hollow victory and islamist egypt's hold a victory contested by his rival and undermined by the military granting itself legislative powers. forming a government in struggling greece and stemming violence in war torn syria the group of twenty world leaders gather in mexico with big problems on the table. and with the e.u. all involved go against iran planned for july moscow hosts global players to result controversy surrounding a nuclear program. well

wired news around the clock this is live with me rory sushi in moscow egyptians have had their say in the country's first post mubarak presidential election but there's still no sense of closure the islamist kind that mohamed morsi says that he's won a claim rejected by his rival former regime official. now the official results are expected on thursday but the ruling military has already undermined the vote by issuing a decree that gives its sweeping legislative powers now with more from cairo. people are beginning to gather in tahrir square just as the muslim brotherhood candidate dr mohamed morsi makes the announcement that he has won these elections and that he is egypt's next president the muslim brotherhood claims that ninety nine percent of votes have been counted and according to their own people who were

present at all of the polling stations throughout the country their candidate came in with some thirteen point two million votes this is the equivalent of some fifty one point eight percent and they put the contender after which i think at forty eight percent now is challenging this he says that this is a deceit of the egyptian people and interestingly enough there is an independent television station here in egypt running reports that it is such a secret is in the lead and they quote independent election observers but it is worth noting that last month during those presidential elections being with them brotherhood gave its own results before the official results were announced and those results were completely accurate and no one could really predict what is going to happen after the results come through certainly the people that i've been polling the most constant reaction i get is that it doesn't matter whether it's morsi or suffolk who wins there are going to be street protests throughout egypt if morsi comes forward this does paint the scenario for

a showdown between the military and the muslim brotherhood because of course shafiq is the military candidate now the army went so far as to issue an interim constitution it has made itself effectively egypt's in all makers and it says that it will be responsible for appointing those people who were draft a final constitution these are important elections but there are a lot of questions that still remain unanswered questions such as what power will this new president have this needs to be debated in outlined in this new constitution and of course the overriding question whether or not the military will hand over powers of promises of will on the first of july and indeed even if it does will it. to control the students from assault and if yes to want to extend these two contenders have a lot of support and it's has been too difficult for predictions to be made before these elections in terms of who will come forward with an ultimate victory. live reporting right there what i mean. journalist muhammad ali says regardless of the

win a mass demonstrations against the result so far now we've got a great divide between the feet supporters of the muslim brotherhood of course dr morsi supporters in both cases are you is there will be protests no one is going to be pleased with the results because the divide is extreme in my opinion if mr shifty wins the elections there will be massive protests and demonstrations and i think a lot of the people whether or not you are muslim brotherhood supporters or revolutionaries or reformers who actually retreat to the streets of tahir and actually shout out weyerhaeuser revolution gone because you cannot have a remnant of the expert lead us into this new wave of transition but in the case that the muslim brotherhood candidate dr morsi wins there will be a lot of depressed revolutionaries and anti muslim brotherhood supporters who feel

that egypt now is now in you know embarking on and on a different level of knowledge which will actually take place if dr morsi wins. live from moscow this is our still ahead for you in this program about her decision time with the u.n. trying to lead efforts to end the syrian crisis in a separate more of unconfirmed reports and wild allegations heats up the situation . and find out how america's so-called war on terror is angering the people of pakistan you can find that out in julian assange just latest interview this tuesday here one. now the eurozone is hoping for a quick resolution in athens as a pro austerity party begins coalition talks after winning the most votes in sunday's election greece's economic troubles and their effect on global finances taking presidents for the g.

twenty leaders gathering now in mexico and the escalating violence in syria also in focus as artie's guy nature can reports. greece is on everyone's mind right now sunday elections there showed an outcome that is likely to ease fears around the world at least temporarily of a greek exit from the seventeen nation euro zone greece's economy falls out of the euro zone investors will become nervous about other financial issue you countries such as italy spain that would likely drive up borrowing costs with these countries that's already happening they'd be constantly seeking international bailouts europe would be trapped in a vicious circle that would send shock waves across the global financial system what's at the core of the problem as many see it here is nations that believe beyond their means some take it too far and the message is they should be more responsible what's interesting that you twenty summit started four years ago when america's living beyond its means brought down the global economy back then the leaders of the world's top twenty commies got together and marshal the trillion

