why not. why not what's really happening to the global economy with mike's guns are the no holds barred look at the global financial headlines june in two cars a report on r g. fresh rebel calls for a no fly zone over syria with the us weighing in with its support the reports of the opposition's alleged atrocities are making many activists turn their backs on. egypt as long as the president moves to assert his power over the military as he sacks both the defense minister and the chief of staff amid a growing military presence in the sinai region. and with the region in chaos slated israel is taking steps to keep its borders safe while washington upset to keep up support for revolutions even if they threaten its ally.

hello and welcome to our team karen tower achi broadcasting to you live from the heart of moscow while the syrian opposition a house or raided it calls for a no fly zone in the country although still reluctant to get directly involved the u.s. has previously voiced support for the move even if it means bypassing the u.n. washington and its allies have also pledged more backing for and fighters syrian rebels claim they have top down government warplane and captured the pilot the video posted on you tube showed a fighter jet in flames but state officials say it crashed due to technical problems meanwhile a legit rebel atrocities saw forcing more syria after this to renounce the opposition this amateur footage seen here apparently shows insurgents throwing the bodies of public sector workers. from a rooftop. now

a key flashpoint the conflict they had of one independent independent media outlet in syria told r.t. he's surprised the rebels are pleading for foreign action if they have as much popular support as they say they do. when anybody talks about a no fly zone they are talking about a regional war they know quite well that the syrian army will not allow any foreign power or foreign armies to interfere within the syrian land and any attempt to create a safe zone or a fly zone will be raised on the tool by war and any war between syria and turkey or syria and any need to a nation will turn into a large regional war and syria is a part of a huge alliance and for instance the iranians just last week made it clear that if any foreign power tries to interfere in syria they would not just watch their strongest ally for seven workers are being attacked i've seen rebels kill people in the streets of them with knives and then miss clinton comes and gives them money

they lost in the masters they are losing in any poll and as usual when ever the they find themselves in a pickle like this they call for foreign intervention and if they claim that they have popular support as they have been saying for seventeen months why do they need foreign intervention some of those backing the opposition are often aware of exactly what's going on in the anti assad camp archie's going to to can shed some light on the darker side of the rebellion. ever thought about adopting someone why not a syrian rebel as this headline says for just one dollar a day you too can help a syrian rebel oust president assad these days you have a good number of organizations which present themselves basically as charities where you can make a donation to the rebels in syria this is the website of one of the rebel groups there saying among other things they are seeking military equipment then there is another organization which collects donations based here in washington and

supported by the u.s. government they're called syrian support group we try to reach out to them and ask how they plan to distribute that money we never heard from them another website called adopt a revolution they also present themselves as a charity but it's organizer admitted that it's hard to see where the money goes as far as who the donors are he said they range from corporations to retired couples and students possibly those mentioned retired couples who've seen videos like this one with a rebel singing a backstreet boys song oh we'll see. you. tomorrow oh but what the peach for donors does not say is that not all rebel fighters are some romantic backstreet boys fans probably not these ones and this footage shows an apparent mass execution of assault supporters by the rebels in

cold blood. reports on the ground show that various extremist groups are doing the fighting including al qaida but it's not to say that all of them are all either or it's a full blown civil war where the degree of hatred is so high that people commit atrocities on all fronts i spoke with one of america's leading experts on counterterrorism and he told me the bloodshed will be even harder to stop as more outside forces get involved it isn't any more simply a question. versus our it's a question of saudi arabia versus iran and it's a question of turkey's increasing role in the middle east all these things make this more and more complicated and make it less and less likely there we're going to have a peaceful resolution instead we're going to have a winner take all solution one could say the danger is in simplifying things putting them black and white supporting people who kill can be called anything but charity in washington i'm going to check on. with more on the crisis and today's

interview when we hear from dr abdul aziz all here spent fourteen years as a political prisoner in syria he says that a peaceful struggle is the only way to build democratic future. ever call for it. to congress the military groups first of all the regime second round groups of the position that it's time it's high time indeed to come to a cease fire and to start negotiations about what to do and how to arrange some peaceful future for the country of course this includes the president and his from the must step aside at least for a wide. and the power must be passed or to have some acceptable personnel from the regime acceptable to the regime and exit the opposition.

