turkey threatens decisive action after admitting one of its warplanes was shot down by air defenses while flying what's thought to have been a stealth mission over the syrian coast. tough choice for ecuador which says it won't allow political persecution or bend under pressure its decision over the request from the world's top whistleblower judas for saddam. and egypt's muslim brotherhood brings tens of thousands to square demanding the delayed presidential runoff result now protesting against the ruling military's hold on power. internationally isn't comment twenty four hours

a day this is out. syrian air defenses have destroyed a turkish fighter jet off the ballot to desperation the country's north and her however is now vowing decisive action in response well let's talk to a correspondent in damascus very financially for more on this developing story. both turkey and syria have now confirmed the turkish fault it was downed by syrian military but still the countries have different views on why and how it happened we are hearing from local media here in damascus that syrian military officials are saying that they acted according to international law because the plate did violate the regulation and did and to the syrian airspace and they also say that the plane has been flying at low all to toot and at the very hall it's feet which is the case when a choice to hold a different system greater need to keep saying that it has moved on to radio and very different to the military might well it was flight over the turkish fault in

the training for the in the emergency meeting of the country's security council we've been hearing from the turkish prime minister as a gonzo face that turkey is ready to take all measures necessary decisively when the details of this incident emerge so we're hearing such a strong statement while the decisions to you but we have to understand that this incident has come at the time of increased dollars here in syria in this new development with nato a nato member of falling to church dollar and of course may provoke even through the escalation and may even lead to catastrophe we've been hearing from the alliance issue for us missing about possible intervention in case of. a so for. low pay for the saudis failing to find a unified solution to any and support to you and who will and many experts now say that these recent incident could be used by nato as

a pretext to start. turning the. mind of. the syrian revolution we've been hearing low too many reports about rebels we stationed in and training there would be hearing a lot about weapons being smuggled through. to see recorded and just recently the information the cia stopped being based in the southern part of the country not far from the syrian border called an eighteen weapons smuggling and help in the rebels was recruiting that was provided that. information strategic information on the movements of the syrian army so syria turkey has been involved in this conflict over its neighbor and the question just remains open how far took you will go to topple the regime it has been condemning repeatedly. and powerful in academic and middle east specialist says the intrusion into syrian airspace by a turkish warplane was no accident. i don't think it's simply

a reconnaissance mission it isn't though certainly prole. syrian security initiative and ability to protect its border. is utilized. wide by the u.s. to turkey and of course. the united states and turkey can claim syria. attacked it. would be rude by which they would you know are as if they wanted to further intervene so what you have here is a complete. intervention and to the pharmacy of syria and part of there is largely to do then you have to do many quarreling into the area and then ultimately attack iran libya and syria or opportunistic addition to this

plan. especially when the peace envoy kofi annan has reiterated that iran has a role to play in mediating an end to the violence in syria the comments it was made after a slew of the clear ations from western leaders opposing tehran being given any such role but a point now has more of the envoys used in exactly one month the u.n. supervision mission in syria will expire and at this point the international community is attempting to exhaust all options one of those options according to joint special envoy kofi annan is to form a contact group meeting one that could take place as soon as june thirtieth in geneva joint special envoy kofi annan says that in that contact group it would be a meeting of the permanent members of the security council members of the european union and also countries that have had direct influence on the opposition group in syria as well as the syrian government mr kofi annan says that he has. made it

clear that he believes that iran should be part of that contact group part of a solution that the international community would like to see in syria now or the u.s. and its western allies were very much against sitting down to table with iran or having iran play a role in solving the crisis in syria mr noms comments are calm as there are fresh reports about the slaughter of some twenty five men near the northern city of aleppo in syria from what has been described in by accounts from the opposition and syrian state media there rebels in syria were responsible for this ambush of course a thorough independent investigation has not been conducted yet but what is quite clear is that the massacres in cities throughout syria are getting bolder

with signs of immense brutality the violence officials have been warning is is getting to a very dire point and at this point the u.n. mission in syria remains suspended with limited activity for weeks to go before potentially expires so there may be a conference meeting among many nations at the end of this month and that is something that joint special envoy kofi annan believes that iran should be a part of. welcoming to this booze confuse their surrogates with twenty twelve his own health and support for funds for just a good excuse for a big drinking contest. every year. two hundred thousand jobs that's a lot yeah it is eight bucks in the big apple the resident of knowledge of pay packet really does mean more happiness and a greater sense of success. ecuador has recalled its ambassador

to the u.k. for consultations over an asylum plea from the wiki leaks editor jude in the sun the president of the latin american state says it's being closely discussed with other governments involved and faces extradition from britain that to sweden where he fears he could eventually be sent to the u.s. . in shit she reports now from ecuador's capital peter. all along the sun has been claiming that his case was politically motivated denying sex crime allegations for which he's wanted for questioning in sweden and it's exactly those claims of political nature of the case that are being tara we looked into here in ecuador where there's still no sign that a decision is on the way now president rafael correa says ecuadorian authorities are assessing if there's a real threat to a songes life the latin american leader has stressed that ecuador rejected the penalty so if he finds there are strong grounds to songes fears of being ultimately

