they could see the called the baby but with the support of the government they certainly received lads they were even water. they were protected by is so. happy with the relations we for schools i cut. for sure we followed the best again i suspect but they by happy killed by members of the rebels the opposition blame me to. try to prepare internationally they were a separate group it would have been. because they didn't belong to the big group provoke an international outrage. but it is case there's he's quite striking i disliked. it what they were what it just before he said to syria. press about the situation. so it

seems to me that there are elements of your pussy show who are very unscrupulous and they don't want to. play should be if i have to. pay people to kill to go here . and so they are recurrent police terrible. where the whole massacre occurred on the eve of coffee and a visit to syria this latest her bloodbath comes just to have a u.n. security council meeting but in the halls of the united nations deadlock over a damascus proving no barrier for some or finalizing plans for a post us in syria. reports. the united nations is the only diplomatic forum where every country is supposed to be governed by the same rules united nations founding charter close upon us to unite our strength to maintain international peace and security a founding member and biggest financial contributor america ratified inside the u.n. treaty in one thousand nine hundred five which prohibits unprovoked attacks or military

interventions in sovereign countries unless authorized by the un security council. my fellow americans today our armed forces joined our nato allies in air strikes against serbian forces responsible for the brutality in kosovo in recent decades the us has been seen by a leading the very international laws it helped create we have acted with resolve the u.s. and its allies also acted without authorization from the un security council when it launched a seventy eight day aerial attack on yugoslavia in one thousand nine hundred nine nato starts war against the federal republic of yugoslavia serbia and montenegro. serbia for seventy eight days. and this doesn't have you an authorization until the very end the us again disregarded international law in two thousand and three after the security council refused to support a military strike on iraq they withdrew their new additional resolution rather than

face defeat clearing it is their argument the way for a military campaign without any new u.n. approval the united nations security council has not lived up to its responsibilities. so we will rise to ours is not in conformity with the u.n. charter from our point of view and from the charter point of view it was in the by circumventing international law for geo political interests experts say the us has systematically damage the confidence and credibility of the un it's been used by the united states i think as a fig leaf to get multilateral prove off from the policies that the u.s. wants to do but if the u.n. doesn't agree with the united states as you know the case of iraq or kosovo the united states just disregard in the case of syria were kofi annan fragile peace plan has showed slow progress washington is prepared to once again bypass the un if the security council fails to impose more pressure on damascus and members of this

council and members of the international community are left with the option only of having to consider whether they're prepared to take action outside of the annan plan and the authority of this council groans have known for diplomacy they have the legions apparently the united states thinks it has no need for diplomacy it has missiles and drones the u.n. was founded at the end of the second world war as a place for countries to solve conflicts through dialogue rather than gunfire however the honorable goal of maintaining global peace and security becomes harder to attain every time a member state decides to play by its own rules or an up or not i r.t. new york. clashes in syria now already spillover on the border to lebanon our team at the country's interior minister who believes the virus of the syrian violence could be contagious for the whole region and here's a taste of what's coming for you next hour. we have some global and arab interests

clashing here and we all understand that we don't understand is where this clash will take us in the end but we can say one thing with about if the syrian conflict is resolved one way or another this will affect the situation in lebanon lebanon security doesn't depend on lebanon alone in them politically and in terms of security and lebanon depends on external factors as well the queen the people of lebanon have close religious family ties with neighboring states. for military interference into syria's affairs and strong arming a regime change there is unacceptable and that's the message coming from central asia six minor in powers at the shanghai cooperation organization summit in beijing wrapped up well all eyes now are on its fringes were iranian an obgyn issues will be brought to the forefront right here she explains. well the shanghai cooperation

organization summit which last two days now has come to an end with some very important security agreements have been signed between the parties involved but definitely the most interesting events of today are the meetings. the leaders of iran mahmoud ahmadinejad and afghanistan i mean first of all. china for him it's just the place to be because it is probably one of the few places in the world where he is not being threatened by sanctions where he can all feel relaxed and smiling we saw on the cameras as he was walking inside the building how children relaxed he was definitely putting on him have a lot to talk about because russia plays a very important role in mediating the conflict between iran and the west moreover the timing of this particular meeting in beijing is very important as well because in the middle of june we're expecting a five plus one group of negotiators to meet in moscow to discuss the iranian issue certainly this happens i mean the time when washington does not rule out military action against tehran and constantly keeps slapping iran with different sort of

