flags and massive furious crowds of the most common sites across the award winning continent lately protests like this will add go in thirty five countries across the world over the next several weeks the global and style stary to voice only in spain alone hundreds of thousands have been voicing their anger ever since the government announced more painful budget cuts for next year everything with spending are is now unemployed and this grim story is pretty much the same for portugal and greece is one of the leaders of the protest movement in madrid he says people have just about had enough behind it the crises and the capitalist system right now in spain france private that came to public that and these causes huge cuts public spending and health system and it took a share and it's affecting millions of poor people it's producing huge you can

employment and it's producing and whole social best composition health gold society with so many going against the system across europe at times clashing violently with the police the decision to award the e.u. with a peace prize has raised many eyebrows this is like giving the prize to frankenstein for being the best monster created during the past twelve months there's only one contender for the peace prize this year and that's julian assad and the fact that he did not win this prize is will be an eternal stain on the nobel committee no one has done more to push peace than julian assange should be getting this award from this committee the fact that they turn to a bunch of machines and technocrats and the a hero is an embarrassment they should go back to making dynamite. this ward is even more questionable to some because of the e.u. is rather dubious peacemaking record and that moreover the current financial turmoil is the biggest danger to peace europe has been bombing libya europe has been bombing syria europe isn't bombing afghanistan or iraq yugoslavia

a few years ago yes it's because they're trying to say ok guys we're giving you a whole year together europe is been spending money they don't have that's going to have to stop that is going to cause more riots in the streets more social unrest more governments failing well perhaps even countries failing and perhaps even people pulling out of the euro could lead to war again in europe in two thousand and nine barack obama won the same award having been in office for only two weeks that was before he sent more troops to afghanistan and waged war in libya but as the latest nobel peace prize award is debated worldwide protesters in spain seem to care little about the prestige down their own survival calls for independence are heard loud and clear in the country's largest and wealthiest region the lumia a clear indication the continent is losing that unity which the nobel committee has decided to. see reporting from madrid in spain

in belgium separated as have scored big gains in the country's dutch speaking region flanders leader of the flemish nationalist parties looking also to become mayor of antwerp one of europe's key port cities it's regarded as a breakthrough for supporters of flemish independence and as belgian politician fill in the class things he says it's been a long time coming. the idea is gaining ground that it's the most important thing because we are having a lot of problems now in belgium we see that france is the federal government doesn't have a majority on the flemish side in the federal parliament although the flemings make up the majority of the population in belgium the federal government doesn't have a majority in flanders and that's of course is a big problem it's a problem of democratic deficits and this means this government doesn't have a real democratic legitimacy in flanders voted for come something completely different that we are getting now with this federal government and friends is an

economic economically socially powerful prosperous region we have we are already if we have a flemish nation we have a flemish people you have to know that blow them is an artificial country it's really two separate countries already within belgium and we see a completely different political consensus on the federation on the loose side and flanders would be perfectly able to have to have an independent state and be a member of the you know european union. the u.n. and arab league envoy to syria has drawn up plans for a three thousand strong peacekeeping force that could see european soldiers police any potential troops the u.s. and u.k. forces are unlikely to take part because of their involvement in other current conflicts while countries like germany and france are expected to play a leading role in national affairs and defense analysts laotians as nice as great care should be taken choosing which countries contribute any peacekeeping force.

let us not forget that countries like france united kingdom have declared that they are supporting the insurgency that they have said they're providing non-lethal support but in fact it seems to their intelligence services are quite simple be supporting the free syrian army they said probably. one of the proposals i think for a zero for mr brahimi peace to try to get a ceasefire on the part of the syrian government but how can the syrian government release to cali implement a cease fire when the rebels don't want the ceasefire because they want to study government militarily and they know they have the backing of the united states and all full members of the european union close and saudi arabia of qatar and on their feet persian gulf arab states turkey of course a member of nato jordan so. we have to see how he goes.

while the u.n. struggles to end violence in syria tensions are on the rise with turkey arc or is now closed its air pay airspace to airspace to syrian civilian flights echoing an earlier move by damascus after turkey intercepted a syrian passenger jet wednesday claiming it was illegally carrying russian made weapons allegations moscow strongly denies parties are an english girl reports. they pointed their guns at those hungover those from the put those on the ground then they drove us back to the plane into the. bruised arms in better dignity with an international scandal thrown in on top all in the name of peace at least that's the stance taken by the turkish authorities when they tried to justify forcefully grounding a syrian plane on route from moscow to damascus to some us. we in turkey on want peace and safety in this region that is our desire which we would never have an incentive to start a war on karate hasn't revealed exactly what was in the cargo of that plane though

they do insist it was russian made a mission and technical equipment something moscow the mentally deny. you can use it was certainly no armaments on this plane and they simply could not have been any the aircraft was carrying a cargo that was being shipped from russian supplier to a legitimate customer in a legitimate way it was a cargo of electrical supplies for radar stations this is a fuel purpose equipment but it is not barred by any international conventions that surely neither do turkish officials say where they received the tipoff about the suppose it weapons on board some of though there are suspicions this is washington telling prime minister earlier one who says he's so independent to go in and go for it down the use the f. sixteen s for all its peace mongering talk and righteous outrage over russia's supposed on women is to help out in peace efforts and cannot appear to be surprised when we open when it comes to the. forty one side in the syrian conflict the rebel

