broadcasting live from our studios in moscow this is thomas glad to have you with us now turkish police have used to tear gas and water cannons to force crowds out of protesters excuse me out of taksim square people assembled in the streets leading to the square and it began setting up barricades meanwhile demonstrators have started to gather in other turkish cities including ancora this comes shortly after the turkish prime minister issued yet another warning to protesters saying security forces will intervene if they do not clear taksim square by sunday which is the reports from the turkish capital. at this point we can talk about the texas government being completely cleared of protests and i think it by the way you can see it now we have some ambulance vehicles there and if you will if you can put look at the corner in the corner of your screen you probably see people that are just smelling everything in tax him in the gezi park and this is that basically

what is happening here right now is that police have actually entered a gezi park for the first time in two weeks and they are taking apart all the tents and all the barricades that people have built there now we also know that neither media nor medical personnel are actually allowed at this point in the park itself at all of this comes just an hour after prime minister wants it again said that this protest will not be tolerated and that's all the tests will have to be gone by sunday you have to understand that there are hundreds of tents that were in there people were literally living there for weeks and of course now a lot of people that have left texas where or rather pushed out by police with water cannons and tear gas they're all now in congregating in. the streets that are leading up to talks of square one of the main thoroughfares is to khalil with all the shops and extremely extremely popular public attraction actually i think it's blocked by the by the crowds right now i could hear them cheering and yelling slogans anti-government slogans and they're also cordoned off by police that way

and they did use water cannons to try and cool them down but that obviously didn't work so these people are not going anywhere i have as much you know some ten police came next to me and one of them was very violent protests to my gas mask and i showed him you know i had as mine i cannot breathe please don't take much my gas mask they didn't they didn't they didn't listen and i'm teetotal scam came. through brutally they took my gas mask my barretts my cats and then my friends she had to give her own gas mask to me so i didn't throw any like stones to the police but they're still attacking me and millions of people like me two days ago he said you had twenty four hours did yesterday you said you you have to if. or hours and today you said you have until tomorrow so i this is an ambush we're going to be here we're not going to leave because this is our preferred that said this is yet another. dispersal of protest in istanbul this week we had another one on

tuesday and then if you look at the city like uncle rod the capital of turkey or the protests which are dispersed by police with water cannons and tear gas have been going on there on a daily basis and only two nights of those days were there changes when police did not interfere this is a major move when it comes to dispersing protests that we're talking about guess the park now being evicted i do not think that we're seeing the end of it just yet because like i said there are thousands of people that are on the streets of istanbul right now so again we have to wait and see how this iteration develops from here. our reporting from istanbul not the capital of turkey. a specialist on the middle east who has covered on rest in the region says the protesters have little chance of getting their message across unless they are unified. what we see here is a is an urban a primarily an omen from said you know western face to the kind who used to having

a very illogical role in politics in china having allowed the police the most powerful voice that it presents in the countryside and the think that the rise to power of the islamists was upset this now and did you know this is a really positive element of the protests in and the sort of the young kids and just pop who you know we in the west and elsewhere around the world can identify with that yearning to be greater freedoms but there's a real danger that if that if he gives you kids don't get their act together sort of state that they what they're going to do is end out mainly benefiting the generals and the old school secular authorities ariens. moderate cleric hasan rowhani is iran's new president elect the reformist backed

former secretary of the supreme national security council and nuclear negotiator one fifty one percent of the vote in the election to avoid a runoff he will inherit a country with an economy badly hurt by western sanctions aimed at tehran's nuclear program are teaser rates notional has been following the vote and reports from the capital. people have taken to the streets all. day all. the mixed feelings it. carries many specially in terms of great. diplomatic isolation the country has been under the top sanctions. over its controversial nuclear program during his campaign rouhani has promised to mobilize. the

economy improve procure relations with them whereas. he's criticized many times for making remarks that cost the country credibility but at the same time instead of iran realize that the iranian system works with major power held by the supreme leader the president can do little to change things. the supreme leader has the final. disputed. syria for example. the president. of the top of the. world phone the chief nuclear negotiator. more conciliatory approach and the u.n. secretary general stated he will continue encouraging iran to play a constructive role in regional and international affairs earlier r.t.

