i'm. protecting people's freedoms all our time trying to sway voters germany's motives are questioned as a demand stuff of privacy regulations worldwide that's after being caught red handed helping washington got the private data. on us no way could threaten sanctions to any state that would shout to n.s.a. leaker edward snowden and a crank us president daniel ortega the leader one potential save haven told aussie that america's pursuit of the whistleblower is insane. also this hour egypt's ousted president is questioned of attacks on the middle treat while the country braces of south for a rival ronnie showdown with the muslim brotherhood on the all makes trying to make some is armed opposition. on the syrian national coalition plans at an official

summit with the u.n. secretary security council on bringing peace to the country and to bargaining for weapons with the u.s. and reports say they might get. this is all she coming here live from moscow hello and welcome to the program germany wants to tighten the screws on the u.n. data protection regulations it comes after an avalanche of criticism and what some see as the government's failure to deal with a scandal which revealed a role in massive u.s. led surveillance but many in germany view the move as a simple attempts to win back political points ahead of september's genuine action piece on the reports now from belin. so two of germany's most senior cabinet members have written to the e.u.

counterparts to try and get them to push the united nations to change their current privacy legislation that all seems well and good especially when you come to that the current privacy legislation was written way back in one thousand nine hundred sixty six long before things like mobile phones facebook the internet all of those things that the n.s.a. being apparently looking into now this could be a genuine effort by the by the german ministers to try and help the privacy of the people of the european union or it could be something of a smokescreen and a bit of damage limitation you have to consider that germany was one of the major helpers for the national security agency when they were spying on people around the world in fact the b. and d. the german secret service operated one of the major parts of prism this was called the x. keyscore program that basically looked into what people were searching for online

and five hundred million data connections here in germany were checked or were available to be checked by the n.s.a. now this all comes after a week in which we've seen angela merkel originally claimed that she only heard about n.s.a. spying through the media at then turned out that in fact germany was one of these major partners now the germans have an election coming up a big general election coming up here at the end of september and the german people are understandably upset by the amount of information of theirs that was being looked at whether edward snowden knew that he could be a big influence in the german elections when he decided to leak these things will never know but what's the certain is he definitely and the information he's brought forward will definitely be used in the upcoming weeks and months before that vote or considering the involvement of germany and other countries in the n.s.a. spying program it begs the question whether this is a legitimate attempt to improve the previous c.

of the citizens of the you or just politicians attempting to cover up the fact that they've been caught with their hand in the cookie jar. i was spoke to dr alexander dix the balun commissioner for data protection and freedom of information and good things german politicians are moving in the right direction by attempting to change the law and prior civil war that actual motives are under the german law and the german constitution there is a fundamental right of informational self-determination of privacy as you call it and data protection commissioners all over the world have for a long time called for an international treaty to have privacy regulations in place to protect individual privacy and data when surfing the internet and crossing borders and now the n.s.a. scandal is just the last tip into the voted to do this. it clear that we urgently need an international agreement in this fear but what

we're seeing here is really excessive secrecy protecting excessive surveillance and that cannot go on as it has done in the past we need effective control and we need limits to what the intelligence services are allowed to do. and while germany's engaged reverse gear when it comes to surveillance some of us friendly states are doing exactly the opposite big brother is getting bigger in new zealand as the country's leadership wants to expand its spying program in the name of national security check out the story at r.t. dot com. meanwhile in washington lawmakers are pushing for trade or other sanctions to be imposed against any country that grants asylum to n.s.a. leaker edward snowden it was initiated by a republican who earlier president obama not to go to september's g. twenty summit in russia and call for a boycott of the winter olympics in sochi meanwhile the man who exposed the scope

of u.s. spying to the world has been holed up in a moscow airport for more than a month now edward snowden is seeking asylum in russia and waiting for the paperwork to allow him to leave the airport transit three last american countries earlier said they were ready to shelter the whistleblower nicaragua is among them its president explicitly told r.t. why snowden would be welcomed there. i think the threats coming from the us work against them it's ridiculous power like the united states threatening and young man who's had enough courage to tell the truth about something that went against his principles a man who realized at a certain point but who could cross the line of what is called intelligence work he understood were intelligence and lawlessness begins and that lawlessness has nothing to do with secret operations that were and were protecting state interests or with the search for scientific information a point when he sort of this is sheer madness because it isn't normal it's not like the us are forcing the europeans hand in this is just of they have something in common common positions

