three. three. three. revolt against libya your for your media trial against the really old guard jeetendra. lead stay away from syria with the do arseholes of the peace plan on the rocks hours ahead of a cease fire that my. syrian rebels refuse the busines demands the guarantees they lay down weapons before the massacre supports its own since more details in just a few moments. also when the deadline to register for a place major presidential race cost about twenty hopefuls have now handed in that make a chance to run for the vacant seat that i also told a reporter. who calls the case of big surprise politically motivated and asked to bring the alleged russian arms dealer after a u.s. court sentenced him to twenty five years in the ancillary to the marriage.

this is all she's a weekly review hello and welcome to the program but as the young banks big plan for syria could been deadlocked hours ahead of a ceasefire that line the rebels have refused to give damascus any guarantees they will lay down arms before the government troops pull back i'll make this correspondent for the syria has the details. c'mon the role of the rebel free syrian army has indicated that he will not give any kind of written guarantees that he plans to mate on arms and this is just hours after the syrians who are inadequate for such explanations what the syrian regime is asking for is confirmation that the rebels will lay down arms before they withdraw their tents and the troops from population centers all this does for

a certain to derail the peace process just two days before the peace plan that was put forward by the former u.n. chief kofi annan goes into effect what we know is that the rebels all saying that they do not recognize the legitimacy of the syrian president bashar assad's regime and as such they will not be giving any kind of guarantees what they want is for the syrian troops to return to their bases and for all security checkpoints to be removed from the streets but what we're hearing from damascus they say that in the last few days there has been an alarming increase environments in numerous syrian cities and it puts the blame for this squarely on the shoulders of the opposition and they say they are continuing to carry out violent acts there are many in international community who fills that what world powers are doing is actually moving the two sides further away from each other we saw recent friends of syria meeting which has effectively now become known as the friends of the syrian

opposition and this whole countries like the united states and its allies as well as simple gulf countries saudi arabia qatar and turkey pledging increased support for the rebel fighters what we've heard from countries like russia is that thoughts from actually helping to resolve the conflict these kinds of sources of support are merely searing of the crisis on the ground we also know that the united nations has threatened to take what it's calling for service states against a masters if it does not with points troops make speaks to. state deadline but certainly increasingly the sense is that many of the international community by meaning they support to the opposition fighters i actually do little to help resolve the syrian conflict. policy or forcing down needle cabinet former syrian ambassador explains why it's vital for damascus to get the guarantees it wants from the rebels syria has learnt a very hard lesson from the arab league observers say the armed gangs.

truly used the existence of god preserve as on the ground. and i could play a fast. and it has cost the syrian army and security forces and innocent civilians hundreds of extra lives there's no one close the same thing to happen again during the existence of any international observers on the ground that arose syria has demanded britain. from maine and lawyers and supporters of the. free syrian army i agree with we need to do for me is right we went through for. civilized. debate on it. because you have been butchering men women and children in syrian cities and towns . the deadline has passed for egypt's presidential hopeful starfish to register for

the call next month about twenty candidates are hoping to fill the shoes of hosni mubarak who was ousted last year their actual commission is expected to announce the full list of approved candidates in the next couple of weeks and she's going to present kyra looking at who's standing for the top job. so you can divide the candidates into essentially three groups the first group are the liberals who are those who have the support of mostly the young educated people then you have the second group who are essentially hailing from the camp of hosni mubarak the ousted president we have his former prime minister running for president as well as i would move former foreign minister in egypt but also as the former head of the arab league is also vying for the top job as well as the former head of the intelligence service of egypt almost the only man and finally you have the third group who probably have the loudest the most rowdy supporters in egypt and there are the

islamist parties the muslim brotherhood who from the get go from the first days of the revolution said that they're not going to put forth a candidate for the presidential race a year later not only do they hold the majority of seats in the parliament but they're also saying they have also submitted applications then there's the style of the party who also have a very staunch very radical islamist person running for it and you finally have a third radical islamist party. which have also put forth their candidate who is actually from traveling in france because according to the french authorities he is a preacher who are inside religious intolerance and hatred the muslim brotherhood have just recently been in washington d.c. insisting that radical islamist groups have been misrepresented that they actually seek nothing more than to install a sharia law in place of the constitutional law some of the things which they have proposed to be put forth in egypt as the law is for example vetting alcohol for everyone including tourists for arresting tourists for wearing to the sort of suits

