is backed by the army and was also a prime minister in the mubarak era has been given the green light to remain in the presidential race the decision also reverts just a simple fourteen back to the ruling military and the military really holds executive authority in this country and to a new president is elected so you have this very worrying situation where a president will be elected in the absence of a constitution and also in the absence of a parliament so at this stage there are more questions and answers the official line from the muslim brotherhood is to respect the decision of the court we heard as much from a candidate dr mohamed morsi although he did warn that there could be more dangerous consequences and he did say in fact that if there were any kind of mishaps in the elections and he would support people going back to the streets there there have however been leading voices within the muslim brotherhood that have denounced the decision of the court and the phrase being used is that this is a fully fledged coup and we're hearing that kind of criticism from across the
7:03 am
political spectrum on wednesday the justice ministry decreed that the military police and intelligence services half of whites to arrest and detain civilians and that in addition has sent out alarm bells to me it seems as if the emergency law that was only recently lifted could very well be reintroduced so you have these political developments that are causing people like mohamed el baradei who is the former head of the united nations atomic energy agency to put one on the military and the court to disposing elections that were scheduled to get under great the concern is that these elections will be overshadowed by violence the concern is also that the country will slide back into dictatorial rule and the other concern is that whichever candidate is elected as president will have powers that at this stage seemingly are unlimited middle east correspondent. summary frowsy believes that with the muslim brotherhood now being deprived of its
7:04 am
official tool of influence it could be left with no choice but to change its political strategy. as the muslim brotherhood and other islamic forces. are looking into the situation from a very worrying that positions of the thinkers what's have been happening today after the solving as a parliament which is the haves overwhelming majority inside that may be moving their way forward getting in upcoming election which will be a few a few months later. and the think is that if. comes to power this is likely actually an egyptian situation maybe it will crack down on them or is this seem very restrictive atmosphere experience due to mubarak regime elements or was all the regime regrouping themselves in a new political party as we hear now and they will compete in the upcoming
7:05 am
elections the political will to change it differently and. will decide not to waste of. them or is this thing. them selves for the parliamentary election coming up just bit later in the program with me kevin zero in one step forward no way back in the sarge may find himself in sweden by the end of june after british judges refused to reopen his extradition case all that amid concerns the trials just paving his way to the u.s. and human rights group criticizes e.u. policymakers for their treatment of immigrants calling it inhumane that says the economic crisis test the standoff between native europeans and outsiders to the limit. despite pakistan's repeated demands for the immediate end to u.s. led drone strikes in the country reports of fresh attacks are continuing at least three people believed the militants have been killed in the latest incident spoke
7:06 am
with their identities hard to verify there are concerns that america's war drones could be causing civilian deaths in the process so called collateral. which is going to come explains all. reports about u.s. drone strikes in pakistan coming more and more often we're getting used to hearing in the media such and such number of terrorists was killed with no way to verify really there are no names attached to those numbers usually but earlier this month american officials proudly announced that a drone strike in pakistan killed one of his top commanders almost two weeks later a video with the same man and. it was posted online with titles which are generally reserved for the living other al qaeda leaders have not confirmed or denied levy's death the video could have been taped before his death that's true so he might as well be dead but the confusion has once again raised the question of who's really dying in those bombings and how much do we actually know because it's all very murky what we do know is that the obama administration has dramatically ramped up
7:07 am
drone strikes in pakistan around story hundred strikes since he took office it's this area bordering afghanistan which is on the fire but judging by the intensity of the u.s. strikes there one thing that only terrorists leave there that's not the case of course the long investigative journalism says more than eight hundred civilians died in those bombings among them almost two hundred children what's interesting four year u.s. officials are all together tonight civilian deaths in drone strikes but reports on the ground told the opposite and thousands of people protesting furiously in pakistan told the opposite then that was the last straw at the aerial strike which killed two dozen pakistani soldiers last year by mistake diplomatic have a call up between the u.s. and pakistan pakistan blocked supply routes to afghanistan and they still remain closed by the way a new wave of extremism has been steered by those strikes but it's also interesting u.s. officials have been directly accused these bureau of investigative journalism which
7:08 am
works to shed light on civilian deaths in those drone strikes of. helping terrorists one might argue that this label terrorist helper is becoming an all too convenient tool for the government to brush off investigative journalists and then there was this yemeni journalist who reported about the drone strike in yemen in two thousand and nine twenty one woman and fourteen children died there the journalist is now in jail reportedly at the personal request of president obama himself. there's this line of thought in washington. it's all perfectly fine as long as we're fighting the bad guys the president approves the list of those bad guys by the way the kill list on secret evidence with no review but does the argument we're fighting the bad guys mean that the world should keep quiet about the execution of innocent people in washington i'm going to check out. after

