i mean they are. us. no farewell to arms with the e.u. over just days remain before rebel forces in syria can legally get weapons from you write a. russian considers a clampdown an extreme is a preacher's an expanded powers for the security services summit growing criticism of m i five failure to prevent the brutal killing of a soldier. and egypt two years this is the uprising street violence spirals with officials encouraging citizens juárez criminals resulting in brutal vigilante justice.

if you've just tuned in never one welcome to you live here with us on our t.v. from a mosque or with me to say let's take a look at the news at this hour the e.u. has agreed to an end to the syrian. the u.k. and france and let the effort in which has now opened the door to lethal aid flowing into the hands of the syrian rebels however some states oppose the move say you would only feel the conflict this as russia as a foreign minister sergey lavrov and u.s. secretary of state john kerry met in paris to organize syrian peace talks are going to school has the details. you can say that it was the 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 the 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 with the hague already

said the lifting of the arms embargo is the only way to end the crisis which has been ripping syria apart for more than two years that this point having said 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 in the czech republic belief that allowing weapons shipments to syria to the syrian rebels will only intensify the bloodshed in the country of course russia has been opposed to this idea all along just really concerned about where exactly those arms going to end up then are they actually going to be in the arms of this so-called 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 who are known to operate in syria ironically well while the e.u. foreign ministers were meeting in brussels the 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 also mosco and washington directing most of

their efforts to bring together all sides of the syrian conflict to the table there was the first time that u.s. secretary of state has repeated a phrase that has been used by russia all along and that is that it's up to the syrians themselves to solve the syrian crisis they have 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 place sometime next month most go also. wants to see so-called third parties participating in the peace talks and by the third parties they're 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 this syrian it crisis of course even though their peace

conference efforts are continuing we have to understand that. lifting up the ban on arms embargo 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. moscow says it's a by the e.u. decision to end the embargo on arms deliveries to syria foreign ministry said it's an example of double standards and calls a direct damage to the prospect of an international conference on syria let's get more on this a from political analysts that xander sullivan said live on of who's joining us live now mr sullivan of all what what what does this message mean the decision to send peace talks in geneva. well i believe it's the geneva talks about it gold's boys the european union says the decision to ban the involved only shows that the e.u.

believes in the military solution of the conflict and is not small to believe in the peace talks while the ministry of foreign affairs on its head mr lavrov mr kerry agreed in paris on the need to have another conference peace conference with more stakeholders from the regions involved and so it's actually a deplorable decision again stating that you does not believe in the peaceful resolution of the syrian conflict would risk the u.k. and france are running deciding to arm the rebels. well actually first of all it's important to say that we need to remember the libyan conflict and speaking about france and you can we should remember that they were involved in the conflict with the military i mean now the libyan conflict and it's no surprise that again we see these two countries. proposing to

sell weapons to the rebels and the danger of it is that you can also actually identify the is so-called legitimate rebels for all the terrorists and does the this decision they set the whole region on fire we already know that this is across conflicts and it is now flowing into all the adjacent border a country. so the. responsibility that france and you can now say king i think it's very it's very serious and they need to understand that when the break now and france are speaking on behalf of the whole european union they need to understand that the blame well then fall on the whole hands at sea and so now it's really important to understand what the position is and how many countries of the european union out of twenty seven are really supportive of the decision. you know i guess the one is also being having the lessons of from at that

does that. mean all of them will have gene into afghanistan and al qaida been learned. while we know that history teaches the only thing that it teaches no one nothing and we know that due to the arming of the mulga has enough get to stand the united states. and several decades ago would bring to life this some of bin laden and all those horrible terror acts that the world has been witnessing for decades after it and sold the. their real danger of this decision is of ending the on bargo is that again the world may face and also face in all this stage all the terror threats and now the center of it will be in syria and in the middle eastern region and this we know vast the consequences are actually long lasting and the world is going to suffer a lot from these

a decision and so what is really needed and mr lavrov insisted that another peace conference with small stakeholders being held soon to actually take more legitimate decisions that will be agreed on by all the stakeholders and has said that the u.k. says that it does believe that i mean the syrian rebels there is actually will save lives so how does. adding more guns and saving lives. given that it will action in its own sensical decision because yeah absolutely contradictory because we understand that if you just well like i said if you believe in the military resolution of the conflict that means that more arms and more of force will only bring more violence to the region and we know that the death toll is now nearing one hundred thousand people in the region so how many more people need to die before the world really understands that only peace talks.

can bring a noun to these violence and arming rebels i think it's one of the biggest mistakes because like i said you cannot tell the a legitimate rebels the citizens fighting for their freedom from the terrorists that are actually. they are interested on me in bringing more habit to the region and they are they would all they have no nationality they only have interests and money in violence and in continuing to sponsor spreading throughout the region so that's a really nonsensical decision in my view but wouldn't that be now that the this embargo has been lifted wouldn't that help i guess propel the rebels to actually come to the table to these peace talks is it not going to put more pressure now that they will have these weapons. well actually i don't see that it's weapons and ate the stole us actually what can really

a be stoltz is the rallying of the arrivals at around. some really strong leaders that would make the opposition in syria visible and that would allow the global community to. to pull them out of the table of negotiation i mean the some visible outstanding a leaders of the syrian opposition and rebels in that case. rather than army syrian rebels the global community and the european union that is now carry huge responsibility really needs to identify those leaders and look forward and inspire aspire to actually having another peace conference as soon as possible while in syria we definitely definitely heard to your point of view and we thank you for that and malice is on this ongoing story that we're keeping our viewers a very strong thank you very much mr alexander sell enough political analyst be

