ensconced in the country's london embassy meanwhile the final edition of his interview show is set to air on our t.v. tuesday up next paula sleep interviews a former front runner for egypt's presidency for his take on what the future holds for the country stay with us. with me i have a moose a presidential candidate in egypt's recent elections and also the former head of the arab league so thank you very much for joining us here on our team many people were surprised that you did not make it through to the second round of the recent presidential elections why do you think you did not do as well as expected i was among those who were astonished that i didn't make it but this is the more prosy. old. there is a guarantee then there are going to. but i'm glad that the democratic

process has started. and the elections would observe by the international arab and this is the society organizations in egypt i have my own reasons will be i understand what happened and. things were managed in the last few days but my concern is not this my concern is that the democrats also should not be and especially at this stage where we are just starting. so i am glad that things went that way to there been much better had they been in the race. in the second round but that is immaterial compared to the process itself and the preservation of the initiative towards most of the revolution failed in the relation in your words it was supposed to achieve democracy why do you think it was and able to sustain itself. because of so many sticks and their mistakes were committed by all

parties to the egyptian scene. where you cannot accuse one party of the model but i say that the mistakes they had evolution baby. it was of course subject to do a hijacking from the very post but to the oneness of the goal which is to put an end to the form of the gene called everybody together it was not completely observed noticed understood that the forces of then they force of innovation one city of the gene came to its and and the former president decided to work at the gate differences assault and many forces from the right especially the right attempted to speak on behalf of their revolution and i was accurate and that was see many in the many

organisations and unions and bodies that to clean each one of the claim to represent the evolution and they were talking past each other. if you can which is political they just couldn't have a nation have worked what was needed for it to achieve its goals i believe one body one head of it and clear boards. and. the. know that to be able to compete and get into the parliament and compete and get into the government but december of voices the different logics and the different emphasis and be at them still hijack it to the effect that they called the bottom and elected parliament be part of the punishment told that it was . so and that was

a bit strange that evolution was utterly just. so. the misconception that misunderstanding be missed the presentation of things however i would want you to know. but regardless of the absence of the presence of the ocean. actual presence the spirit of revolution has to get. the feeling that this is a different guy and different era and different philosophy and different goals. this spirit is still there so i don't not think that the egypt into the ocean was defeated. but it was definitely. subject to a lot of pressure it will still be. there for us to finish off that it was sure but its spirit and the general feeling that we have already and

a bit different. is today what does a scene will mean for egypt are you concerned that egypt will become a more is announced state. and i believe there will be a lot of. disagreement on that point. egypt is not solely to be anything but the simplistic it means that the successful or period of president morsi by what it would do to the with the problems of egypt rather than get into a political book about the philosophy of the muslim brotherhood are you concerned by the growing islamic fundamentalism in the region no question. but the point is that this is a religion not politics politics or something against the government has to be a civilian civil government this is what i believe in. we live in the twenty first

century we have problems in our country in our region will have to be to them with all the ways and means that we see fit into that it is something it's. we need a civil state we need a mother. and egypt that all. multiples of jews are stuck in one thousand nine hundred three constitution. of thought to. be independent so. lead to the ship for the power of the presidential or put into the region what about the but a government that has the constitution as its sole reference mother gets only because of. the judiciary and. independence up to push it is so important and by. human rights and fundamental freedoms rights of

women all this all those principles should be shot in trying in addition to being the discrimination on the exits and in addition to the basic nature of the. of the religion that it has its all but as defined in the constitution i think. that the military has made itself responsible for one thousand new constitution are you confident that the military will be able to give the people a constitution that exceeds somebody that's going to write the constitution it's a constituent assembly that will have to wait and see what that simply will be albeit it was a vision by all factions of our society nobody expects that many people had it was the amendments to the constitution because he's an old and. that all

is good at intervals it is because of that with egypt that the military will choose the people who will want this constitution well and they know we have a committee. already in place it will seal the simply but the tests there's some controversy around it so we'll see what kind of proposals that the supreme council come up with but we many of us have their own opinions about it so it will be that the minute we would just zero point they would say that they were going some as a way expect you waved of the arab league for a decade how then do you explain the arab league's stance on syria which has surprised many look at the situation in syria is different than the solution if you and the arab league played an important or maybe a little too believe that waiting for change and see the civilians. it was supposed

