a clear threat to international peace the security council also strengthen sanctions in response to this missile test back in december and they promised the council members promised to take significant action in the event of this new nuclear test now while there was a unanimous unanimous sentiment within the security council in the midst of this emergency meeting some members like china and russia said that the international community should tread carefully a russian foreign minister sergei sergei lavrov said that no country in the international community should not jump to quick conclusions or actions so i would like to stress that north korea's nuclear test deserves condemnations we hold the will not be used as a pretext to build up a military presence around the korean peninsula we believe that flexing military muscles in the region is extremely dangerous now u.s. president barack obama also warned that both tuesday's tests and earlier satellite

launches are provocations according to the u.s. president and he threatened further swift and credible action against pyongyang u.n. chief on ki-moon also condemned the nuclear test on it deplorable the test was also criticized by many others including britain japan france the e.u. the i need a north korean diplomat john young wrong also told the u.n. disarmament forum in geneva recently that his country quote will never bow down to any reza. lucian and that was in response to criticism that nuclear test violated several u.n. security resolution now pyongyang has also threatened that if the u.s. response to that test with hostility then unspecified quote second and third measures may follow it seems as though if you just based on the patterns that are taking place that north korea is not backing down despite any threat of resolutions or sanctions. marina but neither with the latest on the u.n.
5:04 pm
security council's reaction to north korea's nuclear test and we've got a live timeline to keep you up to date on all the latest reactions and developments on that issue and our team. china was among those who criticize north korea's nuclear test however walk respondent and columnist eric margolis thanks for the relations between the two allies and likely to solve the chinese don't like to be seen as the only nation supporting. north korea not well thought of any were will. be earlier and north korea's important trying to strategically it's. the chinese believe that if north korea and the regime there would implode collapse like you. know the south koreans would move then gobble up north korea and the u.s. would have since its forces moved close to the chinese border joined it does not
5:05 pm
want the china needs of north korea where she go and. so there is my own guess is that the chinese will. denounce the north koreans but will continue quietly supporting them and china is the main source of food for north korea and i don't think the chinese are going to shut off the taps and see us in north korea. iran said it may allow inspectors from the u.n. nuclear watchdog access to a military complex suspected of hosting atomic research all that iran has always denied the punch inside is a nuclear facility the inspectors will arrive in iran for a new round of talks on wednesday in another movie at easing the tension over its nuclear ambitions to run said it's converting enrich uranium into reactor fuel that will slow the buildup of material which could potentially be used to make nuclear
5:06 pm
weapons many mccaskey research a follow fellow in nuclear security at queen mary university in london says talks between iran and america the only solution to the stalemate. if the international society and. inspectors are allowed in this is definitely going to be a very good sign from it on or to the international society because it has to be mentioned that. this would not be the first star and it would go into power to. the words if i'm not mistaken three times and they have not found anything but there are still concerns raised around that has not yet replied to questions posed to them but one thing has to be mentioned in order to understand and done by the regime one has to remember that there is rhetorical. action on. this rhetorical is meant by action by the end of this month or in the near future and it's
5:07 pm
definitely going to be a very good trustable except one thing many analysts a country agree on is that in order to in order to. stop the whole crisis the ringing crisis as there is a need for direct hearing in american talks and this is something that we still are not seeing at all. and while a breakthrough seems unlikely patients in iran need to remain patient their own doctors are sounding the alarm as they say sanctions are result in a severe lack of medicine a report on that just ahead. egypt's opposition is turning more radical as protests become increasingly violent and on a case movement of mass men calling themselves the black a bloc is attracting more supporters is threatening islam's authorities and sparking fears of a possible all out street war. is in cairo and tells us about the group which has given r.t.e.
5:08 pm
exclusive access. this mysterious group appeared around the second anniversary of generosity five evolution when they released this statement saying they would fight the mizzen brotherhood and they would strive for the goals of revolution around about the time we started seeing a young man in black by a car this according themselves said the black bloc and they were heading up the more minutes and sides of the revolution we saw them making want to talk to my facebook pages they were giving instructions for street fighting it taking responsibility for a number of the acts of civil disobedience such as stopping public transport and also have said they were responsible for the burning of muslim brotherhood headquarters of some of them this of course is spot to much criticism from the authorities including the most brotherhood and that the t.v. channels the prosecutor general and twenty ninth of january i said they were a terrorist group on that they would be arrested if they were caught red handed our team managed to secure interviews with this members of the secret organization. the black bloc is an idea that came about as
5:09 pm
a reaction to the negligence of our peaceful demands and also as a reaction against the oppression of the interior ministry which receives orders from the regime we stand against the oppressive and tyrant regime we call upon the interior ministry to deliver justice for those who have been killed and we will continue our demands until they are met our actions are in self-defense we are protecting ourselves but have never attacked anyone we will always be present in egypt even after or demands are met however we will take on a different form the aim behind our presence is to prevent injustice in any form no one listens to our demands and the proof is the number of people who are being killed but of course we had much chance to mock a stepping down of the ouster of hosni mubarak this of course devolved into clashes by the presidential palace much take us was throwing up protest as he responded with molotov the similar protests occurred around the country down south in the suit and now we have reports including egypt's second city in alexandria although.
