12:48 am
have the right to change. well i would say that. will we all have sort of the right says states and it's not too probably it will judge the judges not be the right word to. underline the existence of problems yes i think every every country has this right and the we did this very important because you don't consider returning your paper to to be judging be a model judges we're here you're trying to highlight the problem with a way that iran lives and we are a we are making it clear there are problems do exist many of them are trans border as we call them problems or common issues and problems and a very important message you know report and i hope that this message has been taken and we heard that you can use to convey meaning and that we invite to even broader and more inventive international cratering why is your report so selective
12:49 am
because it's mainly situation in the united states and in major western and western countries. as we call them countries of europe why are you so selective doesn't make you biased when you become selected because we're not judging. the u.s. so this is what you care about well the u.s. report well the u.s. report. describes the situation in all other countries of the world with it with one exception yes we have the united states of course the. you can guess why but. we do not follow this pattern we and we do not want to mention a country only for the sake of mentioning it but we wanted to show once again birth issues and problems exist everywhere including in the most developed called oncor democracies and if these and it is not just to criticize for the sake of criticizing it is to invite those countries and others to more cooperation are you
12:50 am
biased. well well to be to be frank do you think that you are sort of biased i don't know but i think we're biased i mean if you if you look and if you read the report and i believe you did it. the reason nothing you can bet report which is not altogether which is altogether unknown to the international community or which isn't you mentioned by those who said what is this is what's the point what's the point of making a report based one paper is already published by international organization like you mentioned the analysts think. and the others they're all already or configures was the point of putting them together here in other point of be going to give a different angle a different attitude of well we do general as we do system and there is a little bit differently we're not just compiling it will just leave. we. we're not kooky we are we're not just compiling and the idea is to. express our views
12:51 am
on just to make it clear that we do observe certain issues and problems in even number or in a number of countries and there are quite a number of countries i mentioned in our report and. i mean the scoop of the report. is essentially will remain unchanged because it develops i mean it depends upon b. developments in the field of human rights which. i mean we don't exclude that maybe some other countries can be mentioned also well about other countries and this is a nerve thing that makes me think i think when i read your first report of some wise you you mentioned you speak a lot about the united states about you know what this report does know some countries where the situation in the field of human rights is well. worse. please not better than in the united states and some you can countries some
12:52 am
of the russian neighbors why aren't you mentioning them why aren't you interested in the situation there will be after all there is you know i always remember beauty is in very good color you know you never you never know what it is if you have difficult to see better or worse but. i tried to describe the logic which we followed when we prepared the first and. i would want to underline this is the first report and the first experience in russia but every country which you mentioned will the last of the usual b.s. and even the kremlin says worth while that they are concerned with the human rights situation for example in belarus right. before a minister has said write one on one occasion yeah it does not the absence of. the sort of country our first report does mean that he does not mean it we do not know good morning that his injuries were going to have cost him dearly and we do not.
12:53 am
underestimate the problems which exists now but are we. as i said i would report is not the one only channel through which we can print we are with us so there are other channels including in the russian foreign minister. russian policy russian foreign policy is becoming more and more problematic which is good the reason why i've started talking about the bill the ruth countries like syria which are more difficult and russia is there i think that that the criticism coming from moscow towards countries like poland and syria would be more effective in criticizing their states. when you think we're not criticizing them. we are a veteran of the we do express our views including. those congressmen to mention not only but i want to get a different channels and we are doing. speaking of syria we are doing a lot as a russia to. promote the political process to which would
12:54 am
result definitely obviously in bettering the situation because of human rights but political process not the external external interference in the syrian rebels so we are contributing and we are of course frankly telling our friends and partners when we see certain things which are wrong and in the end if you love human rights we don't visit it could you give us an example of the human rights violation that there is that in your report there wasn't common knowledge i mean for the white audiences in some country before you published it before you made it beautiful. you know. hard for me probably to my to guess what was not known to the wider public but i would like to know in one issue. which we unfortunately face and witness. more and more regular basis which is not good you know and the
12:55 am
means i'm speaking about. tauriel. proliferation of you know or projection or all of the u.s. law. i would say the united states and we have seen a number of instances when the russian citizens have been illegally extra day to the united states from the third countries without without beautification or the russian of the russian government. under the consular convention under the international law in general. this is a very worrisome trend and we have been underlying it. constantly to our american partners and. i can different refer to a number of cases but. here's one we can say mr boot this is one of yes there. is another case quite recently just a few days ago another russian citizen has been excluded from switzerland to states
12:56 am
just as that i mean and once again it is very important that all the necessary. for militaries and provisions of international law i followed by the u.s. government all these cases all these cases any russian citizens rights abuse that brought other your priority or your. concern that for example the the rights. of the citizens of other countries being violent definitely physically was pretty definite so you are the other russians abroad well i am working. for the russian foreign ministry and i'm a russian diplomat obviously the legitimate rights and. and freedoms of russian citizens this is a big concern for me for my government for the russian foreign ministry but i am also i am also. monitoring a lot of leave limitation of human rights in general in general thank you thank you very much for being with us and just to remind you that my guest today was constrained sandel what russian foreign ministry special envoy police knew and
12:57 am
that's it for now from the top like will be back with more comments on what's going on in and outside russia and so then they are our team to take. and all.

