never treaty back to the peace initiative. everybody in washington wants regime change everybody in europe and as well as the gulf countries and so but i'm on plan was always condemned from the very start they never gave it a chance they never worked or did anything to try to see to its realisation they never ever put any pressure on their so-called friends in the syrian opposition and instead in fact arm to the syrian opposition and increase the violence and increase the bloodshed so it is quite rich now that they will without any evidence at all and while an investigation is ongoing automatically condemn the syrian government for what is a war this is a civil war you know the the western reaction and provocation of everything that's going on in syria is just the same old story over and over again they will not stop until they have regime change and so they do not want peace they do not want the annan plan to succeed and we know that foreign fighters are going in not only weapons from the gulf facilitated by the west but also foreign fighters are growing

and stooping we know that here in lebanon they are fighters being trained in the north and they go across the border frequently to stir up trouble and to create more antagonism between sunni and the other way community and it's just a tragedy that's unfolding and the syrian people are the ones who are suffering about two thousand soldiers and security forces have entered the areas of the lebanese city of tripoli to restore calm after a deadly clashes between pro and to syrian regime gunmen the army was deployed in order to reach an accord on the implementation of security measures of these fourteen people have been killed and dozens injured in the fierce fighting over the weekend lebanon is also thought to be a major arms hobble for the syrian rebels but as maria a few national reports the deadly weapons flow is also a matter of faith. a seller shows off his goods. this is five thousand dollars this is thirteen hundred eighteen hundred and two

him it's not enough as soon as he gets better he returned to syria. ahmed is a sellafield a radical sunni group whose influence in this part of lebanon is growing dramatically there are demonstrations in favor of the syrian uprising a role so part of the support package everything counts. we also need some a fish a calmer bakley one of the founders of the band islamic group suspected of links to international terrorism but he says his input in the syrian revolt in sending the rebels the ideas and encouragement to achieve their ultimate goal would cause the seal of me to make all the overthrow of the government we will make all the schools speak for against the steel armies issues make them all up lies against the c.i. government and other some of fish a can triple the runs this car parts shop and he confirms that every sunni and

especially every salafist here in lebanon is involved either ideologically or financially in what he calls syrian liberation army already helped the tunisian and egyptian revolutions we want syrians now to get rid of this regime shake muslim doesn't wear muslim white robes and keeps his beard secret to every cellophane shot so as not to draw too much attention he says everybody sacrifices something these days just to see their mission and assad free syria completed. an arty reporting from northern lebanon. and a top level top of europe president putin this week patience to let the coffee and un plan come into effect in syria he was speaking ahead of a meeting with top e.u. officials who have now arrived in petersburg and they've got a lot to discuss as irina explain. was it puts in his first stop was in minsk which many saw as an indication that that russia's foreign policy now will focus more on

the closest neighbors and the c.i.s. countries many observers also saw this visit as the beginning of the suppose at the land of economic and eastern bloc now off you went afterwards to berlin on a whirlwind visit which lasted for only half a day was going to put an end german chancellor angela merkel who seemed to see eye to eye on the matters concerning syria now earlier in the week u.s. secretary of state hillary clinton said that russia is aiding to the troubles in syria by continuing to support the regime of president bashar al assad to which of course their action president prepared a response. but usually russia is unilaterally supporting the regime. we have longstanding good relations with syria but we soon become feet if. i agree with. that our common objectives. both russian and german leaders

seem to believe that their coffee on speed planet should be seen to progress to excess fully at the moment it does seem like a strong a by the seemingly unstoppable of fighting on all sides in syria now of course that not all leaders in europe seem to agree with the french president francois along there also earlier in the week did mention that france supports military intervention in the middle eastern country and of course that is something that russia is adamantly against and that was one of the matters discussed by puttin on his last leg of the european tour which took him to paris now of course there is no agreement on the issue of syria among the european leaders among other issues which were also discussed or mentioned to put in a meeting with the french president of course was the issue of defense now russia's russia's adamant. that the plans for creation of the missile defense shield in eastern europe apply and much hailed by nato and the united states as being very

much needed by countries to counteract the supposedly possible strikes from the likes of iran in north korea now these plans worry moscow very much and moscow has been adamant in its demands that nato and its allies present written guarantees that this missile shield will not be used against russia could be surely. in the past we've often been promised you wouldn't expect then we were promised a new two wouldn't put military hold with a new russian but we've seen it expand and its bases spread you know we need guarantees but i'd like to say we're not going to escalate this discussion we've been ready and willing to help ourselves to engage in dialogue it is natural that all of these issues of course will crop up during the russian e.u. summit in st petersburg and although we've probably cannot expect a major breakthrough to be done it is clear that a lot of people lot of observers as well as all of the european leaders involved

