it was an honor we. we wanted to present. something of. the people decide international powers meeting in geneva called for a move towards a political solution to syria's bloody civil war backing the idea of a transitional government but. with syrian opposition claiming they can be no solution unless president bashar assad steps down fears are growing here in damascus that the latest peace initiative forward in geneva will only remain a solution on paper. german chancellor angela merkel is forced into ray u.-turn as a tele and spain window find for lower boring rates on bailout loans. and as the european union's a brother on a rainy unoiled cake sent tehran says it's been stockpiling money and goods as

a buffer against sanctions from brussels. hello welcome to r.t. twenty four hour news live from moscow i'm year shapovalov with the latest news and a review of the week's events a transitional governing body is the latest solution put forward to end syria's bloody internal conflict the idea was agreed at an emergency international meeting held in geneva on saturday then forces of the new plan is for syrian people to decide the face the fate of the country for themselves with no demands for regime change. has been falling about this for. it's been a diplomatic roller coaster from the start it's been going through ups and downs and even before this conference in geneva. russia's foreign minister said met with

hillary clinton in st petersburg after that meeting he said she changed her position but then she wasn't really at the media conference following that meeting . meeting to confirm that so it wasn't really clear then the conference in geneva much longer than initially expected nobody really nobody really knew what's going to what was going to come out of it in the end they did end up signing this document sixteen months so a very long time and since the beginning russia has been saying this is an internal matter for syria and no outsiders could order you know solution to the situation there and. it's a mystery why it took so long for the international community to agree because now it's reflected in this final document it took all these vetoes and discussions it's just unclear really why it took these sixteen months. we consider it the utmost importance that this document does not seek to dictate to the syrian sites how the

transition process should happen politically how exactly this process will take place is up to the syrian people this document is very precise. while the idea of this plan is the syrian people and that's the most important part syria will establish this transition governmental body which will include all sides of the conflict wealthy authorities and all groups within the opposition including the rebels then. they will have a new constitution and democratic elections everything will be monitored by the united nations and specifically by un special envoy kofi annan is also planning to visit syria and for talks with both sides but the bottom line right now is that the international community was able to reach this understanding it's vital for this unity to be sustained and even if some new interpretations do appear then it's all inked in this document. meanwhile some of syria's opposition groups have already

rejected the proposal the syrian national council described it as a waste of time ruling out a new rule of power sharing settlement involving president assad and he's very. syrian opposition has already criticize harshly and agreements reached by world powers we can't engineer to beg to be able to and the ongoing crisis the sixteen months long crisis here in syria we've been hearing from both syrian national council turkey faced opposition umbrella and free syrian army military when all of the opposition that can be no solution unless president bashar al assad steps aside we haven't heard any official reaction from damascus so far but of course kept to says it is growing and fears a growing. opposition now claiming they will not accept him tearing government if

i saw it and his closest allies will also take part in. this latest peace initiative into neighbor with all they remain as solution pay for we have been able to speak to all of the people here on the streets of damascus and they've been saying that all they want is peace and security and safety to come back to the country they don't oppose as part of this government if only this helps to stop the violence here in the country this is indeed a very ugly conflict syria and the ugliest thing is that if children are being involved now in this crisis here's my report on that this is a place for these kids boys and girls is at the playground and someone dressed them in a mill she uniform hung them with real guns to teach them what to say and in front of camera you know this little girl. maybe five years old and she's almost

crying as people behind the camera her and other kids to chant and slogans out of nineteen kids for me. this is just me. and a series of clips posted online showing the ugly face of war and fold in the country recent u.n. report says both sides in the syrian conflict the rebels from the free syrian army and the government are using children in their fight. we can see children among your son demonstrators. four year old a young is praising his motherland and this is a microphone the kids carrying not a kalashnikov. very young his father couldn't imagine that his youngest son is participation in apache artic rally would put all his family in danger and lead to the murder of his other two children and