a common strategy and the same desire for global domination they want to impose democratic principles on the world they want to judge all nations. well as he's been investigating the last america's resolve your sentiment could lay upon the people living in the region ready to be friends with washington but only if it starts exploiting their countries as tools and treating them like servants bone that still to come. also later this hour record unemployment or francaise younger generations feel the pinch scrambling for what can a country that conned employ them. egyptian prosecutors has placed ousted president mohamed morsi on the investigation that he's him of siding with hamas to tuck it drives military facilities during the twenty eleven revolution meanwhile the on has given the muslim brotherhood and till saturday to join the interim government's reconciliation plan and stop inciting

violence is about true reports now from cairo. what these charges stem from is from when mom and morsi was in detention in avoiding the truth prison during the eighteen day uprising in two thousand and eleven he was why you see not going to be a political prisoner in the post invasion but i think it's very much against mubarak the break from facing the chinese not prison break and what the charges here are saying is that he collaborated with you actually break out of prison to kill police officers and also you show interest in keeping possibly the kidnapping offices as well as possibly burning down prisons and these are very heavy charges thing and basically to show you time many people here are saying some people here. you say should leveled against out. then the tense atmosphere here in really just

why offer his support as you already hundreds of gathered here in tahrir square in supports all of the miniature the office the general these are the guys you see seeing who is the head of the army the people who come down to the streets against terrorism he calls it now we're also going to see much projections of the military across the capital and cross the country today and meanwhile we still have a sitting in support of the ousted leader mohamed morsi just across the capital here you know by the way a mosque and also you could see my right across the nile at cairo university now that i mean this is saying they must come down the streets it's a difficult and morsi has to be president he must be reinstated with his new knees of the crime scene and mostly we expect tensions to be extremely high the military have given the muslim brotherhood who would see it now is to get them both the political right not they didn't outline what would happen if that forty hours which is to use opinion on saturday many fear that we will see further violence and

already had you know here in the capital one fifty one people were killed inside this very most recent you know a few weeks ago so really what we're feeling right now is a lot of love and atmosphere here i see for the hoary that these rival protest groups may clash or the security forces might crack down on those in support of mohamed morsy. the cradle of the arab spring is restless once again a second calls to me ziad follows decimation of a prominent opposition politician where the business is shot down on the national ad line grounded all about. they all told him a language of war but i will only react to situations i have read the reports so i'm likely to push the no i will leave them to state clearly to comment on your latter point of the month to save lives to carry out

a car is on the docket no gun. no a job no more weasel words. when you made a direct question be prepared for a change when you draw a line you should be ready for a battle freedom of speech and a little down the freedom to question. my. i searched. and i think.

this is also you coming to you live from moscow welcome bach the cia could already be preparing for a campaign to all and see where and rebels as allegedly started to sneaking weapons into neighboring jordan that's according to anonymous u.s. diplomats they were told started to comment after they see our national coalition met with the u.s. secretary of state john kerry in new york with weapons shipments leaving that trend and an informal session with the u.n. secretary council security council is also still to come on she's more in a partner has more now on that. i delegate representing the syrian opposition is in new york city for a three day visit that kicked off thursday afternoon during a bilateral meeting between the group and us secretary of state john kerry prior to the closed door discussions kerry said that there could not be any military solution to the syrian crisis only a political solution not political solution is expected to be ironed out at the upcoming geneva two conference co-sponsored by russia and the u.s.

