type of peaceful approach or solution to the conflict still waging in syria the arab league has also addressed the media at the security council at the stakeout saying that they are extremely disappointed. over today's outcome but they will continue trying to work with the security council with the united nations to try to reach some type of consensus now u.s. president barack obama did also issue a statement of his own before the meeting began to dating that you know the united states is on the side of the syrian people that are opposing the syrian president and his government and he said quote the assad regime at the time has come for the reason assad regime and to change clearly the united states is pushing for regime change this is a sticking point this is something that russia does not support so we'll see what
5:05 am
takes place in the days and weeks to come but as of now the draft text proposed by the europeans by the arab league vetoed by russia and china. off from the stop nato group says that when the alliance gets involved in trying to resolve a crisis peacefully it usually ends and bombing and violence. what i fear is we may be see a replication of what happened in one thousand nine hundred ninety when the united states and its nato allies launched a seventy eight day bombing campaign against yugoslavia having failed to enlist chinese and russian support for un resolution against that in a few of those laws i'm hoping of course that the resolute stand taken the principled stand taking the taken by russia and china against a resolution that we have to remember was sponsored by morocco and co-sponsored by a very interesting group of people they include the middle quality of the world the united states britain france and germany along with portugal they include all six members of the gulf cooperation council that is the monarchies and camera in the

persian gulf this is not a representative group of nations of course in the united nations or the world so very select one is largely the same group the comparable resolution one thousand and seventy three against libya last year no armed uprising of the sort of burn in syria could have occurred if it was in libya earlier kossovo yugoslavia thirteen years ago without the understanding by those in gauging the armed uprising the bay would be supported by forces outside the country more than two hundred people were reportedly killed by security forces in the syrian city of homes just ahead of a vote at the un security council but the figure is being contested with some opposition groups putting it at around fifty syria try be own editor ali mohamed says the information coming from the opposition shouldn't be taken at face value. but there were not to be leaving the syrian army we had to do it in months and then just the night before the security council meeting we decided to start bombarding
5:07 am
homes. which in homs are being difficult for the syrian. regime supporters for such a long time and i don't see why the army would choose such a critical timing to just start it's a vicious crackdown as described it is the art of only two means and just two weeks ago we had the arab league observers who could have gone there and investigative but unfortunately they were pulled over for little good reason and therefore there are only claims from these so opposite claims from their side we are not treated to what's going on but i don't think that the army what's really it's it's not like the syrian army this is number one james like that happened before in. just a short time and the opposition was not able to prove any of these claims over the best in months a little later in the program we report on another target of western press here iran is ready to cause chaos and world markets saying it will respond to

5:09 am
since world war accosted last february but it's also triggered a new wave of clashes between the police the army and defense reaches that have actually become something common seen here in the capital cairo and everywhere for all of egypt the fact is people have been very weak to excuse the import slate incident to use local forces especially the interior ministry of doing nothing of the allowing this to happen allowing these deaths over and efficiency and actually over instigating these trials in order to preserve the situation of instability in the country in order to fit into existing following somehow. through terror and rule the generals from the supreme council of the armed forces they took power from the barak last february and since then demonstrations actually have never told shortly after this happened on wednesday the public school football fans have come to leave but it's nothing to the minister here in the central pa who just walked

and islamic studies at the university of exeter says egyptians are tired of waiting for accountable leadership. supreme council of the armed forces. mismanaged the transitional process to a large degree the expectations on the egyptian street where they thought that they would be. power from italy to civilian elected civilian in six months and therefore once you have elected civilian rule the investments will come to life the economic life will be back to normal there will be a formal restructuring of the security services that acted in a very aggressive in. the mubarak era and all the expectations of the the economy to enhance a better economy the dignity the freedom the bread the slogans of that evolution were not really accomplished by a year after the revolution that's why there is a protest last friday and on the anniversary of that if it was wanted

compared his opponents to the orange revolution supporters in the ukraine martin mccauley an expert on russia at the university of london says the only hope the opposition has of winning is to unite behind a single candidate. result of the election of course we are very very important because what these demonstrators want is if you like a clean election an absence of fraud and so on and it's up to the authorities to ensure that there will be cameras there and so on and therefore it's probably will be a very clearly election but what is important is that it seemed to be fair and that these people have no cause to claim that the election on the fourth of march whether president vladimir putin wins the first round of that has to be seen to be fair and to be clean otherwise it will be tremendous protests on the level of about the opposition will not come together they don't want to compromise they don't want to arrive at
5:15 am
a single candidate the only way they're going to defeat the will put in on the fourth of march just have a single candidate who is accepted by the whole opposition and there's no likelihood of this it looks already as if it cannot easily garner the common is going to will come up second as he always does then the villagers of skim milk of a third or fourth and so on the meter are proper of who bring up the rest because he is there really only to appeal to the middle class urban voters. measures are already being taken to ensure transparency at next month's election one of them is an unprecedented plan to install webcams at every voting station for direct internet broadcast but as you go to scan of reports not everyone is convinced it will be effective. 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
5:16 am
sometimes but i think if anything i ask the central electoral commission to install web cameras at all polling stations across the country so that everyone can watch online what's happening there how much twenty four hours a day when they go we want them there. the idea was put forward following the biggest protests in russia since the collapse of the u.s.s.r. with tens of thousands demanding fair elections so wiring up over ninety thousand polling stations is the scale and around a half of a billion us dollars is the price tag. coming into the system is not be made only for one day we help 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 therm to local digital storage facilities after computer processing will be then sent to seven large storage and distribution centers via cable radio and satellite these centers will then
5:17 am
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. you'll get a bunch sure the observers won't be able to check advance if these cameras work or not and shave using a camera phone everyone knows about cameras in supermarkets but these still doesn't stop robberies from happening. it's planted that every ballot box will be monitored way to cameras one with the general view and another with a close up of the slot there are many ways to rig a vote and the cameras don't provide one hundred percent guarantee against that but using them should still make it much more difficult to stuff boxes of course there is nothing new. or where cameras.