speaking with us right as we've just heard there are concerns have been voiced across the europe over the lifting of the bad now they say the arms could easily reach extremist groups fighting in the ranks of the opposition forces allegations of torture and human rights abuses at the hands of the rebels the situation could now did to rate even further now on supply could hamper any peace initiative and there also fears that more weapons would only feel the conflict in syria but despite the lifting of this ban antiwar activist richard becker says the arms embargo never stop the western supporters of the opposition. the arms embargo was a bit of fiction anyway they aren't supporting 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 if an autocratic push for it as a post peace conference approaches i'm opposed to a civil level and the 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 until you can be defeated he's cleared at the leading nato powers the us britain and france leading the way and then 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 the concern for some of the for human rights and democracy in syria and qatar united arab emirates saudi arabia jordan these are all family monarch and they are united in their objective

of your objective is to bring down a government in syria to replace it with what would be a reasonable to u.s. interests as a strategy of domination of the middle east. more reactions coming out of moscow now russia's deputy foreign minister said again and i'd be cough meanwhile says that russia is the shipments of s. three hundred empty missiles to the syrian government as a stabilizing factor to prevent a foreign involvement in the ongoing conflict. writers still in syria and other journalists are losers in life reporting on the conflict a prominent syrian a war correspondent is killed by rebel sniper fire 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 was 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 the battery of measures to track down terrorists a new task force has been set up to focus on radical preachers or the home secretary is demanding extra powers for law enforcement agencies therefore it is a vocal is on islamic extremism has been raising many questions that revelations that m i five had enough information about the suspects to prevent the attack pile up or to spoil you boyko reports. the first time the home secretary theresa may proposed the data and communications bill 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 the current secretary to resign may says it's essential that police are granted the powers to access data communications in order to tackle terrorism

that means being able to view citizens skype histories web browsing and e-mail 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 large 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. seen 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 far as two thousand and three mm of the time the alleged attacker was a member of an extremist islamic group that was being wanted to buy security services and later banned 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 bugged 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 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 oversaw 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 what's going on even the inquiry 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 could assure you of saying we need more money we need more power and we need more surveillance of the general population because they had all the laws they needed to stop these people doing what they did last wednesday you don't need any more power whatsoever plenty muzzles who come here on our d. including of the mill you stay we examine the political infighting and lynch mobs taking the law into their own heads in egypt where little has changed since the uprising two years ago. a trip to the bike in new cars would drain all final preparations before the next mission to the international space station blast love is tonight that's after the break.

citizens increasingly take justice into their own hands arms stubbornly 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 bitter lanty 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 lynching 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 if they should leave it 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 breach of this is little consolation for the families of victims like sabri who have seen no justice. the local security chief said just give me one and i will arrest him in twenty four hours now was to offer has been dead for fifty days and security director has done nothing. against the backdrop of escalating civil unrest off the revolution many fear this violence is here to stay and that the worst could be yet to come true for our team showcase. most stories on our website twenty four seven including a un head of says the one time will be a prison breeds all kinds of content now human rights achieve all those on record saying that intention is sent as an ideal recruitment tool for terrorists this as the hunger strike of the enters its one hundred eleventh day had to r.t. dot com for more info. but you can also go to our youtube channel to see more of

this incredible footage of construction. all of it on our you tube channel. where financial troubles are dragging on in europe it's industries are struggling to prop up their production which is still over ten percent below the two thousand and eight pre-crisis level and finding enough skilled engineers in the e.u. is appearing one of the main problems for companies despite soaring unemployment now and he says also look at what's happening to european manufacturers. manufacturers and industrialists have been voicing their concerns sounding 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 war as the economic crisis continues and then we get 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 contrast like in 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. here in europe. where i think it's it has soul to do with the current crisis is the fact that. the industry in europe is receding but it is a long term trend in terms of losing market shares in many countries so just to confirm that the almost twenty seven million i thought 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 the skill mismatch as we can call it is a concern but it's only of very a part of the of the problems in southern europe you also have the the cost and price competitiveness of of those 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 the mike and. the final preparation of the next mission as they get ready for a blast of a not that far off from the russian soyuz of blasting a traditional three man crew up to the i assess it to be led by the russian commander a few of the your chief can back it up by the american astronaut karen nyberg a second time to the i assess but new look up in the european space agency is first

time to the orbiting space lab but he's got at least two spacewalks to do one to try and repair a camera on japan's keep but also to try and repair the r.s.s. for the hopeful soon arrival of russians and the multi-purpose laboratory module as well now our karen nyberg the american astronaut her second time to the i assess to spend six months or so away from her husband and a little three year old boy as well but not to worry they'll be having what they call daily internet protocol phone calls as you can chat with family and once we do a live video conference call as well so the blast off is twenty thirty g.m.t. on tuesday that will actually be a two thirty am launch on the wednesday from baikonur with a dark sky the late night launch it should be a good backdrop for such a launch indeed and only for orbits after launch for orbits around planet earth than a six hour flight to the i assess to meet the remaining three members of expedition thirty six that have been on the i assess for quite some time at a height of three hundred twenty kilometers above our heads

a speed of nearly twenty eight thousand kilometers per hour it's going to be a wild ride an incredible view as well to join us here on r.t. the live broadcast with the rule re sushi at twenty thirty g.m.t. on tuesday reporting here from baikonur kazakhstan hope to see you. well haven't been to by canoe myself i can tell you there is nothing more exciting than a rocket launch the tune in tonight for that live coverage well coming up now on r.t. . a u.s. senate committee has passed a bill that if signed by obama will allow 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 u.s. 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 alawite 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 taliban and those mujahedeen 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.