fighters it is supporting the rebels it's allowing as the b.b.c. showed earlier this week large quantities of ammunition. to enter syria. lebanese journalist uniform was described what she believed to be an arms delivery on the border between turkey and syria yannick in the movie scene with the real wire dark clean filled with all of trees armed men indian flashing lights from the trucks packed with weapon while the syrian group takes its share in leaves i was asked not to film the immensity of the journalist you know was interrogated for days by turkish officials before being released when she was back in lebanon should realize the incriminating pictures she'd filmed on the turkish syrian border had been wiped while she was in custody some believe turkey still a t. towards president assad has little to do with the situation in syria and everything

to do with your two arms ambitions i was devilish in this country as a major political player turkey is preparing itself for its one hundredth anniversary and twenty twenty three it was the whole campaign of a very ambitious platform of how turkey is building some fine lines it's going to position itself as a global power on prize establishing itself as a regional boss threatening awful lot war with syria and openly violating iraqi sovereignty by bombing kurdish space is not exactly what bonbon call feats of diplomacy so in turkish officials to speak of peace and stability in the region their words are drowned out by the sound of an exchange of fire with their neighbors in tel aviv r.t. the pentagon confirmed thursday that it sent troops to jordan with some one hundred fifty u.s. officers now station near the border with the rest of syria washington claims it's to bolster jordan's military capabilities of its neighbors conflict escalates libertarian commentator lou rockwell thinks the u.s. could be trying to intimidate damascus. jordan has long been a bit of call it

a satellite the us is not actually an ally it's the province of the us and so why is the us putting in these troops are first of all to imply that some of syria is threatening jordan which of course is not true syria's got their hands full with the us inspired rebels who were trained by the way in turkey as a us air force base for the last past several years before this all started so this is just a way to gin up the tension to bring on more trouble i go i think it's true the u.s. will not use its troops to invade syria but will try a libyan strategy of simply bombing people endlessly from the air very possible and still ahead this hour bahrain security forces again crackdown on peaceful protesters demonstrators are manning political reforms as the monarchy reinforce its ties with its powerful military backer great britain. and as a moscow airport is one of the three members of the pussy riot punk protest band

we'll look at what's behind the decision that is still to come. but first iran says it might consider limiting its enrichment of higher grade uranium if it's allowed to have fuel for a research reactor it's a revival of a previous offer to try and break the talks deadlock over the country's nuclear program but germany wants to hold the hard line or join the e.u. to heighten the already harsh sanctions professor said mohammad marandi from tehran university says iran's policy hasn't changed. the iranians are willing to be more open and allow more intrusive inspections and they're willing. to talk about enriching uranium at twenty percent under certain conditions but in general nothing has changed and increasing sanctions by the west will only make things more difficult because the iranians see the sanctions that are being imposed by western governments as inhuman the intention is to make ordinary iranians suffer there is

a consensus that this is not this doesn't have much to do with the nuclear program the issue is iran iran's independence iran is a country that will not bow down to the western powers and the europeans and americans want to run to near like saudi arabia like most of the other countries in the region and that's the objective to make ordinary iranian tougher polling stations of now closed after russians nationwide voted in the so-called single election day there are more than fifty seven thousand candidates standing for positions from regional heads to municipal officials and for the first time in eight years but it's got to directly choose their own governors meeting a coach you know that has more from moscow. the single voting day in russia has answers and now the polling stations across the country are close overall more than twenty two million russians had an opportunity to arrive at the polling stations

to be defined as much with the members of the united states and he emphasized about the united trust the party has shown better results out of this regional elections than it did to the state duma elections that took place in december last year and as i said before the single voting day was taking place and for the first time in russia in the last eight years remember all our stories are a click away on our two dot com plus a long line exclusives here's what signs are for you right now ukraine's latest military attachment how's this for a marine corps the country's training dolphins at reviving an old soviet project to patrol with military families. to fearless felix an austrian skydiver with the highest ever freefall thirty seven. others above the earth becoming the first man to break the sound barrier without any vehicle all this and more that are to be done. wednesday a moscow court released one of the three pussy riot bad members on probation two

a lot of ability to convince the right not to pressure them into reform that perhaps they misunderstand the strength they have will perhaps you know they're scared to their interests which are tied up in that region could be damaged if they you know if there was a democratic change but the reality is the people of bahrain a forty four democracy that calling for change doesn't have to be against the west interests actually i could be very much in the interests of the west and i know the rest of the world to have a democratic and stable country. turning now to some other stories making headlines across the globe libya's national congress has elected a new prime minister now he's a dad was voted into office after his predecessor failed to form a government acceptable to the divided national assembly he was a longtime opponent of deposed leader moammar gadhafi and a human rights advocate saddam is faced with bringing stability to libya and has already promised to make security one of his top priorities. the former king of cambodia has died at age eighty nine in beijing after suffering
