on r.t. and word play is syrian officials told peace in moscow the media seems to be taking senior delegates comments out of context explain more just ahead. i suspect the dundas brothers sympathizers charged with plotting a copycat massacre in the czech republic days before the norwegian mass killers judy here. in washington slum for al qaeda style tactics the striking those arriving to help victims here in the wake of earlier american drone. welcome this is r.t. it's now ten pm choose dave here my name is kevin owen our top story this syria

looked ready to discuss assad's resignation today at least that's what the western media said after a syrian official came to moscow to discuss the crisis they've seized on some words from syria's deputy prime minister in the wake of president obama's military threat if the regime crosses a red line. can help explain what was really said. i'm standing in front of the russian foreign ministry worktops had floated between the syrian delegation and us your gay lover author but the real story of today's talks had only just begun and that was playing out in news headlines i want to play to you something that the syrian deputy foreign minister had said during the talks that was grossly missed interpreted and exaggerated in fact in some of the news headlines there are recommending resignation as a condition before conducting any dialogue which means that you can't attend to the matter at hand the dialogue can discuss any problem i think we are ready to talk about anything even question can be discussed but

a resignation before any mechanism in place for the syrian people to express their opinion is the democratic approach. last because here right there which i was talking about is the need to remove any kinds of precondition such as for example other requirement to present bashar al assad stepping down before some sort of a peaceful solution could be negotiated but that is not what was reflected in the news coverage of the talks on tuesday between the the syrian delegation and the russian government of course we do have to keep in mind that the press conference that the taking place was in arabic was later translated to russian and then into english but what this really serves to highlight is that the lack of accurate information and balance information coming out about the eighteen month long conflict i also want to bring into the discussion the example of aleppo as the battle continues to rage in serious second city several news outlets have reported for example what one the free syrian army spokespeople have said that they have

taken patrols of nearly two thirds of the level of the syrian government of president bashar al assad have claimed disputed those claims and what all of this really serves to highlight is again the lack of a balance information coming out about this conflict there really needs to be a middle ground in this escalating conflict. seeing and said is the sort of black and white pretrial trading of barbs a sort of lack of ability for the different sides to come together to really move this forward and a diplomatic way another thing that's really not helping with the potential of a peacefully negotiated solution to the crisis is some of the language that we've seen coming out of the united states as a plate on monday because president barack obama had really caused quite an international stir when he said that the movement or use of chemical or biological weapons by the government of president bashar al assad could trigger could cause the u.s. to reconsider its opposition to military intervention and this of course goes

completely against what sergey lavrov has been continuously calling for which is you know a lot or all option of by any outside power at this is an eighteen month long civil war this is a conflict that needs to be really resolved from within in order to avoid it spreading further or escalating any more the u.s. president. essentially with his in his words in his words this was a red line that the use of chemical or biological weapons that would trigger military intervention similar perhaps what we've seen in the libyan conflict with. reporting the now a car bomb in turkey close to the syrian border has killed at least nine people including four children the kurdistan workers party is suspected of the attack which comes amid intensified clashes between turkish troops and kurdish rebels who are fighting from a ton of this region so what this with marco meant is international relations professor university in turkey first roman hi there thanks for being with us the kurdish fight for independence in the areas flared up of course since neighboring

syria's violence and since turkey's being backing the syrian rebel and couldn't see this coming it begs the question doesn't it. you know one of the reasons why i had been so supporter of bashar assad was that he was very close the border. into turkey of course a very long. and what we're now seeing the course is very border between turkey and syria so to incorporation into syria rebels and also. some. people you know who know. this. all kind of blind eye to the border matters funneling into syria with all of the risk that they of course the right price. absolutely not turkey says it can defensively strike at the kurdish separatists is it therefore giving itself a green light to attack syria given the kurdish enclave that's building over the

border. there is not a possibility and certainly what the effect. of syria has been to create. kurdish areas and was something which the turkish government and all the mainstream parties were very worried about in iraq in two or three and then the opposition anywhere into the situation in syria the problem is. you can you. also work to intervene in syria how far would they be able to go how could they control. the stabilize and who are already very very promising we're already here to turkey has been accused of becoming an eye for the syrian rebels of late but the flip side of that how can it be sure that those same weapons aren't falling into kurdish and sunni to be used against it again well this

is that is quite true there's also another issue. mind is the risk really just. ongoing insurgency against. but also there are our group rudeness fundamentalist groups who don't necessarily recognize any border between syria and turkey who don't necessarily want to create a kurdish state actually wish to create a kind of caliphate they have no great chance of doing so they could call and have called the one who trouble in other countries it would cause trouble we saw them talking well call there are reduced to minorities ever get into the city but of course along the border if you can speak arabic or kurdish small. final one is a danger the kurdish enclave problem could worsen now with syria's conflict broadening into iran iraq lebanon maybe. well be certain the recodes are spread out across a large turkey syria and iraq and also into iran and. the other problem is

