first the embargo that is in place at the moment will be no longer in place of course the issue of sending arms to syria has long been a great matter of discussion between all parties involved in the conference on the peace process in syria and the two states that have been worried the most about it of course are russia and the united states the issue remains that a lot of groups operating in syria on the side of the rebels are also thoroughly to do with al qaida and that is something that neither mosco nor washington can let go off there saying that it is arms are indeed going to be shipped to syria it means those arms could end up in hands of known terror organization but that doesn't seem to faze longdon or paris unfortunately it also happens to be the day when. russia's foreign minister sergei lavrov as well as the secretary of state john kerry mad's in paris to discuss. the implementation of the peace process in the geneva

welcome back you're watching r n c egypt's a top court wants to allow members of the country's armed forces to vote many have praised the decision but the ruling muslim brotherhood and others oppose it saying it's threatens a national security and as our taste on boston explains at these are signs that egypt is still facing many of the same problems it had under the rule of also present. members of egypt's army and police haven't voted since one nine hundred seventy six a move designed to stop them interfering in politics but now judges have said that rule and twelve other pieces of electoral law are in breach of the country's new constitution much contested but passed last december human rights groups and some of the largely secular opposition have welcomed the decision as they say all citizens should have the right to vote but some islamists and former soldiers are opposed saying politics should be kept out of the army and raising fears of politicians abusing a huge voting reservoir this all comes as egypt tries to adjust after decades under

mubarak's control his regime was infamous for torture since his departure human rights reform of the security services has been limited now or president mohamed morsi is muslim brotherhood faces widespread accusations of moving into positions vacated by mubarak's old cronies largely because of political unrest egypt's economy is now doing worse than it did under mubarak and mubarak's foreign policy imperatives seem to remain important to the current government to the dismay of some islamists egypt has also been the scene of constand government directly as a with violent protest over the rule of president morsi and the muslim brotherhood organization the latest event took place on friday with a call for early presidential elections while eskandar who's written for many egyptian news outlets thinks that the country faces severe economic and social problems because the ruling elite is only concerned with men taney power. the great

danger right now is that no reforms are done the greatest danger for egypt is the collapse of the economy and you know the the people revolting and the government not being able to sustain the rule the society needs to be based on justice in whatever form it takes where the resources are given to those who need it rather than the elite we have we have a horrible social security unit if you don't want political unrest you have to feed people you have to give them shelter you have to solve their problems. this is not been the case for for the muslim brotherhood they are just sort of defying their rule and they're not sharing power with anyone if they focused more about solving the problems collectively in egypt together with all the parties involved they would have a bigger chance but at the moment they're just trying to monopolize power. so what we need to do really is just focus on the real problems and get everyone

together to work on them whether they're economic or political. the security situation has been deteriorating in egypt with the country now seeing some of the worst cases of vigilante justice this is a two thousand and eleven uprising officials have been encouraging citizens to arrest lawbreakers and hand them over to authorities but angry mobs have increasingly become the judge and jury on the streets r.t.l. to exam is a brutal trend. unbury crowd viciously drug a young man through a street sets his corpse on fire and strings it are video clips like these have become boringly frequent in brule egypt since the revolution two years ago citizens increasingly take justice into their own hands arms son mistah for thirty one year old civil servant from the nile delta is one such victim he was brutally murdered and hung from a tree in broad daylight. the crowd thought that he was

a thief because he's mentally ill the first blow came from behind on the back of his head and then part of his skull was hacked off the second here it was to his chest and they caught him open arms sabriye story is not unique since the two thousand and eleven revolution have been at least seventeen similar lynchings in this region alone the most high profile victim who was killed last week was the son of a leading member of the missing brotherhood's political party security forces for their part say they are able to control the situation particularly when entire villages are involved in these vigilante mobs rights advocates like karim and nora say they lynchings which are on the rise are symptomatic of the state's continued failure to provide security and justice these increasing cases of lynchings and communal violence are people taking just isn't on hand but always a very visible sign of just increasing lack of face into. his level face

into the criminal justice system and obviously people in egypt have always had a negative inviting relationship with the police and not very good relationship with as they should be but that has even become worse after the revolution officials from the ruling freedom and justice party and the police admit that the authorities are reluctant to confront suspected mob killers for fear of backlash however local party leader ahmed shah hearts who personally knew one of the victims main. security is improving post revolution egypt has experienced one of the best revolutions in history the country's being healed very quickly we're almost in a stable situation there will be security we have a plan for the economy and security of egypt this is little consolation for the families of victims like three who have seen no justice. the local security chief said just give me one arrest in twenty four hours now was to offer

is a concern but it's very a part of the problems in southern europe you also have the cost and price competitiveness of this countries you have the question of the mix of what you produce what you can export but certainly. skill mismatch is still so rightly pointed out thank you very much for that well if you just look at the industrial production numbers right now in the e.u. with still more than that via ten percent below its pre-crisis high in two thousand and eight but again europe's competitiveness comes to the forefront even more as leaders are still struggling to find a sustainable growth a process out of this economic crisis that are in reporting from brussels and tess are cilia. now to some other news making headlines around the world more than sixty people were killed a hundred and sixty injured in a wave of car bombs in baghdad on monday the attacks targeted shiite districts of the iraqi capital while another blast struck in the heart of the city close to the

a plane it's a jazz band hijacking. a u.s. senate committee has passed a bill that if signed by obama will love the u.s. to put a lot of weapons into the hands of syrian rebels this seems rather odd because many of the factions that are revolting seem like bad people to be arming in fact one rebel faction al nasra which according to the guardian is an islamist organization with links to al qaeda is quickly becoming the most powerful rebel faction of all of them the b.b.c. even declared that al nasra has been designated as a terrorist organization by the us government itself has it started something like a bad idea to ship weapons into syria on american taxpayers' dollars yet let's just

pretend that somehow all these weapons will magically not fall into the hands of al nasra well the free syrian army isn't much better they seem perfectly happy to use rape and beheadings and genocide against christian l. white minorities with great glee to get what they want arming radical groups always has blowback if you remember back to just the one nine hundred eighty s. the u.s. funded and armed the tele band and those mujahideen fighter guys and look how that turned out the u.s. government seems way too eager to arm radical foreigners and disarm average americans when they should be doing the exact opposite but that's just my opinion.
