this is r.t. live here in moscow with you twenty four hours a day violent clashes in the caro have killed one person and injured at least fifty rioting opponents of the morsy regime reach the presidential palace for the first time in over a week attacking it with petrol bombs police responded with tear gas and water cannons reported bell true witnessed the mayhem. i personally witnessed a lot of police brutality there's been a criticism of the police in the ministry of interior i'm off the footage was broadcast all the proof of a protester. beaten and trying to cross the tarmac i saw this with my own eyes it could just but i this balcony the man who did not picture any resistance or any threats towards the police caught his trousers by his ankles was dragged face down and then a hit with truncheons before being taken off in

a vehicle and later i also saw police come down an employee of a restaurant just off the front line the man was trying to get home he said before the police officer with but shocked shocked him he fell to the ground a mistake taken by an ambulance this comes off protest is three more talks on the palace yesterday after which the security forces of replying to waive the excessive use of tear gas many people are condemning the police this morning saying this is another example all police because you just see them making the security people just one of the keys i'm onto 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 awesome dialogue with the opposition forces ahmed el baradei one of the leaders of another 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 this in c.v. said preconditions we do see this see this kind of company any time in the future so we expect the violence in the streets the protests across the country in the coming weeks. will for more analysis will be situation in egypt let's talk live now to independent political analyst glazebrook other any key differences between what we're seeing what we saw today. it was toppled well not not really i mean the the main the main difference is that the same the same factors that led to the uprisings of two years ago are still there but actually the differences they've got a lot worse so we're still seeing the issues of police brutality is clearly shown in introduction video there. poverty unemployment inflation all of these things are still still rising and the country still has this picture this picture in

a capitulation is foreign policy so these were the main factors that led to the unrest of two years ago and i'm afraid no that they're they're not improving these things are getting worse and why are we seeing unrest continuing well that unrest that rotten came just a day after opposition leaders signed an agreement to promote peace what why they failed in their efforts. well a few hand shakes in the in some government buildings are not going to change the reality for millions of or desperate people unemployed people poor people like i say the muslim brotherhood morsi regime has made things more difficult for egyptians working class it is interesting the very first act after he claimed emergency powers by himself last november the very first act was to try to cripple the independence of the trade union movement by appointing himself the power to to to appoint their leaders so this really this attack on the working class resistance

has been growing in egypt over the last few years and and morsi is now spearheading the attack on it is really important to realize as well the importance of this trade agreement that was signed between europe jose barroso and morsi last summer this is affectively the culmination of a ten year process nearly of the europe trying to force egypt into signing something like this is effectively trying to create a kind of math or for north africa if you member your viewers will be aware of math or your green between u.s. and mexico and ninety four led to a massive impoverishment of mexican farmers creating an an army of desperate unemployed workers in the in the slums which u.s. companies were able to go in and exploit the cheap labor now europe's trying to do exactly the same thing through this free trade agreement to egypt and. create and the european council on foreign relations a report from twenty eleven very explicit that they want to turn egypt into

a low wage manufacturing zone to help european companies their economic crisis play though down the people there don't want that to happen we're seeing that ag now in the streets do you think protesters could succeed in actually bringing down morsy. well i don't know i mean things are in flux for the moment but i think was the one of the lessons of two years ago that's really important to take on board is that focusing only on a demand for a single individual leader to be removed doesn't necessarily change the underlying problems or the underlying policies so i think i think there's a lesson there that they missed and should should not necessarily be bound with more the end should be and the capitulation of foreign policy should be for economic sovereignty and ending this move towards sacrificing all economic sovereignty to to get a you these should be the kinds of issues. that the we're discussing rather than whether it's this leader or that leader who implements the same policies

independent political analyst thanks very much indeed thank you well you can always check out his twitter feed for the latest on what's going on in cairo bell true his report was already there is also posting her own updates. is the new. russian foreign minister sergey lavrov has met privately with the leader of the key opposition group the syrian national coalition for the first time both agreed there was a mountain to climb before the rebel group would talk to the syrian government about war from the german city of munich where the talks were held. this is the

biggest security conference really in the world and arguably syria is one of the biggest security issues in the world right now sergey lavrov sundown for a meet seeing more as our who's the leader of the syrian national coalition the foreign minister of russia coming away seemingly quite happy for the meeting he said upon his arrival back in moscow that swell. the syrian national coalition seemed willing to speak with the current syrian government citing the fact that the whole reason that the national coalition exists in the first place is because they had previously refused to talk to president assad however sergey lavrov did err on the side of caution saying that there was no guarantees that this dialogue would take place bringing up the point that the coalition is so fragmented he could hardly really agree with themselves never mind sit down to open the gates the

ations with the current syrian government syria featured very highly in the address that was given by sigil of rove to the the security conference he also told directly to russia's western partners as sin called for unity and trying to bring an end to the violence and bring discussion to the forefront rather than talk of international intervention he did however raise a few questions towards russia's western partners suggesting that was it worth while pursuing their mantra of regime change in countries like syria at the expense of terrorist acts being cast a blind eye to as those acts take place against the civilian population and the the syrian army we also saw around two thousand people gather elsewhere in munich in protest against what they say is they just continuing growth across europe that was relatively peaceful but it was also a topic that had been touched on by surrogate lover of in his address where he said

that there was no real need. in a so to expand in the way that it was in those two thousand or so people in the city also voicing the similar opinion. reports of extra judicial killings by the modern army of escalated all the way to the un the blocks and the genocide envoy says he's deeply concerned the claims by activists that the army which is knowledge lead backed by french troops is committing ethnic reprisal attacks and other atrocities when it comes as force on hand is on a visit to the north african country where his forces are fighting islamic radicals while they're the french president announce the mission won't be long and will wrap up in several weeks after which paris will weep the rewards according to you for those maji from the council for the development of social science research in africa. what this intervention does is strengthen the arm of a group of junior officers who took control of the state and who are just simply.