this religious crescent of spreading now perhaps into lebanon possibly in. the end plan into iraq itself with a great deal by rooms there on iraq often carried through by the same people who grew up in car bomb to damascus who were in the same bag the same groups the same argument the cool trends and so we have several conflicts that once all kinds three are normal greaves are contained by national borders and professor mark almond thanks for your thoughts on r.t. . police in the czech republic are investigating a man suspected of planning a masochist similar to the killings carried out by norwegian anders breivik last year weapon simply shooter forms were discovered in his apartment just days before brevig two to hear the verdict for killing seventy seven people in those two attacks election ski reports. and off weaponry and explosives to kill dozens of people that was the discovery of the czech police when they raided a twenty nine year old man's apartment in the city of

a strong man was reported by his neighbors to have some mental problems that's why the police decided to take action and later they arrested this man he was carrying a remote detonator for an explosive device on him when he was detained but it's also been revealed by the czech police that an explosive device made of an aircraft bomb was found in his apartment and they did it could have killed dozens of people it was believed to be a very powerful explosive device of several kilograms of explosives in it the police for now does not reveal and does not know what this man's intentions were but it already has all the reasons to believe that the man was a sympathizer of the killer from norway on this break who is due to have his verdict delivered this week sources within the interior ministry of the czech republic report that this man used a brave as he is on the internet and different forums and different social networks for now the police is trying to determine whether there have been any connection

between the detained man and himself now with no little about this man for a few pictures had been released by the czech media this man detained cuffs on him being put in a police car but for now the police are trying to keep all the information secret regarding this man so that he won't have any more followers and they're trying to determine whether he actually had any more followers or if he was planning to act alone this is still to come a sweeping say for a son just senior official says the country won't hand the sons to the u.s. to face death row but has been left to persuade them to go and face the sex assault claims we investigate talk about that in a few minutes also about them sometimes the moves to protect russian orphans adopt it. all the stories in here and it says what. washington's being internationally condemned for turning to al qaeda style tactics by using follow up strikes and it's

pakistan drone raids the attacks target those who arrive at the initial seeing to help victims multiple american missiles have killed over a dozen people in pakistan in the last few days alone in areas the u.s. claims are full of militants going a teacher can report. the u.s. prides itself on the rule of law but on a number of issues the line between what's legal and what's not has kind of blurred in the last decade or so is wiretapping legal no but in the name of national security yes there are attempts right now in congress to legalize big brother on the web by making it legal for providers to funnel all private correspondence to national security agencies the law in the u.s. protects free speech but never before has there been such a hunt for whistleblowers that's in america but as far as u.s. actions abroad the issue of what's legal and what's not even murkier washington has expanded its target assassinations program in different countries essentially putting itself above the law now i'm joined by john feffer author and co-director

of the institute for policy studies he has an interesting theory of u.s. foreign policy he compares it to dexter the t.v. show dexter is a fictional character who is a good citizen by day and a serial killer by night but he only kills bad guys for what's so wrong about being dexter i mean everyone loves dexter it's a very popular t.v. show here in the united states and all across the world but this is difficult moral questions because of course dexter is judge jury and executioner and sometimes he makes mistakes and the united states too is in a similar position united states often says it only kills the bad guys with some of the. other figures that have been attacked by drones over the last few years but the united states also makes mistakes there have been any number of civilian casualties associated with these drone strikes so in some sense they're in a similar moral quandary the u.s.

government as you said you know there's administration has expanded its drone program dramatically and the strikes in pakistan yemen and other places they end up killing many civilians we're talking about extra judicial killings. and here's the question of pops out. you know when when someone does something outside the law they're usually afraid of getting caught but in the case of the u.s. who is the police to catch them there is no police is there well there isn't any police of course there are international laws and there have been a number of reports on the implications of international law on the drone attacks and the un for instance report tour has condemned drone attacks as being illegal but i think the chief concern here for the united states in terms of getting caught is being caught by blowback in other words by the consequences of these drone attacks and those i think are significant because of course we've seen people here in the united states who have cited these drone attacks as the reasons for their