extradited to the united states he might decide the whistleblower needs protection if you are pretty you know if we have to see if there's any death threats against julian assange we have turned a life his reasons for requesting asylum if he's had due process ecuador is a country that rejects prosecution for ideological motives no he. lost his extradition appeal to the u.k. supreme court at best it could delay his removal from the u.k. but either we could accept it there is ultimately handed over to sweden is likely to be detained immediately that's what i saw said himself in his first public comments since he took refugee in the ecuadorian embassy on tuesday after having spent eighteen months under house arrest without charge that we could be excited to add it is not looming extradition to sweden that worries him the most but he's possible removal to the united states where he claims he is the subject of grand jury proceedings he also said that the u.k. and sweden deliberately slowed down his case to allow us time to drop charges

against him for leaking hundreds of thousands of secret u.s. documents while ecuador might hope to be seen as a defender these are the ideas by accepting the world's number one whistleblower as a political refugee it could be made to suffer for its actions for example it's been suggested that ecuador is trade with united states and consequently thousands of jobs my suffer immensely if the latin american countries shelters are signs. obviously there is a lot more to these than rules the eye we have to wait and see how does a seemingly never ending saga plays out. when us aren't accuses australia of a lack of involvement in his case saying he has had no consular contact except for text messages to december twenty ten where sydney based journalist mary costa kiedis says the authorities there have never wanted to protect their controversial citizen for do so hasn't tried that's the problem to state has an obligation to its citizens to protect their human rights we live in an advanced western democracy

we expect our government to act in a way that's principled and courageous and to show leadership in the protection of human rights westralia has lost all moral authority to lecture other countries on human rights i think it's a very sad day for our country if the fact is that sweden has a rather different arrangement with the us to the u.k. so it will be easier to get to the us from sweden but let's not ignore the facts we've been has covertly handed over people to the us handed over side of it is to the cia those people were tortured and in the end. it was a case of mistaken identity so swings track record is not good we have a lot more faith in the u.k. legal system and in due process thing followed in the u.k. but a sounders place in a strange year he needs to be back here. well we've been following the case against

sound since the very beginning so you can trace it back on our website artie dot com there are some other stories you might also take a look at while a noble way of tracking the dutch party says hackers should warn websites before bringing them down suggesting an internet use could be legalized. dance with someone just to get home if they're stranded one woman in the u.s. call the cops to claim she'd moved. but not more on the story online r.t. dot com. tens of thousands have rallied in egypt protesting against what they call a blatant power grab by the ruling military council they support the muslim brotherhood the presidential candidate demanding the release of the vote results which has been today by the election commission was incorrect. well i was living the you know when and the do whatever with the other

way they were told we were in between bombs shall we can leave the union in the union measure why which is the reason why we're there we my hunch is the do you really want the you to have issues that well either the d.v.d. or you think we could be in the you know we do you want to challenge the issue we show you know why either we've really wound the injuries in the engine on the enemy

with the why do you meet me in the gym in the wish i was in the do you want to do we have the do you want the you're in the way the issue that would have been more in the in the the wish the the. thank you i didn't. know if i didn't.

put a slip that well we're keeping a close eye on developments in egypt for you to get up to date by logging on to our facebook page and twitter feeds we have got all the very latest. if. while football fans revel in the thrills on the pitch in you're twenty twelve others have been excited because the tournament terrell's weeks of heavy drinking are to sara first found out whether but if supporters know when enough enough is.

and so they use the tickets in a better place to catch the game than down the local pub watching football in the pub can be absolutely fantastic it's a great big communal shared experience and with many great games in big hundreds of people there's not been an ounce of trouble just a fantastic atmosphere and if you can't be there a lot of people feel it's the kind of the next best thing certain things like knights. could turn ugly but when it's right is a wonderful way to watch football having a pint watching the game is part of the english drinking culture and thousands of books in london's bars and pubs whatever. we're always responsible drinking. exactly. but the stats say something very different.

is a big problem for us and over all we've lost. and when we move around. every year the london ambulance service operates. very drunk on the regular service alcohol recovery centers. on a friday and saturday night extra services are now being provided in britain big football games especially. for the euro. and behavior from drunken english football fans can be more than a little. before we go up. because what happens. to most people when they're drunk

if you're not yourself as well. africa that by providing this service that more calls to the taxpayer is the british government scoring a goal by catering for the problem rather than tackling it head on and england's better than expected performance has meant more people out drinking and being a weekend time to get drunk because of the later kick off when you take sport and alcohol and you put them together generally speaking you'll find it doesn't matter whether your team's winning or losing in general people will use that as an excuse to drink and so our advice is to keep an eye on how much you're drinking. tournament not just going but actually let's remember that the tournament lasts for three weeks so if you're drinking a lot each guy name actually i've got three week period you're leaving might have taken a bit of a battering with p.z. fans letting the side down by being such a burden to the health service many feel it's high time english football supporters