5:10 pm
focus of the clashes was definitely as is most weeks by the presidential palace an indication that protesters are turning to move violent means to push the regime to fill their demands. under the new egyptian constitution the block is considered of value and outlaw group political activists says there's a reason for the opposition to be so desperate. they stand for a just cause and they're trying to portray themselves as a vigilante but the true anger behind it's the frustration from the lack of social justice the lack of fulfillment of the demands of the revolution so it's a true anger among certain groups of youth but then their frustrations in violence so that this could turn the peacefulness of the egyptian revolution which was which resonated all around the world with a lot of positive connotations the first reactions from the muslim brotherhood is that they will create something called the white law in order to respond to that
5:11 pm
pressure from the black bloc now both of them will be deemed. illegal groups if that happens but i'm not concerned about the violence being organized among different starters of the society however how it's being employed on the street to falsify the collective perception of people through media the situation that egypt is becoming a lawless state and it's becoming a failed state both on the economic level and the security level egyptians by nature are not violent and these are tactics being employed so that egyptians grow desperate all the time with all the crises economic crises and all sorts of protests all around the country so that egypt should have collectively people start thinking that the muslim brotherhood is doing a lousy job which more or less they are doing a lousy job however it's to push people to beg the military council for
5:12 pm
a cool so that they can kick out the muslim brotherhood to justify the military overtake of the government. stella hades when back to work policies aren't working a court rules that the british government's program. we discuss what's wrong with the u.k. swayze topping the problem. the big speech with little space for some crucial issues barack obama prepares to address his nation focusing on the prosperity of the average american and leaving out the more controversial issues the story and much more. is trying to get rid of. but it's also

a treasure. worth fighting. and a trap with no way out. her. good laboratory to mccurdy was to build the world's most sophisticated robot which unfortunately doesn't give a darn about anything mission to teach creation why it should care about humans. this is why you should care only.
5:14 pm
welcome back you're watching our team british government policies to tackle unemployment taking a hammering with a court ruling that a planned forced to labor program was unlawful and it looks like taxpayers will be left to foot the bill for mistakes made by m.p.'s first takes a look at the u.k.'s shaking work first. university graduate kate riley and forty year old jamison wilson succeeded in their claims that their unpaid work that they were made to take part in was indeed a little for them but it was taking place in the court of appeal today and they argue it was that the surrounding issues will legally flawed so they were successful and a small but significant victory now the law is that that ruling say it could mean that thousands of people who have their benefits stripped from the under similar circumstances in this government work program could we claim that money that could
5:15 pm
leave the door open to millions of pounds compensation that would be footed by the taxpayer of course that's causing a lot of concern that the d.w.p. are saying that they are not going to be coughing up any cash whatsoever in our teeth done its own investigation into the work program it's been a hugely controversial program a lot of problems in response to what's the government has said that it was ridiculous to suggest that there were any problems with the work program and that it wasn't helping people get back into work but look this is all being quite embarrassing for the government today now speak to us more about this i'm joined by amery o'reilly for the political work there program thank you very much for joining us a small victory do you think there. are enough because on the surface of it it seems like a big deal and a win the obviously the people involved in that but is this going to be as hard hitting as far reaching well today's ruling is really significant for us it shows
5:16 pm
that workfare forced unpaid work in the u.k. isn't just wrong it's also been unlawful so that means every single person who's been sent on these schemes in the last two years was sent on them unlawfully and the tens of thousands of people who faced really extreme hardship and possible destitution but having their money stopped as a result of not participating may well. be entitled to claim that money back but you're right it doesn't go far enough there's still a lot to be done when of this my significant schemes mandatory where tactility is still intact and really disturbing me the government threatening to bring emergency regulations through to bring workfare straight back in this when just today the schemes are found illegal when they've been riddled with corruption allegations from the start and the government's own research shows that has no effect on helping people find work you know there are millions of people unemployed here in the cave and of course the imperative is getting them back he said work i don't think anyone's the jesting that these people shouldn't be put back to work but i
5:17 pm
think it's the rhetoric that surrounding it and indeed the figures as we said r.t. did their own investigation and the figures just do not add up the percentage of people who are actually getting jobs from this program were incredibly full of but it was worse than doing nothing a tooth so really the figure is quite shocking but you're right this it's their assertion one that i've put conflicts where it's hugely controversial loads of criticism about these government work schemes but they are schemes that are in place and the government is quite right getting people back into jobs are they not unemployment in the u.k. the moment is a huge huge issue but the government nice that these schemes don't work its own research shows they have zero effect on helping people find work possibly worse and doing nothing at all. instead of helping create jobs what they're doing is replacing paid work but handing big business like our tesco pound and hundreds of thousands of hours of unpaid work effectively replacing jobs that would
5:18 pm
exist if the schemes weren't in place not only that the government is using these schemes to massage the unemployment figures because when people are forced to work without pay on the schemes they can't count them as having a job a very strange definition of having a job with not a single person is receiving a wage for them because one graduate who is on that work program certainly a small but significant victory as the lawyer for that case said today it certainly means that the government now has to go back to the drawing board when it comes to their work schemes. the rock obama is preparing for his big primetime speech his first state of the union union address and three lection his main focus will be domestic issues economic recovery gun laws and immigration foreign policy will not be in the spotlight despite controversy over many issues including secretive u.s. drone bombing campaigns john mcgrath the fund of wide awake news alternative current affairs website says the u.s. government plays its own interests ahead of the population's causing your citizens
5:19 pm
to delve deeper into financial trouble had all this promise over the last four years that we were going to revive the middle class and we were going to strengthen it and exactly the opposite has occurred but there's another reason why i believe that they want to get the middle class on board with any future a raising of debt ceilings business is the governed by crisis tactic that we like to use talk about the middle class talk about how we're going to do things for them but it's only going to work if we throw you further and further into i think the suffering middle class is impossible to ignore every time we have a crisis to govern by crisis moment we have the government rushing in with the solution every single time it's more and more debt so i think a lot of people here in the united states are sitting back thinking well i don't have to worry about it because they're just going to increase the debt limit and they're just going to paper over it with a bunch of empty promises or borrowing money from across the world but at some point you know the people of this nation are going to wake up they're going to realize the pain and suffering that all this borrowing and all this propaganda war