terrorist activities for instance so i think it's blowback which really represents the casualty or shall we say the consequences that are most direct the drone program one senior pakistani air force officer told us that the tactics america's using in its fight with terrorism may well but. i'm afraid the information which is being given out is very sketchy because especially since two thousand and nine the united states seems to have changed the rules. and the able bodied. who can become sort of that militant will be considered militant in respect of the fact whether. or not but the fact is that the relatives of the victims are approached by the terrorists and. for their lives have been targeted and killed it is high time that you can take a revenge and in fact the number of terrorists who are being groomed and recruited

in this way is rising so it is not just a double edged sword it is counterproductive and it is increasing terrorism rather than reducing it. so he says it won't hand during the surge to a third country if there was a risk that he'd face the death penalty the justice ministry official made those comments to a german newspaper london wants to sweden to face sex crime accusations but the wiki leaks head of it fears he'll end up on trial in the u.s. over the release of american diplomatic cables has been hiding for two months no in the london embassy of ecuador which has granted him asylum britain says it will not let him safely leave its soil and even threaten to break into the embassy to arrest discerns or move ecuador's president want to be diplomatic suicide i spoke to laws k. from the u.k. pirate party he says sweden's assurances don't offer much hope to us. clearly he can stay in the in the embassy indefinitely but it's difficult to see how we all get out now to danes announcements from sweden and seem to tend to try and get out

of this stalemate but eventually. amount to staging the only. common carrot is countries don't like sometimes when there's a question of the death penalty so i don't think that these insurance given today will be likely to actually satisfy the sound check out what needs to happen is that there is actually much stronger assurance since coming from sweden now it's correct technically that insurance is actually don't know how much kind of also really binding nature but it is a common practice doing to mattick really essentially it's time to try and. brow. world news review wanted on our web site kong couple stories that we think of interest video of covertly spying on muslim neighborhoods by

a secret new york police unit has been branded useless for not leading to a single investigation is interesting story got online also reported this week that apple may be the world's most valuable company at the moment but it's not incidentally the biggest details of history's tektites it's now a shadow of its former self incidentally and our website r.t. talk. egypt demanding that libyan authorities ensure the security has diplomatic mission there after an egyptian diplomat car was blown up in the city of benghazi and a day after a twenty bomb attack left two people dead in the libyan capital now the authorities blame loyalists of the deposed leader moammar gadhafi thirty two have been arrested lived here remains unstable since the nato backed popular uprising resulted in the deaths and stinging death last year yet a trio of new york invested reviews paper news leaves the latest indicates.

it's not definitely know who could be behind these kind of actions i think what might be disturbing is that normally when these kind of activities start they don't just. so sadly there could be such more actions similar explosions in the days and months to come and judging by the situation on the ground it's not clear that things are any better in libya today than before the nato intervention i think there's a rush to try to create a semblance of normalcy you really cannot have stability without addressing the issues of the weapons that are widely available at the end of the day the people that really exercise power in libya today are the arm militias there was some talk in the international criminal court that nato would have to be brought to account. what amounted to war crimes who is going to address those issues so rather than focusing on the proposed trial of this time of coffee that's really address the

more serious issues the destruction on libya that was caused by the nato who is going to compensate libyans for the lives that were lost and the property that were destroyed that to me seems to be a much more serious issue and then the proposed trial of one of qaddafi surviving sons some top will do stories in brief tonight a gun battle in lebanon's northern city of tripoli has left at least two dead and several others wounded countries into the number of clashes between supporters and poses of the regime in syria the military moved in to quell the fighting on both sides but it later we started again. an insurgent attack on a u.s. air base in afghanistan's damaged the plane of america's top military officer general martin dempsey wasn't there the aircraft at the time but two maintenance crew there was slightly injured dempsey was in kabul to discuss the recent wave of so-called friendly fire attacks by afghan soldiers against international forces the head of the general's planes a bear sing for american forces after the taliban claim to shot down one of the helicopters last week. remaining as presidents narrowly escaped impeachment but

only because turnout at the referendum on its future was below fifty percent travis says it has been at loggerheads with the center left government which accuses him of interfering in the law and parliamentary business but he's also blamed the deeply divisive anti a stereotype measures which should be backed by states such as germany. every year thousands of russian orphans are adopted by american families with the hope of giving them a fresh start in life doesn't always work with tragic stories of abandonment and beatings but as eager piskun off reports next for tea there is still one place those vulnerable children can call home. he's ten years old but has already been through more than most people would face in a lifetime most of. this boy suffer deep psychological trauma as he often becomes secluded locks himself out from the rest of the world and when it comes to america he still never talks about it in his relatively short life already been abandoned