economic and trade sanctions both russia and china support to support the civil nuclear program in iran at the same time they would not support any military nuclear program in this country now as for the meeting with hamid karzai it's also seen as very crucial because russia is now playing a very important role in afghanistan providing one of its military bases in the town it will be honest for the nato troops to deliver its military cargo to afghanistan to help the withdrawal of the u.s. troops from the country by the end of fourteen evidence to many that the war on terror in afghanistan is not working out as it was planned civilians are terrorists drug trafficking and still there so russia certainly wants to play a very important role in bringing this country to peace both russia and china have agreed to bolster their military ties of the news which would probably be unwelcome in the west and particularly in the united states definitely this latest meeting between the leaders of china and russia

a very interesting spin to the international geopolitics. while we're always interested in your thoughts on the stories we're covering here on r t well now website as you know com we're asking today what you think the reasons behind russia stepping up its military ties with china are some take a look at the site that we've got there for you so as you can see so far the majority of respondents think it's to keep washington's asia pacific ambitions in chad and eighteen percent say moscow wants to ensure regional security while others are split between two options to keep tabs on china's growing military might and gain more leverage in the un security council so join the vote at r.t. dot com. the bloodletting continues to span all across afghanistan with scores of people killed in a recent wave of bombings including a nato air strike local officials say eight hundred civilians died at a wedding ceremony when the alliance forces launched an air raid on a village in the country's east nato commanders have denied

a report claiming the only wiped out taliban fighters on the same day three suicide bombers hit a market outside a sprawling nato base in kandahar killing twenty two people investigative journalist gareth porter says nato is activity in afghanistan it has become a magnet for civilian deaths where average happens. this whole problem of u.s. and nato military operations both air strikes and mate rates is a situation that has caused enormous opposition from the population particularly on the southern afghanistan tuned region of the country to increasingly oppose the presence of u.s. and nato forces if you look at the casualty figures for civilians and you compare them with the level of foreign troops operating in afghanistan you can see that there's a direct correlation between the two and the more u.s.

and nato forces particularly u.s. military forces are active in a particular area the more civilians are going to be caught up in the fighting so the exact opposite is really the reality of the claim but the united states could ever protect the civilian population. so the county in a program the pirates riding a wave to success there is mutiny on the political ship in germany as the pirate party uses the economic crisis and a friendly face to take a first step on to the ladder to power. plus as the trial of america's most famous army whistleblower gets going in court it turns out it's the u.s. government that's hiding skeletons in the closet. the house of ousted egyptian president hosni mubarak has worsened dramatic comes just days after the eighty four year old was jailed for life for complicity in the killing of protesters during last year's uprising the former leader is currently in intensive care suffering

from shock high blood pressure and severe depressions where the runoff looming on june the sixteenth hundreds of thousands in tahrir square are calling for mubarak's former prime minister ahmed shafik to be disqualified from the presidential race well for many egyptians revolution hasn't brought the change they were hoping for and that's particularly the case for women are just there for us explains. when this egyptian woman was dragged into tahrir it to be exposed and abused by the military and then it serves as a stark reminder that barrack mice of being toppled egypt's arab spring has many hurdles to overcome if it's to blossom into a democracy a conservative culture watching a woman exposed in that way open the floodgates to show. female protest is subjected to violence and sexual harassment not just at the hands of those they oppose but their fellow revolutionaries as well so we're having

a small profit with some men and the streets that there are still a little bit again as having women with them side to side in the list of women played a vital role in egypt's revolution but will the future now holds for women and their rights. and the lives of women. actually. i'd like my dog to to live how i do less in the same way i live my i do this with no harassment sexual harassment is rampant in egypt forcing women to wear conservative clothes and even avoid areas where they might come into close contact with men because of the problems is that to harassment that a lot of women complain about here in cairo the metric system has some areas for women only many of the women some of the men's wondering are. egypt's now facing the prospect of an islamic government that's raising fears over what it

could mean for women's rights i met with as around just one of just eleven female m.p.'s and a member of the muslim brotherhood she's controversially condoned the practice of female circumcision which was banned under the former regime. who agreed the rules of the constitution first. the rules for women and where and who do what is right. these coups to revoke hard won women's rights could risk egypt's new modern democracy becoming a terrifying throwback to the past ages a female oppression now. from. point which is very for street because usually off to. you you're going to gain the political revolution in egypt maybe in food the cultural one it seems just getting stuff to serve you.

