it was and. the new international envoy prepares to take these places is this mission to syria but have made it's nearly impossible willy i says who is really getting in his way . the man appointed to say dream in a song she talks exclusively to our she about reaction to the secret investigation against the whistleblower britain's threats and sweden's a real role. class occupy in proppant revealed tuxes police infiltrate the protest movement in houston charging accident with a few crimes that undercover officers at top.

international news live from moscow this is all she with me thanks for joining us fast in the flesh but give serious peace efforts a breath of life the new international envoy will head to the country in the next few days brahimi admits his mission has deep challenges with fighting on the ground reaching fresh levels of cruelty every day most recently activists links to the opposition from the times the rebels executed at least twenty pro-government soldiers last week in the flashpoint city of aleppo the man had been bound and blindfolded before going carol but i stress out there are reports police attempts in syria a further undermined by foreign powers taking sides. to the new joint u.n. and arab league special envoy to syria a lot more brahimi has been tasked with trying to broker a peace plan to when the eighteen month long conflict in syria has. call to stop

quote unquote nearly impossible this is a different set to the stand he took when he first off the job he was optimistic in the beginning thinking that he could help pave the way for peace between the warring sides in syria have also heard of the secretary general ban ki-moon has condemned the assad regime for all the atrocities they've committed against the syrian people but also the rebel groups and the condemning both sides saying that that the choosing of violence and force rather than dialogue we've also heard from the u.n. high commissioner for human rights and we can live with the process has been the staunchly critical of the assad regime and blaming condemning the regime for their treatment of their actions in this public but she's also come out and spoken against the rebel groups and any other groups or armed groups that have been committing atrocities against the syrian people she said that all sides should be held responsible for all their actions will be verb from the u.s. secretary of state hillary clinton as well as french president francois along both

with expressing their support for the syrian rebels france has already been sending aid to three rebel regions in syria as of recent weeks now with a lot of consensus from the international community on how to approach a situation as well as conflicting messages on whose side is responsible for the atrocities the support that is being given to one side versus another it's not hard to understand why left more brahimi has been calling his task now as nearly impossible. that same chief of the syria tribune believes it's not just western diplomatic support for the rebels that is hindering the international peace efforts . only if the countries backing their eyeballs and sending them what and money stop doing so we can have a peaceful resolution of the crisis. a little ibrahimi is capable of convincing these countries and i doubt it then years he has a chance if not then i don't see he has any from our experience every time there

was a blue an important meeting on syria within the un security council the arab league or anywhere else there there must be some. violence right before the meeting and there is always the same pattern there is a huge massacre where a lot of civilians lose their lives and the syrian army is accused of doing it it's very clear those who don't want a peaceful resolution are the ones who benefit and at the same time those who want to blame the syrian army and the syrian government for all the atrocities are the ones will benefit the only thing that makes the syrian army mission more difficult is that the rebels hide between city among civilians and it's very difficult for the syrian army need to eradicate them without civilians being injured or harmed in many ways and came across what's happening in syria and efforts to solve the crisis as r.t. dot com. has the nearly a month since julian our son was granted political asylum by ecuador but his no

closer to being a free man refused a safe passage from britain and still facing arrest there his biggest hope now lies with his illegal supreme about as our son and he's the man who indicted a former chilean dictator augusto pinochet and he has been exclusively telling r.t. about his new challenge safford has the details. he reveals a little bit about this ongoing battle for justice to julian assange and of course the wiki leaks founder remains holed up in the ecuadorian embassy here in london in knightsbridge and no real end in sight at the moment so this. standoff. remains very very firm that word julian assange is to be extradited that would put his human rights a very real risk at the same time the u.k. has said they're not going to grant you the. free passage and that if he sets foot outside the ecuadorian embassy he could be arrested for breaching his bail