however it is no secret that the syrian opposition would like to receive the weapons and military aid that the obama administration recently promised to deliver to rebels that are currently fighting against syrian president bashar al assad that topic was likely addressed when kerry met behind closed doors with the visiting delegation which is being led by the president of the syrian national coalition ahmed jarba what some experts are questioning at the moment is the overall legitimacy of the syrian national coalition critics say the group has no official power and lacks support and recognition inside of syria now the syrian national coalition was founded in doha and is based in stamboul some see this group as outsiders lobbying for more arms to import into syria's already bloody civil war during the meeting secretary kerry conveyed washington's commitment to helping strengthen the syrian opposition however several u.s. lawmakers have publicly opposed providing weapons to rebels arguing that the arms

can fall into the hands of terrorists and members of al qaeda who are fighting alongside anti assad groups now according to the un's latest figures more than one hundred thousand syrians have died in the nearly two and a half year civil war and with more weapons and ammunition expected to arrive in the country from washington ending the violence may be calm even harder reporting from new york marine up or niam arctic. ocean tons ponds to start sending by. since the syrian rebels set off an alarm among some u.s. lawmakers senator rand paul said is this same as directly arming terrorists so you will have to say it all to dot com and also online for you russian quarter journal if you will but pursue right. to let me go i will continue to serve her sentence will be so cold punk prayer in the country's main cathedral. also even trapped in the ecuadorian embassy in london chief we can be rude and

sundry is no giving up his struggle by launching his own political party in australia more of that at all to dot com. businesses across tunisia are closed and the national ad carrier has counseled flights on the second day of protests over the killing of a sing the opposition figure the country's drano labor union has called for a national strike to express that anger thousands clashed with police on thursday off to mohamed a brahmin or shot dead in front of his home by two a local reporter some tea has more now from tunis. and there were hundreds and hundreds of solutions outside of the main how are you in downtown tunis the police used tear gas squares the crowds multiple times as small group of projects are. gathered in front of the ministry of interior and police used tear gas water to disperse the crowd but then there were different

crowds in different places in every gesture outside the hospital where grab used by the was there were protesters outside the headquarters of. the government has been telling people that their lives progress is made in seeing here concrete results. the constitution is not ready and it's been. two years since the national assembly started with. the elections the next elections there is no specific sector so people have been already frustrated and that's mentioned the economy and pull him instead. rami was a member and former leader of the secular people's movement party was also on the board drafting a new constitution for the country and the middle east strategist ana boyd told us his death will significantly bought that for us. i think it's quite

a serious impact for the drafting the constitution primarily because and that is actually given quite a few concessions to the secularists and i think the secularists now will be pushing for even more concessions from but the trouble is that i think the killing is likely to polarize both sides. the more that secularists blame enough the more that the right wing of a nutter is likely to take a defensive position and try to accuse the secularists of trying to undermine them i mean after all they were democratically elected so it makes it more difficult for the moderates on both sides to really come to compromises on the constitution there are still some outstanding issues on that people are accusing enough to of having made revisions to the draft constitution that haven't been approved by the other parties involved. so i think it will polarize things more in terms of drafting the constitution and delay things quite a lot. in france the number of people out

a while has reached a record high with almost five million unemployed it's cast a shadow of a president or loans optimism the country is being pulled from its economic mire france has now seen as jobless level increased steadily for more than two years and . three notion explains the crisis is forcing talented young french people to try their luck elsewhere. the grass is not always greener on the other side even for those eurozone countries that are in dire straits even the block's biggest economies are feeling the pinch france is now officially in crisis at least in a job crisis recent data from french labor ministry paints a disturbing picture june saw another rise in unemployment with almost fifteen thousand more people now out of work that's five hundred new jobless every day. there are more than the percent of the provision of broad yes but croissants

forty of them but almost ten percent of the division is bought and on board but for that biased. the reason behind the gloom is statistics according to the labor minister is expired the short term contracts that are never in you'd as cautious companies can no longer afford to keep people secretly just want to put moore's have no opportunity to develop tuxes or very high bureaucracy is terrible hiring people is a big problem and it's even worse to fire them the result businesses close and people are put on the streets. and like in other crisis hit countries young people a single divorced heat youth unemployment in france is above twenty six per cent more than double the national average. b. of a business c.n.n. to the negative trend every year he says over six hundred thousand students graduate just to realize they're not one to. be for decades france was

