good to have you with us on this friday you're watching arts he with new rule received life in moscow. bahrain has been caught up in fresh violence as security forces use rubber bullets and tear gas to disperse anti-government protesters outside the capital. now the rallies erupted in several cities against the decades long rule of the royal family military forces have been accused of killing scores of protesters and arresting thousand cents an anti government a revolt broke out last year the address to comes amid the retrial of up to twenty doctors and nurses there convicted of trying to overthrow the government by treating demonstrators included in last year's uprising the original prosecution of the medics brought widespread international conduct condemnation global research

correspondent finney and witness some of the doctors treating the wounded during the crackdown against the regime as persecuting the medics to keep themselves at. the crucifix and they too should be human. caused but also. the doctors the nurses chaos and they were doing in my. experience really to cope with hundreds of thousands of people coming in with terminal injuries from the shots were shot on rules here you know. under. the regime is. going to. be on the drawing witnesses to really religious. issues of human rights then he. says to go really really. peaceful civilian goods. you know we lived in the middle age must speak arabic you

speak until new year's and i think this work what's behind this is. you don't. just with school should. proceed you're. part of more on this so now we can talk to christophe stole a government business consultant joining us live from berlin good to see you today with park ranger claiming it's implemented significant reforms why do you think we are still seeing protesters out on the streets. claims of the monarchy in baryon are fars and a fraud to the public. into only an externally since it's existence the problem is this he is stealing land equal economic opportunity to its people and they are so killing torturing oppressing their people in denying democratic participation so for that reason and for these reasons that people are opposed to

this one i think it's in so many years i think fifty or so this is a truly democratically spirited people it should be an armor for the western democracies to support these people well now let's address one issue of the saudis or the saudis have played a significant role in affecting events invite re not least by helping to suppress last year's revolt how strong is the saudi influence at the moment. the saudi influence unfortunately is limited to accomplish that the participation in the killing of pressing of the but really people and that in fact it's worth the keepers of market media now it's one curiously she was asserting raised by some analysts is that with the violence raging in bahrain why is syria getting all the attention you've recently returned from damascus where there have been bloody battles just just how grave is the situation there and why the spotlight just on

syria. yeah another another blunder us a little with. in syria you know bashar the head. tried reforms from the start of his to new and should he have been you know in a friendly manner supported by other countries syria would have been a much better position to know what we have done is this the west has you know is stimulated corrupt regimes and unfortunately also a d.l. a turkey to interfere in a syrian situation and what we have now is a bit as much as president obama you know openly declared in the beginning of this month and his headline to interview that we have a state sponsored terrorism in damascus i was present with this you know bomb attack in damascus that is very clearly a secret service business with some you know i qaeda people attached who

sharpshooting on any helpers approaching to the scene a very bad incident and we have more incidents of the blown up bridges incident in aleppo and things like that i call this terror management by the u.s. so we have seen reports over the past number of weeks if not the past couple of months about international snipers from various western countries are positioning themselves on the rooftops and taking out people we put aside claiming the same thing let's talk about the latest development regarding syria thirty opposition dismissing the u.n. statement appealing for a cease fire the opposition saying it doesn't meet the needs of the people but surely a cease fire is exactly what the people need. yeah correct rory what you see of course that people need and we have a situation now where the syrian national council is maybe backed by a one five fifteen percent of the population and you know if third of the council which has defected to make its own operation and that is calling for much more

violence more arms from outside hopefully some military intervention and things like that and i call this again terror management these these people are representing maybe less than five percent of the population what is. the western countries backing such bad policy it is unwise and unwise. in bahrain the u.s. stand to lose the. never forces base in syria you know they lose their worldwide credibility if there's anything to be lost in fact we've got a curious new angle here kristoffer that of the e.u. set to impose a travel ban and asset freeze on the british born wife of president assad how big a role of the recently leaked private family e-mails played in this do you think well people challenge. the assertion that this was really the account that was hacked i tell you what i don't care whether it was email or not the fact