conditions so just where does that leave well in the interview without. on a silence his lawyer said that they're going to continue to fight what he termed a terrible injustice. it's clear that grown to julian assange has political asylum because he was facing terrible injustice exercised his fundamental right we think that this wrong to needs to be defended this point we consider it prevalent and legal solution is possible if both the u.k. and ecuador go to the international court of justice ruling they're bound to obey now remember today in the sciences never being charged he's wanted for questioning in sweden over rape and sexual assault allegations are one of the biggest criticisms leveled out in a song is his bid for asylum in ecuador granting him asylum is very much just trying to evade justice now his lawyer tells us that is more than ready to go there he is more than ready to face the questioning as long as he's being given

a guarantee that once he was in sweden he'd face. the u.s. and they have never received those guarantees. julian assange has told swedish prosecutors that he's ready to cooperate and ready to be questioned to submit himself to the procedures but only if he's guaranteed that it would not lead to a more complicated case in which is rights to freedom of speech and information would be fine. now as we said julian assange and his legal team have always maintained that there's a very real fear here that well he'd be extradited to sweden that he could face a further extradition to the u.s. where some of the crimes that he could potentially be accused of espionage for his work with wiki leaks that carries the death penalty in the u.s. a very serious concern that his lawyer makes in the interview you know i don't think mr saunders a spy all he did was exercise his right to freedom of information he received and

shared it with much more surprised that there's been no investigation into the glaring crimes documented in those leaked reports featuring u.s. interference with issues that have absolutely no relation to either national security or the safety of american citizens. reading from a few both sides of course very very eager to find some form of resolution but just when and how this will come remains extremely uncertain indeed as louis told r.t. there is no time limit to resolve this situation like this one could be set to run and run but you can catch the full interview with julian assange his lawyer but also exclusively on r.t. . still ahead for you this hour a prize through hard for the palestinians they've hit the streets on most as living costs a rocket with x. but suspecting israel's hundred eight. the school bell tolls in the united states teatro cutbacks striking stop it see parents keep their kids at home for

some living room. france is facing its most severe spending cuts in decades it's sending president all loans approval ratings into a nosedive election as he was to and austerity so he's promising to rescue the economy then within two years but says it needs multibillion euro cuts tax hikes including a seventy five percent staying on top earners paris based journalist barry landau does that all and is on the right road for fraud. spears and trouble and he had to give the impression that he was going to be as you call him so normal president getting away from the super activism sarkozy sarkozy conceded here he wanted to be kind of a president reside over a government and its daily business but while he's talking about that we want the economy it's going down the tubes in unemployment is rising and we are getting more

and more happy at a time when the economy is shrinking. there talk us point eight percent growth or thirty thousand and thirteen. minimal to cut all that was that thirty billion euros from spending in france is an enormous bill but that's not just not thirty billion actually it's probably forty or fifty billion when you add in the costs that are made by start what was the government earlier this year so it's a huge slice out of the economy and i think instead of bringing growth difference it made people in the recession hopefully not but it's not a very great right now. and we have more on the economic hardships faced by europe and the wild and the kaiser report later today. egypt maybe i'm trying a new chapter but it's yesterday's trash which has kyra's residents fearing for

their health again and a state of flux and deposing president mubarak tons of garbage i will say in the capital streets and he has lost his house on a bike. a revolution or a leftover that's already starting to cause a bit of a stink it took a gyptian eighteen days of mass protests to oust hosni mubarak yet in the eighteen in soon month they've encountered a far more pungent problem with residents don't wait for garbage collection instead they threw it out onto the streets and we have to. cairo has never been a particularly clean city but the growing piles of garbage have become a major blight on its revolutionary glory president mohamed morsi promised to solve the problem in his first one hundred days in office but more than two months into his reign he's yet to show any haste in eliminating the waste. they said garbage

