breaking the deadlock russia says it's ready to back u.n. action on syria and also in the peace plan put forward by the world police envoy to the country. must cable and it will continue to pay any drop that that's not stated against the syrian government. dozens of killed and over one hundred injured in the latest spate of violence across iraq just one day after the ninth anniversary of the start of the u.s. led invasion. and thousands of workers in the u.k. left struggling to find employment to mob justice some of the learning they were placed on a secret police backed blacklist our top stories this hour. international

news and comment live from moscow this is r.t. moscow's ready to back a u.n. resolution on syria as long as it contains no ultimatums aimed at assad's regime that's according to the russian foreign minister who's voicing strong support for the u.n. special envoys roadmap to peace in the conflict torn country u.n. security council is set to consider voting on a draft statement on syria later on choose day sarah firth has the details. russia remains very much focused on what it said all along which is that it is calling for a cease fire to hold to the violence in the country but it's not going to back anything the same as putting in the ultimatum on the syrian government to. talk about solution is seen as simply backing one side and now we know the foreign minister lavrov was meeting today with his lebanese counterpart and he spoke about

the trough resolution this is going to be discussed later in the security council that's because so far from. that i used to back a pin and six point peace plan calling for much the same things that the arab league observers mission had been asking for the whole to the coil and the whole its security forces from some of these conflict areas the release of political prisoners we know they can finance already been to syria to discuss this with president assad that is very good at the security council can later on today i come to some sort of consensus and put there it's just a poor behind up plan but of course it is very much as we say going to come down to the wording of that plan and whether the security council will be able to carry on the times before russia has voiced support not only for a few nuns a peace plan in the country but also for the growing calls the humanitarian ceasefire within syria we saw the foreign minister meeting with the heads of the

international red cross by yesterday backing these plans for the ceasefire within the country so that's absolutely essential if there is a lot of faith now that the security council is to me full pos these barriers that they've been meeting over things like the wording of these resolutions and kafeel nonsense leafy perhaps is a mediator between the west ham rushes storms we've had foreign minister level saying that you can't you know plan doesn't put the ultimatum it doesn't put the pressure just on one side and say if this can now put pressure on both the opposition on assad to push for this cease fire the study there's a lot of hype that some sort of consensus can be reached. when working at syrian resolution the u.n. security council should be wary of america's habit of using the world bodies mandates to serve its own agenda well that's the warning from washington based activists jake. says we've seen in the past what the u.s.

government does is it takes these what seem to be innocuous nice sounding resolutions and then drives the you know a mack truck through them and says oh well this justifies military intervention this justifies bombing attacks and no fly zones and so forth i would assume that the russians are going to be very cautious about the wording of their resolution but it but i think we should keep in mind that no matter what they do with these these resolutions these interventions they always end up with a worse situation and there's much more death and destruction is so forth if there is intervention my position is just leave this to the syrians to resolve what guides us foreign policy is getting their people into public office around the world and it's led to the disastrous consequences we see in iraq and afghanistan elsewhere around the world where people despise the u.s. that's right some of us are saying it's time to dismantle this whole regime change foreign policy of interventionism in wars. a series of

coordinated gloss wrote several cities in iraq killing more than forty people and injured almost two hundred three car bombs exploded in the northern oil rich province of quetta cook killing nine a further two called bombs hit the predominantly shia city of kampala eighty kilometers south of baghdad killing thirteen other attacks in the capital and two southern towns targeted local police headquarters and eight is flawed and comes nine years after the us that invasion of iraq began and ahead of next week's arab league summit to be held in baghdad international human rights lawyer and peace activist curtis doebbler has told me that foreign forces still in iraq at the roots of the problems a lot of iraqis still see their country is occupied by foreign forces there is from many different. parts of society that are trying to remove those foreign forces the clear this is the ongoing situation it is part of so people started to ten years

ago with evasion occupation of her but since that time because they are the government has not been able to exercise control over many parts of the country it's very fertile territory for different types of terrorist organizations to then settle in and to be able to carry out a cry a lot of us don't create the mystique and there are still thousands of outside foreign forces particularly american soldiers on iraqi soil that are contributing he would say to security i would suggest to the situation of insecurity in my view the best thing that could be done for security is to ensure that the iraqi people themselves are enabled to be responsible for their own security and that cannot be done while their foreign forces in the country. rushes envoy to the u.n. says that the u.s. led coalition in afghanistan shouldn't be pulling out as its job isn't even remotely complete the kind of chicken statement comes as the u.n. security council rolls over the latest developments in the water. and country let's

get the latest details from ortiz marie important she's in new york marina why has decided to weigh in on this issue of russia isn't directly taking part in the afghan campaign so why is it telling nato what it should be doing. well simply put the international stabilization force in afghanistan was something that was mandated by the security council and according to international law it is the security council that house to give approval and write a report before all the troops withdraw from afghanistan and that is why russian ambassador vitaly churkin is weighing in on this situation and while that's why other members of the security council are discussing afghanistan today now what ambassador churkin indicated is that the fact that there is an escalation in violence that's ongoing and terrorism continues to be under threat he said it is ill considered to establish arbitrary deadlines for withdrawing troops if

the situation in afghanistan right now remains very critical and very unstable ambassador churkin said that security viable security needs to be established before international forces leave one of the many concerns that churkin raises the fact that the production and illegal sales of drugs continues in afghanistan he said the production of opiates increased by sixty percent in twenty eleven and the fact that he said that there has to be stringent measures taken to eradicate the drug fields and drug crops in afghanistan he went on to paint what we could consider a very scary picture of this circumstance in afghanistan now with many civilians still being killed by airstrikes led by nato forces and an upsurge in violence still taking place there so the point that is being made by the russian

ambassador to the united nations is that the nato forces the international stabilization force cannot just withdraw on a specific date of a specific year if afghanistan is not stabilized. to international mission in afghanistan what are you seeing coming out of the u.s. concerning its progress in the country what is the message from washington is it with the way things have gone. well if you listen to recent statements made by the u.s. commander in afghanistan general john allen he recently spoke just a few hours ago to the to the u.s. congress indicating that the mission is on track now if our viewers have been watching our coverage of afghanistan and reading the papers they see that there's been several scandals ongoing in afghanistan you know with respect to the u.s. the most recent scandal of course involving the killing of sixteen afghan civilians

by a u.s. soldier and that came just after there was the burning of korans u.s. base in afghanistan also afghan human rights groups released a report indicating that detainees are being tortured in the country's jails in afghanistan and the report released by the afghan human rights groups also indicates that the u.s. has continued to transfer prisoners to pan's now this is a proctor's that was banned last summer but according to the report that was released a u.s. the u.s. is still taking part in a prop does that is essentially illegal so we do hear u.s. top officials saying mission is on track to fall out and this candle's involving the u.s. mission in afghanistan clearly does not indicate any positivity there is a lot of work that still needs to be done in the reputation of the united states

right now and it's it's you know operation in afghanistan is it's clearly tarnished at the moment and they have to be working on how to get a list at least paint themselves in in a better picture and at the very end of the day bring peace and security to afghanistan thanks very much indeed for that report in new york. with you twenty four hours a day we're live here coming to you from our studios here in central moscow coming up in a few minutes back listed britain. we're not about what he stopped you can imagine it it's it's put your horse in jeopardy put your front of a fence or break your relationships and generate income pay or pose any more find out why you work isn't whistle blowers in the u.k. are fighting back after being kicked out of the workplace. and we report on how russian authorities are planning a new lease of life for the two hundred fifty thousand webcams installed during the recent presidential that. story still to come but first the greek parliament is set
