you wouldn't want to come thirty three children among the dead in the western syrian town of houla where activists claim government troops have massacred more than ninety people. prime minister dmitry medvedev take the reins of power at the united russia party promising to repeal the country's biggest political force and get rid of all the people that discredited. and destroying dissent and with elections ahead of the georgia regime that still got no appetite for poll opposition a year after violently disbursing independence day rallies. it's two o'clock here in moscow you're watching r t you with me to bomb would say let's

take a look at the stories first u.n. monitors confirmed tanks and heavy machine guns have been used to pound the was a syrian town of houla where activists say more than one thousand people have been killed by government forces this week and a u.n. report accused both the regime and the rebels of gross human rights violations in front of the friends of syria group or that team to remove president assad and france your position condemned the violence and called an urgent meeting there are also reports that the free syrian army is now refusing to abide by the your employer's plan sara furthur who's been covering events in syria for some time now says politics has to go on the back burner and people are losing their lives day. is just absolutely devastating tragedy for those people confirmed killed for children there is no ceasefire to oversee it simply doesn't exist this crisis that is just becoming increasingly militarized and having this devastatingly high death toll. and so we actually spoke to that to foreign minister in syria he was in

moscow just the other day i always tell him where the final responsibility lies what's happening in the country right now the ball is not in the court of the serbian government or of the syrian people it is in the court of those who do not want to see peace and stability and security in serbia particularly those who are calling and declaring every now and then for arming the armed groups for. smuggling of arms and weapons into the syrian target from neighboring countries is also financing these armed groups there is a proverb that says when you accuse others and the point your finger is accusing others just remember. accusation. you see the rhetoric right from the beginning of again the u.n.

monitors being there has been now before the plans even reach this three month deadline that it's a failure well ok but it's one thing to say terminologies but what is what's the alternative you know constantly giving these problems without any other solution is only going to lead to further violence and you see in some of the western countries again continuing right through this peace plan calling for the arming of the opposition we know the answer traveling into the country you know all of this is undermining massively the u.n. attends to implement a cease fire which is so important that you know that they're able to continue that work and get that done and i think it's very important to remember you know politics aside in this the human cost of this conflict is devastating and if the u.n. mission that is going to get it. from it is. the security council going to intervene and protection that is not going to even attempt to abide by this this is funny to

. be concerning because you sort of seeing this this peace plan on mumbling and. we've heard from many many people this is the only viable option right now for ending the situation peacefully without further deaths i mean it's not an easy process and whilst we were there with the u.n. observers here we traveled with him to some of the very very fierce fighting areas . and i could at the time in my civil war and i was very very wary of it in his words that it really is that extreme political analyst abraham believes the houla massacre is like to have to have been orchestrated by the rebels. that's the armed gangs behind that and the reason i say that is because these three massacres took place in the context of a broad attack against army roadblocks and security stations throughout the area they also attacked the national hospital in the region and they set fire to

the national hospital and then they turned to that civilian houses and some of the neighboring villages and they started killing and the scum in monthly and some of those killed some of the families killed were known for the loyalty to the syrian regime and to bashar al assad these people do not want to see a political solution instead they want to see an armed intervention and closure national foreign intervention and syria under the pretext of massacres i think the political timing is always very suspicious it would not make sense for the syrian army to commit these massacres and withdraw and then just let the rebels come and take photos and make documentaries about them and these crimes were committed by the armed gangs that are supported from abroad from the g.c.c.

