no farewell to arms of the e.u. list the syrian weapons and blogger with the u.k. and france are winning the battle to allow the supply of lethal aid to the rebels this is russia and the us try to map out a road to peace in syria. britain considers a clampdown on extremist preachers and expanded powers for the security services i mean a growing criticism of the my files failure to prevent the brutal killing of a soldier. and egypt's a top constitutional portal says of the country's military and police a should be allowed to vote triggering a backlash of from the ruling islamist party concerned with national security.

international news analysis and reports this is r.t. with me tom with thing first they view has agreed to lift the syrian arms in bangor the u.k. and france the lead to the effort which has now opened the door to lethal aid flowing into the hands of the syrian rebels however some states oppose the move are saying it would only fuel the conflict this is russia's foreign minister sergey lavrov and u.s. secretary of state john kerry met in paris to organize syrian peace talks right live now to our teams in reno who is in a paris it may not take us through the developments all over the e.u. ben being lifted. well of course you can say that it was a win for france and the u.k. have been pushing for a lifting of the arms embargo on syria all along you have to know that at the same

time all other sanctions particularly the economic ones remain in place and that means that every individual european state will have to decide whether or not they want to proceed with this shipment of arms to syria and whether or not they want to do it at all i would have a hague over it he said that it's they only way that the u.k. sees that they are the lifting of the arms embargo is the only way that he believes good is the possibility to lift to end the crisis which has been ripping syria apart for more than two years at this point has that we have to remember that even the most of the e.u. countries there's a strong disagreement on whether or not it is actually a good idea to lift the arms embargo of countries like sweden netherlands and the czech republic believe that allowing weapons shipments to syria to the syrian rebels will only intensify the bloodshed in the country ironically well while the e.u. foreign ministers were meeting in brussels russia russian foreign minister as well as the u.s. secretary of state were meeting here in paris and their efforts were directed at

a peaceful resolution of the conflict and also ironically it was the arms embargo the issue of lifting the arms embargo and bargo in syria that was one of the most heated topics of discussion and of course russia has been opposed to this idea all along. moscow and washington are both extremely concerned about where exactly those arms going to end up in are they actually going to be in the arms of the so-called the moderate opposition or will those weapons end up in the hands of some of the rebel groups who are being supported by al qaida terrorists were known to operate in syria that of course remains up for discussion also moscow and washington of directing most of their efforts to bring together all sides from the old sides of the syrian conflict to the table that was the first time that the u.s. secretary of state has repeated a phrase that has been used by. all along and that is that it's it is up to syrians themselves to solve the syrian crisis they how it does seem like john kerry and sergey lavrov have agreed that they will exert pressure on different sides of the

conflict that is moscow will work with the syrian government whereas the u.s. will try and make sure that the syrian opposition also attends the geneva peace conference which is due to take part to take place sometime next month mosco also wants to see so-called third parties participating in the peace talks and by the third parties they were talking about countries like qatar and iran who are not directly involved in any sort of diplomatic resolution of the crossing but are strongly expressing their side in in this syrian crisis of course even though the peace conference efforts are continuing. headed by russia by russia and the united states we have to understand that this listing off the ban on arms to. go to syria is opening an entirely new. phase in the syrian conflict it could be spelling out a potential disaster which will only intensify further bloodshed in syria. we were

going to be reporting from paris on the syrian peace the conference we'll have more updates with you as we follow this story closely. by the u.k. agency oxfam has want of devastating consequences save more fenton to syria but however believes arming the rebels would complement rather than work against the peace process claiming it would strengthen the opposition hand in negotiations with the fund and to war activists richard bacco says the arms embargo never stopped western supporters of the opposition the arms embargo was a bit of fiction anyway they arms are pouring into the opposition in syria but for coming from qatar and saudi arabia there are undoubtedly be organized by the united states and the other nato powers where they really mean is that they want to send heavier weapons and because the opposition has suffered serious side effects

recently and so we see an all out push for as i don't propose peace conference approaches on both a civil level and a military level to try to strengthen the opposition which is dependent upon the support it's receiving from outside otherwise it does not have any hope for victory in turkey today that the leading nato powers the u.s. britain and france leading the way and that their allies are client states in the middle east have all joined in this effort and what is really remarkable about it is that we have decided to try and so a concern for some of the for human rights and democracy in syria and qatar united arab emirates saudi arabia jordan these are all family monarchies they are united in their objective of your objective is to bring down the government in syria to replace it with what it would be amenable to u.s. interests as tired of

a strategy of domination of the middle east. meanwhile one of the strongest u.s. advocates of the syrian opposition senator john mccain has made a surprise visit to syria for talks with rebel leaders so as a pope who are already an independent researcher and reuters says washington is not entirely sincere when he calls for peace talks. all these education is against us started in two thousand and three at least what's known to us openly and there was if lived an article written in the time magazine in december of two thousand and six which mentioned there had been secret meetings going on and they cited some secret documents in which it was stated that the opposition was being nurtured in europe with the american support so this much we know at the same time we know that john mccain senator mccain is old hugh went to syria to meet with the free syria liberation army was he really liked more than the opposition so america is involved