. put to the test as the u.n. general assembly scrutinizes the syrian crisis group is seen by some as an attempt to put the screws on russia and china. europe gets hit with yet another wave of downgrades as competent collapses over the bloke's future century presses ahead of its austerity crusade against greece. roughneck wait for that it with pre-election campaigning positive car produced this precise number vaunted video of the presidential candidates.
1:01 am
and online twenty four hours a day for watching r t the un general assembly is preparing its members for an upcoming vote over a new draft resolution on syria documents echoes the one veto moscow and beijing at the security council in early february un human rights chief said the inability of the party to take action on the syrian crisis and handed president carte blanche to execute him without the sort of decisions are. not legally binding some believe a vote for us in an attempt pressure on russia and china to see. this meeting has definitely lasted the entire day we've been hearing speeches from dozens of countries that started early in the morning and of course this comes only a week after a double veto from russia and china blocked an arab and western backed resolution
1:02 am
on syria at the security council so what we saw was an attempt from saudi arabia and qatar to go to another body of the united nations and attempt to find some kind of decision there i'm sorry even though the general assembly does consist of over. hundred ninety members we have to keep in mind that it's not nearly as powerful as the security council because whatever decision comes out of the general assembly is by no means binding it's only seen as a recommendation by the rest of the international community and what's key here is that the tax office of this supposedly resolution of the general assembly will be voting on voted on has not even been circulated yet we're hearing about it's going to be pretty much the same document that russia and china vetoed and russia's unsure and china's problem with the text was that it seemed biased to the countries saying that it only named to the syrian government as the main cause of all the conflicts going on on the ground in syria but not the arms of groups the armed groups and that's something that continues to be a major sticking point the recognition of the two sides to this conflict by the
1:03 am
international community we've been hearing all of these countries make speeches city see it saying that the syrian government is committing atrocities so really this is another opportunity for those who do support regime change on the ground to send out criticism towards the syrian government many experts are saying really that the fact that this symbolic diplomatic gesture is being attempted at the united nations doesn't really mean much because any sort of document is not going to help stop the crisis on the ground are less pushes for a cease fire so many are saying that should be priority prioritized at the general assembly these days and not just you know a lot of words of criticism. well that's when the u.n. correspondent in williams says if the action in syria is pushed through the u.n. general assembly concerts a dangerous precedent. the arab countries in the western countries want to show that they're doing something. if they were serious then they would have pressed for
1:04 am
a special general assembly an emergency special general assembly meeting under the uniting for peace resolution and this you made me remember field rich with irony was the form that the u.s. and britain used to fight the korean war in the face of a soviet veto in the early fifty's since then it was resurrected by the palestinians to bypass the american b.t.o. in the security council and that's i presume his wife is not being involved now because i use the phrase a non-binding resolution a resolution that established the state of israel and partition this was a general assembly resolution that was not binding then we're doing go from there and you know what we have is some of our say that resolutions they like are binding a resolution they don't like a non-binding. the contrary president of the general assembly could have followed earlier precedents and said that there was sufficient support for a special it an emergency special session but he hasn't done so and i'm sure that
1:05 am
because a western pressure. they don't want to establish a precedent they consider these resolutions binding because that would be upsetting next plan b. there was a palestinian resolution. in syria and the reports continue to emanate from the protest homes and with the spiraling violence now being fanned by some players are coming into concerns the crisis could take a sectarian forms on sisera furthur ports. a predominantly christian town of milly lies in the syrian mountains it's even here in this hauntingly beautiful place and signs of the polarizing conflict was tearing apart much of the country right now a creeping in and a sense of foreboding hangs heavy locals tell us they don't travel out of this area much longer feel it's safe we speak to the nuns at the monastery here they tell us about the town's preservation of the ancient aramaic language and like their

qaeda video calling for holy war overthrow the assad regime by alliance is just not going to end we see it happening in an iraq neighboring iraq sectarian violence that is catastrophic and nobody is reporting on that reporting on syria and they're not focusing on the potential problems that syria could lead into another iraq on the streets through an increasingly desperate population has called for help in whatever form it comes as long as it stops the violence there's little time for them to think about long. carrion really was many of them worrying about daily survival anyone or. anyone over there so. yes. in syria right now the state still largely remains a long lines it is concerned it is this increasingly bloody conflict continues it could turn into i think kerry in one as well so i think it's serious

government has cut more jobs slash funding for the nation's pensions a minimum wage the current policy appears to mainly expose those most vulnerable to crisis conditions it's a mindset some feel is doomed to fail and they already have destroyed the whole generation of young people and their dreams destroyed. maybe an infrastructure of the old country we know that there must be a base there that we have now signs that the busy legal or old which we cannot continue like that because the policy but the government is following actually increases the bit yeah instead of finding the solution of the hearts of activists claims is there a solution that they've noticed there. he for the best part of five years now and the time taxes have risen incomes have fallen the country's deficit only seems to grow ending this austerity cycle is something sought by an increasing number
