the government of any country is of course responsible for what is happening in that country it's not the regime is not solely to blame we see massacres in houla as 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 rob 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 include countries like iran no so 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 the run when it serves their purpose also secular for off saying that countries have been quick to blame the government for must because that had taken place before the results of the investigations that are actually being have been made public also saying that the syrian people should be the ones that 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 if we cannot be sending daily signals

that 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. u.n. observers in syria continue their investigation into an alleged massacre in the hama province the monitors are visited the site of the killings but are unable to determine how many died or who was behind the slaughter patrick case is a reporter from the online magazine spite 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 there by the fighting that is taking place but you have to resist that need jerk impulse

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 what actually 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 is finally admitted it needs cash to help its troubled banks after emergency talks with the eurozone ministers the country's finance 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 believes spain will end up losing its banking sector. spain needs more money spain the country the nation the sovereign nation as well as spain's financial sector spending bankrupt there is no other way to look at it and this is just postponing inevitable so hard that they have

promised a hundred billion euros not hundred billion euros in order to gain some perspective that was as roughly ten percent of spain's g.d.p. 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 nice things that for all intents and purposes it won't be really a kind of a handout it will be a some sort of hand european nationalization of the spanish banking sector i think all of this is really a reaction to what is one hundred greeks on june seventeenth rhesus want to have parliamentary elections and it's looking very likely that the greek people will vote against any kind of austerity for their austerity measures and after so i think that the european powers are trying to come up with a way to save face and protect spain from what they perceive is going to be the

disaster of next monday. r.t. live here in moscow still to come this hour tainted reputation as the london olympics are set to start makes months we investigate why a firm link to allegations of human rights abuses has been chosen to provide security. that's still to come but first russians violating protest regulations will now have to pay seven thousand euros or drop to two hundred hours of community service president putin stress the new rally law is in line with european standards the opposition is planning a so-called million man march next week but it looks like the movement is unlikely to live up to its former glory is what is jacob greece reports. it's been dubbed moscow's take on the global comply movement. in america canada and around the globe we've seen protesters bedding down in their thousands here they've never quite reached those numbers more people needed to do these because most of them

just come to us in the weekends and in the evenings fair with the support and a continual game of cat and mouse with the city's police has taken its toll it's all keep our style protest in moscow was only started up a short time ago it's already is the port seems to be willing for those with to come out and visibly show their support fewer and fewer we're talking about tens hundreds more often than not and what's left is a hardcore few struggling to keep this movement alive like occupy elsewhere this has been organized online and epitomized by their encampment but that's about where the similarities end rather than demonstrating against perceived social inequality this is principally about one man in charge president vladimir putin is the stance that has won them support by the backlash from disputed parliamentary elections but

it's a faction that has little else to agree on with their local. there are a diffusion of very different political forces will have national socialism will have a radical bolsheviks but we have a lot of people who just don't want to log some people just want to have a party or so in this case when you have this fusion of very different political forces it's next it was the will 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 be 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 movement's longevity of a civil disobedience and

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 than the man we would need to report first 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 kid a leader in their development as a movement is something many will be watching intensely currently still ranks in its infancy finding its feet but to convince a nation let alone your own supporters more than tents and twitter will be needed if you groups r.t. moscow. this is r.t. live here in the russian capital coming up in the next few minutes for you hackers to bring down government websites by just peaceful demonstrators we speak to an indian activist as the country's web users hold rallies against internet censorship also trigger happy hells wives.

more and more women in new york a guy. in for a new hobby find out what's driving the female forearm frenzy in a few minutes here on r.t. . first u.k. politicians are said to be questioning why a security firm linked to allegations of human rights abuses could have been hard to provide safety during the london olympics the forest also operates in the jewish settlements in the west bank and east jerusalem which are illegal under international law this year journalist tony guzzling says companies with full reputations are using the olympics to gain respectability i'd like to see a bit of spine from our parliament to say that these are not appropriate people to be doing that while a lot of people involved in pictures you probably know who aren't really appropriate such as the dow chemical company who when they bought union carbide 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 it's pretty essentially prostitute the olympics and given a lot of these poisonous very profitable actually very dark nasty companies trashy greenwash for them that is to say to sanitize their images so show it in them with the olympic event and that is not what the olympics are for starting to look rather more like the 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. in internet users have taken their grievances onto the streets with rallies across the country against online censorship anonymous operation india which is a branch of the global hacking group about the laws that ban file sharing websites new delhi based activists did i was bushed believes anonymous are simply peaceful demonstrators. we are trying to reach out to the government of india and to tell

them actively that this ban this censorship that they have put up on the whole country is unacceptable because millions and millions of people are getting affected by it side has been banned that is used daily by designers and filmmakers to upload their video and get in touch with their clients and everything it has become almost impossible for them to conduct their daily business they're losing massive amounts of money and they're doing massive amounts of opportunities so it is a very destructive thing to man the internet like that this thing that is widely referred to as hiking is not done by the anonymous group what anonymous does is something known as distributed denial of service which is known as the d.d. o. s. according to the two thousand and eight amendment of this bill this has been viewed as an offense but it is just a normal protest when people are protesting they're going and they're sitting in front of the offices of the organization you know they're blocking access to