in all this i don't believe america wants a peaceful resolution to the conflict america started it i don't think that senator mccain would take it upon himself to go to syria and research with the opposition having had he not had a nod from the government otherwise he would be locked up the minute he returned. and another journalist loses their life reporting on the conflict a prominent syrian war correspondent is killed by a rebel sniper fire the details online for you at r.t. dot com. and the conflict in syria threatens to go beyond its borders with three lebanese soldiers killed by syrian rebels as fears grow of an all out sectarian war in the region. in the wake of the brutal slaying of a u.k. soldier the british government's responding with

a battery of measures to track down terrorists a new task force has been set up to focus on radical preachers while the home secretary is demanding extra powers follow enforcement agencies there's already its focus on islamic extremism has been raising many questions as revelations that m i five for had enough information about the suspects to prevent the attack pileup i just want a boy to report. the first time the home secretary to reason may propose the data and communications bill it came under so much criticism from civil liberties groups and even the deputy prime minister that the government had to scrap plans for its implementation but after the killing of an off duty soldier in south london last wednesday it looks like the so-called snoopers charter is back in the spotlight paying secretary theresa may says it's essential that police are granted the powers access data communications in order to tackle terrorism that means being able to

view citizens skype histories web browsing and email histories whether or not such a law would have prevented the killing of lee rigby is up for debate both suspects were already known to intelligence agencies for their extremist views but would both deemed safe enough to continue their activities one of the suspects michael audible larger reportedly handed out extremist literature on the streets of london and was even arrested in kenya back in two thousand and ten for trying to travel to somalia in order to train as a terrorist at the same time the home secretary to reason may says that police needs to be given the tools they need in order to fight terrorism but considering that british intelligence had all that information about the willage suspects already many here are questioning why the home office didn't just use the tools they were he had. the london reports say one of the suspects in the brutal machete killing was considered

a low risk by m i five despite numerous warning signs dating back as was two thousand and three at the time the alleged attacker was a member of an extremist islamic group that was being monitored by security services and lee to bend investigative journalist tony gosling says more paul and money to monitor the population is not the solution. how did these guys who were right at the very top of the terror watch list their x l maturing people how on earth did they not get spotted preparing for some kind of terror act or what was the car bug for example this is one question that hasn't been answered m i five are gone very quiet on all these kinds of topics they've got something like four thousand staff m i five and if they can't keep an eye on the people who are very top of the watch list then there needs to be a real shake up and heads need to roll there the over so it of the security services really needs to be looked at there isn't any proper oversight and what these intelligence services seem to do every time is to hide behind the veil of

national security we can't tell you quietly that's been instituted into the failures of what happened last wednesday is going to be kept entirely secret and i'm afraid it's time for them to come out from under their shells and get a proper looking at so that this kind of thing really can't happen again and they're not going to play this game sure you of saying we need more money we need more power and we need more surveillance of the general population because they all the laws they needed to stop these people doing what they did last wednesday you don't need any more power whatsoever. come to mo still to come here on r.g.p. including a familiar stay we examine egypt before and all the revolution highlighted by political infighting and lynch mobs taking the role into their own hands. lott said trip to the bike a new cosmodrome full final preparation before the next mission to the international space station last solved to not.

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 a 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 it would also be in the sea you know constant anti-government rallies with violent protests over the rule of president morsi and the muslim brotherhood organization the latest event took place on friday with calls for early presidential elections

while eskandar his vision for many egyptians news outlets think the country faces severe economic and social problems because the ruling elite is not only concerned with maintaining 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 net 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 there they are just sort of defying their rule and they're not. sharing power with anyone if they focus 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 since the twenty eleven uprising officials have been encouraging citizens to arrest law breakers and have them over to authorities but angry mobs have increasingly become the judge and jury on the streets of them is a brutal trend. uncrate crowd viciously drugs a young man through a street sets his corpse on fire and strings that are video clips like these have become boringly frequent in brule egypt since the revolution two years ago as citizens increasingly take justice into their own hands arms upper east sun mistah

communal violence in people taking justice and. but always a very visible sign of just increasing lack of face into. face into the criminal justice system and obviously people in egypt have always had a negative inviting relationship with the police and. good relationship with their station even 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 more killings fear of backlash however local party leader ahmed shah hearts who personally knew one of the victims maintain 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 and reject this is little consolation for the

alarm over what they say is a locker shortage of skilled talent here in europe now this does add another layer to the story of employment or lack thereof here in the bois as the economic crisis continues and then in an interview would be a financial times the c.e.o. of siemens europe's largest engineering group had said of this problem is particularly acute in countries like germany and in turn this affects their competitiveness which forces them to move substantial parts of their research and development to countries like china and india and all of this is being said as the block is facing record unemployment or we spoke with a research fellow from the eggman institute to give us a bit more insight into what is happening here in europe. has sold to do with the current crisis is the fact that. the industry in europe is receding that is the long term trend in terms of losing market shares in many countries so just to confirm that the almost twenty seven million if i'm not mistaken unemployed in europe it's still hard to find at least five hundred thousand engineers that

they're saying now and i think that the meat skill mismatch as we can call it is a concern but it's only of a very a part of the of the problems in southern europe you also have the the custom price competitiveness of this countries you have the question of the mix of what you produce what you can export but certainly yes. skill mismatches and so rightly pointed out thank you very much for that well if you just look at the industrial production numbers are 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 still you. now to some other news making headlines around the world more than six this is the way it killed in the home and sixty injured in a wave of car bombs in baghdad on monday the attacks targeted shy districts of the
