leon a sad the government of any country is of course responsible for what is happening in that country but the regime is not solely to blame we see massacres in houla terrorist attacks in damascus and aleppo that have been condemned by the un security council all of this is a result of confrontations that are receiving more and more outside support firstly moral support for the so-called armed opposition then funding weapons and bringing militants from neighboring countries into syria. in terms of what the next step could be for syria where russia features in that circle of rove saying that he wants to see a international conference held to discuss what the international community can do to try and sort things out in the arab state this conference would see the united states the european union as well as the permanent members of the the u.n. security council and also syria's neighbors being brought to the table also it will
4:03 pm
include countries like iran now saying that when it comes to iran they have to be part of this discussion they were hugely influential with with the syrian government and the countries like the united states have in the past been willing to to discuss discuss issues with iran when it serves their purpose also secular from saying that countries have been quick to blame the government for massacre that had taken place before the results of the investigations that actually being have been made public also saying that the syrian people should be the ones to decide their future not any international power. if we are told that russia simply needs to order president assad around and everything will be sorted and then nothing can be done with such an attitude from our international colleagues that's why i say we need responsibility one word can ignite a fire that we won't be able to extinguish we cannot be sending daily signals that
4:04 pm
make the opposition believe it will receive help just as libya received its so-called help russia is committed to not allowing the situation in syria to end up like the one we saw in libya. here in observers in syria continue their investigation into an alleged massacre in the home a province the monitors have visited the site of the killings but aren't able to determine how many died or who was behind the slaughter patrick kay's a reporter from the online magazine sparked believes outside military action in syria would only aggravate an already volatile situation. i think it is very important to rule out military intervention to say actually this is the worst possible scenario in terms of allowing the syrian people to decide their own fate yes the situation in syria is horrid at the moment anyone with an ounce of humanity in them would over the last week really be troubled by the massacres that are taking place by the fighting that is taking place but you have to really resist
4:05 pm
that need jerk in polls to want to try me into other countries suffer in conflicts and to say we can just step in and make things better in many situations and this would be the case in syria western intervention would intensify the conflicts and would take to make it far worse than it is now it's always important to bear that in mind when thinking about you know how best to intervene in these conflicts often the best intervention is not to intervene at all. spain has finally admitted it needs cash to help its troubled banks after emergency talks with the eurozone ministers the country's economy minister said madrid is going to ask for a loan greater than the forty billion euros recommended by the international monetary fund crisis strategist gonzalo lira i spoke to an allele here in r.t. he believes spain will end up losing its banking sector. spain needs more money spain the country the nation sovereign nation as well as spain's financial sector spain is bankrupt there is no other way to look at it and this is just postponing
4:06 pm
the inevitable so far that they have promised hundred billion euros hundred billion euros in order to gain some perspective that was as roughly ten percent and it i think the notion is to scare the markets into thinking that your p.m.'s can salvage spain and spain is not a problem i think that the markets are going to realize very quickly that this is a smokescreen i personally don't think that i that this will happen that this hundred billion euros will be just for it over to spain's banks and even if it is it will have some of these things that for all intents and purposes it won't be really any kind of a handout it will be a some sort of hand european nationalization of the special inspector i think all of this is really a reaction to what is one of the greeks on june seventeenth rhesus one tower parliamentary elections and it's looking very likely that the greek people will vote against any kind of austerity for their austerity measures out so i think that the european powers are trying to come up with

a stance that has won them support spurred by the backlash from disputed parliamentary elections but it's a faction that has little else to agree on with the rate of fusion of very different political forces which have national socialists already called bolsheviks with a lot of people who just don't want to look some people just want to have a party or so in this case when you have these fusion of very different political forces it's next to impossible for them to. have any demands symbolized by white ribbons the movement survived nearly half a year with mass peaceful demonstrations initially grabbing the public's attention hard to ignore some electoral reform has followed. but more recently the efforts of the marred by violence leading to a change of tactics swapping classes for camping the stage sit ins to reach after tweet from an activist alexina valmy arrests have followed but many don't see the

police as the real threat to the move its longevity ever said this to a leader is always required as without a leader any movement is doomed to fail there is a unique situation where there are lots and there is presently no leader here. i have not seen any leader that i can vote for myself but i hope that this move will result in the birth of a new smart balanced and you can do it leader their development as a movement is something many will be watching intensely currently it still ranks in its infancy finding its feet to convince a nation let alone supporters more than tents and twitter will be needed to greece last. party where the twenty four hours a day from the russian capital coming up in the next few minutes could sue bring down the government websites just peaceful demonstrators we speak to an indian activist as the country's web users hold rallies against internet censorship also

4:12 pm
really took on the responsibility for the deaths of four thousand people in a gas cloud in india and the maiming of countless more who were poisoned by the by the dow chemical company i think there's been a real complete kind of mismatch in this olympics with trying to bring in really is pretty essential prostitute the olympics and give a lot of these poisonous very profitable and actually very dark nasty companies greenwash for them that is to say to sanitize their images so show eating them with the olympic event and that is not what the olympics are for it's time to look rather more like the nineteen thirty six olympics than the good old london nineteen forty eight olympics which were done in a much nicer fashion without all this horrible corporate sponsorship. indian internet users have taken their grievances onto the streets with rallies across the country against online censorship anonymous operation india a branch of the global hacking group or