spoke to iranian journalist. who says with rouhani as the nation's leader negotiations on tehran's nuclear program with the west are more likely to be successful. the west has made a mistake a big mistake by imposing sanctions against iran a nation i would call the sanctions genocidal sanctions that are hurting the ordinary un ians but what i'm trying to say is that the odds of a negotiation perhaps which has been nonexistent in recent years maybe mr rouhani would be able to rebuild the reigning negotiating team in such a way that they can negotiate the whole thing in a better way at the same time we need to understand that iran doesn't want anything more than its rights iran wants its nuclear rights to be respected and it is the west on the ball it's now very much is in the court of the western countries who have been accusing that ahmadinejad's administration of being stubborn out on a being not very much serious about the talks now that message one has in place is

in office the west doesn't have any more excuses they have to come to the negotiating negotiating table in a serious fashion they have to negotiate with the iranians and they have to solve this problem once and for all and the sanctions would have to be lifted a lot of people in in iran are hopeful right now that things would be much better in the coming months syria's government has condemned the claims by washington that it used chemical weapons as a caravan of lies based on fabrication damascus also accused of the white house of double standards in dealing with terrorism after it announced it would send weapons to rebels the u.s. could impose a no fly zone over parts of syria with egypt's president mohamed morsi also backing the option or he's going to try to can as more. the white house says it's the session to arm syrian rebels is based on intelligence that the assad government has used chemical weapons the mask denies the allegations washington cites its own

intelligence community as well as french and british intelligence a u.s. official who declined to be identified told the media here that according to a cia report the u.s. has acquired blood urine and hair samples from two syrian rebels one dead and one wounded and according to the cia report those two rebels were exposed to nerve agent sarin brian becker he is here with me today to talk about thank you what the administration tries to present as definitive evidence that the assad government has used chemical weapons we don't know much about the evidence that they have but this report about two rebels do you think that could be enough for the cia to come up with definitive conclusions well no the evidence is dubious it's very scant in fact but it's really not about the evidence it's not even about weapons of mass destruction is not about sara nerve gas there's been an acknowledgement in washington that if you want to take this country to war either by bombing another

country or intervening or occupying raise the specter of weapons of mass destruction and that's the ticket in order to get massive media coverage justifying an escalation and that's what's going on there's been a decision taken by the white house to escalate this is just a red herring not a red line the phrase that we often hear in washington these days is we need to tip the balance seen the other direction meaning in the direction of the rebels but behind that technical sounding phrase tipping the balance is a lot of killing that would have to be done to achieve that goal right to what lengths do you think the u.s. is ready to go to achieve a desired outcome in syria tipping the balance is just a weak euphemism and in fact bizarre and ridiculous the fact of the matter is this civil war which is taking ninety three thousand. lives according to the united nations was fueled by outside forces got their turkey saudi arabia who are they are the proxies or allies of the united states and britain and france nato powers

they've been funneling arms into syria creating the conditions for civil war in fact promoting civil war i would say they have a lot of blood on their hands senator mccain is a very active supporter of of an aggressive u.s. intervention in syria and he's everywhere now on all news channels applauding the administration's decision to arm the rebels in one of the interviews he suggested that he'd talk all the way to extremists taking over syria because they would not be allied with iran and it's not just him who constantly mentions iran in the context of these discussions how much of this is about in your opinion well john mccain's comments are very interesting but but not unusual if you look back to the last thirty years the united states has made the my enemy's enemy is my friend the theme of its foreign policy that armed osama bin ladin the mujahideen against the afghan government because it was a socialist government and aligned with the soviet union mccain is a cheerleader for war but what is the real goal yes iran is the target iran

ultimately because of its alliance with syria its alliance with hezbollah in lebanon ultimately the u.s. wants to destroy its. weaken hezbollah and finally destroy the islamic republic of iran not because it wants a more democratic iran but because it wants a puppet government or proxy like they used to have when they have the shah. the fear is that the message that the rebels will receive with the weapons is not go sit down and talk the message will be go fight and kill which kind of kills the chances of a political solution doesn't it brian becker anti-war activist in washington i'm going to. russia is also unconvinced by america's chemical weapons findings saying it would make no sense for assad to deploy a toxic arsenal foreign minister sergey lavrov also slammed washington's decision to arm rebels saying it undermined peace efforts but he's oleksiak cesky has more on moscow's response. the russian foreign minister revealed that it was very regrettable that when the allegations of rebel syrian rebels using chemical weapons