if they threatened us many times once the road on the house as well that that time has come then they sent me a symbolic look then they put the picture of reality on facebook as promising five hundred thousand syrian pounds to those who bring him to them we couldn't imagine they'll come to our home and not let me in i mean in mars and wanted to prepare for exams and went to sleep in the living room which is not and this is where they smashed first out they were shootings and they cried a lot market and i hid under the bed. and i was crying because they killed years and i miss him a lot i managed to me is eldest son was shot dead on the way to hospital as he was trying to get help to his injured brother little rayyan escaped death only because that night he stayed with his grandparents in the letters about me they wanted to kill a song like a hula and then see this is the government usually valinor if this is the freedom if you are not with. the funerals of the two teenagers had been on the guard

this is what they do here in syria the family says when someone dies as a martyr not mine is that it's true not losing a thing that's enough for a lost a lot not ready to lose anymore how you doing some updated. when a young man has three more brothers left he has something to lose in this cemetery we've found at least eight fresh graves small ones but in the rubble kids are becoming victims of grown up games in this conflict they've been used as human shields they've been forced to take up arms and they've been killed for a purpose they barely understand and no one can say for sure how many more will die until a ways found to stop the violence. r.t. reporting from syria. there we go now this way the german chancellor angela merkel dubbed the euros from maine or mr no where seem to taze to feed for the first time

in years so it was decided at an e.u. summit to give brussels the power to pump taxpayer money into failing bias without governments having a say chancellor merkel strongly opposed this move but was forced to give in after insistence from spain and italy their leaders for claimed a breakthrough this week also saw the ratification of europe's new fiscal pact which says even tougher budget rules and nigel farage the u.k. independence party as leader says that merkel has her own reasons for making the concessions. it is perfectly clear that the brussels machine does dance to the german team and smaller countries are very frightened of going against really in the end what angela merkel says the focus always is on germany you know will merkel blink or not what germany is saying is that all the member states of the euro zone should abolish their democracies should have bullets their independence surrender their birth rights and give it all to a super bureaucrat to push on to

a full fiscal union to a full political union indeed to be union that will be absolutely dominated by germany and was a magic formula giving away control of everything to one person will solve everything. and our coal face is trying by a clash in her homeland where some lawmakers filed suit saying they're fiscal parked in trees on the powers of german deputies and at the grassroots level the german people who drive the economy aren't happy about giving bailouts jar the nation's as well arty's oksana boyko report it's a job interview with you political implications and here is this family has been running these greek restaurant for almost three decades ever since they immigrated to germany hard work and self-reliance made it is success but now they are under increasing pressure to share the fruits of their labor. the problem is that in greece that. they come here and like the money in the street but

we're also working very hard. working from the morning till night every day they get a dozen of calls from their greek can patch or requests for money jobs of both some like a small attack is just walking in a restaurant owner himself he lost his business last year and ever since has been out of permanent work like about twenty two percent of greeks there is the second world war and destroy. our country from troops so they'll be million of people is the german. not to help but to pay while references to the countries nats of past have appeared more than once in the great coverage of the bailout germans remain unswayed in their position to pay for somebody else's debt polls consistently show that the majority of germans are strongly against financing increases for spain's bailout is one customer at

this restaurant put it before placing an order one should check not only the menu but also his wallet some say this bleed of opinions between the power and the public represents a test of germany's democratic system democracy begins at home begins in the russia begins. really begins in italy and spain they have a national parliament and this is. it and if there's a common currency this is taking. decisions in terms of money in terms of budget it's a violation of democracy now and very assertive now. is destroying democracy they said peace to be hard work. but in the case if europe's most productive country seems just never stop coming in the artsy

just days before the country's first direct call for congress which will be tasked to oversee a new government once elected but activist and journalist c count chandan says there's little sign of a democratic process. the elections are about to come about in libya in a few days but i don't think it's a sign of any democratic progress in libya because all indicators which should be there which would lead to you know that a healthy democracy would be taking place are absent so what we have is that the relative persecution of women's right relative to what happened in the gadhafi persecution of old libyans who are being persecuted on the basis that they are loyal by and by but by dint of the pigmentation of their skin to gadhafi we have in for tribal warfare a good law we have four hundred militias all across libya there is no there's no law and order there's no security so this is this is far from any basis of a true people focus democracy but this is the nature of the n.c.c. nato democracy and this is the nature of the democracy that nato want to bring to

