syria the country's deputy foreign minister. we're joined today by ferry is that foreign minister thank you very much for joining us despite all the efforts safe to put an end to it the violence in syria is continuing and things to be increasing why is the syrian government been unable to put an end to this well actually it is the very strong desire and determination of the syrian government from the very beginning to put an end to violence but. the ball is not in the court of the syrian government or of the syrian people it is in the court of those who do not want to see these and stop it it's the insecurity in serbia but particularly those who are calling on lives living every now and then for arming the armed even enough

for all resources from the smuggling of arms and weapons into this sort of totally from the neighboring countries and also financially. and forcefully which is very unfortunate is distorting the picture of the reality of what is really happening in syria and hence comes to the if we say which is now the talk of the moment about the plan and on a plan calls for ending of violence which is true also for six a point but again at the same time it calls for commitments by the neighboring countries by those who are supporting that from the part of the syrian government why are the violations of the peace plan still happening and there is

actually what you have said is that this. supervision mission of the united nations especially the chairman of the president of the mission has clearly said that the syrian government and also it is have really cooperated with the mission. facilitated their entry and facilitated their movement as well. also it is. he said also that yes the government and or so it is have always drawn the vehicles from heavy vehicles or from the centers of the town which means that they serve in government did cooperate and this is a fact in your facts on the ground that i did not hear from the commission any statements saying that the serbian government has violated on the contrary what i

heard from them and i read and hopefully or have read from them that up till now all three thousand five hundred violations by the armed groups have been committed they are great fun hits a level that could fit into them so just talking from the side of the government's . part in this peace process now that the un are trying to implement in syria i mean in some of the areas we visited like it lead both sides a very clearly breaching the cease fire that they're trying to put in place they're not really even be as drew your attention to. this statement by the commission and the by the mob himself that yes the government and there are so it is are being provoked by the. armed

groups and the way in big asset it is do any action it is only in self-defense. now also there have been some. state many some some declarations by. the human rights council and the human rights commission. admitting themselves that they have been misled by the opposition to say what they said the foreign interference can only go say far to explaining the instability what part do you think the syrian government the regime has to blame for what's happened what's happening now well i cannot say to blame the serbian government or not to blame the serbian government but our people have decided that there is no way.

there is no way but a peaceful solution a peaceful dialogue. a peaceful solution and settlement to this crisis and no way but if you follow the huge well planned. sanctions against the people. which is affecting now its impact is on every family on every. one one can ask why these sanctions are you punishing and sanctioning the people themselves lebanon's being seen to be dragged into this area and unrest at the moment how hard is it for the government the syrian government with this crisis spreading over now and some of these neighboring countries well it is no secret now neither to the lebanese nor the syrians nor to the word. the nothern part of lebanon which is

tripoli and the region have become or they have been trying to make it the center for insurgents to come in with a certain to retreat to create chaos create provocative and it has become it which is against the interest of the lebanese people themselves. the vast that has been loaded with. different types of weapons highly sophisticated weapons smuggled into eleven on that have been arrested by the lebanese government and gives a clue of why and to whom it was sent from this is a big big danger at a time at a time the european navy are patrolling.

the eastern coast of the mediterranean. didn't they see it didn't they follow it didn't they know what is in it did they facilitate i want to talk to you about three you were saying it's been so hard throughout the quite system really get a grasp with so many claims and counterclaims from both sides about what's really happening from the very beginning the syrian government said that this is terrorist groups and armed gangs operating in the country. before you went to the. people who oppose the regime fit into this the big protests that we've seen happening in aleppo university students small villages unarmed civilian people well if you know. from the very beginning there were some general demonstrators

who wanted some legitimate demands by the government yes yes these their demands are quite. legitimate under started to do something then they started saying that it is peaceful demonstrations but that as a matter of fact it was not. under the government under us that it is. started to say these are not peaceful they are provoking they are killing the people they are kidnapping and nobody believed under when the government started. the truce or started to be revealed it's only recently they said yes there are armed groups. now as they said and that only recently now they said there are terrorist groups

