country and effectively it's hemorrhaging money at the moment because the budgets were made in the good old days when property markets were going through the roof not today nobody can sell a property nobody can manage to get a job and over think the government simply doesn't have the money even for essential facilities like health care clearly there is a concern amongst the doctors but you're going to see an incredible mind about me just profiteering being made by the private health sector but i think actually the truth is the ultimate the governments are hideously inefficient when they do large scale health provision it's the pure on certain tastes spaniards are not sure whether their economy counts or vive in its current creaking states. and while they can on the crisis in the eurozone shows no signs of abating the told don't so the financial world outside to be engaged in banking and to find out more about the secret meetings held in so little a table. and while the un peace envoy says

a no holds barred look at the global financial headlines tune into cars report on r t. l c live from moscow let's move on now the u.n. an arab league peace envoy to syria so that can be no military solution to the conflict moscow has wice to support for political transition in syria but says president assad's exit cannot be a precondition for a deal to end the crisis washington as the ceiling leader must step down with the plan to get analysing the last could provide courses to secure the country's chemical weapons if i thought agrees to a peaceful transition and there are fears the arsenal could fall into the wrong hands u.s. and middle east experts are also saying the conflict is pushing the countries in the rainy and stockpiles at risk he reportedly has up to fifty tons of and of which to you are a new one up to grade class nuclear bombs and a middle east commentator and no got call shero believes the uranium ratio is just
11:34 pm
another red herring. now there's kind of a sequence a chain or alarmists in our use that are being produced concerning chemical weapons nuclear or any i'm so that's the syrian regime there's a process of learning for that they are stressed out as western powers very miserly get i think they're buying up all these different reasons for them to step in and take control it will start to treat the country should dot i think i do want to start is that said no that is straight that iran might get this year in humanitarian you know i mean cyclical thing it. showed us and it's i think it's another in this long list still. force. for two or western states to intervene and it seems that there's a lot of preparation for pretext for stepping aside for taking control of the situation including the u.k. when the u.k. government decided to. do so you see that there are multiple failures.
11:35 pm
which is. really shocking the fate of syria could be decided this blatantly when here when rebels bombed by a bar with western art state there are more questions of who exactly is fighting in their ranks damascus claims the latter is from a broader bringing radical islam which is only intensifying the conflict. looks at how this standoff is attracting comatose from far beyond the country's borders. she keeps her son's room exactly the way he left it last spring his clothes and art supplies are the only reminders she has of twenty one year old son i'm only some you told his mother he was going to a conference in libya he wouldn't stay more than one week to ten days he went in for the whole week that he stayed there he called home every day he called in the twenty second of march and said he's coming back to tunisia but never arrived at
11:36 pm
the beginning of april i got a skype call telling me my son was captured on the border as he was crossing from turkey to syria in a group of fighters. further proof came with the syrian t.v. report in which sami was featured among the captured rebel fighters he talked about his coming from tunisia to fight for the syrian people still explanation wasn't enough to ease the minds of his parents if anything it made matters worse they simply can't understand how intimidating man transformed into a jihadist noticing they do have this. year a girl suddenly began praying and i was very happy because i'm a muslim and i thought it was a good thing maybe after that he started going to a mosque and heard something that made me go off to syria official reports claim some four hundred out of the five thousand mosques in tunisia are controlled by radical islamists who call in their followers to take part in jihad in foreign
11:37 pm
countries the exact number of tunisians fighting in syria or libya or rock is not known but the families and friends of those who went off to fight in a foreign land are saying that even one death is already one too many especially for those who are fighting a foreign leader in a different country the government says that they're watching the situation closely but relatives of those who have died are not convinced they believe that the government's silence is as good as a green light for the impressionable youngsters. it's known that for the last ten years most terrorist groups have tunisians in their midst the officials know about these things but don't say anything these fighters went to libya then they went to syria by way of turkey we're talking about more than one hundred tunisians already killed in fighting in syria. this statement is supported by united nations human rights investigators this report published at the end of two thousand and twelve more of an increasing number of fighters pouring into syria investigator said
11:38 pm
people from at least twenty nine different countries are fighting alongside syrian rebels most of them are sunni's hailing from neighboring countries but some have come to syria from as far away as america and europe they get called in for supposedly higher purpose but once they're on the ground the situation proves far more mundane. it's impossible for any arab combat some fighting in syria to get treated whoever gets injured dies i dare them to bring me a single arab who got injured and treated in a field hospital we are being treated as cannon fodder we are the grease used to abrogate the syrian blood for them a city got to see despite its warnings many young men in tunisia still choose to go abroad to battle infidels in the name of allah it only goes go r.t. in tunisia. while some people suffer from bloody conflicts others literally make fun out of them and develop in the u.k.

