a vehicle later i also saw police come down an employee over a restaurant just off the front line the man was trying to get home he said before the police officer with bird shot to shot him he fell to the ground mistakes taken by an ambulance this comes off to protest is three moneths office on the promise yesterday after which the security forces have reclines with the excessive use of tear gas many people are condemning the police this morning saying this is another example of all police to come if you just make insecurity pulled his hands of one of the keep him on to the revolution something the president must address there are still people on to her square and protest plans in the future opposition forces on not backing down there has been calls from both sides for dialogue the president's second so hostile dialogue with the opposition forces ahmed el baradei one of the elite is enough salvation front said he would engage in dialogue on the condition that they would be the day the government would be to resign and national salvation

government would take over and the constitution would be revoked the president himself has said he will not listen to these said preconditions we do see this you see this kind of happening any time in the future so we expect the violence in the streets the protests across the country in the coming weeks bill to encourage their own activists and journalists chandan says developments in egypt show no one is manning the helm anymore. egypt has been totally destabilized and remember the egyptian government is waiting for what the egyptians called a loan from sunday look there's a protest is a popular protest song about the world bank i.m.f. loan to egypt and all the western newspapers some analysts are saying well egypt's not going to get that loan if this is the destabilisation that it's visiting the country but the thing is what who can control things in egypt now a popular slogan of the arab spring which i call the arab sting for nato has been

the fear has gone but perhaps the fear has gone by along with the fear so has any sense of security and nation building and state building so really anyone control what's going on and this is this is rooted partly as well because of the trial against those who accused of being guilty author of the deaths at the football match so really it's also it's also you know openly said that nor can control anything in egypt are currently you can always check out his twitter feed for the latest on what is going on in cairo and bell true who's report we saw a little earlier she's also posting her own updates. and still to come on the program this hour a ledge to atrocities by the army of mali raise eyebrows at the u.n. and cast a shadow on what some see as the french leaders crusade visit to the north african states. the justification of terrorism while waging wars on terror russia's top diplomat hints that the inconsistency of the west's approach could be behind the

deadlock in syria's bloody standoff. well that's still to come but first america's forces in afghanistan may have been running on iranian oil in a clear violation of washington's only fuel embargo against the islamic state the pentagon has admitted it can't vouch for the source of years worth of fuel due to a complicated supply system that is going to can pick up the story. the u.s. gives money to the afghan government to buy fuel for its forces now u.s. officials especially specter general for afghanistan reconstruction say they cannot verify that the fuel purchased for afghan security forces in recent years did not come from iran it could be their way of saying that it probably did come from the wrong and it could mean that the u.s. has violated its own distinctions there violating u.s. taxpayer dollars go to remain coffers those sanctions that the u.s. has put in place not only bar u.s. companies from doing business with iran but also punish third party countries for

doing business with iran but no matter how many rounds of sanctions are in effect they were never watertight even though the european union under a lot of pressure from washington stopped buying uranium oil you have a host of other countries that still do iran's biggest buyer now biggest buyers now are china india and japan and these countries are oil thirsty especially china so china imports of uranium oil india's imports of iranian crude were up thirty percent according to tanker arrival data western sanctions have you reins oil exports in two thousand and twelve leading to a very deep plunge in the arena and current. robust demand from its top buyers as well as the purchase of new tankers allow the red to unexpectedly boost exports late last year despite the sanctions the u.s. can't absolutely force those major economies especially china to stop buying from iran political and economic ramifications of such pressure would be significant but

the u.s. government is trying their prompting those other countries to buy oil from washington's allies saudis and katori so you can imagine how happy the gulf states are about this whole new business coming in but washington is resolute to put more pressure on other countries to put forward more threats like cutting them off from the u.s. banking system so many countries the situation starts to look more like blackmail than anything else i was regards to iran and blackmail is essentially what the u.s. calls diplomacy which by the way is not working but washington acts to hold not only ran hostage to sanctions but the whole world which is of course creating more tension. the sanctions fall ations and rhetoric surrounding iran are all proving great creative fuel for all the website cartoonists. colman the online exclusive section checkouts if you can.

is. russia's foreign minister sergey lavrov has highlighted what he sees as double standards when it comes to the arab revolutions in the syrian crisis in particular addressing a major international security forum in munich he said if the world community had stuck to its initial agreements the civil war in syria would have spiraled into a state of mayhem the role of a has the details. the underlying theme of so to be a lot of rope speech was a few cheap unity with foreign partners furthering discussion however it was certainly not all sweetness and light from the russian foreign minister one of

those questions that he said russia wanted to put to their western partners was how could the west justify their quest for regime change in certain countries while turning a blind eye to acts of terror this is just one of many times he either alluded to or mentioned by name the conflict in syria talking about acts of terror committed by the opposition troops opposition forces within syria there against the us the army against civilians now he also went on to ask the question of who decides which state is a candidate for regime change it seems that some are wary some aren't looking at the ongoing situation in syria where it's been deemed that bashar al assad must step aside by foreign powers not once again reiterated today by the united states vice president joe biden in his address here in munich where is some states aren't considered candidates thinking more about the gulf monarchies where we've also seen