say that up serve. london. now look at some other stories making headlines around the world paraguayans president fernando has been ousted from office after a five hour trial in the country's vice president sworn in to take his place the senate voted to impeach him over his handling of a forced landing fiction last week in which seventeen police officers and farmers died his dismissal has sparked protests in the country's capital clashes between supporters and the thought is. leaders of germany france italy and spain have agreed to push for growth package with one hundred thirty billion euros as a means to kickstart the euro zone's recovery they met in rome ahead of next week's crucial e.u. summit. leaders hope to create a united front that could force a consensus in the union. italy's prime minister mario monti warned that if the summit fails so when that borrowing costs in europe continue to rise and weaker

economies will face increased pressure. protests from i believe in police demanding better paying have spread throughout the country with four thousand officers taking over the rest began on thursday around thirty to lease and their wives season unit at quarters close to the presidential palace in two thousand and three revolt over wages in the same place where the current protest started their top gun fighter surrenders which killed nineteen people. now it seems that no matter what country you live in the amount you earn is always a top priority party's a resident asked people in new york how much it would take to make them feel happy and if it's ever possible to be completely satisfied with their salary. how much of an annual salary would make you feel successful this week let's talk

about that thirty five. euro per year that would be enough for you i think it would be good seventy five thousand here on a grand hundred grand it's forty thousand dollars some preserve the fund really serves five with forty thousand dollars to rent a better hundred fifty thousand per couple or so that would make you feel like that's what i would say probably. two hundred thousand dollars that's a lot but yeah this is why do people want so much money and in the united states we think about is consumption but everyone knows that the things that you own own you and that the simple life can make you happy why does no one subscribe to that it's just philosophical it's what we grew up with it's what we were trained with it's what we believe do you think the answer varies from country to country in terms of success or i'm sure it does so what do you think on the scale americans fit and.

do we need more money or less money more. yet because we have all the stuff especially in america a mother is everything america is the money we like to live you know because we. can live well you know schoolteachers to definitely earn more banks why do you think that schoolteachers earn so much less than people who don't necessarily add as much value as you do i think it's because we're just good natured and we are caring and we don't we're not in it for the money so yes so those kinds of jobs are going to get paid less because you're not greedy as much money as i need. to live healthy and with my family in good shape. and and to be lucky i think that's that's all i don't need that much money no more than that no not more than that do you think if you made more than that you'd be happier that's though i think you spend what you make so no matter what you're just going

to spend what you make yes so if you make eighty thousand dollars you're going to spend more i'm going to spend more and i'm getting a bigger house and a bigger boat and everything else to go with it we don't need that stuff. yes a few of the top the bottom line is your annual salary might increase but that doesn't mean your happiness will necessarily increase with that. thought there are no meeting of economic heavy hitters the st petersburg forum is wrapping up in russia's new capital. and you have a drinkers following events in st petersburg for us dmitri want to see the highlights. well basically the first day of the st petersburg forum is a last minute chance to run around and hand out your business cards because the

indeed the forum is wrapping up but it is the most important economic event of the year well at least in russia because nowhere else would you get so many celebrities of the business and government seen all under the same roof together this combined with the splendid venue that is st petersburg all russia's so-called northern capital and some very bright weather in the white nights so basically the only mood spoiler was the backdrop of the european debt crisis and that was the elephant in the room every discussion every round table every conversation that starts with an assessment of the risks and just how serious the situation in the euro zone is you see you. with a longer term the growth john does across the euro zone are a bigger worry to me there's a lot of koreans from asia that has to take place for europe to get competitive and i think that's something that russia has to pay attention to when you're in the euro zone and demography of would be against you the population is aging i think

that go combined with work rules and retirement ages and other social codes customs are not globally competitive is a bad mix and so a lot of changes take place. so first of let's just come back from the g. twenty summit in mexico start it is a plenary sessions beach which was the highlight of the forum with basically the assessment of just how serious obviously the situation is now there's a big need for drastic not hof measures and a unified approach to solving the crisis now russia needs to prepare for the worst even though we're not necessarily as the person said they're heading for a financial apocalypse but russia needs to go to go through a lot. economic reform notably liberalizing the economy privatizing states and companies moving away from oil and gas and creating a budget which is not based on the oil price and that was a very correct but basically assessment because over these three days of the

four we've had a well prices drop to ninety dollars per barrel which is very much the russian ruble it fell. by more than a more than two percent to three year lows right now and we've caught up with the finance minister anton see a lot of these basically calm this down by saying that everything is perfectly normal. the current exchange rate of the ruble is within the range of the rate been defined by the central bank and it's not even at the top end of it you know so the weakening of the ruble that we recently saw is within the regulators bring with it and i think that the central bank sanctions are. in the current situation. but i have to say none of these factors of affected that much the mood of people over here in st petersburg because we've had billions of dollars worth of deals signed here notably in the in the infrastructure sector with basic elements signing

a deal with jan be a chinese company to reform and the modernized airports in the south of russia also very important deals in the construction business doing a road building high speed roads between moscow and st petersburg and in the pharmaceutical sector so indeed the forum has been a success kerry. ok thanks for that to make sure. well that in a few moments i'll be back with headlines of followed by a special report on the first battle against the nazis the soviet union at two in georgia in article two one.