that western countries western media say that this was the sense of town means i see it as a threat as a person a threat to the family of family of the president of course that is beyond anything what is a loud and foreign policy on this. civilized countries and again i am ashamed of this kind of policy crystal for smaller government business consultant joining us live here on r.t. from berlin many thanks indeed. it has emerged about height of japan's nuclear crisis last march the authorities in fukushima concealed radiation data vital to safely evacuated people from the area of japan has a computer system designed to protect and predict the spread of radioactive sense but local media reports say the prefectures government deleted the emails detailing evacuation routes and asia times correspondent pepe escobar says this sounds like

a major cover up you need one guy you send this i.t. guy with the minister of education to do nuclear safety tech it's so cute and it took us through response headquarters in fukushima prefecture you find who sent these e-mails who received these emails because their logs are all these operations probably a lot of people shared with me inside this what is in talk to but i see that if. you're excel is deeply involved so allow their shift to be for this long level all through short they were actually detect their worst radiation in same areas in it the same time day chose with throwing for a mission from the public so if everybody is in full search it sounds it looks in the quacks like a major cover up and it's up to japanese public opinion to ask questions so if you're pretty stress of course in japanese public opinion good to see drink it kill

true elements in fault and effect that nobody in japan wants to lose face over a little disaster like what's fukushima i'm not sure it seems that it's what happened though fortunes. it's a time but it's past the hour here in the russian capital still to come here on the program on t.v. the prejudice faced by gypsies and travellers in the united kingdom. to forcibly who's live in peace and pop each night and just to think he's about i mean anything. for discriminating against the roma community as families or as victims from come sites and some pubs even refusing to serve. three years on from the reset in russia u.s. relations there appears to be in little progress for you on that stage from the russian perspective america's plans to build an anti missile system in eastern europe a continuing bone of contention president dmitry medvedev is addressing that issue

in a security conference here in moscow today a new way is also the big cross live to a now and he said what's been the message from president medvedev on this ongoing battle in argument over this am day. overy the theme of this russian international affairs council conference happening in moscow is a euro atlantic security community and the question is it a myth or reality and president it's very detailed out and set it straight he thinks so far it is a myth but he went on to to to highlight how not only can it be trauma reality but it needs to become reality what he went on to do was to point out why it's so far has not been and why like you said that reset that began back in two thousand and nine made a lot of progress in trying to trying with this with the signing of the new stupid new strategic arms reduction treaty that obama and medvedev sybase a bit in that we're hearing not just from

a bit from the experts that are here is that back has stalled and one of the main issues hampering progress on european security is one russia nato ties which would read a pointed out a very important and they are making progress but not enough he said doors are open for dialogue in terms of missile defense but time is running out basically the problem we've heard it time and time again is that russia needs written guarantees that any kind of expansion on missile defense in eastern europe or anywhere in europe for that matter needs to be on paper that it's not against russia just telling them that it's against iran no matter how well relations are going or how much trust there is it needs to be on paper and again this is something we've heard and once again president medvedev highlighted that a lot of experts here say that's not going to stop with pledging your boots and commute back into the kremlin in may another issue that was brought out was dealing with the most pressing international issues like syria like you wrong and how that

plays into the power of the u.n. especially the united nations the u.n. security council which mitigated pointed out it's becoming somewhat of a trend that the u.n. security council is being used as a body of force rather than a body of. diplomacy he went on to expand on syria. how do you when it cannot create a democratic syria and how we cannot resolve. the crisis in terms of iran's nuclear program which of course is another big security issue for europe russia and the rest of the world but it needs to be a result of diplomacy pointing out that russia is trying to burghley against the serving up any kind of recipe for the problems of a sovereign nation the internal compass this is something again i just want to point that we've heard over and over again today it was strongly highlighted by president made it that yes we need to move forward but these problems are not just going to go away by themselves need to sit down and get through them and not through force. and he said i was in moscow thank you.

very much and our website is a great place to go for more news and analysis some of the stories by now if you today at all if you go home including the u.n. the human rights council of israel to reverse its policy in the west bank the country furiously rejects the decision. also this dramatic footage i just emotion of an american helicopter crash in afghanistan last month where remarkably no one was hurt. and many more videos on our own see you tube channel. these are the images the world has been seeing from the streets of canada. china operations to rule the day.

