american troop withdrawal in december. and thousands of construction workers in the u.k. struggling for employment demand justice off the learning they were placed on a secret blacklist supported by the police they believe they were singled out for whistle blowing about safety issues on building sites. but with violence in syria only escalating talks with bashar jeffrey is the country's ambassador to the u.n. to us whether the solution is any nearer in the crisis that interview next. joining our team for an exclusive sit down interview is syrian ambassador to the united nations dr bashar to fahri ambassador thank you very much for speaking with r.t. today thank you for having me with you to that thank you the united nations estimates that more than eight thousand people have been killed since the anti-government

uprisings began in syria year ago my question for you how long can the violence and bloodshed continue or what if these one victims or if this is too much for the syrian people and for the syrian government there has been a huge exaggeration of the figures of the victims the government is not responsible for this much because as you know there are a lot of it is you know international elements should be taken into consideration while assisting the u.s. it's an aggressor going on in syria all the groups in syria maybe even resist an army unless they have a credible for the reason that they use against the government forces we have been saying for months we are dealing with groups and the beginning during the first eight months everybody was denying these facts. by saying that the syrian

government is not telling the truth and that there are no armed groups on the ground and that everything the government the syrian government saying is about lies and then out of a sudden after the eight months and when the u.n. official started talking about the scores of victims they acknowledged that in syria the government is dealing with armed groups i'm not saying that all the opposition. in syria these are the opposition in syria is about wings we are dealing with peaceful demonstrators on one hand but we are living also with armed groups on the other hand otherwise how would you explain that so far the syrian government has lost two thousand five hundred officials security officers army officers army soldiers and people don't i mean stuff going on it would be unfortunate of the law this dimension should be

taken into consideration why. assessing what's going on in syria you've said that there is as long as some mercenaries that are part of the opposition. is it possible that there's regular civilians that are fighting for just a bit of justice or are in the streets fighting for justice those who fight for justice purity justice should engage and the government's called for national and inclusive and the government is really serious and committed to making the inclusive syrian led political process a successful one why has the syrian government fell so far bringing the opposition in for talks because the opposition is not independent and it's making decision the opposition i mean here i'm talking about the extent of the opposition this wing of the opposition as well as the article of the decision makers outside of syria be fulfill instructions coming from saudi arabia from cookie from france from the from

washington you are talking here about a network of armed groups. which which are not independent. in policymaking they cannot take this issue without getting the green light from washington or or the whole quarter or the saudi arabia or turkey you just named countries and cities why would those countries and cities be interested in creating chaos in syria some of them would like to settle accounts with us such as the americans for instance the british because syria was against the invasion of iraq they didn't forget it and they want pursuit of their accounts with us. well europe that might be a surprise for you but this is how it is washington. would like to create a deviation from the palestinian question where the israelis are corner of the

right now as you know on the issue of. the by the sinister get the full membership in the united nations i think that's why they were absolutely absolutely not only syria yemen egypt tunisia algeria moral core although you don't think any of this was about the citizens of those countries just wanting to create better lives for them saudis i don't think that i said i'm not judging or assessing the domestic situation in these countries i'm saying there are there are legitimate popular claims that should be listened to and taken into consideration even in syria the government should listen to the legitimate claims of the people otherwise there is no justification for any government just a will it is if it works against the interests of its own people but the issue is that these capitals western capitals and need to create a deviation they found what they were looking for in the escalation of the

situation in syria by by using this. as a deviation. the they can serve the interests of peace or that they can serve the interests of those who are against giving the full membership to the policy and state of the united nations i'm saying this because the israelis and the i mean you guys are coordinate with. the international community so-called international community i don't believe for much of this war magic war but the people at the see these international community has been supportive of the palestinian request to get the full membership yes the majority of america are states of the united nations they don't know who the palestinians have got so far one hundred fifty five states supporting their request to get the full membership there is no way they could progress one inch with the city got but when they got a one hundred thirty seven votes against syria in the general assembly then there

should be a declaration of war against syria because syria is not fulfilling that was a mission of the assembly it's about the people concerned it's about double standards they are not serious about making any assistance to the syrian people they are harming the syrian national popular claims by using these claims against the will of the syrian people how to syria expect russia and china to remain as adamant as as they have remain in preventing any kind of military intervention from becoming a solution in syria you know that russia and china has vetoed two resolutions plus the security council but i was struck by the us we have many friends in the security council in the forefront of course russia and china they were the only two that cast not the arm of the or the you know as far as the ocean a lot of the guys that it was because they are one or the other two out of the p five plus me rephrase that they were two out of the only two out of fifteen that

did not support that resolution in the second then this is the second most recent remember and the first is a solution or for abstain. and for if you wait for i'm not talking about i don't want to divide on the whole but the most recent months russia and china the understand what's going on and the war they are aware of and they nor there. give a live go once again. on syria and the that would be the end of the international law and the end of the charter of the united nations there are rules to be observed suffered in fields member states this is not me i'm saying that this is that the provisions of the couple you have to respect the sovereignty you have to respect that in total in thinking you don't have to interfere in the domestic affairs of member states you have to help yes you have to assist yes but don't take advantage of the suffering of the peoples in order to interfere in their domestic affairs for your own purposes you as

a briton have never been keen interest in serving the interest of neither the syrian people nor the russian people nor the chinese people these powers insisted for six decades on ignoring the completion of the golan if there were really serious about helping the syrian people they would have exerted pressure on the zionist to withdraw from the city in order to throw from the remaining people in south lebanon occupied by using it to to give to the palestinians their inalienable right of self-determination and having their own state in their own country so these elements are. global issues and should be understood. when i ask you about the more than eight thousand people have been killed in syria said that it's not the fault of the syrian government russia has said that they're responsible informed on both sides

both sides are responsible for the violence and bloodshed for the government in syria and the opposition group but at this point it's not about point blaming one side or the other it's about you know getting humanitarian assistance in there creating some kind of dialogue having said that why do you believe the world should trust that the syrian army is using force adequately i didn't say that the government is not responsible for i said the government cannot assume the responsibility of all these killings in syria because of course in any military confrontation the army is is and is a government so in any military fighting there is on the one hand the government and on the other the armed groups these two sides are killing each other in a traditional war. in them since war because what the government is saying is that . he's addressing the opposition by saying you have claims let us discuss these

planes at the table not by using weapons and by just did. and destructing and attacking oil refinery pipelines gas lines not by killing eleven military pilots not by assessing meeting governments off the shelves and doctors academy i said this is what the governments say the government is not being knowing the need for reform of the country on the contrary we are totally open minded towards the form of the country but i think really speaking and this is what happened in the with the book from of the new constitution the president from now on will have only two terms there will be but if it went on to elect the the president from among the many candidates

not only more popular politicized i mean not one candidate and many candidates for the presidential. this is what the opposition was calling for and this is what happened now it is there we have it and why continue with this bloodshed why listening to instructions coming from for saudi arabia for turkey from france from the russian a little sit together as syrians make sure syrians and discuss our own future by our old sense and i thank you very much for your time thank you. with the end of the core war and the going away of the soviet union many people thought that nuclear weapons disappeared. the risk is not zero that's something that might be going off by mistake special of nuclear weapons on hair trigger alert

. focus of the victims who use it as a threat all. you know if you keep spinning a trillion dollars a year on weapons of venture you're going to blow everybody up you you know people are dying from these weapons but until we actually see it people don't wake up to move through weapons or a bill. that represents all the firepower of the second world war this second sound is the equivalent of a higher power of the world's nuclear arsenal today. wealthy british scientists on the spot.
