tonight an r t the un security council passes a resolution to send observers to oversee the cease fire in syria which has been hit by further deadly clashes. but run the table after more than a year of silence and suspicion world powers meet with a random discuss its nuclear program which to run insists is peaceful. and loving continuing coverage for most of it it's the most important day in the year for millions of orthodox christians around the world and watching here live pictures of the easter service underway now in moscow's main cathedral pags you can see with a large congregation including russia's leaders there as well it's

a beautiful scene we'll bring you more of it in the next thirty minutes. or. so hello a very good morning from moscow you're watching r.t. live from the russian capital this early easter sunday morning as it is here now just past one am my name is kerry now in the u.n. security council voted unanimously on a resolution to send a team of observers to syria the first monitors are set to arrive in the country on sunday to help oversee the country's fragile cease fire this amid reports of fresh shelling and more bloodshed despite that truce that is miniport lives across the latest events in new york. security council is cautiously optimistic and quite proud of itself that it's finally able to speak with one voice or reach a consensus the first resolution now unanimously adopted on syria it calls for

monitors and is up to team of thirty go into syria immediately to observe this ceasefire the fragile cease fire in place there courting to russian ambassador to the u.n. to tell you one russian officer will be part of the group heading to syria the resolution that was adopted also calls on all parties in syria including the opposition to immediately seize all armed violence in all its forms this is what was the sticking point on friday and why the security council was wasn't able to vote on a resolution friday because according to russia's position the u.s. first drafted resolution made many demands of the syrian government and no explicit demands of the syrian opposition the russian ambassador. vitaly churkin said at this critical junction is very very important for all syrian parties including our opposition to comply with the six point peace plan that was laid out by a u.n.

special envoy kofi annan on this of course also calls for an immediate cease fire and for an inclusive political process in syria in which the opposition groups and the syrian government engage in a dialogue. vassar said that moscow from the very beginning has been supportive of mr anon peace plan and is only he said through an objective balanced approach that the security council with able to reach a consensus on saturday but. even number. is draft resolution has been significant. and since you to see you. observer mission according to this resolution the un secretary-general ban ki moon will have to report back to the security council on april nineteenth regarding how

the resolution is being implemented whether the observers are being granted access throughout syria whether humanitarian officials are being granted access throughout syria if the syrian authorities and the syrian opposition is complying with what the security council's this monitoring mission will eventually grow to a team of two hundred fifty people we should know though that it does say in this resolution the house and there is a vague reference that if syria does not comply with what this a curate council is asking further measures can be taken but those further measures are is not clear yet i think at this point all security council members are hoping that the armed opposition group and the syrian government do comply with what's being asked and peace is finally established in syria. chris bambery spoke to me and the opposition will be able to stick to its part of the u.n. . it's a fragile cease fire but it does seem to hold

a large parts of the country and it would seem to me there is a possibility of peace process or civil war inside a. natural be welcome what is the free syrian army is there a national council capable or. definitely a face of the different groups inside syria for we don't know on because the opposition is not a unified body in terms of that i don't think assad had any option but to along with the last one have been one of those coming in from or how does the even those who want to even two hundred fifty monitors there is a big country they are covering a huge space is very difficult for these monitors that that's what is going on protecting it but i think fingers crossed this could come or we could stall looking like a very unpleasant civil war developing inside. the talks who six major world powers and iran of wrapped up in turkey they were hailed

as constructive by the eve foreign policy chief who said the next round set to take place on may twenty third in baghdad a polisher trying to find ways to remove suspicion the two rounds nuclear programs go to military dimension to it discussions resumed after a fifteen month break with the previous round ending in stalemate ran for its part which insists its nuclear program is purely peaceful has recently increased uranium enrichment of maclean's it could be seeking a nuclear weapon washington's describe these latest talks as the last chance for diplomacy to work with israel threatening military action plans willingness to talk is surprising though under the circumstances says politics professor for desired effect. there's a long list of things that iran is unhappy about and unhappy about the killing of five iranian nuclear scientist in the last couple of the happy about the increased sanctions against ordinary people in iran sanctioning. commodities mike castle

