calls for foreign intervention in syria grow in some western and arab countries china warns against meddling in the conflict saying it would lead to war or also. if someone suggests we go to prison if we don't believe a putin response to opposition leaflets given our jury in the russian reef summit in some petersburg but again stresses there were no political motives behind the jailing of former old tycoon mikhail khodorkovsky. and thousands of canadian students returned to the streets to protest against the rising cost of education fear in their countries copying the us system has landed young americans deep in debt.

a low six pm monday evening here in moscow this is r t my name is kevin now and our top story china's warning that syria faces even more bloodshed if the west helps unleash military intervention and signal that abandoning the u.n. peace plan could push the country into a full scale war voices a growing in some arab and western nations for armed action to force regime change after civilian slaughter in holar but as ask israel for national reports no recent incursion said dangerous precedents. ten days after the terrible massacre in the syrian city of who're the world is still watching to see how this tipping point will shape the crisis while there is still at least some hope of a peaceful solution many analysts believe those hopes are fading fast the american british and french push for military intervention in syria is absolutely

enormous we've seen hague of course william hague the british foreign secretary calling for intervention we've seen the new french president saying the same thing the americans obviously taking the lead the specter of a military solution has returned after the syrian regime was condemned internationally for the deaths of one hundred eight people half of whom were children before an investigation into who was responsible was even launched they're all saying that their side regime is committing human rights abuses and they repeat this message obsessive lee i am confident to predict that indeed it will remain fixed in people's minds and could well be used as a pretext and you don't have to look back to cloud to see where hasty jokingly so a rush to take up arms over the course of a war and see exactly what happened when our division of a massacre which was the village of russia you had a u.n. inquiry that was severely bullied by the u.s. ambassador it was leaving your observation mission on the ground your claims that

it was a program are innocent civilians by government troops serving with blame presented with ultimatum and ramble again and bombed back then the yugoslav and government just like the syrian one now condemned militants for the killings in this case blaming of benon separatists from the kosovo liberation army an investigation was launched to find out whether the victims were innocent civilians as the international community claimed or whether the country's army had been battling professional fighters two out of three forensic inquiries proved. most of the casualties died in combat the third report by an e.u. team has never been made public interesting we know about the then reports of syrian rebels whoever they are liaising with the. think of being in kosovo liberation army people who were basically agents of mido in the course or.

basically training on they were saying they were training in the marsian human rights but definitely the only training that caylee would have ever even anybody is how to figure masculine or stage a war and i believe that's exactly what's happening now. but even with hindsight after the nato bombing of yugoslavia ruling the alliances those tribes in libya last year history isn't been prevented from repeating itself again and again. when these disturbing images from the syrian village of whole are made world headlines everybody agreed those who are guilty must be punished but the reaction from the international community has been so sweet and so called in ated the risk is that punishment will come before even those who are truly responsible are supposed and that could mean not just also of justice but also huge loss of life. refn ocean r.t. most. residents in lebanon's northern city of tripoli have gone on strike him protest

of the deadly clashes between groups linked to the warring factions in neighboring syria thousands of troops have been deployed after more than a dozen civilians were killed there over the weekend as the syrian conflict spreads wider so it will use it for motorists or koosh university believes the growing violence is largely being fueled by a third party. the regional countries are are interfering in syria this easily becomes a regional conflict and it's devastating for lebanon which has suffered enough already so many years of civil war between one hundred seventy five and one thousand nine hundred and now you know the violence is happening on a much more extreme level in the north and the lebanese are getting nervous they don't want to have to live through another civil war and it seems like the international and foreign in the gulf states are only encouraging the lebanese to get more involved and to drag it into a civil war and again i think this is more a political agenda than anything else this has to do with the resistance access this has to do with hizbollah this has to do with iran and the west determined

attempt to undermine these players in the regional politics because they know how popular they are and you know how powerful they are and it's just going to make the whole region into a complication huge conflict and this could be avoided if the gulf countries step back didn't get involved in lebanon didn't get involved in syria and the west didn't instigate them to talk to e.u. officials are expected to press russian president vladimir putin to change his stance of syria during this summit in st petersburg earlier alongside china the kremlin is opposed to any kind of military intervention and it wants dialogue instead but it was other issues into the day the took the spotlight including some of russia's own of his really followed those top level talks. the final press conference attended by the chairman of the european commission chose emmanuel but it was a and of course the chairman of the european council herman van rompuy of course with an egg question was posed by one of the foreign journalists and he said that

there were leaflets distributed at the hotel where he is they. know to russian pinochet and hundreds of physician members are in prison and just a quick aside we are apparently staying in the same hotel we did not see any such flyers but the question was posed and the russian president was quick to come up with a response to it and you. called political prisoners whenever i go i'm asked about mr holder and his future as we know the european court of human rights rules because there are new political motives in criminal cases and so if someone suggested i go to prison then i have good company of course we're talking about me here the former oil tycoon who is in prison at the moment on charges of investment and tax evasion now there of what we're of course other issues covered at length and the first and foremost of those was the economy of course the euro is finding itself in the rather tight grips of the economy crisis we have