dollars to rescue the world from the credit crisis it became clear to everyone that the world is so interconnected now that irresponsible actions of one of the countries can trigger a domino effect and have huge impact on others of course it's not just the global economy that the leaders are here for their very pressing political let's say war and peace issues on the agenda with regards to syria the ongoing violence there is of extreme concern to everyone as far as how to go forward there are some differences even big president putin and president obama are meeting early on monday is going to be the first bilateral meeting since of the russian leader took office in may and is taking place in challenging times we'll see what they will have to say washington and moscow are accusing each other of stoking violence in syria the u.s. says russia provides weapons that assad uses to kill civilians moscow rejects the claim and says it only supplied air defense systems under existing contracts russia

says the u.s. contributes to the violence in syria by ordinary arms supplies to the rebels we know that saudi arabia and qatar are actively supplying why. the syrian armed opposition groups washington is set to coordinate their efforts moscow believes those are actions that undermine kofi annan six point peace plan which calls for end of violence on all sides and dialogue both russia and the us agreed on the kofi annan peace plan which was designed to enable the series to choose their own future eventually but they see very differently on how to reach that goal president putin by the way did not attend the g eight summit in the us in may he sent the prime minister it was a signal to some that the g. twenty is now seen as a better platform for talks because it's more inclusive you have china india and other global players who also get to have a say on global affairs. he's going to have to kind of reporting right now meantime it to russian navy ships are about to sail for the syrian port of tartus to protect

its naval base an unnamed navy official quoted by a moscow news agency said that the vessels will carry an unspecified number of marines to syria the russian navy has refused to confirm the reports to us here at r.t. while the country's defense ministry had no immediate comment just last week pentagon officials said it's ready it's already rather tracking a russian ship allegedly carrying weapons on troops to the conflict torn country claims denied by moscow the u.s. had earlier backed away from hillary clinton's remarks that moscow was already supplying assad with attack helicopters as well as ati's marina portnoy now reports of those accusations are doing nothing to help the conflict ongoing in syria. as the syrian crisis becomes ever more brutal by the day. oh critics say that key players trying to resolve the conflict have been raising more questions than answers unfortunately what we're seeing is reports that aren't really relying on

the participants in one side of this conflict and that's very very dangerous because the boards when you hear only one sided information your conclusion is always in their favor there were the massacres committed and close range of over one hundred people the vast majority of them women and children some killed by heavy weapons the other killed it seems by every indication by the should be a militia is acting on behalf of the government western leaders were quick to blame the assad government for last month's houla massacre even when their own media couldn't draw the same conclusion b.b.c. world news editor john williams was in syria he reported quote the details of exactly who carried out the attacks how and why were still unclear yet the old line of blame damascus was so. still being shouted the reason that the situation on the crisis has become so good and that there is now a space for these good elements to come in and cause mayhem in syria is because the

syrian government has failed to live up to its commitments under the un i am plan its commitments to the international community as britain scolded the assad government for bypassing the peace plan the free syrian army was planning a bypass of its own demanding that joint special envoy kofi annan should quote issue a declaration announcing the failure of this plan unquote freeing the opposition to carry out military operation against the government and i'm sure you know down by did it deliberately meanwhile channel four journalist alex thompson claimed syrian rebels deliberately let him into a death trap to be killed by government forces according to thompson's account one rebel said. bradstock to market then comes the washington divide over who is aiding damascus one voice says we have confronted the russians about stopping their continued arms shipments to to syria and we are concerned about the latest

information we have that there are attack helicopters on the way from russia to syria while another says the opposite i have not seen reporting that indicates. that the russians are providing attack helicopters to the syrians i have just not seen that the us flip flop on brusha coincided with the un's fancy footwork regarding the state of syria the united nations for the first time saw a u.n. official describe the situation in syria as a civil war in an interview with reuters u.n. under-secretary general for peacekeeping operations are a lot sue confirmed that the syrian crisis could be characterized as a civil war declaration countered by the un the next day well i think it's clear that it's not for us to determine or formally. characterize the nature of the conflict in syria a conflict that many say isn't just black and white but illustrates many shades of