they are two of us to groups where do you think the final responsibility for what is happening in syria right now life he should take responsibility the final responsibility not you. i'm sure that's me but i would ask i will answer this in two where is there are two proverbs that say. if you will deceive me once shame on you but if you deceive me twice shame on me now the deceit was there from the very beginning of what was called the. arab spring but everybody saw and witnessed what has

happened in libya egypt jordan etc. and what is the present situation now the other one there is a proverb that says when you accuse others and the point your finger is accusing others just remember sri fingers of accusations are very active against you. so for us and for new job the rates of. the rates of leukemia for example a thirty eight times we expect. breast cancers more than ten times told cancers fourteen times i would forget the exact details but the few numbers

there is no nothing that you have ever found in any epidemiological study anywhere ever there is a way that brings victory. to its creator. he's not alone some are more severe than others we have something that is born without skulls without or the least and sometimes with their legs totally twisted but means death to those who it's pointed cut back now. owns to those who choose this window. and that celebrates it and they don't realize that stand looking at their own future cancer alarms this is just. so sides. i have. leakage and i show you to the extent how much i have leakage.

here the reindeer isn't everything for the herders and when it suffers people do their best to help go a. lot. but the distances are. and the roads are tough and unpredictable. well the roman a b. and try.

to. good luck. to building a new most sophisticated. in about anything mission to teach creation why it should care about humans. this is why you should care

thank you very much kerry welcome to the world of sports here is what's coming up. the name game of russian manager dick advocaat announces his final twenty three man squad for euro two thousand and twelve following a friendly match with your ago i here in moscow. i think his performance michael schumacher records the fastest qualifying time for this weekend's monaco grand prix little stuff and six following a great penalty. the only all faith outing makes these adrenaline junkies as the new craze of rope jumping hits russia. but first let's start with the news that dick advocaat has named his twenty three man russia squad that will go to next month's euro two thousand and twelve championships the names are veiled following a friendly match with your require here in moscow we should be important reports

with just one name needing to be cut from the squad it was expected to be a straight fight between. among them it does do it for the final seeds on the plains of bare walls whole base oh well if you are expecting both not so many kids and the kid you'll know bumpkin who's never really been full job as a potential russian international could make the final twenty three this is going right back was called up after roman shishkin investigators weeks be looking to withdraw to teach a seven defenders to the euros would have been a massive risk but of alexander and you called got injured all suspended there would be no natural replacement in the squads meanwhile rusher were also in action on the field on the night as they played their first a free friendlies in preparation for the euros against europe why there's a last chance russia's fans will get to see that same before they have to switzerland continue their preparations for euro two thousand and twelve championships i'm apparently in for a real three tonight was up by a euro. why size imagine. how much is mine i've got his first start for his country

and almost six years in the sporting lisbon winger was by far the best russian player on the pitch in the first half making numerous clever runs and flicks it was just a shame as teammates weren't always on the same wavelength. all in all russia were disappointing in the first half creating little and looked nervous at times a year ago i would dominating possession and they would take the lead just after the half time break no one bovary to close down lewis why it is unbelievable striker did the rest russia's response was instant as alexander cares a cough had only been on the pitch for four minutes made the most of the defensive mix up and the home side would control the rest of again putting in a much improved performance and they could have even got a morale boosting victory i don't insure all cove and kids because of not spurned chances. now it was so good moments in the first of the day control more or less the game but again don't underestimate the quality of the

team everything went a little bit quicker easier. but i think for the moment that we start the second of we were controlling. and i think the. result the players were given a well deserved break on saturday they will have one more training session on sunday before departing to switzerland to continue their euro two thousand and twelve preparations which are basically totty moscow. while russia were the only european team in action this weekend with the tournament starting in less than two weeks time preparations are entering a crucial stage england made a winning start on their manager roy hodgson norway one nearly north. combining with andy carroll in the first ten minutes to score the games i really go it was the first time england have beaten no way in thirty two years and despite it being an experimental line up fourteen was delighted with the winning start.