a statement from alone but who knew one of the dead people take a little personally and often held meetings with around fifty thousand demonstrators staged a protest of her is vowing to retaliate against france if they close and found. at least twenty five people have been injured after a home until the egyptian close and we've been camping outside his prolific narrow came under attack an unknown group for petrol bombs a big tent which has been in tahrir square for weeks and have fired rubber bullets as a security forces remains deeply divided by political turmoil since president mohamed morsi granted himself sweeping powers in. as the global financial downturn shows little sign of improvement bunking regulators have been criticized for trying to make life easier for the lenders
11:42 pm
instead of the public the basel committee of central bankers has loosened the buy in to protect lenders from any future crises but as peter on a report was the secretive nature of their decision making it was raising the most questions. have you ever heard the want to the bank is the billions and bars all chances are you probably haven't but six times a year central bank heads from the u.s. europe asia and everywhere in between representing around three quarters of global economic output gather in the swiss city to talk shop behind closed doors i personally also don't like these secretive meetings because. you never know what in effect. is discussed in these meetings it's something that has a tradition that's put there play i mean bankers have always talked to each other in a more secretive way the whole business of banking is not really built on transparency
11:43 pm
but rather on trust and confidentiality the continuing global financial crisis has seen the banking sector firmly in the spotlight with more than a few accusing fingers pointed in the direction of bankers it's the job of the secretive bars all committee to set regulations on banks the chairman of the group says he wants the public to be better informed about the work they do it's not that many years ago since this was basically a group of central banks it's expanded its membership considerably and in the process of that the whole governance arrangements of have changed as well and i think this is an attempt to explain to you in the world in general what those changes amount to and whether critics of the group are scathing in their criticism of what they see as an old boys club looking out for the needs of banking bosses as opposed to keeping the industry in line bezel three has failed to meet any objective any you know faint hope of reining in banks this this is what we talk
11:44 pm
about today the banks does have to be reined in because the banking system in itself as a general rule has left its you know bottom sense despite mervyn king saying that he wants. people to better understand what the basel committee actually do the very nature of the banking industry and its need for a certain level of secrecy means that the big decisions that will affect people all over the world will continue to be made by a small group of people meeting in that building just behind me peter all of a r.t. basel switzerland a thousand stick to the streets in bahrain on saturday in support of political prisoners and the latest wave of government demonstrations and the chief of public security in bahrain tariq al has sung claims process a part of the democratic process hazing to me interests of human.
11:45 pm
whether you die from high or to the depths to. touch the power of the wind or drift in the beauty of the currents. being well prepared is a must and if you are lucky enough. you'll never forget your experience we only need a screen that's going to be having. the whites see up close and below the ice on our team.
11:46 pm
the. russians would be so. only about someone from finest impression. who starts on t.v. dot com. for the last twenty months has been seeing demonstrations and protests in its
11:47 pm
streets and how is the government dealing with those dissenters we're joined. by the country's chief of security a general i asked thank you so much for joining us and my first question to you would be what is the current situation the security situation how is the government dealing with the protests because i've seen in the baby's here and everyone television that protests will take place and how you got to dealing with i thank you very much for coming and seeing me. actually as you know behind has been on a reform project since the last over twelve years now. this has been a vast project and behind it and the reform is actually on all fronts the main or the heart of this project is the democratization of bahrain now protests are actually at the heart of the democracy of the democratic process in bahrain and the protests were never good if you have a democracy so it's something that we learn and we learn to live with this is we
11:48 pm
talk about protests however riots what you cannot accept in a democracy and that's when. people come to a protest maybe even a peaceful protest but you would find a group coming for example pre-owned with lots of cocktails and other weapons and then they start breaking the law attacking. public cross property or attacking police force that's where you have to intervene and preserve the herd. maybe i should say she's from the opposition that preserving the law and bob it has been done with excessive force at times do you agree with it which i mean is there any case i don't think cases of excessive force but there are three main standards that we use when we deal with any security situation and we have to use force.