grey following sixteen months of conflict the united nations is leading efforts to stop the violence in syria however the information war taking place outside the country may prove to be the biggest barrier to be elusive goal of fully understanding and solving the problem marine upward non-art see new york. and i will talk continuing of military intervention in syria another country where it didn't take place is still struggling to pick up the pieces. former u.s. senator chris dodd whether he sees libya following a similar fate to iraq. he's running the place today i mean in a sense that's the the dangers in all of these things you know the devil you know the devil you don't know kind of situation so clearly it was so repressive what was occurring there and libya may have to go through a period here where you don't go if an immediate transition from ousting a brutal dictator to

a jeffersonian democrat that shows up there are periods here of transition which libya is going through that are brought painful to watch but i think russia could play a role i know they didn't want to necessarily be involved in supplying military hardware or engaging in the conflict as it was developing but i don't think that a lot of now cause you to not find a way to become involved in a constructive way to help that country get on its feet and find its center and give it an opportunity to grow and to provide some decent opportunities for people in that country so the fact that you rejected the idea of being involved in the ulster khadafi ought not to pollute it seems to me it's now turning around and say we didn't do that this is the outcome how can we be constructive and help now get this country back on its feet and stabilize it. and you can watch the full interview with former u.s. senator chris dodd in our roughly fifteen minutes time right here on alt.

well crucial talks are underway here in moscow to try to break the long running stalemate over iran's nuclear program on his meeting the group of six world powers as europe on the u.s. prepared to slap the toughest sanctions to date on the islamic republic. with the latest oh good to see you do see anything yet sir coming out of the talks that we know won't. well of course it is the first day of the third round of negotiations between the five permanent members of the u.n. security council plus germany and iran as officials scramble to try to find some sort of diplomatic agreement on iran's nuclear ambitions and avert a potential new war in the middle east though we've heard from the arabians today as a return to ration of their position that they want an acknowledgement of their right to win a ritchey radium force the billion nuclear purposes and president mahmoud ahmadinejad seemed to indicate on his website that iran would be willing to hold high level uranium enrichment if the world's powers agreed to meet its need for the fuel that he remains are also hoping that the west will scale back its sanctions which are of

course a significantly hurting out world exports and the iranian economy but the message from the real european union today was that landing in our ago against iranian oil will continue in less than two weeks this of course in addition to american banking sanctions that the west meanwhile is holding tight to its position that it came to in the last months meeting in baghdad where they're demanding the iranians halt to radio enrichment above twenty or at twenty percent which is close to weapons grade which again iran insists is for civilian purposes only and also ship some of that stockpile out of the country in exchange the west would give iran some medical supplies for its reach research reactor as well as spare parts for its airliner commercial fleet deal with the iranians to date have not said a is fair has said it's unbalanced in the words of one former iranian negotiator diamonds for peanuts so a difficult situation thus far. lucio ultimately the inevitable question is if this

round of talks fails what's next. well it really could be potentially devastating some countries are indicating this is the last chance for diplomacy before talk turns to war we've heard israel threatened again to attack iran should these talks fail the israeli president today in fact said that iran is running out of time and if things continue on its current course war would be the option and we have to keep in mind here that the u.s. president is running a tough reelection campaign and is under some serious pressure from the u.s. congress to consider the military option should there not be a breakthrough in these talks but again it's only day one of the talks are continuing and we will keep you updated of course as things progress and data hoping for a perhaps some of further developments tomorrow on day two of the top it off in central moscow thank you. well you can always ahead online to find out why iran continues to be in the cross has israel is ready to strike i know it used the international community to convince tehran that it will face

a military action if its nuclear is not stopped. also it also you got called for you the chinese get closer to creating a national space station after three astronauts successfully docked with beijing's verio no hope of doing more trouble than. he. sees. down the official altie hopefully cation your only phone on pulled talk from the. life on the. video on demand teens in line

costs. feeds now in the palm of your. question on the dot com. it is good to have you with us here on r.t. we come to you live from the heart of moscow and straight to northern garza now to kick off the world update it where israel has launched an air strike killing two men riding a motorcycle a jewish state says the attack was in response to recent sniper fire targeted suspected palestinian militants of the strike came shortly after separate clashes on the israel egypt border that left one civilian and two militants dead gunmen opened fire on vehicles used by defense contractor crews building a border fence. a bomb has torn through a bus carrying students in southwestern pakistan killing five and injuring over fifty police say the explosive was planted in a vehicle parked in a suburb of the city of quetta no group at this point has claimed responsibility

