five am in moscow i match reza good to have you with us here on our team our top story u.n. security council's voted to send observers to syria to oversee the country's fragile cease fire first monitors said to arrive tomorrow as reports of. reports emerge of fresh clashes russia's demanded our version of a revision rather of the original u.s. draft to hold all sides in the conflict accountable for any of uses or she's a very important as the latest. security council is cautiously optimistic and quite proud of itself that it's finally able to speak with one voice reach a consensus the first resolution now unanimously adopted on syria it calls for monitors and runners up to team of thirty going to syria immediately to observe

this ceasefire the fragile cease fire in place there or to the 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 in syria including the opposition to immediately seize all armed violence in all its forms this is what was a 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 to the un 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 is 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 the russian ambassador said that moscow from the very beginning has been supportive of mr a knowledge of peace plan and is only he said through an objective balanced approach that the security council was able to reach a consensus on saturday but. the truth. is draft resolution has been significant. legacies of. your mission and 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 this 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 is 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 acuity council is asking further measures can be taken what those further measures are or is not clear yet i think at this point all security council members are hoping that the armed opposition group in the syrian government do comply with what's being asked and peace is finally established in syria but at a level as chris bambery from the international socialist group the opposition will be able to stick to its part of u.n. backed. it's a fragile cease thought but it does seem to we want to. become a country and it would seem to me there is

a possibility old peace that was always civil war inside syria not should be welcomed but is the free syrian army the syrian national council capable of getting the same of the different groups inside syria for we don't know our own because the opposition is not for you to find body in terms of back i don't think i thought i had any option but to go along with this and also have the moment is coming in from or i have to flee even those who monitor this even two hundred fifty monitors there is a big country covering a huge space it will be very difficult for these monitors that with us what is going on only people protecting it but i think fingers crossed this could come all . looking like a very unpleasant civil war developing inside inside syria long awaited talks between six world powers and iran on iran's nuclear program have wrapped up in istanbul and you foreign policy chief catherine ashton welcomed the negotiations as

constructive with the size agreeing to meet again next month in iraq discussions resumed after a fifteen month hiatus with the previous round ending in stalemate parties are trying to find measures to build mutual confidence over to iran's nuclear ambitions iran which insists its nuclear program is entirely peaceful has recently increased uranium enrichment despite international fears it could be trying to make a nuclear bomb washington's described talks as the last chance for the pharmacy to work in israel's threatening military action iran's willingness to talk is surprising under the circumstances according to political science professor fawaz azadi from the university of tehran. there's a long list of things that iran is unhappy about and unhappy about killing five iranian nuclear scientist in the last couple of the. increased sanctions against. ordinary people in iran sanctioning. commodities like castle being unhappy about sanctioning the central bank which is basically iranian central bank which is

basically the very country trades of its international companies in fact it's somewhat surprising that the iranian government officials go to these meetings and basically to the other side which is more or less repeating the same demands that are. not really acceptable to the iranian side asking iran through. its nuclear program and when the iran asks why do you want us to do that they say that we think you are making a nuclear bomb and at the same time we hear from the intelligence agencies of these countries united states or even israel that iran is not a person in your nuclear program so there's a lot of contradictory signals that are coming from the other side and that is making the situation somewhat confusing. well stay with us here on archy's still to come age old solutions to the current debt crisis u.k. treasury plans to issue a never ending bonds glassine after the first world war saddling generations to

every year thousands of immigrants from mexico and latin america try to cross illegally into the u.s. american authorities have beefed up security along the border with mexico but it's not stopping the flow of migrants and as ramon bill into reports the border has become off destination for many. 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 dr headspaces 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 not 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 this is 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 some arrives he expects they will need it again the department of homeland security recently boasted about the sharp drop in border patrol rest suggesting the government's crackdown has helped curb illegal immigration the migrant best ever made consistently high so if the border is absolutely deadly more than six thousand have died along the us mexico border since one thousand nine hundred ninety four according to human rights groups that's when

operation gatekeeper program for defined international crossing with high priced benzene thousands of agents and high tech surveillance was launched border agents call this area below us there are being a place where migrants commonly try to us. all the while to get inside the u.s. for the scores we try to make a crossing here there are many others who choose a much more treacherous and sometimes deadly route into the u.s. policymakers start pushing the immigrant flow to the deserts which are migration instead it has led to what some call but death trap internationally migration is. there's attempts to control migration through the same tactics the militarization through building walls and we see them in various places them in india and pakistan in palestine israel. you know disastrous wall attempts in germany

many remains found in the desert. it's making them difficult like the air force in 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 no litter izing border does not control migration well politicians argue over who can spend the most money to fortify the border hundreds more john and jane do they face in the american dream well and here at the pima county morgue in tucson arizona remember lindo archie. ukase massive deficit continues to balloon in britain this treasury is looking at ways to tackle it latest plan involves extending the repayment period so far off in fact that virtually no one alive today will be around to see the debt cleared britain is in fact still repaying money owed over the cost of the first world war

and critics say the latest plan or critics of the latest plan say it dumps debt on future generations saddling them with an unmanageable burden artie's over bennett has more from london. 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 a never ending loans dumping the government's crippling debt on to future generations it'll still be borrowing money 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 every state there are elements of a period 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 because it is a good time to issue them i mean it's not a good time to buy the would be buyers of the taxpayers themselves shouldering the government's rasta one trillion pound debt pile by lending it money also on offer a bond settlement sure 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 had invested one hundred pounds back in nineteen twelve at a rate of three point four percent say then 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 inflation which would have seen one hundred pounds balloon into almost nine thousand so you 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 you know this is what happens in markets when

governments and the risks are enormous you know the risks of buying a one hundred year. gilt from the u.k. government are historical evidence given inflation patterns in the past would suggest that. anything close to current yield you would lose money on the last time britain issued neverending loans was off the world war one a massive deficit still burning a hole in the taxpayers pockets even today and now this government's doing the same offloading it so mountain of things to be someone else's problem rather than its. on the. internet and smartphones mean we're forever texting tweeting are creating or downloading but there's a world that's increasingly high tech mean we're getting more and more lowbrow artie's resident in new york investigates which side of the net could be winning.

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 and people see it on the internet they think it must be true oh i hope. we all reply a teacher's so we used to have children. i mean pupils at school sometimes say they're only copied on the internet the subject they had to to do for law and and sometimes they copy stuff that's just not true because the internet is

and always right right right we don't look for it and the larrys. 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. of the word or a truth worth reading you don't need all the. 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 you know i think every generation stories there are always been people who didn't like to read this in can make a smarter or dumber it depends kawi group you take it what do you think the youth of today is doing with that. i thin hundred million years in use it as a game to play and they really need to use the old advantages do you tax to do you taxed you or y. o. u.

for the word you guessed you like i shorten everything yes lad roommate me dumber in school too. ok you read me in school you didn't hear that spelling as well as you say now doesn't it scare you that that's the world that we're living in yeah i kind of were young so we don't we don't think about it whether or not you 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 soon. turning now to some other stories making headlines across the globe sudanese jets have bombed strategic targets in south sudan killing at least five people so she escalated after southern forces seized the town of hagar league which is responsible for how often sudan's oil production un once forces from both sides to