a day's a vicious combat against armed rebels syrian government forces are finally open the turn of half or two u.n. observers now with memories of massacres still strong looking for those telltale signs of slaughter will be high on their agenda so far they found vast amounts of abandoned weapons of destruction with almost all government buildings looted and burned the turn also appears to be deserted with suspicion that bodies have been buried or removed before the un observers arrived parallels are also being drawn with past massacres but there's growing too over the government's culpability with the reports also implicating rebel forces david gibbs history professor at the university of arizona told us media spins left its mark on the conflict. was a general point in these types of you know conflicts of the propaganda aspect is critically important. and there is an effort in the works with rebels in a kind of purely positive light and syrian regime with
7:10 am
a purely negative light. you know you have the facts on the ground very hard to ascertain who. for a long time for a while looked like it was clearly done by the government but there was a report on the german process for quickly from further argument it's. and the case that there is some indications it might have been some element of the rebels that might have committed at least part of the massacre the german report with regard to poor underscores the fact that it's very difficult to get at the truth in these types of conflicts where you know both sides are trying to use propaganda and spin to advance their positions and so this is being presented as is typically the case in these types of conflicts the good versus evil conflict with all the blame on one side even if the reality is more complicated. but how is the editor in chief of the syria tribune says there's more than just the physical conflict raging right now in syria. we have the media war and we have the war on the ground. it's just.
7:11 am
a look at the moment it's very difficult. for many stories are leaking some serious also. responsible for a lot. of the western media is there no need to actually instigate looks at the. nation's job concluding that the syrian. regime was our responsibility for that and it was only. six names from the opposition just for james with competing interests plaguing the conflict cross talk show discusses just what's at stake right now in syria the full program here next hour. of it hadn't been for the outside interference the arming of the opposition approved motion of civil war by the united states britain france and their clients in the region this would not have evolved over this point it was it inevitable that there
7:12 am
would be a sectarian conflict as joshua seems to. be american for enter russian plans to change the regime but. anyway you save at the end how can anybody say that the government of the united states actually cares about the lives of people they killed hundreds of thousands in iraq they just bond led me into smithereens they're intervening in syria the whole idea that they are not of states care about the lives of arabs is just nonsense or about democracy they support saudi dictatorship. much more the next. wiki leaks editor julie massage could be sent to sweden by the end of the month where he's wanted to question. over sex assault allegations that's after the u.k.'s top court unanimously dismissed his bid to reopen his extradition case but a sign says the move is politically motivated in stockholm might have
7:13 am
a secret agreement with the united states where he's wanted for his whistleblowing activities straightly in fears that the court's decision brings it one step closer to being handed over to washington u.s. attorney kevin zeese thinks the outcome of the process will be decisive for the whole concept of freedom of speach. i think it's a real shame all assizes wanted for is questioning he's not been charged he could have done the questioning by skype there's no need to go to sweden to be questioned there's been rumors that there is a c. all the words a secret indictment already against julius honest but there may not be we don't really know the answer that at this point nothing has been released about that if there is an indictment and he is actually the united states they'll be a long battle about that as well. then the charges will be very serious ones and the ones that will define press freedom and government transparency for the twenty first century are really would be
7:14 am
a really critically important case to some of the truth. julius our just gotten out have shown that from the lowest levels to the highest levels of our military and our state department there are crimes being committed. hillary clinton signing a memo ordering our our diplomats to spy on didn't mess coming here and i nations which is illegal she should be being prosecuted now during the songs and so it's a real shame that the transparency that mr assad has brought to the world is being met with the fear and repercussions that's being threatened against him because what he has done merely has been getting out the truth and the truth is what's really frightening the united states which watches regularly you'll know will be following you such as case from the start so if you wondering how the whole story began you want to remind yourself so on my website. also that they were base that isn't it a superpower a suit that is no longer the stuff of science fiction the get go that wall as this
7:15 am
wall climbing out of grabs the attention of the u.s. military great big vacuum clean on its back they have it does the job that doesn't have a power also a shower of shame a billion dollar highway in russia's far east fails to withstand the patter of rain doesn't it just disappeared it gets completely washed away what pictures online. the ears enforcement of immigration control is inhumane and has gone far beyond the blocks borders according to a recent report by amnesty international and as a test for a center explains next ongoing policy failures have become a growing headache for native europeans too. it may be called the european the union but discord is rife and the swing to the extreme is becoming a little more mainstream especially when it comes to discourse on immigration and