you can see the full interview with the former syrian opposition leader in just over an hour right here on r t but still to come this hour the dream turned south. as the e.u. continues to struggle through recession many turks are now against their country joining me in spite of a long running push for membership we'll tell you why. and we look at how people in. in smaller asian country a suffer injury and even death to provide the rest of the world but the top straight breads. fly isolation and prejudice. aging.

motion to me soon which brightened. poundstone from phones to pressure. from stunts on t.v. don't comb. thank you for joining our to we turn our attention now to egypt where the president there has taken most his most decisive step yet to assert power over the influential military sacking two top generals they were the defense minister who

served as the country's interim leader after hosni mubarak was ousted as well as the chief of staff after the in elsewhere president morsy supporters took to the revolutionary talk where square in cairo to celebrate many see it as a sign of reform and progress morsi started to move more boldly against the army after an attack by militants in sinai that killed sixteen border guards the security presence there has been increased with the president vowing to restore order little sociologist saeed sunday says president morsi is using the violence in sinai in order to further his own policies and get the upper hand over the army. it was a good call but you know if you were going to do what he was going to do anyway he can have you monsters of that there is a nucleus that you shouldn't have parliamentary elections so it was very important that he goes just on me and that was one of the demand by the egyptian who should

of course there are some people who i was suspicious that the mozzie is not only helping the evolution but also had been useful in the movement it's lonestar the chief of islamizing the egyptian state and its institutions that there is your son army is the strongest army to be after the destruction of. the levy and also the syrian economy been fomenting this sort of feels that this is politicization of the egyptian economy in the end with the pla leaders getting stability in egypt he would be very cautious not to anger this label america and i see you as very good relationship with the americans and the americans would also mean how old and not making a push for any ideological stance at the un with all of those while this would as well is main all concerned about keeping its borders secure and that regional instability but billions going into defense but the military presence growing

inside and al qaida warming its way into the ranks of syrian rebels israel has ailing isolated and that hostile neighbors paul slayer explains. as a result of the arab revolutions israel now finds itself surrounded by rivals starting with egypt you have a situation in the northern sinai peninsula that last week saw the egyptian air force being employed for the first time the israelis are concerned that you have all kind of jihad is operating there they're also concerned that they're not going to see the same kind of willingness for cooperation from the new egyptian president mohamed morsi who comes from the muslim brotherhood that you saw in the past between his predecessor of course mubarak and tell of of as far as the situation in syria goes the ongoing violence has israelis concerned that should if bashar assad is toppled he could be replaced by al qaida the violence hasn't extended to get to

the golan heights but certainly israelis are concerned about the toppling of a same troll control from within damascus they're also concerned that you could have chemical weapons falling into the hands of extremist elements in addition to those who have a massive control in the gaza strip you have his villa operating from lebanon all of this coming on top of an already volatile but dormant situation these are the the israelis and the palestinians so certainly tel aviv is viewing with growing concern the volatile situation on its borders afraid that in a moment it could flare up of course here tel aviv. now to some other stories making headlines around the globe. at least in norway could have done more to reduce the number of people killed by brevik last year that's according to the official report which blames officers for taking too long to reach or eyelet. killing seventy seven people in recent times every addict is due to be delivered

next week the decision will determine whether he is sent to prison or in a psychiatric facility. occupy hong kong protesters. in order to leave their camp set up near the headquarters of h.s.b.c. bank the high court ruling which gives them two weeks to get out says the anti-capitalism protesters are misusing public space this came amid criticism that the tent town attracted vagrants the homeless inspired by the popular occupy wall street movement called calls protesters took to the streets last october and at their height had hundreds of activists living near the bank. almost a thousand people were evacuated by ferry from the canary islands overnight where firefighters were battling huge forest fires they threatened some of spain's most popular national parks destroying nearly a thousand hectares of land officials say good take three decades for the affected