team which was missing a lot of quite famous names the team with players who haven't played together you know carroll young and you knew combination. so i would say that i took a lot from this game because we played against a quality opponent. meanwhile defending world and european champions spain were comfortable to know when. it was depleted squad named by vicente del bosque a with many players missing because of friday's copa del rey final two and scored the no on his debut before malaga santi cazorla converted a penalty for to no spain to begin the defense of the trophy on june tenth against italy. elsewhere the netherlands fell to a surprise to face against belgariad they went down to one hundred by taking the lead on the stroke of half time thanks to robin van persie this his twenty six goal

for his country and a villain pop off penalty made it one one shortly after the break before the visitors stunned the world cup finalists with a winner in injury time ileana mccann ski with the final goal despite the result than a more weeks man will travel to poland and ukraine as one of the favorites for euro two thousand and twelve. meanwhile spot at moscow's aiden mcgeady helped the republic of ireland to a one zero win over bosnia the twenty six year old was a constant menace for the visitors after being introduced to half time and it was the man of the match is cross that books about the winner shane long nottingham seventy seven minutes aim to ensure giovanni trapattoni side and i want basin and thirty games this. well mcgeady meanwhile wasn't on hand to attend the end of season russian premier league awards ceremony the irishman one of thirty three players named in the best squad but it was any midfield ego dennis off who received the biggest prize his rival from the capital to number attacker alexander cochrane

was recognised meanwhile with the best new player award it wasn't a surprise that the other main awards were given to russian champions as an eight as mentioned midfielder any soft top vote for the best player of the campaign another central midfielder from the club should a cough was named the most effective player nicklaus number of belgium the best foreign player while another player from the st petersburg side preciousness modifier accepted the award for best goalkeeper. now to the hardwood where in the n.b.a. boston through to the eastern conference finals following a narrow four three win in their semifinal series with philadelphia the celtics won game seven eighty five seventy five at home rajon rondo and kevin garnett joined top scorers with eighteen point eight boston will take on miami in the finals the best of seven series starts on monday. now in formula one michael schumacher has shown he's not lost any of his magic which earned him seven world titles the forty

three year old was quickest in qualification for the monaco grand prix but an early indiscretion pushed him back to a sixth place grid stuff for sunday's race while hollywood royalty were on hand to witness saturday's action packed qualification in the principality will smith's a schumacher five spot penalty for colliding with williams driver bruno senna at the previous race in spain second place mark webber the beneficiary of that punishment the red bull driver now one pole and looking to claim his second monaco win in three years his mercedes team mate nico rosberg was up to second place with lewis hamilton all russians because petro will stop back and nineteenth place. and finally now we've had skydiving and bungee jumping but now we can add rope jumping to the list of extreme sports cars and people top off as more on the adrenaline filled activity which is taking russia by storm. it's not the most common sight in moscow to witness hundreds of young people flocking to cinema to

what you feel other than a hollywood blockbuster but that's what happened when an extreme sports film about guys who turned their hobby into a profession was screened last week and i came across the board and it's all for me rope jumping is not only about the jumps themselves but the more challenging a jump and a location the more reward you are and that's my motivation for the film was a very ambitious project it took us two years to shoot it and there was a lot of effort from everyone who took part. i am. old it's needed just a rope and a breach high enough to jump from sound simple and pretty straightforward but the more simple means the more dangerous no wonder the sport is so popular in the

country that founded the russian roulette that stunned. the last. row jumping was invented by american mountaineer dan always a man who tried to beat his fear of falling down so he started to jump with the rope to face his fear unfortunately the founding father died in an accident during one of his jumps but the sport had invented lives on. despite being invented in the u.s. russia the translators in the sport those in the know here say you just have to trust the bridge the rope and the knot and then take a step into then the trick is to jump so as to swing underneath the bridge. you know push you. during the first jumps people just don't realize what happens during the jump they're remember taking their first step and then hanging on the rope the more experience you get the more pleasure you get from it but the fear stays with you it just transforms a little shell which seemed at first the feelings were extremely sharp the

adrenaline was blowing my mind now i'm not getting as much adrenaline as i used to but i can to lead my new locations and value the moment russia is simply not big enough for these dead devils who travel to poland in the french alps to improve their highlight reel the fast growing sport is also attracting more and more people involved with snowboarding in mountaineering in particular the message clear those needing an adrenalin here will always find a new way to get it. or to. while that is all the sport for now i'll be back with more in a little under two hours time see that. there hasn't been anything yet on t.v. . it is to get the maximum political impact.