well remember we've got all the latest stories and videos now i have sired dot com to check out what's waiting for you there right now. why would a u.s. presidential hopeful mitt romney make an appearance at this year's top secret building her conference known for being anything other world movers and shakers that's the gate with us. and where all the running beast it's been discovered that thirty thousand years ago the stone age people were using animation techniques in their cave drawings creating an impression of animals moving. while the european commission has proposed more control of banks which means they would come under much greater central oversight of this comes after financial

institutions of europe's economic bastiaan germany felt the global european squeeze following the downgrade by moody's on wednesday investment advisor patrick young says europe is now paying a high price for turning a blind eye to problems which a blog existed. we've really heard the truth that i think many in finance knew all along buying such as commerce spike they build themselves up by huge portfolio where they thought they were being very very clever by buying themselves bourne's of places such as greece italy spain and in other words all the places where not they can't possibly sell their debt because the government sort of affectively in huge problems so therefore what's happened is once more another little layer of the onion let us say has been peeled away and that's examining and showing us that ultimately the euro house new clothes the european union is in

a total mess due to its three years of denial of its economic problems all of the politicians have basically left the people stranded the new government in spin went into the whole mode from the government they came into office and six months later they've suddenly realized what anybody who is remotely financially literate could work out six months ago two years ago even spanish banks are thoughts and ultimately there needs to be a way in order to manage to rescue them but the conventional belike mechanisms are not going to work and that's why ultimately it's very difficult to see tragically whether or not there really is a future to the euro was a currency because it's a disastrous political scheme rather than an economic engine of prosperity rather it's the opposite it's putting people out of work for up work rather than putting them in jobs well coming out this hour and next guys there will be a looking at the case efforts to snare economic prosperity and the financial crisis

. the metropolitan police in the u.k. are going to go after them. well max and i were there to witness some of the buildings they raided they all looked suspiciously like council flats over nine hundred police officers are busy working across london tackling financial crime against businesses and the public as part of the latest operation in the m.p.'s is total war on crime in the last twelve months the police have seized over fifteen million pounds in cash from the small time economic fraudsters well they've got it backwards as the frederic bastiat said a couple of centuries ago and looting at the top began saluting at the bottom if you want to get we're living at the bottom give or alluding at the top which means get rid of cameron get rid of born get rid of mervyn king until that happens expect more looting at the bottom. was

a european financial rollercoaster keeps bringing not just economies but also governments down to given some political parties a chance to get to the top while the pirate party in germany has seen a surge in popularity as people decide not to put their trust in traditional factions i support this kind office as the are political ambitions. it may seem like a homing convention but don't let these outfits for you this is the annual conference of the pirate party of germany only three years ago it had just about one thousand members now there are almost thirty thousand and with deputies in three local parliaments including in berlin the pirates are fine jacking their way into mainstream politics paris has become a more digital landscape in germany that a lot of parties have to take account of and you already see that are people reacting to the party success story started a new in local elections last september when the surprising one newly ninety

percent of votes now according to opinion polls the party would capture up to thirteen percent of votes across junee if the election to the national parliament was held today the pirates are a newcomer within the party system they produce a policy making people didn't expect from a traditional party the new style and political communication and they are kind of a platform for the transport of putting to protest. the choirs are all about participation and transparency all members to take part in discussions online and it doesn't seem to matter that so far leave any submitted to me to political motions and school spyware until conservations or that their favorite meeting spot is a bar in berlin they don't have a stance on foreign affairs or the financial crisis and have already made a few mistakes along the way with one senior member comparing their success with