areas to recover spain has been hit hard by forest fires after its driest winter in seventy years. london's olympic some respectable house come to an end with a star studded closing ceremony britain's most popular artists tonight it perform that out the event with hit songs from across the generations met with cheers from a packed stadium while the international fleets poured into the arena to form the u.k.'s flag the baton was handed over to rio the next summer olympic host with the next winter games due to be staged to the russian city of sochi watch our sports bulletin later today for more on the medals won and sat next. and in just a few minutes our business desk has more on the financial trappings of sporting glory in the event. russia turned out to be the most generous country in terms of its

prize money as the paid more than seven million dollars towards achieving china only stimulates gold pays nothing for silver and bronze medals the u.k. traditionally does not provide any financial stimulus but singapore offered a generous one billion dollars but nobody was up for grabs more on this in around this time. for over two decades turkey's been seeking a new membership a goal that has recently lost much of its appeal thanks to the ongoing euro crisis but actual gloom housecall some turks long term residents to head home in search of better jobs and opportunities tess are silly or has the story. what about five and a half million turks living in the european union their presence is certainly felt in societies in europe but as the e.u. continues to be deep in the red the lure of their original country's economic promise is getting harder to resist and the residents living on this street known as little anatolia say that more and more of their compatriots are thinking of

cutting their losses and heading back home like the owner of this snack bar belgian born outside has been finalizing his plans and is set on relocating his family back to turkey. europe is finished the crisis is getting worse every year it's going to continue first greece then spain italy right now belgium there is a lot of stress lots of taxes bills to pay while in turkey every year turkey is very powerful life is good you can live well why would you want in belgium it's no longer like this and the numbers say it all the e.u. managed a one point six percent growth in two thousand and eleven while turkey was at about seven point five percent gaining recognition as last year's fastest growing economy in europe while it is expecting a slowdown this year the grass still looks greener on their side and dependence on europe is not quite as it used to be the trade volume used to be very high with the

e.u. countries percentage wise it used to be around fifty percent now it has gone down to just over forty percent that means we're diversifying our trade more and more trade with african countries asian countries all around the world and this of course has spurred a lot of growth so we need people to be able to manage this we need qualified people personnel so we see that a lot of people are now coming you know second and third generation immigrants are coming back home for this purpose but there's another reason why a growing number of turks want out of the e.u. now with the crisis what's the result we reject. foreigners obviously now that there are fewer jobs less money what happens is priority is first given to the belgians and after the foreigners the turks the moroccans the russians my decision to go back to turkey is economic but also because when there is a crisis there is discrimination if you know of this community and yet as this migration trend rises turkey is still officially knocking on the e.u.

store its candidacy for membership hanging in the balance for the last twenty five years thanks to a long list of requirements to fulfill and political opposition from some e.u. countries people are afraid that that you will come up with more and more excuses even if we do overcome them people say that the other excuse is not that it matters any longer for some turks that. turkey doesn't need europe it's europe needs turkey in a few years you would see that i mean against turkey becoming part of the e.u. and right now turkey doesn't seem to be in much of a hurry either does or sylvia r.t. brussels. plenty more stories for you online on our website r.t. dot com including the wiki leaks web site is hit by a fresh wave of cyber attacks from its all mine enemy and. why they're so keen on silencing the whistleblower. was standing ovations in london condemnation at

any. one of the poorest nations on earth bangladesh is also one of the world's top clothes producers but in meeting foreign commercial demands factory workers suffer extreme poverty torricelli harsh working conditions aren't his prius radar investigates why no one is being held to account . i get it i want to so it was smoke that's the last thing i saw before i fainted i don't know what happened afterwards lovely day was only eleven when she almost died in a fire in the garment factory where she was working making only fifty cents a day to help her family survive while lovely escaped many in bangladesh having five hundred workers have died in garment factory fires in the past five years i suffer a lot now i still have to buy medicine it still hurts to want to move my hands hurt