to but also devoted to see that it is different because of the sort of situation of syria and that none of the countries surrounding syria or that it would usually in riyadh egypt and tunisia to the east and west move in a suitable evolution so that the neighborhood was already there really to support the evolution in there and be. as a whole syria at many countries around it and you could see that things would get out of hand. but that does this put to change this is the year of change and change is very big to get them all be forced into expression out of spain. already had that expression of that kind is this real change and change is that in it and change is a historical development it is not just is for if it so is

a myth of time in my opinion that change we could take place in syria especially after the two what happened then you can look at that score it's a bit to get that school one to be accepted. maybe post. doesn't amount to be a serious assumption that we want to share but i believe this is that like a good there is no other plan that is no plan and there's no wisdom to that photo of the city and that is a load of bull it's basically a load of this on a monday because of what to do see a. test that might that be natural development of things we believe it's true that what happened and not at each applied all go back to school one that eats and those who get that this is to blame for change and change is to be able to game and city is no exception and we said thank you very much for

joining us here on ati thank you. they've been living these who ways since the seventeenth century. their rituals are strict. their communities are isolated. they clearly distinguish between their own and the alien. and guard their family and things as a treasure. excuse me can i speak with you sir let me explain by sort of i don't run don't agree you don't agree we don't have to look for other names my son isn't isn't in the arena i don't know

what has come to be our greatest priority for us there. it's an honor to share a new country. with a country isn't jewish. the moon or hope to help you find me. you find in so many own says more. and meet some seems. to me. to. just say. six.

thank you very much not welcome to the world of sports here is what we've got for you last on the grosse yellow universe nina stuns five time wimbledon champion venus williams compadre and maria sharapova is also in toronto with the all england club. italian job these are already reached the last fall of euro two thousand and twelve a penalty shootout victory over english. and spanish supremely fernando long moved to the top of the formula one standings following a thrilling european growth freeway in investments. starting with tennis where maria sharapova has put her place in the second round of wimbledon the russian looking for back to back grand slams after winning the french open last month on day one of the all england club the new world number one was in dominant form as she sent imus to syria right in overpacking in straight sets six two six three the

school line of the more there was an even more impressive victory for another russian. elena some five time champion venus williams packing in straight sets six one six three the storyline in favor of the answer to twenty five year old up next part of our mascot or a bronze go williams meanwhile is left to reflect. the first largely created she played were made hardly any errors in service so he knows. obviously i would like to have won the match but that didn't happen today. or advance go their way to resonate in the second round this after the world number three overcame mark the right product of slovakia six three six three. on the only day that when wins for u.s. open champion sound stosur. suarez navarro in straight sets well four time grand slam winner kim clijsters is taking on former world number one goal a young which russian you caterina color is currently playing reality of italy and

as you can see the color of the top of the first set meanwhile in the men's draw russian mikhail youzhny is into the second round in twenty six c. it's a come from the second down against american donald young well down to three roger federer had no problems are going spain's algo ramos and russian igor andre always on court again all of a golding golding has taken the first step but i'm very of the second and his compatriot makes return of his taking on florian meyer of germany and as you can see florian my is closing in on a straight sets victory. in the mean time world number one a top seed under-funding champion novak djokovic completed. straight sets six three six three six one finished. for one hour where we now know the semifinal lineup at euro two thousand and twelve italy securing the last spot following a penalty shoot out victory over england on sunday it was the italians who had dominated both the normal and extra time in kiev in the post three times but

neither team could find the back of the net penalty shoot out was needed to decide to tie italy with enough force so much to the delight in rome alexandra de amanti the hero after missed english efforts from ashley young and told us through to the last fall where they will face germany. where for further analysis on the game and the tournament as a whole partridge caught up with the chief football writer a british newspaper the daily mirror martin lipton first stating that italy were deserving winners. in the first fifteen minutes they were by far the better team england showed great courage to visit great desire in the end it wasn't quite good enough and of course the familiar feeling from twelve yards so how do you think italy would do against germany that. they could have a twenty percent chance germany or sensational are the best team in the children pirlo today was magnificent germany won't give in that sort of space i don't think if they were even if they played twenty percent better than that i don't really fancy having you some of your germany spain final so you say spain so what makes