a greece which is threatening to leave the eurozone and of course the decision on that is just weeks away from from now but it did look like the european leaders actually saw the picture and rather rosy colors they said that they're adamant in keeping a greece in the euro zone but it's on the terms and conditions that they themselves put down for the country and this of course comes on monday when the markets have crashed yet again. greece is gearing up for parliamentary election in less than two weeks time which could mean ask them scrapping its bailout deal with the e.u. and i.m.f. greece's future of the eurozone is also returned scrutiny interview coming up later this hour american economist and nobel laureate eric mascon says an end. the e.'s financial woes are still nowhere in sight. greece could go a. long term depression unemployment could grow to astronomical high it's already very high but it could it could certainly

get higher. the. things are by no means currently as bad as they as they could get i see the the greek situation as a tragedy because so much of what has happened could have been prevented if europe were truly. an integrated unit. cyber threats attacks and laws officially aiming to tackle internet piracy but in fact infringing people's rights to online privacy is an increasingly topical subject that we've been talking about a lot and the world's most famous whistle blows they need to get to the very heart of it too in his latest edition of his interview program here in r.t. julia sounds gets together with activists from the cyberpunk movement is a taste of what's to come tomorrow. thanks knowledge enables those also millions of

every communication then there is to the other side of the coin is what we do with it we could admit that there are some indeed some legitimate use investigators investigating the bad guys and bad guys and so on but the question is where to draw this judicial supervision where to go under the control that the citizens can have over the use of those technologies and this is police and when we get to those police issues and we were looking at the earlier we. are asked to sign something and don't understand the underlying technology which is why we see somewhat hope about cyber war is that some people that seem to be in the authority about war start talking about technology as if they understand that they're always talking about war because that's their business and so they're trying to rope technology into that and so when we have no control of our technology we have these people that wish to use it for for their ends for war specifically that's a recipe for some pretty scary stuff. more of that tomorrow the

canadian students are back on the streets thousands of march through montreal two days after talks with the quebec government on tuition fees collapsed student groups are developing a freeze on planned increases in higher education costs but the authorities of ruled out that possibility of protesters are now than vying to renew daily rallies which last month led to fierce clashes with police more than two and a half thousand arrests and result is going to she can reports now what started in february as a student strike is now grown into popular protest against mirroring the welfare system of canada's southern. the canadian province of quebec a region that prides itself on free healthcare and affordable education for its residents students here pay a fixed amount for tuition fees around twenty five hundred dollars a year for all of the colleges and universities that's the lowest rate in north the mayor. and the taxpayers pick up the rest but that model might change as their

government looks south they are looking across the borders and seeing what the united states are doing and trying to become closer and closer to what the united states are working on which is more and more proof is a show and said bring your social programs that cover for everybody. tens of thousands spilled onto the streets when the government said they'd be pushing up to ration fees every year and in five years the students of care back will face education costs almost double what they're paying. and i mean he knows is a student at a montreal university she works part time at a local ice cream shop she says if the people of keg don't stand there around now in the future higher education just won't be an option for many if it's too expensive. even think about going to school because it's another world it's part of something that's accessible they're not even think about being

a doctor or if you know it would be you know it's a symbol and what i was saying is that in us it's so expensive so the people the poor people they want to study they have no choice but going to army for that the prospect of having to join the military to provide for their education is not the only thing about the u.s. example that scares the kick want to fund skyrocketing tuition fees americans carry massive student loan debts on their shoulders that we need to preserve this and become what we've seen growing in the united states right now having a lot of students they are still paying for their university program and when they are seventy years old so we need to make sure that every students will be able to contribute to the. whole region and make sure that they have they can afford actually to start maybe. a new new. businesses the rest of north america should be looking to go back as an example of how to mobilize how student association should

function through direct democracy and how they should actually organize and challenge these measures and challenge this debt shackle system. the protest clearly signaled the path that came back is willing rather not willing to take when we look towards the united states we see a country in which the idea of access is wrapped up in the ability to pay and this is what we're seeing the resistance against that access to things like higher education or like health care are in fact access to public goods and that there should be a way of controlling the costs and ensuring that people no matter what their monetary capabilities are able to take advantage of these kinds of programs. what the world knows about the protests here is that they have to do with students and their tuition but for people of the problem it's not so much about the economy but more about their identity and the special welfare model that they are striving to i'm going to check our reporting from montreal canada r.t.

candidates in egypt's presidential election are trying to spin the reaction to mubarak's verdict their way. there are people demonstrating against one article i 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 this on the move and indeed since an execution of mubarak would be a setback to not only egypt's revolution but also to the arab spring in general and surely and a key to a successful revolution is not to see the american tactics being used in a tree and democracy in egypt but the two candidates who were switched to capitalize on. said that he was in great danger just. because it means that nobody is among now this is a man who is