all the peoples of the global south the government of mali has appealed to the united nations to take action after al-qaeda linked extremists discharge holy sites in the city of timbuktu they west african nation has been constant attacks has seen by the constant attack since it was taken over by a military giant in march madness text that by you know me as a kiwi blames the nation backs revolution in neighboring libya for the financing. all of this of course is related to the war that was waged against libya last year during two thousand and eleven which brought about the displacement of many of the two out forces who have been settled in libya for many many years they were well armed and of course with them entering the situation inside of northern mali it's further destabilizing polarize the situation inside the north of the currency and of course affected the capital up of moscow as well if the us is not going to be in

libya last year we would not have the current situation that we have right now in mali. the deadline for drilling our songes extradition to sweden has passed but the whistleblower remains holed up in a quarter was in the same london has defined a british police demands to turn himself in he waits for a decision on his asylum plea acquittals president says considering their quest takes time as he has to weigh all possible outcomes a soldier's main fear is that sweden might hunt him over to the u. was where he would face the death penalty for publishing leaked american secrets in a while ecuadorian embassy around the globe received scores of messages with calls to approve their appeal and civil adman's they found over the national security also blowers coalition says the u.s. is ready to pull any strings to prevent the weekly visits. mostly what's happening right now is the political side and you have to realize that they may be and this

is the ecuador getting all sorts of letters that the titians activists around the world put on the other hand they are also getting a list of all to made them send troops from the united states so the rest assured they right now as we speak the state department is in the ecuador plan to think about by joy what kind of consequences they will be facing whether it's the economic or whether it's political and so this is the reason they are taking this long and we are hoping that their decision will be yes they would grant asylum to giuliana's lunch but considering the weight the united states carries also considering that he's three of our nation in terms of the types of measures they take to put pressure on the other governments it will remain to be seen. don't forget that your license hosts his own interview program right here on aussie so the latest edition goes on my own to stay and if you've missed any and all

and it became a success shortly after washington sided with the anti-government opposition by stepping down president mubarak responded to the egyptian people's hunger for change america's indorsement of change has paved the way for the muslim brotherhood to become egypt's strongest political force the international organization is considered to be one of the world's largest islamised movements and mohamed morsi has reportedly called for a constitution that is based on the koran and sharia law in the case of egypt we're taking a piece of the board that was one of our pieces this is why it was one of the strongest american assets in the middle east and for many years we've removed that piece and brought in some people who i do not think will be friendly to us. in this video film last month and egyptian cleric rally support for the brotherhood's presidential candidate. and we are yet to hear that.

that. said. the muslim brotherhood has many different factions many different elements they are a political organization but they also have ties to terrorism they're also directly intertwined with what's going on in syria according to the new york times cia officers secretly stationed in turkey are currently working with syria's muslim brotherhood to smuggle automatic rifles grenades and ammunition into the country i didn't work out enough to understand what it was all me you know what it would be. like you know all sort of. origin of the syrian opposition scene here waving al-qaeda flanks has received public support from the terrorist

network and created what some call a defacto alliance between america and its number one enemy. critics saying america's campaign for regime change comes with the consequence of empowering more radical and extreme leaders in the arab world let's not forget that assad and his government is a secular government just as gadhafi is government was a secular government if you get rid of that and you create the power vacuum or another force that is as organized and as strong will take its place continued political instability in cairo has raised questions about the so-called success attributed to the arab spring governments in egypt and libya were toppled with a u.s. stamp of approval but with new regimes leaning towards extreme islam many believe america could eventually find itself in a circumstance that hardly ever wanted her an important i.r.t. new york. now look at some other stories making headlines around the world in

russia relations. the united states and russia are the two great thermonuclear powers in the world russia remains the preeminent strategic partner in the eurasia mass the united states and russia have an enormous amount of strategic interests and concerns in common they are equally threatened on the lawn by islamist fundamentalism they both face major drug epidemics crime epidemics within their own countries the need for security and law and order cooperation between the united states and russia is absolutely preeminent in the world but that is not going to happen when relations between the two great super powers deteriorate over issues like this this is grandstanding and demagoguery in the senate of the word scared and what's particularly striking to me on this is that this isn't coming from the house of representatives it's coming from the senate and the senate is supposed to