for segregated schools and making girls go to separate schools for boys and for lowering the age of consent to twelve years of age and whether or not these are the types of laws which those who have been out on the streets of cairo a year ago bringing about the egyptian revolution whether this is exactly what they had in mind when they called for liberty equality and justice of course that remains for the egyptian people to decide. so the muslim brotherhood's influence on egypt's political life could have a negative impact on the country's freelance journalist true there's an. emerging brotherhood should not be in one suit to push social train so i imagine it'll be quite difficult for women and minority groups think using coptic christians who obviously are quite important in this country i think you're missing going to have shown a very strange relationship with the ruling military council and the supreme council the armed forces and i think this is where they may be some issues of the revolutionary groups because they appeared to have been doing deals with the sky

behind closed doors which could basically mean that there isn't revolutionary change this i think will be the worry for the rest of the future of egypt. and there's still a lot more waiting in the program we'll take a look at bahrain where security forces fight here dallas and watermelon against protesters who marched in support of a jailed human rights activist but he say demands case will help push up the government. a retired pharmacist became the most public victim of greece's astaire's he measures this week after the seventy seven year old man shot himself dead in front of parliament elected so side knows that blames the card for destroying his livelihood some two thousand people came to pay their final respects to retrace christoulas on saturday some comparing his death to his service side sparked riots would answer your stereotype protesters clashing with police and throwing petrol bombs officers responded with tear gas greece has been ramping up its spending cuts since twenty tend to secure vital e.u.

bailouts and economic analyst needs trekkers says the consequence he needs a major rethink. at this point inside we have about a third of the population in greece living underneath the poverty line we've got about a million people employed and probably half a million q two really don't we very well at all all we need is something like this to catalyze opinion and send us into deep reflection i think the more austerity cuts and horizontal cuts to pensions public sector wages tax increases are an absolute nightmare it's like putting it on the regs on a very strict diet it's going to backfire what we really need here is more structural reforms some sensible privatizations to clamp down on waste and corruption and actually get the very rich to pay their share as well because at the moment it's the unemployed people it's the pensioners and it's the middle classes

that are suffering while the people that have stashed away close to a trillion overseas have gotten away with it. russia has pledged to bring home big siblings out of the businessman who was sentenced in the u.s. to twenty five years behind bars moscow says that he's the case is political he was found guilty of conspiring to kill americans but maintains his innocence the josh stressed there was no proof they would have committed any crime but with a sting operation that sought out his arrest our season is this a trick. here is spent by the u.s. to hunt down one russian man tens of millions of dollars of taxpayer cash poor into a staging operation snatched up from a third country alleged arms dealer victor boot was handcuffed flown to the u.s. and placed in solitary confinement for months before a trial found him guilty on all four charges one conspiring to kill united states nationals two conspiring to kill united states officers and employees three

identified failure to the plane as the possible primary cause of the tragedy jake agrees reports now from the scene. i heard an explosion and then we got a call and my commander ordered us to go to the scene in these few minutes you realize something was wrong but the magnitude of the situation hadn't quite sunk in among the first firefighters on the scene yuri immediately spotted one of the few survivors the first thing we saw was the plane debris on fire and we started putting the flames out there was this one man standing alone he didn't seem to have a scratch on him and we took him to hospital. but he was shaking he said he was very cool to get on our skins turn the heater on even though it already was on first of all people lost their lives in a tragedy that shocked the country twelve survivors remain in a critical condition the investigation here continues but for brief moment those involved stop their work that's the reeve family members arrive at the crash site

sites where they lost their loved ones for the charts their pay their respects to say a farewell word out still to rule or to contemplate. thrust into grief relatives have been left searching for answers and already some think they know the most probable cause if it's true it's a tragedy that could have been averted. you hear. the queen you know whenever you're flying any time after hostile conditions. very bad weather is very hostile condition and it's incumbent upon way the captain of the aircraft to take. before taking off.