11:49 pm
and the proportionality legality in a city so in any situation. these three standards are observed now that does not mean that. you won't find anybody that would sometimes probably go beyond this that happens and people sometimes break the law either you know. as protesters and rioters or even as members of the police who would go and sometimes maybe go beyond the limit the legal limit that was given to them or the oldest when this happened and if it happens we have our legal procedures to take care of this and deal with it so people are put to trial and they face the will do you often policeman break the law and use excessive force do they often get punished yes of course. now as you know we have a and but it's been within the ministry of interior who actually is. independent of
11:50 pm
the public security and answers directly to the minister of interior and this embodiment is in charge of looking into these accusations. abuses by by any member of the public security was the way you like or you know from the opposition that. the torture allegations and prisons and things like that is that all the reality or is it just made. i mean you know we've heard. delegations visiting the prisons and maybe i think you've had your. visited one of our police stations and i was hoping that he would visit the prison. you know these are allegations they are baseless we have investigated i mean if there is a real. complaint by someone then we would go and investigate and would take action if we found any basis for that complaint however to act you know to throw
11:51 pm
accusations in the air i mean you can everybody can say anything but the reality is the evidence is that you know that's not happening and actually why do we need to have any. type of torture if the the public prosecutor is a different or independent entity from the ministry of interior we don't we don't we're not in charge of the full investigation and prosecution in the court of law. so torture is usually happens in countries where the police need to extract. maybe confessions to go with the chorus to the court of law we don't have to do this or we have to and we have to do the initial inquiry and then the rest of the investigation is done by the public prosecutor so that is something that we are way away from so we you know it's nothing that we have to really.
11:52 pm
worry about because. you know as i said if you have a complaint please come forward and will investigate it however all the prisons now . are fitted with c.c.t.v. even the interview rooms and police stations they're all fitted with c.c.t.v. and visual and audio recording and i'm sure if you have visited as i said one of the police stations. and now every police station has that so you know. i don't know how we how would people ever again how these allegations of torture are made. fires understand if i got to correct you all the city councilors and although your records were put in place. because of the allegations of torture so were the cases before right it's actually these are actually in response of the recommendations by the b. i.c.i. of recommendations to the the bahrain international. commission commission.
11:53 pm
they had recommended a number of recommendations we have actually with you know the all these recommendations are only part of our modernization and reform process within the ministry of interior so all that recommendation did was to expects be done i some of the projects that were already had in mind of course as any modern police station police service or force today. we rely on modern technology to. not just protect ourselves but also for better. policing and better investigation why those protests turned violent bahrain has always been a rather peaceful country like many countries in the region and what you think what's behind the radicalization who stands behind it don't forget that we live i mean we're a small country and the region and. i think the whole world has seen by could but
11:54 pm
the causation in one way or another. is no difference and i mean the internet and the open sources today the media they will play a part in this. so you know this wave of radicalization of that took place actually made us and actually resulted in more violence on the streets against the police during protests and public gatherings i'm sure that very quickly things will go back as they were however with better restrictions and better knowledge. we have almost all the religions or many religions but not just muslims like sunnis
11:55 pm
or she has never we never had problems with religion but. i'm not religious but. radicalized or not anybody can i say sion and any side actually leads to bad things. to violence to. people. actually trying to take law by the hands of people thinking that. you know they own they have the right they hold that they only have the rights no others have no i think then behind. we all live together we have the same rights everybody there's no segregation on the basis of religion or ethnicity or anything else there had been a story or shall we say made lots of noise in the press about doctors who were arrested and detained and some of them even later were tortured. what was the story
11:56 pm
behind that if you could clarify for. such of the doctors or anybody who commits a crime. i would have to face the law and in the court of law behind you can you can if you have any allegations have any complaints you can file them an investigation will take place and that's exactly what happened in this case. doctors have filed complaints and the investigations going on by the court but what are the charges against me with the law although that is the part of the public prosecutors because they are in charge as i said of charging and prosecuting of the court of law it's not the police issue but obviously that story as i say is that we are picked up from the press brought some additional pressure international pressure in bahrain about the human rights situation the torture allegations everything do you feel that question international pressure as the chief of police don't to be honest i have the law and i follow the law i abide by the law now if i
11:57 pm
break the law my. main concern and my pressure is from within behind not outside but as i said you know there are people can i get anything they can they can have their own allegations. however we will investigate if there is a complaint as i said we will investigate them the problem with bahrain is that i think there have been an. unfair media campaign against craig. and i don't know. what the. people come to buy and i have people here in my office i have them here sitting and they say we you know they came from outside they heard something and then when they came to bahrain they saw something totally different and they say you know. it's a totally different story and that's what we see before. you go one report something from behind your disk do as you just did you come to bahrain and you try
11:58 pm
to report the real story from. the heart from the rich just recently from the minister of justice that a new kind of measure be implemented so that the religious leaders local mosques in local communities will be more. not to start right. will this become something of a new legislation will this become a law or just a temporary measure to silence the writing of protests or will not about silencing the protests but. i think that question should be addressed to the minister of justice goes that's that field we has the police if a when the legislation comes out then we are a buffalo. responsible for forcing the cloak thank you so much general this will get all that up for us thinking on the security situation.
11:59 pm
choose your language. because we can we know in the financial crisis they still cannot. choose the kids that can sense he can. choose to opinions that you think are great to. choose the stories get him to like choose the access to. good. news that secret laboratory to mccurdy was able to build a new world most sophistic.