twice first by his biological russian mother and then by his american forster mother she changed her mind just six months after the adoption dumping him all alone on a flight back to moscow with nothing more than a note and a change of underwear for the last six months to john has been living in a children's s. always village just outside moscow an international project that brings a new format to the traditional concept of children's homes and foster families here a children move in groups in separate houses each group then has its own foster mother heading up what are john himself now calls a real family. there. the main goal for now is to help our to recover to get over his psychological problems and catch up education wise there's a large gap between what he knows and what he's supposed to know at this age dozens of other children live in this village and although it's on declined to speak on

camera he's once again playing and talking with the others abandoned so wise it's hard to imagine what sort of stress i have to go through fortunately in a lot of time but he is recovering surrounded by other children unfortunately thomas white has not been an isolated case. around sixty thousand russian children have been adopted by american families over the past two decades but twenty children have died through neglect and cases of mistreatment have become all too common. phrase deal with you one family adopted six girls from russia and use them to film porn they've now been convicted another us family specifically adopted children with disabilities just to mock them they tied them up threw them into a swimming pool put hoses in their mouths and turned on the water and these are just the cases we know of moscow is calling for the creation of a separate body within the u.s. government that will monitor the lives of children adopted from russia to prevent

such stories of neglect ever happening again and as for our terms former foster mother she was fined sixty thousand dollars by a us court and ordered to pay a quarter of her salary every single month until he's eighteen to a boy she rejected despite once having legally agreed to love and protect you god is going to of moscow. talk about this all night tonight as we katie in the economic crisis people are turning to products that they can trust katie said our business desk newsroom tell us about those products absolutely well they're tasty for us that's like heaven because we're looking at third and other war materials as well because they're saying record prices because affairs that paper money can't be trusted as you say because of the end certainty at my bed on the tulsa sun that scares she's got the details for us have a listen. it's five years ago the saugus that the world will come up to the chalk we now hold the global financial crisis successful investing during these years

proved challenging it turns out commodities namely corn gold and brant crude offered the biggest return strong double digits here compared to modest gains for the footsie and the s. and p. and losses for japan's nikkei and it may not be too late to join in the commodities boom take a look at the core it's prices hit a record high on friday as the u.s. government slashed its forecast for the drought damaged crop do worst drought in more than a half a century i should add overnighted became the hottest commodity on the list but it still has a lot of top it's dramatic rises also the result of even all increasingly becoming part of the ghastly mix the second harvest is gold in july it saw the largest quarterly price drop since two thousand and eight or the bad news about the state of the global economy suggests central banks will increase stimuli read crank up

the printing press and turn away on the u.s. dollar that will boost the gold as an alternative investment it's now priced well below its inflation adjusted high over around two thousand four hundred dollars an ounce of reached in one nine hundred eighty last but not least is crude arguably it's the most popular commodity and that's understandable since it's part of nearly every faucet over every day lives from fuel to fertilizers and cosmetics with branch trading around one hundred fifteen dollars a barrel it still has a lot of upside before it tops its record high of one hundred forty seven and a quarter dollars it reached in two thousand and eight. like i said the way to go for that prize but let's talk about food some more because if you happen to be possible to a bit of chicken then i've got some good news for you because major chicken special is now the end to the raw. the mall kids opening up twenty stores in two years is

the chain known for their controversial out some say with chicken have been made one of the world's top thirty brownies let's get over to the u.s. markets and see what's happening on wall street now it's been a very sharply day of trading day because right now we're looking at losses of around a quarter of a step for both the bulls is just a we've got a full length leading at the declines in the technology sector and that's a die off the apple became the as valuable company in history it's appalling saying microsoft and the european markets they are close now but they did manage to finish on the upside and that is the head of the crucial meetings taking place this week with the euro as a leaders both those planes boeing costs fell out to death toll as well as helping relieve the pressure of the euro continues to rise now by one percent against the dollar of growing up to visit the european central bank to take steps to bring down boring calls for indebted eurozone nations such as spain and aisleyne now the

russian car as you finished against both the u.s. dollar the european cars as you can see just. really germinates tuesday evening for my friend experience in the biggest gains in a fortnight and that's really helped along by the price of oil let's get the eggs to market as they already closed up to today but will be able to see that they finished with incredibly strong days today and that was a relief because yesterday we were looking at the cool lines and as i say oil is rising as that is helping along the investors here mostly helping them do that but there is a rush we should oppose this week though the latest offering from the ground slam champions. a new line of premium treats including sticky tennis balls and poles of the profits will go to charity but the tennis star she won't be going hungry. she's the world's highest paid female athlete in the us here eight years in a valley. it's not para lips every time i say it does look like sweet very nice

though folks like are you see more money on the way as we discuss whether any of the eurozone countries benefit from the single currency is a big question we've got the big guns is hopefully coming up couple of minutes time just over two.