the first years of hitler's nazis though he quickly apologized we don't take ourselves so seriously we're not a come first as other politicians are we we know that we're human and we we make mistakes and except that we make mistakes and therefore we have no promise. ok sorry i was for germany's national election is next year and appointments and ready for battle just like most young organizations the pirate party of germany's going through its own growing pains but its popularity are on the rise and it could be time for mainstream politicians to watch out for the new kids on the block it's going to. germany now take a look at some other stories from around the world u.s. federal agents have arrested dozens of workers at florida recounts largest airport on suspicion of smuggling millions of dollars worth of cocaine thirty three people

are accused of sending drugs aboard commercial flights for at least a decade they are suspected of belonging to two puerto rico based drug trafficking organizations that work together and start the drugs were sent to several american cities including miami and new york. the space shuttle enterprise is arrived and at its final home after floating up the hudson river it's been lifted into this play into place out of the sea air and space museum in new york although it's never been on an actual space mission it was used as a test vehicle for experiments on the ground and was brought to new york after nasa decided to and bury your shuttle program. the pretrial hearings in the case of bradley manning accused of the biggest classified data in u.s. history have kicked off in maryland but there is growing concern over the year fairness what the u.s. government's withholding more than two hundred thousand relevant documents from manning's the fans blogger karen the star who witnessed the first hearing shares

his impressions. what was really clear today is that the government has been misrepresenting intentionally the sort of evidence that it has in its possession that it knows agencies possess which they do not want to turn over to the defense they cite legal reasons and military justice rules they talk about the fact that the defense hasn't been specific and they make up how they haven't you certain terms that you would normally use so they're just you know going above and beyond to stall and make sure that they keep going where they don't provide the information that the defense wants that's just not the role of the judge is actually the person who makes the decision on whether evidence is supposed to be turned over to the defense is the government or the prosecution's decision. and straight to the world of business now marina what have you got up your sleeve this hour well i have some disappointing news this hour everything seems to be

going south you have just opened and the first minutes all of the trade in session were seen positive numbers but they already minimized gains that we saw in the first few minutes you can see that both the floats and the facts are still high but it's pretty much safe to say that that will be going in the right territory very soon now it's still early in the session to determine the factors but of course we do know that the european central bank left this interest rate unchanged so this is definitely playing on some investors' minds right now let's move on and continue with a look at spain the government there will be testing the waters of the global credit market later today cash strapped economy will try to raise one point six billion euros and that's in that speculations it's been seeking a bailout from. spain of course needs to find at least eighty billion euros to shore up its banks which have been struggling due to bad property loans. well here in russia the markets have already slipped into negative territory both of them

before it was only my. i six now we can see the figures are still pointed up. trust me when i say the r.t.s. is a negative territory as well very slightly still and also it's important to mention that russia development bank says that it's ready to support the country's equity markets and it will do that by y. installs not only will it make a big profit since russian i could see but it will also help to reduce the volatility on the market scene and that's how we'll see how this plays out and will have the graphics pointed thousand words the correct version of currencies let's see what's happening there and when it comes to the euro it's now again then against the dollar when it comes through the ruble it's gaining against both major currencies we know that the central bank has been trying really hard to support the ruble because we've seen some weakness in the past couple of weeks for the month of may it's fourteen percent of its value now let's move on to a crew that was gaining for a fourth day straight and now we can see that it's drop and again as i said this

appointment then this goes this by the fact that we know that u.s. stockpiles have dropped and also we know that there will be more monetary easing in europe and the u.s. and also iran has reaffirmed its that it's all in the nuclear talks but this doesn't seem to be helping matters let's move on to asia all of the markets are still trading coming up to their final hours and it's still a positive to its worse a little bit of optimism remains there we know the banking stocks some of the best performers of. two tokyo and also another one we create again this helping to boost exports and panasonic get in there on the report side this hour and let's move on to the uys the performance for almost wednesday's trading session as the markets are closed right now and there was a pause at the session both of that and the nasdaq gained over two percent and this came amid reports a survey done by the federal reserve which showed that the u.s. economy is picking up but then they gave us the markets open so that we might see some pessimism there was dead. there well it sounds like a. been