you think that the portugal can't do it i don't think the ball enough to run out or he's there for he can hurt spain no question he's been the player of the children so far for. spain just smother the life hurting they did it to france saturday and i think they'll do it again on wednesday. into next to portugal so if it's germany against spain he's going to be the winner of year eighty thousand to twelve i hope germany because of the football they play they're the most exciting vibrant team in the in the whole children they play the. role they want to do is hurt you spain on the ball beautiful to watch they don't excite they don't get the pulse is stirring germany do and in this particular tournament do you think has been the biggest disappointment so far of germany are but as you say the stars think holland because everyone expects them to do better i think to a degree russia who should have got for everyone their first go for one they should have qualified comfortably loving going home and once again i have to say france because their attitude has been pretty awful and finally how do you feel about you

his decision to held your eighty thousand child in ukraine and poland i understand you've been based mainly in part of the what are your thoughts on the tournament the stadium to be fantastic the people have been wonderful the infrastructure is a mess but that doesn't matter it's been a fantastic football tournament and you can cop a moan and complain sometimes this is just the court is this has been a wonderful wonderful few weeks for countries who never get this opportunity again they've made the most of it so should we all martinet in the. you very much indeed for your thoughts and that's martin lipton the chief football writer at the daily mirror in london what is commiserations to england but congratulations to italy after they get through forty penalties a partridge there from outside the olympic stadium in kiev so the last four teams left to fight it out for european glory on the battle of the iberian peninsula first off with all the spain going up against christiane always portugal of wednesday and don't forget the following night then sees italy and germany do battle in warsaw for the other final place. that's my sport where fernando alonso

has become the first driver this formula one season to win two races the spaniard claiming victory in an action packed european grand prix in valencia a stunning drive seeing the two time champion work his way up from eleven from the great he then took full advantage when red bull sebastian vettel who started on pole stalled on the track midway through the race can be right in and of lotus finish second michael schumacher completed the podium after lewis hamilton and pastor maldonado collided on the penultimate lap afterwards along as i described this victory as one of the best of his career. really really proud to be spun his boredom of the moment and winning in a spin this. probably the best. in terms of for most who's nothing may be compared to his one now in athletics justin gatlin has run the second fastest time this year in the one hundred meters he won the united states olympic trials the thirty year old clocked his personal best of nine point eight zero seconds beating tyson gay by six one hundredth of

a second gallon you remember tested positive for excessive testosterone in two thousand and six received a four year ban and missed the beijing olympics but he says he's back on track and ready for the london games. after a lot of worries over the past year or so like i said a season redemption and. road you know that my journey i just really focused on just honing in just sticking to what i know in going out there and just being a fast runner. and finally russia is a women's a big volleyball team have qualified for the un paid games for the very fast time the squad booking their place by beating time and favors the netherlands in the continental cup they were in. this competition was a real chance for russia to make history in the sport after a hard fought three two win over switzerland in the semi's they faced the dutch in the final with a place at the olympics at stake the best of five contest started wobbly for russia's first time then team and as the sea of ice in the and. failed to break

down holland's jewel of madeline mccann link and sophie from guest and team russia wind down one nil but that didn't stop russia from making full use of their home advantage russia's second tandem call of and they cut it even made like work of the two games beating both dutch teams two zero and two one with advantage now firmly with the home team and a boy in the crowd behind their backs team boston and was a call for rectified the only slip up to be called as we can do a twenty one to twelve not only was it a fine win over the tournament favorites it was also sweet revenge for team russia having lost out to the netherlands back in the zoning stage of the competition in twenty eleven i simply cannot put our joy into words we're so happy i don't know what else to say most of all i would like to say thanks to all our fans it's a big advantage to be playing at home and i'm so pleased with all the support it definitely helped us win. in the battle for bronze switzerland soft italy with

three games to one ensuring they will get another crack at allin because occasion i think we have that sound. a game we have to make here is normal but if we play well and good there is always the ten second beach volleyball tournament of three in quick succession now seems justified as russia's women's beach volleyball team proved the country can compete with the world's best even if there's no beach in sight no gold here on the continent cup means that russia had to give themselves a place on the plane to this summer's olympics for the first time ever in the netherlands as well as what's on continually we're also on the morning of the first half of the winter then finally being called langholm but which will also be held in the russian capital but seemingly just cannot get enough of beach volleyball at the moment and the tournament starts on the twenty eighth of june. monsoons move.