fans were unable to access narrow alleys. small view coalesce yet the regional government and finding commission violated the contract but there's a maci would go to that idea for many years car had its own environmentally friendly system of processing of waste for a small fee the garbage collectors most of them christians one door to door picking up organic leftovers and feeding them to speak that was until two thousand and nine when the pigs were called because of swine flu the mubarak government came off the some alternatives and the old collapsed alongside the regime. used to be these are going to kill me now would have to be all they get ignatz here i'll put it in containers but the problem is how to dispose of a place to process it. from libya to egypt trash overload has become a major visible change called by the arab spring and an unpleasant reminder that the previous governments were not as worthless as revolutionaries think you're damn

well this this is. actually. that. we. have the right to say perhaps we will have. her. fifteen tons of garbage dump on the streets of cairo every day more and more egyptians are now starting to see the difference between the politics of revolution and the policies of responsible government. the main assumption in all revolutions is that when the old leader is gone the quality of life can only get about and it is only later when the basic services start to crumble and when thing steeple used to take for granted i'm no longer there that their revolution and their regime would be post i finally getting a more realistic assessment of some of the weaker r.t.

of the arresting officers knew it was a felony and while we were out there on the road this was this was a rest they made under a tent they brought out of our great tension covered us before they actually arrested us but before they brought out the ten before i was under the tent i already knew i had a felony charge because the officer in the road said delane felony felony to everyone who was out on the road it's more strange that they were so ready and so knowledgeable of this law that the human judge was unaware when it came to the court definitely feeling like they are were pressing a free speech. and they're and they're really just wasting our time our our money and our time going through the court process and it's not it's not fair it's not justified and they're lying about it the whole way through as far as after the fact they're trying to cover their tracks. from what we from what we believe it's simply meant to be a long standing chilling effect in taxes and for occupy to be involved with direct

retail market they have chosen a good time indeed as russia has just answered the world trade organization and retailers are predicted to be the first to feel the benefits experts for see an influx of retailers selling the barges and all of the markets such as american warehouse club costco or prime arc which is popular in britain before entering the w t o russia was able to defend its local clothing industry by imposing a fifteen percent encourage you to earn some all their taxes at the border so even the cheapest western clothing will be relatively expensive here in russia like this t. shirt for example it cost five hundred eighty rubles which is about twelve british pounds but i can see there are regional price tag on the knees and it's only eight british pounds of such in produce will be gradually swept away which means their

regional price tag will remain almost unchanged here in russia this will allow low priced retailers to recreate the formula that lead to success abroad and enticing prospects as russia becomes europe's biggest retail market in the next couple of years but young people of business are to. analysts like a quote got to enter a national markets will start with asia which is the only one trading this morning that we see in there that both the bourses are dropping their investors are still cautious ahead of making any of those moves and that's because they're really aware in too few bags which will take place this week on wednesday we have germany's constitutional fourth which asserts of all the legality of the euro zone's russkie found then the following day in the us the side of the service that surrounds a policy decision and a lot of people are really looking forward to see whether it will be another round of quantitative easing or let's move on and so. a look at what happened on wall street overnight caution was that for me the word of the day there as well lou so

losses both for the dow and the nasdaq for similar reasons really no one wants to make any drastic movements ahead of those announcements if we move on and take a look at the currencies so what's happening with the euro dollar and ruble of course the euro is strengthening against the u.s. dollar when it comes to the ruble these are the close in figures from monday and we saw gains against both currencies there now of course the markets will open here in less than two hours from that but for now let's take a look at the picture from a monday and we saw against the r.t.s. added a third of a percent similarly with my sex important to mention that and then the gas producer . three percent and that's on the news of i gas formal rule is stalled by getting gas from independent gas companies here quick look at the crude prices right now they're dropping as well why it's with us shutting out around ninety six dollars per barrel there brian blogs out on one hundred fourteen and what we do you know is that there is that concern and we struck from we would cry and that's because

a lot of people war that europe's bailout will fail and also saudi arabia has been saying that the recent rise implies this has been unjust the five over of course see how those they plays out i'm definitely looking forward to more moves because if i knew on the was watching on monday we barely saw any changes in the markets now absolutely thank you very much for that marina and on the way julian assange lays out the tough task ahead of.
