more violent unrest in egypt despite curfews and a state of emergency declared in parts of the country and the president calling for a national dialogue. despite the growing turmoil and us president barack obama held egypt and libya success stories for american foreign policy this in a t.v. interview where he also praised outgoing secretary of state hillary clinton for helping him with regime change. and later we'll report from bahrain where doctors say they face the same brutal treatment as the anti-government protesters they are trying to say.
8:01 am
it's five pm in moscow three pm in cairo you're watching r t with me and he said now away our top story this hour and the state of emergency and curfews declared by egypt's president in three provinces haven't stopped egyptians from battling security forces as protesters continue to vent their anger against the government the deadly unrest is now in its fifth day and having been sparked by protest marking the second anniversary of the two thousand and eleven revolution well true reports from cairo. president mahmoud c.-a issued the state of emergency yesterday in three cities and susan is the latest in the worst violence in the last three days he also employees a curfew between nine pm and six am to have already been calls for protests to break this curfew starting at eight pm tonight they say in defiance of the
8:02 am
president's what this will mean on the ground is that likely to be several street battles between security forces and protesters as they remain on the streets also according to egyptian emergency law security forces are now able to wrest citizens and detain them probably thirty days without charges to likely to see a wave of arrests across these three cities as people of violent because and clashed with police but the violence continues here in the capital as well as security forces are firing tear gas and government protests as they have been all night quite dramatic scenes taken out of taking going to hold it down from cairo leaving many to question whether the president may actually resort to to carry a curfew here in the capital as well some have welcomed the move by the president to impose this state of emergency as he had been criticized for sitting on the fence how the opposition coalition the national salvation front still maintaining a stance against the president they are demanding of the cabinet resign the constitution be revoked and the national salvation government take over so it's
8:03 am
unlikely that they will actually have dialogue with the president on this point there's also protests planned today across the country in particular in the capital against the president who they see as illegitimate this is also marking the second anniversary of january twenty eighth one of the bloodiest days of the eight hundred they are rising which saw the protesters take to haiti for the first time really in this growing crisis is going to be a lot of pressure on the president to make this these dialogues work with the opposition and sort of the crisis across the country. president morsi has called on all political groups to participate in national dialogue this monday but political activists some a foundry says it's down to the protesters to keep confronting the government if they want things to change. alyse feel that people in the street. challenge them a challenge that or thirty particularly in terms of constitutional amendment we are
8:04 am
hearing also times that people in muslim brotherhood do not want to change the constitution and seize as a constitution is a pistol over the globe. saw i think is the more people exercise pressure on them the more they can react to positively under try to accommodate all political trends and all political factions within as a new political system i'm afraid that the muslim brotherhood would like to manipulate the state operators for the sake people speaking about this issue and we have to build a new democratic system build on. neutral state apparatus in egypt other than a state a party to serving one political party. or you are still in that period. a great collaboration over the last four years that's how u.s. president barack obama described his first term in office with hillary clinton
8:05 am
who's now leaving the post of secretary of state both appeared in a joint televised interview as america's top diplomat prepares to step down let's take a closer look at how the duo defended their foreign policy in the middle east well responding to calls for decisive action in the region obama cited egypt as one of the examples where his administration played a leading role in aiding regime change let's take a closer look at what he actually said i think that it had it not been for the leadership we showed you might have seen a different outcome there we do nobody a service when we leap before we look make sense right but if we actually take a look at what's happening in egypt we've been reporting in fact just this hour unrest and mass protests are leading the egyptian president morsi to declare a state of emergency and nightly curfews so violence is raining there and president obama who promoted change in the country did used to enjoy high approval ratings a month gyptian especially as let's take a look at some numbers in
8:06 am
a recent poll show it shows that the u.s. leader has in fact witnessed a sharp drop in popularity in the region especially in egypt like i said look at these numbers in terms of foreign policy thirty four percent back in two thousand and nine now at just fifteen percent in twenty twelve so a people's opinions on the ground there certainly changing another legacy of obama's first term in office his handling of the revolution in libya again the president saying in this interview washington's foreign policy made a difference well it certainly did make a difference despite criticisms that the administration hasn't been proactive enough in the region obama's response moammar gadhafi himself probably doesn't agree with that assessment let's remember those horrific pictures that came out of gadhafi being murdered. the nato led intervention went on for some eight months this is a temper attack on the embassy in benghazi that left four top american officials