being unhappy about sanctioning the central bank which is basically iranian central bank which is basically the of a country trades of its international companies in fact it's somebody surprising that iranian government officials go to these meetings and basically listen to the other side which is more or less repeating the same demands that are. not really acceptable to the iranian side asking iran to assault its its nuclear program and when iran ask why do you want us to do that they say that they think you are making nuclear bomb and at the same time we hear from the intelligence agencies of these countries united states even israel that iran is not pressuring a nuclear weapon and so there's a lot of contradictory signals coming from the other side and that is making the situation somewhat confusing. all those christians around the world marking the main holiday remembering the resurrection of jesus let's take

a look now what's happening inside russia's main church across to say the cathedral we start our coverage last hour this is more of it on the day before easter holy saturday believers attended morning service after which priests last traditional easter shrewd among the items that painted a cake and occurred spread no naturist which is the name for easter is socially russian. which is blessed as eating then only sicily the morning marking the end of forty days of lent the great lead story in which i suppose christians fasting make special sacrifice church and these pictures coming through why this service started three coverage for an hour and a half ago it sets probably to continue for another three hours russia's leaders of where mr putin is a bit very fancy thousands others in the congregation as well if you want to watch more of this was streaming a live camera feed on our website outside o'connor should listen in for

elections will try to woo voters on sunday but many might find it hard to make their choice and it's not because of the overwhelming numbers it's because a fifth of become that it's a stumping for office despite the jubilee is passed as artie's pretty descriptive. show denise has been a councillor representing one of the wards in india's capital city for five years he's up for reelection this year and says he wants nothing more than to serve his community for being in politics is want social work i'm in it to serve the public because it gives me satisfaction i know their needs but alongside these lofty aspirations are some murky allegations denise has been charged with murder intimidation assaulting a public servant and arms rioting he says he's not guilty of the charges but he's not the only candidate in this year's municipal elections facing serious allegations according to the association for democratic reform about fifteen to

during a year of political turmoil to depose president saleh. the u.k.'s debt is growing steadily now the treasury's looking at drastic measures to try to tackle it suggesting a never ending loans should make every appearance despite the fact that the previous ones issued to cover the cost of the first world war still being slowly repaid today and these new loans will mean future generations inheriting nothing but death that is of a planet reporters. strapped for cash and deep in debt the u.k. government has a plan but buyers beware all's not as it seems chancellor george osborne wants to bring back neverending loans dumping the government's crippling debt on to future generations it'll still be borrowing only this is money george and friends won't have to pay back sounds too good to be true that's because it is i think there are states there are elements of the theory this is a good time for the u.k.

tax by for these to be issued but that begs the question of who would buy it if it's a good time to issue them then it's not a good time to boiling there would be buyers at the taxpayer's themselves shouldering the government's vast one trillion pound debt pile by lending it money also on off a bonds that will mature after one hundred years these workers if the government taking out a very generous mortgage benefiting from its current rock bottom interest rates for another century bad news for whoever is lending the money the only way you could actually make money here is if there was no inflation between now and the year twenty one twelfth a very optimistic outlook take the last hundred years for example if i did bested one hundred pounds back in one nine hundred twelve at a rate of three point four percent say this year it would have turned into almost three thousand pounds sounds ok in itself but it's nothing compared to what i would have got just from inflate said it would have seen one hundred pounds balloon it's

almost nine thousand so he would fall for such a cheap trick well no one of course but that's where the government gets its own investment rules would force pension funds to buy against their will not exactly fair play but this is a monopoly with only one winner so this is what happens. knock it when governments and the risks are enormous you know the risks of buying a one hundred year. gilt from the u.k. government on historical evidence given inflation patterns in the past would suggest that. anything close to current yield level you would lose money on the last time britain issued never-ending loans was after world war one a massive deficit still burning a hole in the taxpayers' pocket even today and now bisque ailments doing the same

offloading its own mountain of debt to be someone else's problem either bennett r.t. london. every year thousands from mexico and latin america try to make it to the u.s. to stop the flow of illegal immigration american authorities have beefed up security along the border with mexico and that is roaming the india of course it's become the final destination for scores of people. the wind blows through the rugged sonora desert in arizona helping shape its rocky valleys and spectacular peaks it's a treasure of the american southwest but this is also a frontier land where a deadly conflict is underway. it's almost a mass disaster situation the disaster which doctor has faces is the growing number of unidentified bodies being found along arizona's southern desert bodies stacked high in a fight for space and perhaps even