countries and from the nato specifically through turkey prime minister dmitry medvedev has been appointed the chairman of the country's ruling united russia party is modernization montra is already in evidence as he vowed a major overhaul at the top as well as the whole primaries there to increase democratic competition within the party. explains what to expect from united russia's new leader. first and foremost he did say that the party is in need of some off some over holy writ to be more modernized he did a call on the party members to be more active only internet she said that track to more young voters and younger members of the party is crucial to the party's development he also proposed primaries in order to create a greater competition within the party ranks he did say that the ruling posted in the party should be harder to acquire and basically she did outline some of the

major areas where in order to progress not stand still she did say that there is a competition that the united russia is facing at the moment and they should be able to handle the competition to not be pretty pretty pretty simple because after all it is in the in the disputes and in conversations where the truth is being born basically he did outline and not particularly in any detail of his plan for the party but it does look like he is set on moving it forward he's also the first prime minister to actually belong to a party by him it was and wasn't a member of the united russia. it's been a yes since georgian government forces broke up a rally demanding presence really quits and opposition voices us still feeling the full force of suppression the clashes last may saw two people killed as police using water cannons and of a bullets to disperse the crowds dozens were injured and hundreds arrested when officers try to kid away from the country's independence day celebrations will hold problem in presidential elections later in the but as money of the motion the found

out there's little to. of ourselves to study to me one of george's main television channels like slogan proclaims news is made here is the ads from the country's journalists charter complains that sometimes it's literally so and works equally for all georgian major broadcasters i mean yes they do not cover news they make it their in their offices behind closed doors in georgia where there are only three national channels broadcasting news channel one a state ran while the owners of the two others are starting to and in mehdi had close ties with georgian president mikheil saakashvili and his administration they are the main sources of information for the country's almost four point five million population ziad says the news reports of these three air often repeat each other which raises concerns over there it is tauriel independence especially as the

country enters election season five months before parliament voting. they're quite black and white circus really is good opposition is bad but they really touch georgian politics at all when i watch it i have the feeling that there are no problems in georgia and their main mission is to entertain people not to inform them. other channels content is more diversified from the corruption in the country's elite and political prisoners to a controversial purchase by the president's mother of a historic bilton in central but to me for just one larry which is less than one u.s. dollar but these are turning to the media sources can hardly get an audience outside the capital tbilisi was in essence all of the local authorities prevent us from broadcasting in the provinces although we do have a license the people running the biggest company the former minister of defense and the head of the government communications committee who are also co owners of the three biggest channels all of them are friends with the president apart from

financial markets says the authorities practice other kinds of pressure to include in what he says is a feature of any offer tarion regime our journalists have been beaten up their equipment stolen and there's been no investigation do we really have freedom of press if our correspondents every time they go to an opposition rally have to wonder if they're going to be beaten or not irakli and used paper reporter says he has been beaten up twice in the last month by the presidents and interior ministers security for attempting to cover the events with the two top officials where only government approved media were invited. me here very hard and also yelled how did i come here at all but i will be blacklisted and would never find decent work and i think as elections approach such pressure will only get tougher but most of the population here in georgia get this news from spain own the safe and for the

media the press is among the most tightly mourning and there are not to these presidential and parliamentary elections a local independent information means voters will make it a season that is likely far from being informed and according to many often be very . brief washout see really see daughter. when it comes to free speech everywhere else so much of it is down to our rampant take up of social media but later we ask if you're tired of tweets pokes and likes. one reason i think that i'm a decent social media strategy is because i am a little bit sick of it so we have to be really good later we asked residents of the big apple what they think the future holds for popular networks. the i.m.f. chief is shedding no tears for troubled greece and demanding they sort their own problems by paying their taxes christine the goddess says she's got no intention of

softening the country's bailout terms even though a sorry tea and unemployment's led to a rise in suicide seem social and political philosophy. believes austerity will drain greece dry i. think she was honest insurer cynicism that's the cynicism all the ruling labor and global elites but just not telling the truth i think that's a fair comparison between nigeria and greece was totally unjust gris world countries are facing the same right connie and austerity packages the same structural adjustments the same embedded neo liberalism is not that money is going to be taken from greece and given to africa money is going to be taken is going to be what is going to be looted from africa and the majority of the people in greece the tax evasion in greece but the problem is that the people who regularly are hurt taxes and can do it legitimately in greece are mainly those people the social