in about a tenuous time it's katie with the markets but for now israel says there's no agreement with washington on what would be the right time to stop iran from getting a nuclear weapon and u.s. military meanwhile has concluded that an israeli strike on iran would spill into a regional war that would leave hundreds of americans dead or thought trita parsi so those of war would spell disaster not just for america but for israel as well has been ongoing campaign for the last couple of months in which the u.s. military is leaking information about how dangerous it would be if the israelis were to attack iran how counterproductive it would be and what it would do to be that it's because it would drag the us into a war that its main objective is really difficult to achieve militarily if not impossible so this is a way also for the military military to push back and make sure that the politicians of the civilians don't make a decision that would put their military again at the center of a disaster from one perspective one could say that the netanyahu government seems

to be more fearful of a negotiated settlement on the iranian nuclear issue because of a fear that the u.s. would go with a compromise that would not meet them is really great lines and as a result they actually seem to be more comfortable with the idea that there would be a military confrontation but i think there is also a miscalculation of what lies in israel's interest because in the long term a war will not be in israel's interest either because it will bring about not only a tremendous amount of turmoil in the region but also so far israel has not had a military confrontation with any of the middle east non arab states in fact mean iran and israel over the last two and a half thousand years the relations have more often than not being good it would be a very strong red psychological red line if it were to break out between israel and iran. you're watching our t.v. now the u.s. soldier suspected of carrying out a bloody massacre of afghan civilians is expected to be charged with seventeen

counts of murder and six counts of assault and attempted murder staff sergeant robert bales is currently awaiting trial in the u.s. and could face the death penalty if convicted his lawyer says there's a lack of evidence against his client who hasn't confessed to the killings and investigation by the afghan parliament claims up to twenty others could have been involved war veteran and activist michael pries nurse says the trial is unlikely to improve the opinion that afghan people have of the united states. politicians and the generals and the officers and the military commanders they have made every single person in afghanistan the enemy it is an occupation that the people overwhelmingly a close and this is the this is the nature of the of the occupation where every single afghan it seems that are fair game by the u.s. military if we look at the have bases or of massacres that have taken place in iraq and afghanistan look at the deeper massacre in the source where blackwater guards

massacred dozens of people and these cases of people got off with no deal and so one could argue that these were fair to the people that were indicted but they weren't simply thrown under the bus and made ample but they absolutely were not fair to the victims and their families and so for staff sergeant bales whatever his trial is for it to be really fair to the afghan people most truly take their lives in consideration and bring true justice to them which would really be you know a life sentence for this soldier so we want to talk about fear we have to talk about the fairness for the afghan people who are now mourning the loss of their family and the interesting thing is you know we hear the name stuff sergeant bales quite a bit we're not really hearing the names of his victims of the children who are going to see their parents again of the people he killed in their beds in the middle of the night and so i say that fair trial should be fair for the afghan people who are the real victims. it's good to have you with us here in austin it's a day of education health and a place to live all considered basic rights by democracies around the world but it

seems that not everyone in the u.k. is entitled to them europe's she one rights watchdog this means during it on britain's first treatment of gypsy and travel to communities citing the fictions of dozens of families from fatherlands last october he thought about it reports on this. sophie is a victim of racism she's training to be a barrister but as an english gypsy she's frequently turned away from was refusing to serve travellers two thousand and twelve two thousand evan this is happening really every day really discriminating against a race a culture that has a minority that has done. nothing wrong i would say it was racism because you know for example if. another ethnic minority went to harvard. and i said i'm sorry you can't come in here because of who you are absolutely outcry severe blames the media the only coverage gypsies get in britain ridicules

their culture despite complaints of racism this was deemed suitable advertising no wonder when public opinion so overwhelmingly hostile to your well. wife or dear to you made your wiring in or out the full story for a very good living yeah i feel sorry for the pain that they reject thought of it that way and is that all that they they were there and they try to start fights and also it's really sad they're just this is the paper when i piece of garbage and it's just all the things you hear about enrile but others are now listening to human rights watchdog slammed the british government for discriminating against gypsies and travellers just in travelers need to access to. their rights to a home and to a private family life respected and that is what isn't presently not respected in this country. dale farm used to be the largest concentration of travelers in the