protests in public uprising there of foreign minister lavrov spoke direct to those western powers when he talked about furthering international discussion saying that if well they kept their promises to speak to all sides in the syrian conflict that not conflict could well be over by now. and foreign minister sergei lavrov also met privately with the leader of the key opposition group the syrian national coalition for the first time more as our how he said there was a mountain to climb before the rebel group would talk to the syrian government. reports of extra judicial killings by the modern army of escalated all the way to the un the blocks and genocide envoy says he's deeply concerned it claims by activists that the army which is largely backed by french troops is committing ethnic reprisal attacks and other atrocities this comes as forsworn and it's all a visit to the north african country where his forces are fighting islamic radicals

on there the french president announced the mission will be long and will wrap up in several weeks strasberg based journalist robert holliday believes that island is simply trying to score cheap political points with this trip. he may regard this as a window of opportunity to present this as a great french excess which militarily technically tactically certainly looks like let's be honest but it's his opportunity because clearly in the background there is considerable american assistance there now british troops coming in there talking about eight thousand african troops it's not going to be further out i may say the french are very reluctant to approach the algerian from to go too closely because algeria and france as you know a long history with. a bitter civil war i think this may well be the last chance on house to claim a victory before it all becomes obviously an allied operation. britain is removing

the welcome sign from its doors as the government fears the flow of migrants into the country might skyrocket for you think the promoting the u.k. is a great destination may have gone a bit too far off the pretty boy has more as one official put it the negative ad campaign about britain would help to dispel the myth that the streets in the u.k. all paved with gold and the politicians certainly are worried and they've got it wrong in the past the previous year was the year of the olympics and politicians trump and trumpeting great britain and how long and in britain is the best destination the world billions of pounds poured into advertising to really sell the u.k. but it seems that for immigrants potential immigrants from rumania and from bol garia the message is that britain isn't so great after all so a lot of people see that sort of as quite far cicle the fact that the government is willing to trash its own image and to admit that there are problems with the

economy in disarray that there's a housing crisis and there are problems with schools and hospitals everyone's been having a good old chuckle over the idea of a negative ad campaign and yes some people have actually said that it's quite insulting but remain ians them for vogue ariens but one newspaper has even suggested that people send in their own suggestions for what an anti britain poster would look like and the result has been really quite scathing and quite harsh to britain as a country we've got slogans that include u.k. yuck and come to britain and clean the toilets or even britain we haven't left ourselves because the public transport isn't running so people very sort of mocking at the same time but quite scathing about the country westminster is bound by law so they have to follow these rules and they have to allow anybody who wishes to come over in twenty fourteen to enter the country but a lot of citizens in the u.k.

feel that it's insulting to those people and a waste of money having advertised britain previously. as britain is highlighting all the downsides of living there remain. campaign beautiful women like kate middleton and cheap booze appear in the list of the main advantages of living we've got a collection of the. women. hatred and racism in the israel football league takes a look at the jerusalem team making its extreme right friends extremely angry. fluff the u.s. expresses outrage over the tara bombing over the of the american embassy in turkey but critics say it's washington's practice of poking its nose into other country's affairs which provoked the attack.

which. we can with. some of. the consensus. choose to get to. choose the stories that impact the. choose the access to. it's.

the way. it continues here in r.t. a leftist group opposing america's foreign strategy and its influence on turkish politics has claimed responsibility for the attack on the u.s. embassy in turkey capital ankara a security guard was killed when a suicide bomber detonated his explosives on the mission's doorstep on friday police have arrested three people over the blast lawrence freeman from executive intelligence review magazine explains why turkey has become a target for radicals. it's obvious right now that there's a whole escalation. tire region going from north africa into the middle east and president. obama administration and british

in these areas has obviously inflamed. the insurgents to the point that they are now targeting these western powers however the united states and the british and the fragile also supporting tens of thousands of jihadi extremists in syria and in other parts of the region so you have well armed well prepared trained terrorists on the border region with turkey and syria probably now inside turkey so i think this is very bad news is obviously great opposition inside turkey and i think the the president other prime minister is behaving foolish to are actually have this close working relationship with the west and he's actually undermining his own country and his own security. jerusalem football team his fans are renowned for chanting racist anti arab slogans assigned to muslims for the first time supporters are openly disappointed at the me which some say is like welcoming in

the enemy. a report on the boiling anger that's never far from spilling over. the games in there but the actions out here these really football team they told us of them is making headlines not for what it does on the pitch but what it does oafish the only leading team in the country never to have signed an arab player because of family pressure h.r. is a bastion of israel's political white if i am one other than the don't love that the enemy will be a player in my team or you could see. that it was. chance like this we hate all arabs only the talk of the races croquet no it doesn't happen often but tonight's matches between d'etat jerusalem and a local israeli arab team the police are not taking any chances which is why these gates are for the jewish fans and the other side of the stadium is for the palestinian supporters now the match is just finished and as you see the bay tajiri

