this is r t the headlines for you revolution returns to egypt as hundreds of thousands rally in tahrir square deepening political and religious divisions an ominous warning of trouble to come. and some of your ages leading powers with russia and china are in the driving seat gather to thrash out security as a counterbalance to political grandstanding on the west. america's defense chief is up to india's leadership has a string of bad luck leaves the u.s. short of bases at its military move into the asia pacific. and syria allows

humanitarian aid workers into the country for the first time amid an escalation of violence and expulsion of form diplomats. but as well as physical violence syria has been fighting a so-called information war and conflicting reports about the situation syria's minister of information tells r.t. what he feels is really going on there. bennett and that's the arab league council has asked satellite operators are upset to pound the broadcast of syrian satellite channels what do you thing about this decision. this decision is an attack on free media and freedom of expression it's an attack on syrian media the purpose is to hide the truth about what is really going on in syria from people both inside and outside the country this is part of the smear campaign launched by certain satellite channels and

supported by the gulf nations behind it the decision contradicts fundamental moral and professional standards for mass media in the arab world and globally it contradicts the rules and regulations for satellite broadcasting as agreed by the council of the arab ministers of information and this decision was made by foreign ministers which means it was politically motivated it's part of the anti syrian political agenda we all understand that these plans are being implemented on political and economic levels the main purpose of this decision is to silence syrian channels that can uncover the role of some of these countries providing support to terrorists in syria helping them financially and smuggling weapons into the country and they're also afraid of syrian channels disclosing the truth about terrorist connections of some media outlets financed and supported by these outside players we have had a situation where terrorists acted as correspondents to foreign media the very

people are sponsible for deaths filmed their crimes and sent the footage to the media blaming the government for the atrocities of the syrian people and the ministry of information condemn this decision the ministry considers it as its responsibility to provide satellite broadcasting to syria. satellite channels thought. how was the government organized satellite broadcasting for syrian satellite channels do you plan to work together with our upside and else out since you have contracts with them. nor. considering the current situation of war and hysteria around syria we anticipated that a decision of this sort would be made especially after the us in europe impose sanctions on syrian media outlets also the us and canada took technical measures to stop syrian t.v. channels and radio stations from broadcasting in north america so we are prepared

to help syrian satellite channels continue broadcasting through different satellites in the same orbits used by arab sat and know that. we have the capability as for the absolute now sat satellite you know that arab sat is controlled by the council of arab ministers of information and that the head of the council is a saudi. saudi arabia was one of the gulf nations that suggested slapping syria with sanctions if arab sat complies with this decision and this will constitute a violation of satellite broadcasting regulations this would be a politically motivated step organized by external forces that are attacking syria and the syrian media as for nasa that it's a joint stock company some of the stock belongs to the egyptian government some to private investors and that's why we insist that now such should not comply with

this decision should on its legal and contractual obligations to the syrian ministry of information which means continuing the satellite broadcast of our channels. i want to assure all of our viewers in syria and abroad that syrian satellite channels will continue broadcasting without any destruction or there is no need to get new antennas or briefs. program your equipment today daily satellite broadcasting in syria is sixteen hours many specialized information channels have not reached this level yet. since arab states and other countries as you say are waging an information war against syria does the syrian government media still provide balanced and unbiased coverage do they provide an accurate picture of the situation in syria especially considering that they were not prepared for this information war. and first of all it should be said that everything

about the mass media is in fact down to the audience if we take polls around inside and outside syria we shall see that the audience of the syrian satellite channels has grown and so has the number of viewers who perceive these channels as the source to turn to a live news coverage that syrian satellite channels provide live coverage sixteen hours a day and this includes both the official channels and the specialized and private channels thus we can say that the official syrian media has taken a firm lead in the coverage of the barbaric war syria has been forced into and in exposing the plans to undermine the strength and the spirit of the syrian people i'm deeply convinced that the recent sanctions against our mass media came as a response to its increased impact had there been no such impact it would be no need to introduce sanctions against on mass media the american and european sanctions followed by those imposed by some gulf states at the recent arab league meeting only confirms that the influence of the syrian media has grown and because

of all that we will have to develop our information policy and improve the structure of the syrian media. the arab league sees to shut down some of the syrian channels but the annan plan actually calls for as many channels as possible to cover. the events in syria. of course it's very strange we ask oceana and the un security council who will protect freedom of speech democratic principles and liberties how can you shut down syrian national media when the annan plan calls for free accreditation for foreign media coming to syria to cover the situation here and we have one hundred eighty media outlets from all over the world represented in syria well in that and over one hundred accredited foreign reporters permanently working here traveling freely

across the country to cover the events. how can you shut down syrian satellite channels and at the same time allow foreign news services to operate freely this will result in biased coverage all this is part of the information war waged against syria but we know that eighty percent of the satellite channels dedicate thirty minutes of their news hour to syria today and a recent study shows that ninety percent of satellite coverage on syria has nothing to do with the actual situation in the country it's all lies and fabrications this again proves that there's a real information war waged against syria with real facts being substituted with fabrications. these lies and the only way for them to achieve their objectives in their war against syria and that the have the houla massacre is a good example of that as soon as the first pictures of the massacre were released everybody started accusing the syrian army and security forces but we all know who

was really behind this crime and all the atrocities used against the syrian people as well as the sanctions introduce against the syrian government media have revealed the true nature of those waging war against syria. today the people of syria are targeted by terrorists who are armed and sponsored by regional powers like qatar saudi arabia and turkey. as well as by western nations such as the us the have those who often talk about fighting terrorism have joined their forces today to support terrorists attacking syria in the battle going to thank you very much for being with us today mr adelman what syrian minister of information.