my legs hurt too it's more difficult for me to walk around because of its extremely low wages bangladesh is one of the largest garment producers in the world attracting american brands from tommy hilfiger to j.c. penney to gap but the conditions at the factories are shocking low safety standards crumbling buildings and poor electrical wiring make working extremely dangerous many of the clothing companies look the other way when things go wrong claiming that they don't know what their far away factory owners are up to labor activists say that the companies should take an interest in people rather than just profits it to them it's very clear that these factories don't care about anything except on the wants dozens of workers may have. months of corruption between the factory owners and politicians extreme poverty and a slow justice system make it nearly impossible for western brands to be held

accountable garments account for eighty percent of bangladesh's x. for nearly ten billion dollars more of the products are shipped from here mainly to the united states in europe and every year despite the international demand workers still put in long hours and work for extremely low wages and those who are brave enough to speak out against the system are often times silent easily one percent of bangladesh's garment workers belong to unions. most like lovely are terrified of speaking out she never received a penny in compensation from any higher ups in her factory or the companies they exported their garments to and has now been abandoned by her family because of the high costs of the medication she needs to survive. i hope that something like this never happens to anyone and that no one has to go through such a trauma while lovely hopes that no one else suffers her fate her scars are an every day reminder that because every time in the garment factories her life will

never be the same preassure either r t dhaka bangladesh. all right dimitri joins us from the business desk and bad data from japan depressing the markets today is not right and that is true or turns out the economy in japan a slowdown faster than expected and therefore we had seen g.d.p. figures only at point three percent growth in the second quarter and which. means one point four percent but russia actually is not feeling the chill is secular what's going on here on the russian markets to my six and the gaining more than one percent this out this is very much based on the fact that oil prices have been going up a look at them in just a second first of all the stock movers on the m i six include oil major rosneft that was reports in the considering expanding to mean mia gas producing over tech is also up but now it's second quarter profit fell by around third and it's up to two point six percent in south carolina that's better than expected and profits

plunged. in the second quarter of the source so apparently better than expected as it's up two point eight percent let's move over to europe indeed the japanese data i was telling you about is depressing london mostly it's down zero point three percent but the dax is up led by natural resources extracted company on gas let's move over to currencies where the euro is strengthening its positions against the dollar that's several sessions of the greenback strengthening. you all the other way round basically but the russian ruble is feeling better today it's gaining around half a percent versus the dollar and a little bit versus the. to now that's helped also buy oil prices which have been indeed going up to a light sweet and brant this hour up more than one dollar now basically supply concerns are to blame supply of the north sea crude is at

a record low and sanctions affect the rainy and output so therefore we are seeing this positive trend. right well financial troubles across the globe are not hampering the moods of a limb pick champions they're taking back remind of the achievements they're taking back gold medals and governments in different countries offering different incentives for those who are stronger faster and. build the reports. the olympics is now over for the winners they have a permanent reminder of their victories a big shiny metal but what can the champions expect in financial terms when they return to their homelands well that depends on the individual and national limpid committees who award their own sports stars the us was a country with the most gold winners on the victorious at these cannot expect a bonus of twenty five thousand dollars when they get back to the states in total

that is one point eight million dollars that the u.s. government will be dishing out china hasn't revealed its official bonuses but it's gold winners will reportedly get a fifty one thousand dollar prize for u.k. athletes there's no extra cash to be won but there is a privilege of getting your head on a stamp so it depends what you consider to be more valuable russia has promised out these one hundred thirty five thousand dollars for gold but some athletes can expect even more the russian judo gold champion is i have to look forward to a one million dollars paycheck when he gets home and even countries that are near the bottom of the league table still offer a lowering amounts singapore was hoping a one million dollar bonus would bring a gold medal but it will have to wait four years for another chance although it hasn't won a medal since nineteen fifty six and the economic crisis isn't getting the incentives was stricken italy giving one hundred eighty two thousand dollars to

each of their winners so while it may be the taking part that counts winning certainly leaves you counting more cash. seven million dollars for eighty two medals in total i think that's a good incentive to try harder in four years time in rio certainly is a very big number of things for about a meter will be back with you in an hour. and i'll be bringing you the headlines after this short break stay with us.
