afternoon to you watching our live from moscow with me to what's a first in the fresh a bid to give syria's peace efforts a breath of life the new international envoy will head to the country in the next few days luck to break here me admits his mission but challenges with finding on the ground reaching fresh levels of cruelty every day most recently activists and into the opposition have confirmed the rebels executed at least twenty pro-government soldiers last week the flashpoint city of aleppo the man had been bound and blindfolded will be killed but it's still your reports police attempts in syria are further undermined by foreign policy taking sides. the new joint u.n. and arab league special envoy to syria a lot more brahimi who's been tasked with trying to broker a peace plan to wendy in two month long conflict in syria has just called his task order quote nearly impossible now this is a difference or to stand before you for

a stop and shop he was optimistic in the beginning a big big that he could help pave the way for peace between the warring sides in syria also heard from secretary. general but he has 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 we've also heard. from human rights and the like who the process has been a 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 spoke against the rebel groups and any groups armed groups that have been committing atrocities against the syrian people she said that all sides should be held responsible for all their actions believe her from the u.s. secretary of state hillary clinton as well as french president both with expressing

their support for the syrian rebels france has already been sending aid to three revelry regions in syria as of recent weeks now with a lot of consensus from the international community on how to approach the 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 i left more brahimi has been calling his task now as nearly impossible. they added to the syria believes it's not just western diplomatic support for the rebels that is hindering the international peace efforts. only if the countries backing their balls and sending them what ins and money stop doing so we can have a peaceful resolution of the crisis if. the liberal himi 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 now when you say that you are supporting a liberal his mission to reach

a peaceful resolution you should not be supporting sending weapons to militia and specially that this militia is well known for being islamic radical militia and for committing atrocities against civilians what's happening in syria is quite similar to what has what happened before in afghanistan in the eighty's and yet the french president is determined to send militia weapons and yet he claims that he supports a peaceful resolution he's lying. keep across what's happening in syria and the efforts to solve the crisis at r.t. dot com. there's been nearly a month says julian assange was granted political asylum by ecuador but he's no closer to being a free man with you safe passage from britain and still facing arrest as big as hope now lies with his legal supreme are well tartar on he is the man of the indicted of former chilean dictator augusto pinochet and has been exclusively telling r.t. about his new challenge there for it has the details. he reveals

a little bit about this ongoing battle for justice achieved in a silence 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 for this. standoff. remains very very firm that word cheerleader sounds to be extradited that would put his human rights a very real risk the same time the u.k. has said they're not going to grant. free passage and that if he. outside the ecuadorian embassy he could be arrested for breaching his bail conditions so just where does that leave well in the interview with r.t. both those are guards on a song his lawyer said that they're going to continue to fight what he termed a terrible injustice. the u.s. is conducting a criminal investigation into we kill that's according to a few but nevertheless thierry reliable reports in this respect absolutely clear to

us that such investigation and prosecution are we to enlist was in essence just doing his job violates freedom of speech in the u.s. now remember julian assange says never being charged he's wanted for questioning in sweden over rape and sexual assault allegations are one of the biggest criticisms leveled kid innocent is his bid for asylum in ecuador granting him asylum is very much just trying to evade justice now his lawyer tells us that he's more than ready to go they have all the ready to face the questioning as long as he's being given a guarantee that what he fears the most wouldn't happen and that would be that once he was in sweden that he'd face actually descent to the u.s. and they have never received those guarantees you know on a warning to the information we have about this case this case has no grounds when he came to the u.k. and the courts would not hear his extradition case julian assange told swedish prosecutors that. he was ready to cooperate he would offer to come back for

questioning and he's still ready to do that and only now he's asking the prosecutor to come to the u.k. and question him this is not a rebellious behavior. as he said julian assange is on his legal team have always maintained that there's a very real fear here that well he'd be extradited to sweden so that he could face a further extradition to the u.s. where some of the quine's that he could potentially be accused of espionage or as worked with wiki leaks that carries the death penalty in the us a very serious concern that his lawyer makes in the interview i don't think mr assange she's a spy although he did was exercise his right to freedom of information he received and i'm much more surprised that there has been no investigation into the glaring crimes documented in those leaked reports featuring interference with issues that

have absolutely no relation to their national security or the safety of the american citizens of those size of course very very eager to find some form of resolution but just when and how this will come with a sixteen year old certainties as louis told r.t. there is no time limit to resolve this situation so it looks like this one could be set to run and run but you can catch the full interview with julian assange is a lawyer but also exclusively on r.t. . crisil ahead this hour a prize or two high for the palestinians hit the streets are monsters living costs a rocket with x. pairs or suspecting israel's hand played lots of. nothing will change until there is a whole sure. even smart being educated is cool but until that happens a teacher come back and striking starvin you with schools are seeing parents keep their kids at home from living room. egypt may be

entering a new chapter but it's yesterday's trash which has kyra's residents fearing for their health after a year in a state of flux arsons deposing president mubarak tons of garbage are rotting in the capital streets his arches oxana boyo. a revolution or a leftover that's already starting to cause a bit of a stink it took a gyptian one thousand days of mass protests to oust hosni mubarak yet in the eighteen in syrian 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 collect it. cairo has never been a particularly clean city but the growing piles of garbage have become a major blood 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 we prepared small vehicles yet the regional government and cleaning commission violated the contracts as a mature though that idea for many years kyra had its own environmental a friendless system of processing waste for small fee garbage collectors most of them christians one door to door picking up organic left hours and fitting them to pigs that was until two thousand and nine when the pigs were called because of swine flu the mubarak government came up with some alternatives but they all collapsed alongside the regime. because of this pigs used to be these are going to cremains now we have to pick up all their getting material put it in containers but the problem is how to dispose of it we have no place to process it. from libya to egypt trash overload has become