some supporters are walking out behind me but it will be and not an hour and a hoss before the police give permission to the arab fans to leave the stadium but keeping the two sides apart does little to dispel the hatred in march last year hundreds of baitullah fans rampaged through jerusalem or after a game chanting death to the arabs and randomly attacking arab work has one bizarre both trying to say that there are just a few resources five to twenty people but that's not right racism is in the d.n.a. of the steam it's in their blood. we fought to is a football legend in israel he was the first arab to play for israel national team and to represent the country at the olympic games. i remember playing against the steam their supporters cursed me because i'm an arab muslim if this is not racism what is it that problem is about to get a whole lot bigger team owner of russian israeli tycoon

a coyote guide to mecca recently announced his decision to hire two muslim players from chechnya and. it's not good they're doing it for nothing these players from chechnya aren't with the jewish people or not with the team we have different values. while other countries have faced international sanctions for racist incitement by families israel has so far avoided such close scrutiny but fears are growing that the beautiful game there is slowly being turned into a source of violence racism and hatred policy r.t. jerusalem. and there's been violence outside the football arena in the west bank to israeli forces of forcefully cleared a palestinian activist encampment there arresting seven palestinians and one settler the site was set up to protest against the expansion of israeli settlements in the area the army fired tear gas and stun grenades to disperse the protesters they also reportedly removed journalists from the site. despite

a prime minister has been forced to deny he received more than two hundred fifty thousand euros worth of secret payments over ten year period speaking in front of his conservative party mariano rajoy said he will post his tax declarations online to prove the allegations are false the scandal erupted last thursday when a national spanish newspaper published records allegedly showing prominent members of the ruling party taking donations. for. a quarter of a million twitter users have had their accounts hacked the company's information security director admitted user names emails and other data have been stolen along with log in passwords twitter said professionals were behind the attack and pointed to similarities between this one and a previous hack at the new york times which the newspaper blamed on chinese based operators. it was the bloodiest battle in human history and a turning point in world war two seventy years ago the soviet union snatched victory in stunning grad defeating the nazi death machine tom barton followed the

commemoration. the parade in modern day volgograd is to mark the end of that terrible battle seventy years ago with a parade by troops the laying of wreaths from the various delegations and the assembled crowds here remembering all those people that died there as many as two million the top estimates say there's also a little bit of control to see surrounding the name stalin graft the city is now called volgograd. but the city administration say that they want on certain special days to once again refer to it by its old name stalingrad which is a controversial decision given its connection to that controversial figure stalin himself but as for this parade today this commemorative event it will forever have the connection the word stalingrad not just with this place but with what happened here. seventy years ago the nazi war machine failed at

stalingrad but here a reconstruction of the german surrender and dre is playing the part of friedrich palace promoted the day before to field marshal by hitler in a bid to stop him capitulating. when paula's realized that hitler wanted him to commit suicide he said he wouldn't give him such pleasure and he chose to live. for nazi germany this military disaster was the moment hitler's hubris really caught up with him for the soviet union it was at last a decisive victory over the invaders the ravage so much of the country this basement of stalingrad the largest department store had become palaces last headquarters soviet officers entered to find it packed with wounded starving and freezing german soldiers this is what had become of what had started out as the largest army the world had ever seen. the vermont six army had surged up to the

city in the summer of one nine hundred forty two hitler wanted to clear the way to the oil of the caucasus but stalin grad but first a sideshow became an object of obsession for both him and stalin if you order fought for his very life battling house to house as the germans and their allies took ninety percent of the city but the question that i'm throwing red was how the ball there was a river of fire and when we went to get water from it it was water and blood mixed . in november soviet commander of sprung a huge trap cutting german forces off from their supply lines surrounding them inside the frozen city by the end of january it was all but over the city was a ruin only the few biggest buildings remained standing. she was buddies but you know absolutely far people it was very important because finally we stopped

retreating offices the general started to learn how to win a stunning grant as many as two million people died in the battle their bodies are still being discovered today but although the red army of the soviet people didn't know it yet they had reached a turning point in the bloodiest war in human history tom watson. and the solemn ceremony commemorating the stunning ground victory has wrapped up now with a magnificent fireworks display you can find the photos of the military parade on our website or send there we've got a whole section dedicated to the second world war there you can find stories of the people who witnessed the horrific events of the stalingrad battle as well as learn more about those who led the red army to victory. that's it for me and the news team for the moment i'll be back with morphine thirty five minutes from now in the meantime up to this brief break we take

a look at how tough daily life is for those living in one of the coldest regions on . this short break as i say stay with us this is. reparable fiasco actually caused a fiasco by singing a song highly critical of president obama ironically at a concert in honor of his second inauguration according to the huffington post who was thrown off stage by security for insulting the dear leader the sounds really bad like something out of one nine hundred eighty four were thugs come out of nowhere the second you say something out of line about the party. to the song loop 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 the so i

think security just wanted to silence him in general not silence his anti obama pinions so you know looping next time when you want to bring up obama's drone usage or total disregard for the constitution then keep it under three minutes everything will be just fine but that's just my opinion. the republic of the acute here here lies the event some special nomad camp of how. it is situated four thousand four hundred kilometers from moscow and two thousand kilometers from alaska. yes yes come here. what's wrong with him. we will look we'll take a look but his hoop is also a wall and. yes he can't get much food.