8:07 am
dead including the ambassador and of course raise questions about america's handling of the situation questions that clinton in fact is still answering this is what obama had to say about not being able to control the situation we are not going to be able to control every aspect of every transition and transformation sometimes they're going to go sideways perhaps that's why we're seeing a bit more caution when it comes to syria both obama and clinton admit that the conflict there should be handled carefully with the u.s. president has a tin on whether intervention would actually help resolve the crisis now journalist an antiwar activist don de bar says the u.s. foreign policy in the region has been a complete failure. look at the condition of the world right now and know that delivery clinton has been active active for four years really disheartening thing about the show which is what it was shown on sixty minutes exclusively in the
8:08 am
united states was this present awful lot of time trying to explain to people how these two former primary campaign two thousand and eight adversaries could work together for four years and barack obama saying if it wasn't for hillary clinton we wouldn't have achieved success in libya with the fact that this country which was bombed for eight months by nato by the us and its allies with thousands of people dying many homes and the infrastructure that was built up in the last forty years being devastated the front of the people shouldn't surprise anyone that clinton avoided the actual testimony and so everyone else had testified which is what any witness wants to do because then you can't be contradicted by any subsequent testimony and at this point in time she's leaving with glasses we were reminded several times that are consequence of the brain injury she suffered that didn't allow her to testify and now she's being you know patted on the back by obama
8:09 am
forest success in libya that she still hasn't accounted for the failure of its ferdie's its it's like watching teenagers. raney authorities are set for a new round of talks with the opposition later this week amid continuing crackdown on anti regime rallies across the nation the sunday monarchy has been widely accused by rights groups of using tear gas and torture against protesters as are to select their subsequent reports even those who try and treat the injured demonstrators say they are being victimized. nada dhaif was among a group of doctors who were trying to help the injured during a protest in bahrain she claims that after violently crushing the dissent the all thora g.'s turned their attention to her and her colleagues who were providing first aid they deny. health care to the patients and protesters. the doctors did not obey the orders for such.
8:10 am
decided to punish those doctors i was taken to a place for ten days that i didn't know where it was. all that time i was blindfolded and handcuffed i was in a solitary confinement for back to twenty one days. and they would just open the door of the cell and beat me up and there was a member of the royal family who directly was responsible of my porch or she she was beating me and she looked like you to me almost two dozen doctors were arrested back then this for the fuel the anger of the protesters and turned the hospital grounds into the scene of the rally the sound money hospital is bahrain's leading medical institution and that's where most of the arrests have been made after those events it now looks like a fortress guarded heavily by the right police and not everybody can get a human rights activists or if you had suffered for speaking out against the regime
8:11 am
and decided to come here for treatment you could make matters even worse for yourself anyone who was injured from the protests they cannot go to the hospital because they will be arrested beaten and taking to the jail last year many protester and in jail where torture insults and money we have a story and the similar people and protests are being tortured and the jail but in my country protests there were tortured inside. britain not who was charged with treason and sentenced to fifteen years in prison before being acquitted because of what she believed to be international pressure on bahrain's government the fate of many other doctors remains unclear the person who allegedly tortured not and others princes. has been officially charged by police she denies all allegations against her meanwhile the guy. woman stands resumed that the action of took against the
8:12 am
hospital was the right thing to do. these doctors managed to control the emergency unit in the first floor of the hospital and started to perform political acts when a hospital is turned into a base for political and sick work and this is a real disaster we had an unbiased committee investigating the hospital condemn the acts of these doctors and the case against one of the members of the world family may seem as an indication the bahrain's government has bowed to the negative global reaction with the doctor scandal being far from the only torture accusation c.c.t.v. cameras have been installed at all prisons in a move to become more transparent according to the authorities but with protests in the gulf states to continuing and accusations of human rights violations intensifying the opposition is still wondering what happens in the places where the cameras cannot see lets you see reporting from the kingdom of bahrain.

