i know what's really happening to the global economy with. global financial headlines. thanks for joining us here on. the syrian civil conflict the u.s. is making suggestions countries future should be built without. trying to. reject and without explanation. leading russia's opposition movement with embezzlement once again causing an.

interview with the russian envoy for human rights. he says the norms of international law around the world leave much to be desired. thank us. thank you. thank our consent to go freshen foreign ministries and woodsmen from human rights democracy and the rule of law it's great to have you with us again sir hello and good emotion is to be back next the arab spring has upset the balance of power in north africa and the middle east who witnessed islamist movements come to power across the region some are moderate but also the rise of radical islamism is evident what threats do these radicals represent well first of all. called arab spring.

a process which probably reflects certain objective phenomena in the in the region that was the movement which pretty much from within. are all of us lee there was certain external dissipation i would say or some certain external prodding in those cases where the changes came from within stability in those cases in those countries is basically kept and we face fewer immediate dangers as far as extremism is concerned as far as the security there all of those countries and all of the joining regions is concerned. it is definitely different when. certain transformations certain political changes being pushed from the outside then it's a different picture and. we keep reiterating that

it's not only russia's view that you cannot bring about democracy from the outside democracy to become the result of the certain internal processes if we take for instance this issue which is which falls within my purview of my men the situation the field of human rights and democratic development and rule of law. yes you are absolutely right the picture is not black and white and. we cannot say that. that human rights are being insured. absolutely better. in the. certain countries of the region where the arab spring has occurred. it's still a long way it's still a long way let's take for instance i mean pretty much all of them but let's take

for instance libya let's take for a little when you talk about better like our human rights ensured at all when we were better off before the need to let invasion or now i don't know what will the the new government in libya do you know the elections. when i see the new government. government and you are thought to use they expressed their willingness to build the democratic libya to build libya which will live here to the basic human rights and democratic freedoms which is positive it's a long way and the picture once again is pretty much mixed because what we see now is unfortunately the violations of human rights to be to continue. in the way it is a result of the military conflict which raised in the country but still future is ahead of this country and we hope that this future will be democratic we hope that

human rights. in their you know in their entirety will be ensured for both the libyans and for the citizens of other countries what's going on with the team and to russian language serving their sentence in libya well i'm not a lawyer. i'm not sure whether this term serving their sentence is absolutely right because they have been sentenced. one of them to life time in prison another one to ten years in prison and we have expressed. our assessment of the of the sentences we think there are too harsh that they absolutely do not deserve such punishment and we think that the legal and the legal processes have been faulted and have been flawed and.

oh. the situation is that. the the lawyers and the russian embassy as with the russians has been very much supporting those efforts have appealed we hope that these sentences will be reviewed seriously reviewed we. strongly encourage the libyan authorities to. provide for all the basic rights. of our citizens in accordance with international standards. remains to bring our citizens back home talking about bringing citizens back to russia picture but as one example of how what he has defendants say is a criminal case invented by the united states just to remind our viewers a picture of what is a russian business and who was arrested or kidnapped by the u.s.

drug enforcement administration and sentenced to twenty five years in prison to serve in the united states and russia's foreign ministry has said many times that it would try to restore justice what's going to happen there where you think well the same goal we we are undertaking all necessary efforts to bring i was it isn't back home where yes indeed we think that the sentence is unjust we think that the entire legal process. process which led to their sentence was absolutely political from beginning to em. political or politicized maybe you both the goal remains the same. we keep raising the issue of mr wood or some other similar cases of mr yushchenko also russians of them who also has been has been. a else

a pilot who had been extradited. to the united states and. i would. he also has been sent as i think to twenty years when you say it was a political case what exactly do you mean like america versus rochelle what you know the reason lot of hollywood is in the in the story of mr bush i mean. i don't mean only that famous movie a lot of the war you know which we fortunately also became a factor in the which must not happen factor in the last year but but you know he was sentenced for as it was for intentions you know for inventions to can mean something illegal in the use of in the eyes of the american system of justice what we've seen is of course lack of. objective and impartial. legalistic approach one more issue we keep

pushing the american authorities. to ensure. you mean conditions for our citizens in prison it is not good. russian citizens in american prisons being deprived of medical assistance for us and unfortunately we had to raise this issue more than once with the americans both mr bush and mr you're a shrink. and you know all the buddhists still in the one of the federal prisons and he is in a special cell for. the most dangerous criminals he definitely does not in his present condition. in particular he does not represent any. clear and present danger to the security of the united states president obama promised to close down guantanamo and then one russian citizen is