u.k. housing over a thousand people but then the bailiffs came october's a vixen the violent end to a decade long legal battle that's left fifty families homeless. critics say could have been averted had the government provided enough legal caravan sites in the first place one square miles all that's needed to house the four thousand gypsies with nowhere legal to live in the u.k. right now but local authorities are refusing to give up land pledging housing instead it's a matter for them there is a roof over their heads but arkansas if i wish to i can't force them to buy the obvious that they wish to carry on living is very well outside of the law but i'm out of work. a roof yes but simply not an option for a centuries old nomadic culture that's why many farm prefer to live outside of the law they say discriminates against them with problems who are left are allowed to

stay so long as they stay within lee's walls that's the legal plot that's left here wants that is still quite big it's not big enough for everyone according to the local authority anyone outside of that lot so all these caravans is in breach of planning regulations pursuing yet another court order to have all of these people removed travelers and gypsies are one of the most vulnerable groups in britain they have the lowest life expectancy and education levels of any ethnic minority but at the moment they are getting the least help i've been it r t london. before we go to the market update for this are here are some other international headlines in brief we'll start with france for the r.t. world update across being accused of intelligence failures with calls to investigate why are self styled islamist jihadist was allowed to kill seven in toulouse mohamed merah was being tracked for months and had even been on the us no fly list he was killed by a police sniper on thursday following

years and she died at the age of forty eight on the eve of the grammy awards. florida straight over to reality business does go with crazy heart there i know you're watching the numbers all across the border also looking today i know yesterday was all about road well you know bought it it's an interesting thing as you go because exactly the same thing as happened as to what happened yesterday so the first part of the day we saw a lot of green hours a positive result but right now by the russian. market supplemented into the red we're going to kick off. oil it's very pounding from the lowest close in a week and now that song concern supplies may tighten on persisting tensions and it was drawn out the international energy agency says it's not going to reduce emergency crews stockpiles despite those. grades that we thing just now on the screen we had on to europe as i just mentioned in the last few minutes or so they've just gone right into negative territory so they are now heading for

a weekly loss of more than that to his stance now investors in the region are awaiting us. at the moment if we move on to the current says we'll see how the euro dollar is getting on and it's still high over there has indeed dropped for the ruble it's hard it's us. against the euro at this hour really look at the russian markets as i mentioned earlier to have a draw to now this is a seventh day of losses as you can see just on the screen and the my stakes are indeed down this hour and this is the biggest losing streak in its seven months and that is largely because of oil and rattles are declining because of manufacturing acting in europe and china if we get on to the stocks recently gas problems just get into the red they're planning to drive millions of tons of liquefied gas from a new field offshore and it is for a.o.l.

as well is that because financials are managing to hold on to their gains is still up. many grafters it will be possible. cut the stakes in the us in that bank but i think it's going to take about four years' time because of all the legal. that they have to. legalize they said now we've also got. still holding on to right now i'm going to talk about the fact that i may see my campaign has picked up it's encouraging a russians to buy anything that's great marina calls for reports on how a few thousand variables can make a multi billion. normal is when russian companies and officials encourage their country men to buy it locally made produce abnormal is what russians encouraged to buy foreign goods spend their summer holidays abroad and invest there as well these are dire economic times for the eurozone and a couple of russian organizations specialize in international humanitarian

cooperation decided to extend greece now open hand we call our population to show solidarity with greek people and greek products and i hope it will help the greek economy and will give the opportunity to have more expert products for us it's not governmental organizations who are in jewel if in other countries there are such communities. going is a sions the should support greece which is in a difficult economic and social situation russia has over one hundred fifty thousand greek people living here and it's not them who are being targeted in this initiative it's russians so what are these organizations want locals to buy in can't really make a big difference here we have arts and such as. all of oil as well as

war and all this is worth around one hundred euros you know guys ations promoting the buy going to this sort of play with everyone. and spends the same amount on group produce this year it will give the country an additional fifty. neuros now one hundred euros might seem like a lot of money but that's not the case for some of those are high end supermarkets like this one the organizations also want russians to go to greece on holiday and even buy houses there which they claim are at record low prices the reaction from the public has been mixed some people on twitter have applauded the initiative saying this is very creative and have encouraged their friends to join in others ask why the helping hand this is limited to greece and what about fine spanish real hard or portuguese salted caught the people behind the initiative are under no illusions it will be an unfettered success but they say every little helps so why not indulge in some greek delicacies marina costs are of our business r.t.

. business is now obvious back about fifty five minutes here in our time and i'm. more used today violence is once again.