7:17 am
receiving end of prejudice in many forms people of all in all of europe a woman with a veil can go into any shop and buy anything she wants but have build women cannot work in this shop but what is in the report it is the discrimination and the racism in the everyday life the people are facing because firstly the. because they don't trust the police so every time you get inserted on the street or issue in the stern warning that you have to cough it's taken out of you have whatever you don't report simply a two thousand and ten report by the european network against racism and discrimination found that racially discriminatory practices are widespread institutional in nature and practiced at all levels of society across europe in two thousand and eight the european commission proposed a directive that would ban discrimination on the grounds of age disability religion or belief and sexual orientation in all areas including social protection and advantages as well us access to goods and services not the current law only applies
7:18 am
to the workplace but it's been four years and the directive is stuck largely because some member states are blocking it arguing that implementation would be too costly this activists say is one of the many failures of policymakers and while immigrants are blamed by politicians on the right for failure to integrate others say it's the authorities which have not done enough. it was a policy. to the migrants i never knew that if there is a policy it's not the full of too far as i know it's of those who make the policy europe's economic troubles which are preoccupied leaders show no sign of ending soon but the race and immigration issues they've left are solved could prove just as big a political time bomb tests are cilia r.t. brussels. and there's extremism and intolerance flourish across the you there even further headaches coming form the economy too terrified of what's happening in the

but that's what russia's cardiology has experienced first hand when their patients looking broad instead looked abroad instead rather the treatment when it came to treatment for serious heart disease now this though could be said to change soon it's interesting story can of artes is on top of it. home is where the heart is but for many russians their country is not where the chance to get their medical care especially those with heart problems is many is just saying thousand russians are here just to go abroad to get treatment because they say health care at home leaves much to be desired for the country's leading cardiologists it's a great concern that only. we have thousands of cases which can be very successfully treated here at home i say with all responsibility ninety percent of all treatment is done and broader can be done here. but many remain unconvinced

7:23 am
a few years ago such as replacing a human heart valve with one from a calf. and holding a frame was perceived as a phonier to evolve from the cardiac cycle for cuff we purchased parts for me crackers bring them here isolate the necessary tissues give them the necessary treatment the treatment methods are protected by a. then. from this to issue the conflict damaged human. thousands of such procedures have already been deformed to center on patients as young as just a few weeks old to those whose lives are in full bloom twenty four year old not tyler who suffered from inherited terry heart condition it's just the feeling right now is that i understand and feel like i'm completely healthy. a priceless feeling of in your health achieved without hitting outside russia's borders in moscow. r.t. . so preserve our culture. to gauge the mood or the course of

a big greek election coming up with a look. an awful lot the financial world they are just absolutely focused on it right now kevin it's what they've been waiting for and as you say the greats they are indeed taking to the polls now what they're doing is they're going to be voting for a new government that will leave that in for through a series of measures that the year is there requires or potentially still the country to independence but to their own old car to the drachma a lot rests on as you say let's have a look at the european markets and see what they're looking like just now there is some optimism in must be certainly cautious optimism and that's because search openings across the globe are expected to intervene and that's to offset the volatility that is expected next week now the bank of england they are leading the pack so to speak by pumping over one point five billion dollars into the economy and that's in case the market should take a turn for the worse the u.s. stock futures also want to mention they're pointing to the upside and that's
7:25 am
because they too are anticipating the fed was to intervene as well so right now we've got optimism let's have a look at the russian markets and see that they're benefiting from the father oil prices are creeping higher now the central bank here decided not to intervene and that was because of inflation rate pressures they meet it today ok but they are just want to. and i said for the my sex if we get a look at some of those big blue chips here in moscow we have a local gas pump so managing to get around seven tenths of a sense the background of our lou call seven tenths of a percent right now as it looks like they're going to finish the wait on a high and i see how the ruble is performing on the russian currency hasn't had much movement today it's still gaining against the us dollar the euro in the session of the euro dollar as i say the greeks could be leaving it alone could be waving goodbye potentially one twenty six twenty five for the common occurrence say all right is have a look at the asian stocks because the bank of japan they too decided not to
7:26 am
intervene and investors were very disappointed by that because they were expected to do so but they managed to hold on to a very modest gain of one basis point behind sign one point two percent up in positive territory out talking about china they've actually increased their crude supplies imported i say as the highest level in four years and since the beijing olympics are taking advantage of higher oil prices low or prices there they say they're trying to get a bargain let's have a look because they are due to. if you look at the two prices that you're paying for a barrel they remain in. the markets for now kevin so it's all about sunday and i'll be back on monday with a report to see what happens i'll come above all from you all right thanks for. the group from. raising the hackles of law abiding locals.