also serving his sentence in that prison but he hasn't been able to do that so far do you think it will be easier for him to accomplish if he's re-elected well there is still some time before the election. i don't want to speculate about the upcoming american elections who will win and what will happen you know it's definitely the will of the american people but. this particular. problem is a good big you know in the you want reds domain because their particular prism is a very special institution. nor norms of international law. be it international or international humanitarian law or you know they are not respected there is like a legal way cuba you know which once again is not only are you used to be whether it will be tickled by the income of the ministration and some people say

the chances are slim. but their best to live their lives if there is a will is they say there is a way. or it will be tackled by the next administration and whatever the administration will be you know but it is to be tackled it is to be there because these. are. a number evolved human rights problem just very briefly i want to get back to where we started talking about the arab revolutions syria is in the news a lot lately and if we observe. what happened and how things happened in countries like egypt tunisia libya all those arab countries that underwent revolutions what lessons are there to be learned for the syrian scenario you know i will stick to the humanitarian field the main lesson. is the following the best way to prevent new casualties among the civilian

population among the civilians the best way to ensure in the long term manner. respect for human rights respect for human dignity. definitely to stop till it is as soon as possible to strike and begin full fledge it mention or political dialogue compassing all constructive political forces began three definitely has to happen without external interference civilians are the first to suffer we saw it in libya unfortunately where quite a number of civilians perished including under the nato strikes including underlaid they did and it is still to be investigated by the way. which has not happened. including by the way the national criminal court. russia's foreign minister for human rights democracy and the rule of law thank you very much person

thank you for joining me for the latest sports and these other top stories. that attack russia claimed their second gold at the olympics and i guarantee it's in judo while the men's basketball team even past china in the group we. want to into iraq even off scored his second goal in as many games of that because i don't want to be at home with my unbeaten go in the russian primarily. out of high hoops the courts come to moscow streets with a twenty thousand dollar prize up for grabs at the spectacular can you all straight basketball toward it. so let's start with the olympics where russia have taken another gold in the judo with bats plus all the rest of the news from london here's a hundred pharma. so i want to start for russia no we've only had three days of competition so far but russia have been amongst the medals for the third day

running and their judo team have got a second goal that came from montreal is the live in the seventy three kilogram category he beat japan's world champion ricky in a car in the final a man he hadn't beaten in six previous attempts and he did it with the yukon and that effectively means he threw his opponent on the side that happened in the final minutes of this five minute contest is a true olympic champion who came into this contest ranked number four but he blew away a host of big names including south korea's ki-chan wang in the semifinal much to the delight of russia's judo loving president vladimir putin but of course no one is more delighted than is di if himself although. i had a solid game plan for the clash my coach told me all i had to do it was crucial to neutralize my opponent's stronger hand and prevent him from doing any effective moves. also ahead too boy annabel's is worked out with so

joy for him but there was pain in the pool for russia and this is who came fourth in one hundred metres backstroke final she was second at the turn but lost out on the bronze medal to japan's i attend a coward american missy franklin got the gold with the strain is claiming the silver there is also more heartbreak for you're female her hopes went without trace in one hundred meters breaststroke coming in seventh after coming forth in beijing with the way his teenage insatiate routinely taking the gold and daniel is a toff could not add to the bronze he got in sunday's relay finishing down the field in the two hundred metres freestyle that was won by france's agnel gani favorite ryan lochte was fourth well there was better news for russia's handball and basketball teams the women in those events both keeping the one hundred percent record at these games with two wins from two incidentally the russian prime minister dmitri medvedev kissing every member of the house after their victory over

great britain russia's men know in the artistic you now six didn't do you say well they didn't pick up a medal in the team final however the women do have a chance to shine in that event on tuesday with more is richard. was. on monday wasn't the best of afternoons for russia's male gymnasts but failed to get on the podium in the team event however on choose the attention turns to russia's women's gymnastics team as well try and fight it out for a medal weber's a lot of expectations on them and rightly so they managed to qualify in second place for the team final which will take place on the tuesday after a couple of names which are well worth looking out for including victoria. she managed to finish in first place overall for him because the cation period also. watches russia's team leader and best gymnasts for countries produce. perhaps in years bo it has been difficult for the afa no she's just come back from