a proper burial one day it becomes now so much an effort to determine why that person died becomes an effort to sort out who's who were inside of the pima county cooler at the medical examiner's office which has a capacity to hold hundreds of bodies now this facility is much larger than other places around the country pacifically because of the issue of bodies being found along the border even so lack of storage is a major headache three hundred some remains refrigerated truck parked out here. to help us with overflow as some arrives he expects they will need it again the department of homeland security recently posted about the sharp drop in border patrol rest suggesting the government's crackdown has helped curb illegal immigration the migrant desk i remain consistently high so once again we're importer is absolutely deadly and more than six thousand have that along the us

palestine israel you've seen disastrous wall attempts in germany many remains found in the desert. it's making them difficult to identify or force you know other cases remains of the missing are never found leaving hundreds perhaps thousands of families wondering what happened to their loved ones during the journey north the reality is militarizing borders does not control migration while politicians argue over who can spend the most money to fortify the border hundreds more john and jane day chasing the american dream here people kelly more in tucson arizona remember lindo r t. the state of ok world to less so bass is now the internet and smartphones mean texting or tweeting upgrading or downloading some of us more enthusiastic lee than others but

those a world that's increasingly high tech mean we're getting more and more low bro that's the question resident in new york that investigates which side of the net is winning the race. in this information sharing digital age is it possible we're dumbing down and not intellectually advancing our society this week let's talk about that do you think it's making society smarter or dumber and dumber why is that because people use more stuff to do stupid things smarter. information sharing information immediately which i think is really important but there's a lot of misinformation being shared too and people see it on the internet they think it must be true oh i hope. we all retired teachers so we used to have children. i mean pupils at school sometimes they only copied on the

internet the subjects they had to to do for law and and sometimes they copy stuff that's just not true because the internet doesn't always right right right we don't look for it and they larry's so. i think yes there are some publishers are considering making books digitally that have pictures and animations instead of just words now do you think that that's going to have an effect if it is a. true is worth reading you know. right so why are they doing that because people don't want to read. do you think that's a product of the information and. i think every generation stories there are always been people who didn't like to read that much can make you smarter or dumber it depends call you take it what do you think the youth of today is doing with that.

i think two million years in use it as a gave to play and they're really to use the old advantages do you tax the out yes do you taxed you or y o u for the word you just you like i shorten everything so that will make me dumber in school too. take you with me in school see the spelling as well as you say now doesn't it scare you that that's the world that we're living in yeah. but we're young so we don't think about it but they're not even think this digital age is dumbing down or raising up our society the bottom line is there's probably not much we can do about it anyway because the internet isn't going anywhere anytime. the resident has spoken now as we've been reporting of millions of orthodox

christians celebrating easter with the biggest service taking place right now in the heart of moscow in russia's main cathedral some super pictures and to bring you now these are the latest live shots of the ceremony where the congregation thousands in attendance there including president promised a potent he says the most important holiday of course in the office christian calendar celebrating the resurrection of jesus christ and marking the end of forty days of what we call the great land. has moved from outside the confines of the north. the church of christ the savior here in moscow is really at the heart of russian orthodox services surrounding easter and those services are really designed to be very long but also very beautiful and very ceremonial marking of the various events of christ's death and resurrection there has been all over the russian orthodox faith the easter vigil where priests walk around the church holding candles a very iconic moment in these services and there's also been the holy choir arrive

here at this church and that comes straight from the church of the holy circle in jerusalem it first made that journey in the eleventh century a very important symbolic moment there as well services here going on a week later but in western christianity that's because the russian orthodox church never moved to the gregorian calendar but stayed on the. truly how it's also the end of the great lengths here i mean it's the end of lent in many western churches but the lesson here it's called great plans and it goes on for seven weeks actually very few of the of religious observance managed to get through a lent but really strict observers of the religion do manage to get through all of those weeks and this is the time that they have probably been waiting for because there are a number of special foods associated with this easter celebration in the russian orthodox church one of them cool is

a special cake with raisins in it another is called past which means easter in russian and that's another sweet cake kind of dessert that is eaten at this time and also there is the easter egg the universal symbol of easter and real eggs are painted and also shared around this time and all of them are blessed at this time as well with with holy water by people who want to get them blessed and before they share them amongst family and friends it's a very special time the most important in the russian orthodox church calendar and all around the thirty thousand or so all thoughts churches across the world people will be greeting each other with the traditional preaching christ has risen and everyone else replying indeed he has risen thanks for that these pictures for a few more moments if you're just joining us from are you watching our continuing coverage of this big live event taking place in central moscow tonight pictures