strata let's check tailored i.m.f. policy that's big business big banks we must say that the terms of the loan agreement imply layering docsis for big business big banks and raising taxes for the average way its owner. let's take a look at the news around the world in brief right now iran's envoy to the twins nuclear agency says evidence of enriched uranium found at an underground bunker with due to a technical glitch officials discovered traces that windrush to twenty seven percent which is higher than previously thought the west as a suspect iran of building nuclear weapons which require you raney and enrich up to ninety percent to run denies the allegations. financial irregularities and internal conflicts at the vatican have been exposed and the pope's butler has been arrested for the leaks police say he was in illegal possession of confidential

and over two thousand five hundred arrests in february city newspaper editor paul things the movement is taking on ever growing insignificance. well i think that the government is trying to make it a lot. to try to keep it as a student issue that it's a student issue led by simply students and. it can be it can be quelled with maybe some simple negotiations but i don't really think that that is exactly the case and i feel that it's an ideological issue it's a movement that has grown beyond the simple fact of what tuition increase and now encompasses many many problems. that are being brought up in the current government . mismanagement of funds corruption within the government itself mismanagement mismanagement of the university system and generally people are really upset and i don't think that this issue or will simply go away and it's not just kick back that's seeing anger growing as we report online the protests will instill in tahrir

you know to you as students pledge to send a shoulder to shoulder with those are rallying in other cities. also at r.t. dot com medals all of this on that they're disillusioned american soldiers a sewing away their military decorations a what and for what they regard and i'm just a little. many muslims living in the united states are getting accustomed to the growing suspicion they get from law enforcement the government as a justification is that it helps prevent terrorist attacks but the muslim community believes it's being unfairly victimize as medina and other reports. testified prepares for his daily prayers fear creeps into the back of his mind as to whether the person next to him is a spy are you you know felt that there was

a sense of mistrust but i wasn't sure about the people that were coming up the mosque if there was somebody new at the mosque that i had never seen i would always feel in the back of my mind you know was this person what are they here for a fight is one of many american muslims who came under the surveillance of the aphelion south in california what he thought was a fellow warship or at a mosque turned out to be an informant the subject of monitoring muslims doesn't exactly come as a surprise to many in the u.s. this is been happening all across the country simply because so many more seem to cross country or getting visited on a regular basis by a p.r. agency for jury joint terrorism task force officers so many are having problems now the consul of american islamic relations in california is suing the agency for what it says is an attempt to incriminate people based simply on their religion that the

muslims are what the african americans were the fifty's sixty's seventy's i think it's a war a religious war i think it's targeting. the sims based on their religion. but really this is a war on islam. and islam craig monte was an aft be an informant sent to infiltrate the muslim community in south in california and he says that while the f.b.i. insist it's acting to defend the u.s. from potential terrorist attacks and slapping suspicion. an entire religious group of people here say americans have their mind sent to mistrust arabs and muslims and it's not simply because of the identification of the nine eleven hijackers but more from a decade of missed him being vilified by hollywood as jihadists islamic extremists and terrorists. but people here believe the problem is

far greater and concerns many minority communities targeted because of their free and fair if nicety. but it's not just about the muslim community because what happens is that our constitutional freedoms start getting weakened for everybody and we're starting to see that more and more because we have allowed this to happen it means for a fod and many others in minority communities nationwide they will be forced to live life looking over their shoulders even in their own country i have to constantly watch myself it's almost like there's you know mental chatter that i have to constantly put myself through whenever i visit or go to the mosque or go to events with the community because you never know somebody that might be listening might be enough yeah i'm format mind you the question archie reporting from los angeles california. now over

a billion people use the likes of facebook and twitter but next we ask if we're all getting a bit wary of being wired. social media websites have been making headlines for years is the craze coming to an end anytime soon this week let's talk about that do you use social media i use to actually just lead to my facebook why am i just getting tired of it says trying to keep up with everyone do you think the world is getting a little bit over social media yeah a lot of it yes because you know when mom start using social media time to go my grandma is actually using it to you know what not because i don't like being tried to like the like putting too much of my bills or information on she's going to post on it looks a photo used to or i love you one provisionals like clinton but the like the products public ones like of in use to be very specific to be their use or what