a major visible change brought by the arab spring and an unpleasant reminder that the previous governments were not as worthless as revolutionaries painted them well this this is all. very nice. well. who controls they will never. be tasked. with fifteen tons of garbage dumped 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 all leader is gone the quality of life can only get better and it's only later when the basic services start to crumble and when things people used to take for granted are no longer there that the revolution and the regime with

you're watching our good to have you with us france is facing its most severe spending cuts in decades sending president along approval ratings into a nosedive electors as he was to end all star team is promising to rescue the economy within two years but says it needs multibillion euro cuts and tax hikes including a seventy five percent to sting on top aaron as his base journalism very landa dollars that the all along is on ride road for france. he is in trouble and he i 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 was our closer he proceeded you know because he wanted to be kind of a president be presided over a government taking a state of the business but while he's been talking about that meeting at the economy keeps going down the tubes in unemployment is rising and people 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 with a. minimal. cut all of a sudden thirty billion euros from spending in france is an enormous floor but that's just not thirty billion actually it's probably forty or fifty billion when you add in the crafts that are made by start close the government earlier this year so it's a huge slice out of your chronic. i think instead of bringing growth to france it may be from the recession hopefully not but it's not a very great right now why do we have more on the economic hardships faced by europe and the world in the kaiser report next. palestinian leaders have met to discuss ways of easing economic hardships which

lead to the biggest public protest the administration has ever seen demonstrate just smash windows and clash with police and iraqi against a rising living costs in the west bank political analyst ally is that i need a reset nothing will change until israel loosens its grip on the territory the problem up to this moment is that the international community has been. as dean has been playing the role of the pay of they pay the money to the better seen and offered to they try to sustain for as long as they can this palestinian authority but they have to begin to their own and that is to move from the payers to the players they have to play an active role in terms of bringing both the palestinians and israel into the negotiations table there is a problem a leadership problem in israel the leadership today is not ready to move even one step forward on one hand they're not negotiating with the palestinians on the other hand that they're going on the rampage in the settlement activities and if you look

at the kind of scene in the average palestinian in the street they see their land is taken over by the israelis they see that they are not allowed to. harvest their lands because they are in areas see that are totally controlled by israel so what kind of personality can we expect bring me the best magician on the to take over from sun and fire from prison a bus when they do it they cannot do it because the overall atmosphere around is not as not conducive at all for profit economic prosperity. to some other world news in brief a right now clashes between farm them herders kenya have left three people dead more than three hundred farmers raided a village of herders of torching houses and attack you police guards it's the latest attack in a string of clashes over water and land resources which flared up three weeks ago and have already killed at least one hundred people. the majority of somalia's parliament has elected has one shake them up mood as the country's new president is

it seems that it was it was a set up from the beginning because as obscure as this law is for some reason one of the arresting officers knew it was a felony and while we were out there on the road this was this was a arrest they made under a tent they brought out of a larger attention covered us before they actually arrested us but before they brought out the ten before i was under the tent already knew i had a felony charge because the officer in the road telling felony felony to everyone who was out on the road it's more strange that they were so ready and so knowledgeable of the law that the unit judge was unaware when it came to the court definitely feeling like they are repressing our free speech. and their 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

a half a percent similarly with the my sex toy prices are not helping when it comes to russia but i'll get to that later on let's take a look at some of the main movers on the my sex we have to help lenders burbank and we know that it's currently discussing with its investors about the selling seven point six percent of its day in the second day of public offering was the shouting over half a percent that we have carmakers solar's which is the gaming of five and a half percent this hour and that's after reporting that it almost tripled its first half profits and then we have paul years ago does an even better almost thirteen percent in the black this hour that's the gold producer of the year and that's on news that it shareholder me off that off might sell thirty seven point eight percent of its they to another billionaire that's a kid even more now moving on to europe where it's pretty much over flexion of what happened on wall street overnight and the asian markets

a lot of bread today is that the footsie shedding over a half a percent germany's dax is actually recovered just the better it's for at this hour aside investors are really waiting for those decisions without mining and banking stocks are there particularly bad thoughts luxury goods items on logs in the valve well either burberry is shedding around eighteen percent this hour and that's after announcing that its annual profit will be a lower than expected move in though into currencies the euro still strengthen in the. ansley u.s. dollar when it comes to the ruble it's still losing against both major currencies this hour and the oil prices always have a major effect on the russian economy as it is a very energy dependent were seen gains there but at the same time has fallen almost a three week high and that's as there's not a lot of confidence in europe spain and also saudi arabia said that the recent hike in prices that we saw was not justified and now i want to go back and talk about

shopping a small burberry this summer shopping in general in russia because it might become cheaper at least for clothes that is now because since russia joined the world trade organization they'll be more competition the last import taxes and of course this means that customers will have more options and global retailers where new opportunities that explains. that ams is there to another big name tapping into russia's rapidly growing 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 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 other 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 such in produce will be gradually swept away which means their original price tag will remain almost unchanged here in russia this will allow low priced retailers to recreate the formula that led 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 moscow. but i'm talking about closer it's hard af to say so or lots of they look at us we're like twenty and i'm telling you it's the pin day here. i think we're feeding the beats of the cutdowns