i mean the reports we get from mali from bamako is holies troops just simply control everything and not interested in any kind of development they're only interested in acquiring wealth for themselves they go in they rob banks complete impunity they control the economy now with complete impunity they are now the sort of. i guess you know the servants now. of the french and the u.s. but their real agenda has been to sell off the leak to to the french or to the corporations mollies a place with enormous. of all wealth you're a new book site gold and so on and there's no doubt that french canadian and up interest are clearly interested in occupying that territory. britain is removing the welcome sign from its doors as the government for it is the flow of migrants into the country much skyrocket stories think that promoting the u.k.

is a great distillation may have got a bit too full of his 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 remaining i'm from ball garia the message is that britain isn't so great after all so a lot of people see that sort of as quite farcical 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 that 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 and for all gary. there's 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. signs of living romania p.r. campaign beautiful women the like kate middleton and cheap booze appear in the list of the main advantages of living that we've got a collection of the posters all built called. hatred and racism in the israel football league takes a look at the jerusalem to make these extreme right. extremely angry. plus a red faced pentagon is left to explain how it ring in fuel and power in the us war machines conflicts. of america against the islamic state. wealthy british style.

market. what's really happening to the global economy. global financial headlines kaiser reports. more news today. these are the images and seeing from the streets of canada. giant corporations are the day.

technology innovation all the developments around russia we. have heard. the news continues here on r.t. america's forces in afghanistan may have been running on iranian oil in a clear violation of washington's own fuel embargo against the islamic state the pentagon has meant that it can't vouch for the source of years worth of fuel due to a complicated supply system or he's going to come picks up the story. the u.s. gives money to the afghan government to buy fuel for its forces now u.s. officials the special inspector 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 most probably did

for the wrong and it could mean that the u.s. has violated its own extinction by letting us taxpayer dollars go to even 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 it rains oil exports in two thousand and twelve leading to a very deep plunge in the arabian currency but continuous 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 qataris so you could 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 to many countries the situation starts to look more like blackmail than anything else. the sanctions violations and rhetoric surrounding iran are all proving great creative fuel for our website cartoonists are other things or at r.t. dot com in the online exclusive section

a jerusalem football team whose fans are known for chanting racist anti arab slogans has signed to muslims for the first time supporters are openly disappointed at the move which some say is like welcoming in the enemy or reportedly 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 fan pressure they taught as a bastion of israel's political white if i am none other then the don't love that the enemy will be a player in my team or you could see. that. 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 has just finished and as you see the bay tajiri some supporters are walking out behind me but it will be another 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 arabs work has orders are born they try 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 fact 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 am an arab muslim if this is not rhys's what is it that problem is about to get a whole lot bigger team owner of russian israeli tycoon at a coyote guide imac recently announced his decision to hire two muslim players from chechnya. it's not good they're doing it for nothing these players from chechnya aren't with the jewish people they're not with the team we have different values while other countries have faced international sanctions for racist incitement by fans 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 and forcefully cleared a palestinian activist encampment there arresting seven palestinians and one settler the site was set up to protest against the expression of israeli

settlements into the area the army fahd tear gas and stun grenades to disperse the protesters but also reportedly remove journalists from the site. the spotify minister has been forced to deny he received more than two hundred fifty thousand euros worth of secret payments over a ten year period speaking in front of his conservative party marianne over hoy's 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 hidden donations there was the bloodiest battle in human history in a turning point in world war two seventy years ago the soviet union snatch victory in starting grad defeating the nazi war machine tom barton followed the commemoration. the parade here the grad 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 graph 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 with this place but with what happened to him. 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

powerless promoted the day before to field marshal by hitler in a bid to stop him capitulating. when paul is realized that hitler wanted him to commit suicide he said he wouldn't give him such pleasure and he chose to live with the 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 ravitch 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 re were firing 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. fears budgets by the unions for whom harbor far people it was very important because finally we stopped retreating offices the general started to learn how to win a stanley grant as many as two million people died in the battle their bodies 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 r.t. the solemn ceremony commemorating the stalingrad victory has wrapped up with a magnificent fallen display and you can find the photos of the military parade on our website at the moment and also there we've got a whole section dedicated to the second world war they 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. well that's it for me the news team for the moment will be back with more in just a hole for now from now in the meantime coming up in just a few minutes it is the latest is a report stay with us for that this is in most. represent

the 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 he was thrown off stage by security for insulting the dear leader the sounds really bad like something out of one thousand nine hundred four were thugs come out of nowhere the second you say something out of line about the party. to the song loop it was sunny 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 opinions so you know looping next.