some of you some people put a little too much information on there i think yet why do we care about what people eat and what they're doing every second every and every meal they you know but it's a good way to keep in touch with people too so what about the phone what about you know going over to your neighbor's thousands a high exactly i think people are getting away from that and it's too easy to just do it all online nowadays i think there's a lot of good uses for there are some uses we found in the school system not so good like what some of the bullying that goes on and i think there's too many young people are kind of think what's a big deal if i give somebody a threat over there where i've. seen police officers get involved with kids who do those kinds of things because it's it's a threat whether it's on facebook or person so do you think that social media is going to change to be a little bit safer or is it just going to get worse i think it needs to change and i think it takes everybody to get more with it to understand it's a actually do social media strategy for a job yet your life depends on social media i'm a little bit i do other things as well but it's one of them yes the use it every

day in your personal life i do one reason i think that i'm even a social media strategy is because i. am a little bit sick of it but we have to be really good right it just seems to be so omnipresent now that i think there's something bigger and greater and better is going to come about. again the second coming is going to come through social media and x. that word has twitter that i need to be part of jesus that's what i'm sure he has what right right right exactly so do you think the social media create is coming to an end why don't you tweet about it and b. if anyone cares. one hundred twenty million fans have been glued to their t.v.'s tonight disease sweden when this is your vision song contest the fall of christie by russia was to be a close behind but not all countries have enjoyed full support at home ukraine has seen divisions over its entry in the final and as a legacy at

a chef ski reports the country song for your rope is stirring an undercurrent of racism. the song be my guest sounds like an invitation singer guy who is representing ukraine at the eurovision song contest says its message is positive that her country opens its arms to any guest but the reaction of ukraine's nationalists that is being performed by a woman with african roots suggests quite the opposite. the jury which decided by turner should go was very biased they didn't let real ukrainian singers go to europe vision like how she sings but now people might get an impression that ukraine is a country somewhere in africa. the daughter of a ukrainian mother and the congolese father may have been hurt by this attitude but still try to play down with a smile i don't like i hate to a season i hate when people. have so much negatively in this.

i hate it when people try to choose you like a friend because you why do you black. this is no isolated racism among ukraine's nationalists over the years they've been making the ideology known in other ways deemed offensive by many from attacking war veterans on victory day last year or cooking eggs and bacon on key visitor no flame which commemorates fall in red army soldiers all the previous actions of ukraine's right wing radicals have been mostly acts of hooliganism they have rarely made headlines especially in the global media but with the euro twenty two well football championship coming to ukraine some pundits in the west believe this is about to change reporter brian flynn from britain sun newspaper disguised himself as a right wing sympathizer to go undercover into a nationalist field cam in western ukraine his food a shows them firing weapons and using explosives this military wing of nationalists

has what it takes to wreck some real haversack flynn believes their destructive skills could be employed. quite soon with football hooligans being among those trained at the camp with the very clear about a number of of things that their ideology sort of points in the direction of one of them is is a belief that there should be no black players playing for european clubs as one of the generals told me it wouldn't it's not fair it should be england against ukraine not ukraine against england and africa wanted to make clear that any fans going to ukraine should should be very careful because clear to me that these are people very serious about what they do they train physically to back it up with violence and i watched what they followed live weapons. the danger of major violence at the football event may still be averted if authorities take action but another great risk looms for ukraine the ruling party is losing ground and september's vote may

bring some of those radicals into parliament. nowadays no one would be surprised to see the nazi salute at folk festivals in western ukraine or nationalist some regional powers and other parts peace can still take action against neo nazis and much of the very same people will have parliamentary immunity and an unlimited past form in parliament to spread their ideas to young people ukraine's right wing nationalist align themselves in glorifying everything ukrainian at the same time they are strongly supportive of their country's european integration but with increasingly vocal zina for big and racist statements it's hard to imagine brussels listening to their opinions on ukraine becoming an e.u. member state should they make it to power. reporting from kiev in ukraine. those are the news still ahead for you is technology update takes you on a progress toward russia silicon valley that's after the headlines don't go away.