are hoping that some sort of movement forward will finally be made at least in some of these topics. around the clock mass protests carry on for the second night in a row in egypt over hosni mubarak sentence the country's also the leader is serving life for complicity in killing off eight hundred fifty protesters during last year's uprising mubarak's two sons and six security officials have been acquitted which also calls a burst of indignation among the people is tom barton is in cairo. hundreds of protesters occupying terrorists where behind me more reporting into the square larger demonstrations of also being called for later in the day this all started yesterday initially with joy the life sentence that was given to former president hosni mubarak but then turned to anger. as a number of security officials in his administration were acquitted of any involvement in the deaths of hundreds of protesters in egypt's revolution last year

eleven hochman it's a verdict has given the police the green light to do whatever they want because they knew they wouldn't be punished we want those who killed our children to get life sentences and hosni mubarak and his interior minister should be executed. can you no doubt this verdict humiliating a years as part of the resolution those who ruined this country escaped justice we know they're going to feel that. tonight to prevent the that's worse than what mohamed morsi the muslim brotherhood can do that in the upcoming second round of a presidential election said that the revolution the started last year in egypt should continue and that if he was elected president he would make sure at least try to get mubarak back on trial and have him executed the top prosecutor in egypt he's going to appeal the acquittals of those top security officials people here who

are really focused on the u.s. today's verdict snow said that that is the sign that the military that the old regime is still in power which is the other candidates in the election he is mubarak's last prime minister a former general he has had offices of his both in the capital and in other towns raided and people say that they really want doubting whether a second round in the election should go ahead after chafee cows said that he wouldn't reinstate the old regime but he's going to have a lot of convincing to do to try and make people believe him due to demonstrations planned in the coming week including a million man march through the capital. arab affairs that journalists nebular and danny says if mohamed morsi is promised to execute mubarak shows that his only intention is to win the election not to build a democratic and for egypt. they are people demonstrating against.

life sentence which is very lenient but it also has to be said there are also commentators and other people who think the key to successful revolution is precisely to do some of the more and indeed trying since an execution. would be a setback to not only egypt's revolution but also to the arab spring in general surely and a key to a successful revolution is not to see america tactics being reproduced in a tree and democracy in egypt but the two candidates who were switched to capitalize and. said that he was very dangerous. because it means that nobody is in mind now this is a man who was a very trying to highlight how troubled he was and his dies a little more. regime of the earlier in his convening that the egyptians are mainly

for the purpose of questioning work. it all began when we started revealing uncomfortable truths about the u.s. government the afghanistan and iraq war logs gave shocking detail about the violent occupation of these countries the scale of civilian deaths on potential war crimes all at the hands of u.s. forces and the swedish arrest warrant wasn't far behind i think this will send a chilling effect to all potential whistleblowers that if they dare challenge the secrecy and indeed in many cases war crimes of the united states they will face retribution that's bad for democracy it's bad for human rights the case is being seen by many as a david and goliath style fight with a stanch taking on not just the legal system but the establishment that seek to silence him and wiki leaks and it's not just the government media that champion the songes of freedom of speech defend spectacularly turned on him in recent times he

injured in a bus crash in northern pakistan around one hundred passengers were on their way home from a wedding ceremony the driver reportedly lost control of the vehicle which rolled several times before landing in a ditch. three people were killed in the eight injured when they had a grenade was detonated in the packed nightclub in serbia the explosion in the eight ball north of the country's capital belgrade went off after a group became angry over being denied entry to the club but two of them were killed in the blast incidents with firearms are relatively calm when in the balkans when many weapons remain in civilian hands after the one nine hundred ninety s. it was. in northern costs of clashes between thirty and protesters and made to lead to peace keeping have left at least six people wounded local third strike to prevent chips from removing barricades set up last year on the border with cost of all the road blocks away in response to an attempt by ethnic albanian authorities

to impose border and custom controls made to dreams they used tear gas and small arms on protesters who responded with stones and hand gunfire and possible reject the area's two thousand and eight declaration of independence from political analyst alexander up of each in belgrade fez the presence of foreign troops only says up more trouble. the nato forces which are being called peacekeepers are actually trying to use force to force the course of the serbs to accept living in independent kosovo which they won't accept and that's the whole root of the problem they've actually per fired live ammunition at people trying to keep the barricades and they're trying to keep the barricades to prevent the calls of all being in regime from priest enough to get a hold of the north northern part of the territory so we've had wounded civilians wounded by so-called peacekeepers using live ammunition against barehanded people on our own people so actually peace is the last thing on their mind unfortunately i

do want to say that this was something at the beginning of june which was to be expected because there is a sort of a power vacuum in belgrade right now we've just had parliamentary and presidential elections but we do not have a functioning government we only have a technical government so actually what's nato and the e.u. and the u.s. are doing they're using the power vacuum in belgrade to try to to establish a new reality on the ground in kosovo. so obvious new president was sworn in on thursday shortly before his inauguration he said his thoughts with us on the situation in casa was north and the other challenges the serbia faces and you can guess the full interview in just over an hour here on ninety up next a recap of our top story. the.