8:16 am
very very low over a driver who is just changing lanes at the time he was apparently training for a search and rescue missions himself and then later on in the city of new gil in the urals we'll see just minor business driving along and suddenly a tank comes across the road someone hasn't worked out how to use the brakes yet i think he was the tank was on his way on the way from the tank factory nearby over to a test range of the side of the road the drivers of that car a little bit shocked to see it emerge at that sort of pace there were some bits of investigations but in each of the cases the aviation authority here found that that was all with procedures low flying trainings quite important we also find for that for the helicopter training that is also very necessary and as the as the local authority said all the investigators looking into it said people like seeing helicopters swooping about to know that there are forces is there so i suppose it's
8:17 am
the argument as well and that as far as the tank goes the tank fractures himself said this is totally normal the tanks have to drive across the reason actually a red light that is you can't just see it's just off screen showing drivers perhaps not very well they should have stopped and the tank factory saying people should watch out their tanks about. you on r t dot com right now after a failed run for presidency rest as billionaire businessman turned politician rocker of is eyeing a seat in the state duma find out more on line. lies dancing a free pass to the theater while an american performing arts center is offering just that all you have to do is post live coverage of the performance on twitter by now. more on her website. a multi-million dollar tax evasion case has been rescheduled in moscow the trial came to

have warned that recent heavy snowfall has heightened the risk of britain heading into a triple dip recession and with the country's independent retailers under constant pressure from supermarket chains are she's probably boyko went to see how one small business has managed to turn the tide and even thrive it's older than buckingham palace and tower bridge and it's been a local store in the whole lot of rural east england for three hundred and seventy years is visits as you stumble across the village shop in this remote region of norfolk say that it's like an oasis in the middle of the does it it was faced with going out of business until twenty five villages stepped in raise five thousand pounds to keep it open and open to work that for free i couldn't even . the community nature of the village with. the free
8:23 am
workforce allows it to stay open and breakeven i think people are happy in their lives by working for free and it's actually quite therapeutic to come in and do something knowing that your contribution has a meaning and purpose the village isn't ours it's just heritage and we've got to make sure he does continue to the next generation volunteers who run the salt say that there are two secrets to success the locally sourced produce means that they're propping up the local economy take for example your free range eggs delivered from a nearby village there's a second recess secrets a lot of the famous chocolate biscuits customers travel far and wide for this homemade treat but even with volunteers staying open is hard the onslaught of major national chains is immense buying power tempts shoppers with food sold the next to nothing has killed off thousands of independent british shops leaving ghost villages and now wait well obviously we're up against supermarkets and we all use
8:24 am
supermarkets but to be able to have a local store which does local produce and it's summer where you can chat to people you meet everybody but the gossip that goes on in here is amazing it would be dreadful if we'd often it because once you lose something like this you can never get it back again and they're not alone in getting together to save their small shop from extinction there are three hundred other community stores in some of the u.k.'s most rural pockets winning customers by knowing that retail means detail so operating in really difficult economic times but they really punching above their weight community shops are offering something very often quite different from what a supermarket is offering for example they offer cafes they're offering postal services they're offering somewhere to go in and talk to your neighbors and your friends and if working for free is what it takes to keep the. hearing him shall pay thing and say be it well you know. i mean to do it's the kind of spirit
8:25 am

8:26 am
it was singing had been going on for thirty minutes at that point this rant was more like a hip hop filibuster stopping the whole show and dragging on and on and on and so i think security just wanted to silence him in general not silence his anti obama opinions so you know whoopee next time when you want to bring up obama's drone usage or total disregard for the constitution then keep it under three minutes and everything will be just fine but that's just my opinion. cool.