at the town of aleppo were made public by the syrian government it's time to ask the un commission to investigate and nothing was eventually done but only when the allegations of the syrian government using the chemical weapon of weapons appeared at the national expert starts the stewardess to conduct a certain investigation on this a matter that also revealed that for some time his partners in the west and israel have been saying all along that the syrian government would only use chemical weapons if it's backed against the wall she just seemed to be the syrian regime hasn't been pushed into the corner the regime according to the rebels is advancing on the ground what's the point of the regime using chemical weapons and in such small amounts to set itself up. with the chemical weapons usage by the syrian government the alleged chemical weapons usage now being hotly debated across the atlantic as well as the calls to arm the syrian rebels

a lover of said that he didn't believe that the red line the so-called red line was actually crossed first of all because what the united states believes to be the proof of assad using chemical weapons is not a substantial proof at all mainly because the prove gathering process itself was not made in accordance with international regulations. for the world there are certain rules of the organization for the prohibition of chemical weapons which suggest that samples of blood urine clothes and so will can be classed as evidence only if these samples were collected by the organizations experts and if these experts controlled the samples and rude to laurent tories us colleagues failed to assurance that these procedures were and he had to lever off also reminded that recently allegedly its wealth people from the al nusra front of syrian rebels were detained in turkey care. chemical weapons also unconfirmed reports off chemical weapons being produced in iraq for the syrian rebels love rolph found it's very

regrettable as well that these reports even despite being unconfirmed did not cause any concerns in the west well still ahead for you this hour who knows who world leaders can expect a frosty welcome as anti-capitalist protesters in the u.k. come together and head up the g eight meeting to claim banks and corporations are responsible for the country's debt and should be paying up. plus we report on how the man who blew the whistle on american government espionage against its own citizens is getting immense public support these stories and much more after a short break here on our team. mission

address grievances to our government this is the one of the biggest scandals ever and we're not allowed to do that what does that say protestors here voiced their support for edward snowden the man who admitted to being the source of leaking classified documents to the guardian he exposed widespread government surveillance being conducted by the n.s.a. amid these revelations protesters here voiced their concern about unchecked government powers i think these discussions about snowden are really a distraction what we need to be focusing on isn't whether or not what he did was lawful it's whether or not what the agency did was lawful what we do or don't do as a society about this massive accumulation of power through the control and if permission information about people's personal lives as well as there simply was information gathered on every digital electronics gadget within american it took a while protesters here to celebrate snowden's actions calling him

a whistleblower some calling him a hero government officials have condemned his actions including some members of congress snowden is believed to be in hong kong right now. here at the capitol is wall r.t. . and in hong kong hundreds have also rallied in support of edward snowden demonstrators urged in their government to protect the n.s.a. leaker from extradition lashing out at the u.s. sweeping surveillance program he exposed they also sent a letter to the u.s. consulate demanding an end to the surveillance of internet users under the n.s.a. program which violates the rights of people around the world. at least one person has been killed and several wounded after a blast rocked a second chemical plant in as many days in the u.s. state of louisiana the accident occurred as explosive nitrogen it was being moved caleb in from the international action center says that companies and politicians often turn a blind eye to safety as they focus entirely on profits louisiana is what's called

a right to work state in the united states right to work being you know euphemism for being that workers are not allowed the form of close shop contracts and so there's hostile anti-union legislation that makes it very difficult for workers to organize them to form unions so as a result of that it's much more likely that the working conditions in such factories with it are non-unionized in states where there's a culture of anti-union politics it's much more likely that they would they would have these kind of accident really you know industries organized to make profits for a small group of people and the needs of the workers are last in the lives of the workers in their safety is last in the financial calculation the infrastructure of the united states is largely it's largely lacking and it's falling apart in many places. turning to some other international news making headlines around the world this hour. thousands of teachers have protested in lisbon against austerity

economic system in the eastern bloc and about why it was doomed to fail they tell us how terrified communist bureaucrats would work very hard to give the illusion of a fish and see what their bosses were in town a century out of fear they would try to convince the state that everything was just fine they promise of a fresh coat of paint on some stuff bump up their numbers in the books and get employees to put a smile on for the cameras so they wouldn't lose their jobs yeah this our teachers told us was a sign of true doomed economics rolling the clock forward twenty or thirty years the bosses of the current global economic system are in town and many locations around the upcoming g eight summit in northern ireland are doing their best to hide their economic downturn from the media according to r.t.e. news the government of northern ireland has spent two million pounds dealing with derelict buildings some of these buildings have simply been knocked out but some have been spruced up. butcher shops with images of meat stuck over the windows to hide their barren interiors or the now famous local office supply store which