a very serious injury nevertheless former russian jim. she's backing of the russian team to do well on tuesday and try and bring home a medal. you know leo is going through some hard times right now she was and she actually still is a leader but the young generation is catching up with her but she has to have bitches to give up she's a fighter and i'm sure she'll be fine. for the arms of a swimming pool where russia just one bronze to show for verified so far but they'll be looking to a certain improved dance on tuesday and first of all of it but want to. be going in women's two hundred metres freestyle will be a very difficult task for her to try and get on the podium but perhaps much more is going to be explained to the russia's fall by two hundred freestyle relay team well back in beijing in two thousand and eight they managed to claim a silver just a few days ago the men's four by one hundred metres freestyle relay team they managed to claim a bronze certainly a lot of expectation on them but there you could try and bring home

a would be russia's second medal in the pool so far also over a few chances in the archery well if you remember just a few days ago russia women's team they were on the brink of a medal in the team competition but just missed out on the points and getting a final in just two points on getting a bronze medal so will be seen if they can manage to get a medal in the individual events and voters had a bit more luck commerce side couple of other events types to tell you about where russia might have outside chances once in the men's for oil fencing and the men's judo where russia have done very well so far winning two gold medals and also just . completing the volleyball they got off to a great start with the first man to be taking on brazil her favorites really to win gold out of the two thousand and twelve london olympics so this will be a great test for the russian side who are ranked second in the. world kind of a you can get a win over the perennial foes the brazilians that's going to bode well for the rest

of the tournament and their hopes of trying to claim the men's volleyball gold medal. was. so this is fast becoming one of the best ever start to an olympics for russia and president putin is jews who arrive in london in a couple of days' time so let's hope the russian team can keep that medals tally ticking over until then andrew farmer r.t. london. and in the meantime the russian men's basketball team have claimed their second victory in group babe a seventy three to fifty four point win over china and right here in lanka who last week signed a two year twenty million dollars deal with the minnesota timberwolves he scored sixteen points and grabbing nine rebounds david plotz team now have a day off before they play their third great match against brazil. now moving on to football with that have been crossed no doubt want to nail in

grozny to remain unbeaten and go fifth in the russian premier league it took a stunning slab churches saabs men eighteen minutes to score what could prove to be the winner even off the heading home the second goal in as many games found one that remained as the chechen side hung on to victory to go fifth in the table on four points present off sevens on three after two sets of matches in the new football season. while twelve strayer midfielder tim cahill has become the latest international star to join the fast rising major scale legal major league soccer should stay in the usa the thirty two year old was unveiled as the newest signing of the new york red bulls the move brings to end his eight year spell at everton and cahill says he hopes way to play alongside the certainty harry only. this is a big move for me you know i know a lot of people might. think otherwise but you know i'm thirty two years old i respect them all there are some coming here to good. and i'm ready for

a new challenge you know so that's very special not only me but also for my family but. i'm going to be playing with one of the biggest superstars on the planet my stereo and really. let's return to bosco ball and sixteen international teams gathered here in moscow over the weekend for the capital sixth annual street basketball tournament with a twenty thousand dollars top prize up for grabs as nikolai charles reports. the morse code opened one of the most anticipated events of the street basketball season popularity for the sport is growing each year with many hopeful teams simply failing to make the cut these time around only the cream of the street will select able to gather to battle for glory and the small factor of the twenty thousand dollars first prize and while the stars of the game won't be seen on going london the olympics the twenty sixteen games in rio de janeiro much will be where the borders make their debut so much more and more people are getting interested in

this style of basketball if he was actually supposed to introduce three on three in london as a potential olympic sport therefore very soon in twenty twenty or even twenty sixteen he will feature in the olympics. holder slovenia could match their performance of last year departing at the quarter final stage while force russia also flattered to deceive head into the locker room and it was mr rainy and team headdress who stole the limelight of a common past the embarrassed for my mania and in may why it's a final tournament m.v.p. poorly especially on this stage in his team mates exceptional knowledge of each other is the key to this success well we're a very long done goes well we usually play together in the sky during the summer back in billows we played together like three times a week so we know each other for a long time though and it's not a first time we were playing together but the show didn't and did the who's who of the slam dunk world thing gather to find time for the five thousand dollars

a person all for and of course the respect of a piece acrobatic skills edging an extra wow factor to be upgrades with the scope and style of play aggressively grown in stature the future looks bright for the sport and the players lucky enough to be part of a nicolo chose our team or score. and finally a group of athletes in germany have produced. their own version of london twenty twelve as the mud lympics brought together competitors who don't mind getting down and dirty the lighting of the ceremonial torch in hamburg was only slightly less spectacular than friday's opening ceremony in london and here the ball was first on the show jewel with team members probably having trouble distinguishing the opposition from one of their own while a slight ease are usually reserved for the winter games but a relay race through the mud was among the favorites for the spectators here and a battle between local footballing powerhouses sort of see the muscle beat me on