but the investigation is far from over and hasn't reached any binding conclusions black box flight data and a largely intact cockpit may provide. says it was team scoured the flight's final minutes looking for clues relatives of the victims are left recalled to play their last degree c. . security forces in bahrain if i see a gas and water cannon protesters as thousands marched in support of a jailed human rights activist on friday he's serving a life sentence for taking part in last year's anti-government uprising and has been on hunger strike for us here months. the man's case will help put more pressure on the ruling regime in these hunger strikes i think they do contribute there you do achieve their goal because what they do is they will build a real crack pics which are being pursued by the regime in order to clamp down on the protesters of more and more such acts i think call for the exposing the truth

or the truth tactics which the reviews using and what they are that the home stores it puts more pressure on certain western countries or certain european powers in order to change their stance because of the visibly the regime in the focus is all on syria and what's going on in syria poor setting aside by train are we all know the fifth. when does exist we also know what i think this is the main issue here that bahrain is a very close ally odds are the arabian had saudi arabia has one of the allies would be us so when we speak about the blackout being put on the plane i think the last and foremost that this is a saudi arabian wish because a saudi arabians also fear that there might be a domino effect which could happen in the persian gulf beginning from the hurricane and then spreading the spreading to saudi arabia the international community we're still focused on were also i think that all contributes to the anger which we

witnessing the popular anger which in the end i believe in the end goals. and let's take a look at some other stories making headlines around the world a second bomb exploded in central nigeria just a few hours after i literally explosions blew out windows and tore off roofs in the northern city of kaduna killing thirty eight people and injuring many more these are the latest in a series of violent attacks in my most of which have been claimed by the militant group boko. molly's president has officially resigned as part of the deal to end of political crisis in the country the military staged a coup last month and toppled him from power under their grievances mediated by a bloke called west african countries an interim president and transitional government will rule until elections are held there early agreed to step down once the president quits the north or she will have to deal with an uprising in the north where two are right tribes declared in the presence of friday. fourteen people have been injured down fifteen detained as protesters clashed with

against countries are all surely getting themselves into this. relationship. long term relationship in china and they really need to think seriously about it. alcohol abuse has long been a social scourge of the u.k. with a number of deaths from leave a disease growing almost every year the british government now wants to introduce a minimum price for alcohol but will this really fix the problem actually is other than it has. this is your average friday night out in britain it's not yet midnight but many people have already drunk well over the limit of what's considered binge drinking in the now i drink wine.

yeah take pipes yeah. maybe a couple shots. maybe if they succeed it's this kind of heavy drinking that's being blamed for the soaring numbers of deaths from liver disease in the u.k. eleven in the heart thousand people die each year from the disease twenty five percent more than just a decade ago according to medical data most of those deaths down to alcohol abuse so how much is too much the recommended daily limit is four units of alcohol so around two points of being but even if you drink. nights so points and. binge drinking according to experts seriously damaging your health but even lease is nothing compared to what many get free come last orders.

from coke an amount six times more than what's considered safe by alcohol by screwfix well there is a very great need to address the alcohol misuse issue in the united kingdom the short and long term side of his on the short term you know the issues around getting weight getting in trouble potentially putting yourself at physical risk or you know violence or something along those lines those are all short term issues that need to be addressed then you have the longer term health issues which are issues around heart disease cancer liver disease the government blamed supermarkets for selling booze rock bottom prices just twenty. pounds can buy you as many as forty cans of strong cider it now wants to ban these multi by discounts and impose a minimum price of forty pence per unit it will force supermarkets to effectively double their prices on the cheapest drinks but the industry's adamant it's not cost that's causing the trouble the heaviest drinkers tickle drink problematic levels of

alcohol a least likely to be deterred from drinking but price rises in front a minimum unit price would do is raise the price for millions of ordinary consumers live there is a section of society likely to be harvested it's the ports the lowest income so seems very unfair on a policy that's not actually going to be successful in tackling the problem drinkers at the moment that falls to the police that punch drunk punch ups a familiar sight come closing time the government claims ending bargain boozing will instantly cut crime and messily reduce alcohol related deaths but with the bulk of binge drinkers already paying over the proposed minimum it's clearly not the term for the bar them from having another destructive nights on the tiles either bennett's party. paralyzing is the start of up with a recap of the headlines in just a couple of moments and right after that stay with us.