though the area is known for sectarian violence and an active militancy. printer socialist reforms after their big poll win in the country's parliamentary elections results give president francois hollande the power to fulfill his policy promise of economic growth instead of belt tightening pledge to raise taxes for large corporations instead of cutting budgets in order to tackle the european financial crisis it's the first time socialists have taken control of parliament in ten years . now i don't miss the latest episode of julian assange and his program on r.t. that will be this tuesday of course or the world's top whistle blower this time talking to him ron can pakistani anti corruption activist and politician known by some as a one man party he explains why he thinks america's war on terror has devastated his country. is

a. disaster but. it's only. one. stroke. it was like to go there would it not the puppet government so they could pursue this war on terror with an awful lot of them was blowing on. and some of that so whatever i was saying gumption went through the roof the war on terror was has been devastated by the fall of because forty thousand was and is a big get in a war we had nothing to do with it basically our own army killing own people and then then doing suicide attacks on the folks that is evidence how would you reconfigure the pakistan relationship with the united states we're going to be a complete severance what would you commit drone strikes what kind of intelligence cooperation what would you do in practice.

have better relationships based on the dignity self-respect. so it should be. it's a that is. it's not. and you can watch all the latest installment of julian assange exclusively here on. this tuesday at eleven thirty g.m.t. . the drummer in a study by the business desk good to see you today is certainly a big day for the markets any chance at all but investors are pleased with the outcome of the elections in greece yes they are already finally have some positive news for us not just football that greece is excited about anymore and it's the

fact that the probate party is now had the majority of the votes and this of course provide a major boost for investors although we are seeing the figures a slightly lower right now minimizing earlier gains if we can take a look at the latest numbers for europe will see where they stand now the first thing is gaining point three percent for the term and that is our point six percent we saw big numbers higher numbers earlier but as i said there minimize it was i was relief rally taking place but staying put the u.s. on our backs talk about it's silly as the country says that it will sell state assets and streamline government spending as part of the so-called growth to create public assets worth ten billion euros will be sold in about a month and that's to slash the country's that which is one hundred twenty percent of g.d.p. right now and the government has also approved measures to boost consumer confidence that's been crippled by tax laden austerity packages. and now a quick look at the currencies we see that a euro is

a nuisance against the dollar and we can see that the ruble is strengthening against our both major currencies this hour if we move on to. check out what's happened in there as i said of the post the science of it is done all across the board with the r.t.s. is getting point eight percent behind the my side and a half a percent now here of course investors are reacting to the latest news on greece and that's the spine of the fact that oil prices are headed lower we'll talk about that in a second the second is that the main movers of the bisects and see what's happening there we see that again in the over two percent in general banking shares of them particularly well across the board here on the russian markets where we are. dropping slightly that's mainly due to decline in the oil prices which i'll mention just a bit and also we have. over a half a percent and that's on news that it will slash have it so investment now given all the oil prices i had in lower in fact they're heading for a fifteen month low with

a light sweet is trading at around eighty three dollars per barrel breadlines at around ninety six dollars per barrel as i said they are heading for the fifty month low that we have there and that's as a rise in spanish borrowing costs are curb and demand for commodities because the lower the dollar is rising the higher now also when though that last week top rating agencies downgrades for some major european economies that even though the situation is stable when the comes to russia no downgrades inside the banking system some of the underestimate in fact we spoke to richard haynesworth from the moscow base rating agency and here explained why that is if you look at the ridge ratings of russian banks. by the big three agencies with a level a credit level on average but correspond to a default about one in five the default ratio is about one in fourteen and that's

not great but it's not one in five three times. that means the cost. of the russian buy more expensive which means general russian bonds of course less for the investor and. for the borrower and that means that russian banks have been discriminated against in the international market. and that's. always a pleasure. if you can please do stay with us here and i'll see the headlines in just a moment by a close up chat with former u.s. senator chris dodd libya syria the g. twenty all up for discussion.
