to protest the show the door to the prime minister over the ongoing crackdown by police who have unleashed up a spray and bostons on unarmed civilians. so this is have resumed on moscow's metro after a short circuit and a blaze paralyzed traffic in the congress. and left at least sixty six people injured. and staying before your tweets especially if you're in britain where police are throwing people behind bars for crossing the line without social media pods.

and you saw russia and around the while this is all see was made you probably all of a thanks for joining it. turkish protesters are ramping up calls for the resignation of prime minister after one over a brutal police crackdown on demonstrations that's left thousands injured the ones deputy has said sorry for their initial excessive use of force but people want a pass not apology from the premier himself police unleashed more gas and water cannons on das traitors and they stumble over night and amber homes were reportedly raided by offices dozens of new york arrests have been made and some x. rays were even taken in for inciting process some twitter at a while out of the country on a working visit as the dust traitors as extremists and fond of one of the local media has also rans public fury by turning a blind eye to the unrest as a rino going to. the revolution will not be televised that is according to graffiti

spray painted all over istanbul and indeed the protests have gone largely unnoticed by the state media here in turkey however people did have the last word by destroying the satellite trucks of local state media channels if not to prove a point then at least to vent out their anger and frustration at the media that did not cover the events at home pepper spray water cannons tear gas only hell was breaking loose in taksim with police trying to evict environmentalists and their supporters to give the park last weekend but when turkish audiences flipped on their t.v.'s they saw something entirely different. from c.n.n. international protectors you get the police to people and then you take c.n.n. turk there was a humanitarian. it's a complement. participants of the protests though disapproving of the lack of coverage by the turkish media nevertheless believe news outlets have good reason

he is killing militants and he has not killed any civilian then he has to give the names and details of all those militants who he has killed because for his money i would be happy you know assumes that if you have killed all those people who are creating all this in my cities if you have killed all these people who were here let you go probably for your well listen a floor but at least i will be happy that you are making me see what the question here is that who are you killing. and you can watch us untie conversation by tuning to r.t. at eighteen forty five g.m.t. last he will be granted entry into the euro when next january it becomes the eighteenth stage that he uses the single currency but is also his case appealed the reports many have doubts whether the baltic country will actually gain more from the union and it could potentially. there will be officially swapping