a rich country and our old people had money there is a curious situation today where by grandparents pay for their grandchildren's education but when these people's resources dried out what will we do some young people think they have the answer and that is to leave the country seven million tourists come to admire have evil tower in paris every year that's around twenty. thousand people every day france is among the most visited nations on earth but for its own citizens its charms that fading. this film producer from france moved to london for career reasons at home he says he didn't have a future he sings even before the crisis france did little enough to provide the yarn and dishes with proper employment now after the economic meltdown those opportunities have shrunk to zero. is the whole system of the country moping and it's all stuck in these very if you're disabled you need to have this position and

you need to study from this university so they're not really open to ambitious people oregon says he's unlikely to ever come back and it seems he'll soon be joined by many others these two french students have just begun their studies their plans to leave france on the first train after their graduation. that is a necessary sacrifice we can't realise her dreams here but there are nor particular . friend adds it's a political message to the government that something's going wrong. when all of there is no direction we're going down the state has no precise line because of something ugly and disgusting we're not going anywhere if the future is bleak the authorities try to remain optimistic president a law and pledges to bring unemployment down by the end of these here skeptics say that is only feasible if most of job seekers say or who are to france. or

r.t. from paris. and economic analyst for french online news site counterpoints alex korbel says the socialist movement will have its work cut out putting a positive face on the spiralling level of unemployment. the latest negative figures shouldn't suppress the the the media or the public because unemployment has been growing for the last twenty six months i almost feel sorry for the government spin doctors because it's clearly a catastrophe and it shows that the the lack of reform that government french government is doing clearly doesn't pay off we are seeing more and more in the course of safety a lot unfair safety because as long as you know that just stayed current controls more and more of the to me you have basically the state giving special privileges to a specific interests for example the people working in the big school system are really

protected especially by this government exactly sixty years ago saw the beginning of a nationwide curve that ousted the us box six states have their hands here but to start this sowed the seeds of america has not only on the neighbor a the island but all across latin america. can found out what the us did the status of sentiment. black american leaders defiant speeches against the u.s. are a regular occurrence these days but what is fueling their indignation when you know we want the united states to be or foreigners like russia is or party like brasil like india like all other countries you know emerging powers our friends of us not our bosses the history of how washington eliminated itself the neighbors is best illustrated by the events that led to the cuban revolution sixty years ago back

then the us supported the autocratic and corrupt regime of president bush who ruled the island for the benefit of very few people there the us ambassador to cuba at the time earl krishna of. the shed i ran cuba from the sixth floor of the u.s. embassy the cuban job to grow sugar and shut up some historians argue that the revolution and the subsequent alienation of the island state might have been avoided had the us be more considerate of the cuban people think we're rushing to when all was. in its convenient use of a rich elite class to rule account and their bastard rash aspirations are pure lation it never really wanted or help your age or allied with the markers just four years ago the us supported the coup that deposed hundred

democratically elected president since then the country has been descending deeper into an abyss of human rights abuses and instability the united states does not want a series of or more elect this is the reason they didn't like chavez because out of sugar as they got morales and they got that's libya guys and they got the guy in ecuador. and so if they get another one and under it. all. a domino effect cha this is nationalization of the country's oil industry as well as his subsidized oil shipments to cuba that irritate washington for use in two thousand and two the bush administration supported the coup against the late president chavez mass protests brought his back to power and set the stage for worsening relations with the u.s. he's not just more fair to the signs policies just in the benefit of your corporation and to destroy those countries those people in order to integrate their

economies and to be less dependent on the u.s. politically and economically south american nations have joined in a union called humus sore. what you have is a desire on the part of the region to have rich own foreign policy and all economic policy they don't want to be manipulated and they want to be respected by having looked at latin america as its backyard to which it can dictate policies washington has alienated the people in a host the both countries people who would otherwise have nothing against the u.s. in washington i'm going to check out. and offer had a look behind the mainstream financial headlines and primer and.

boy oh boy there are a lot of conspiracy theories out there from mysterious extra planets drip killian creatures living among us but there also may conspiracy theories that are very plausible. some that are well actually true one that i've heard for a long time is that they are specifically trying to fill the police with dimwits to abuse the american people which is silly right right according to a.b.c. news the discrimination lawsuit revealed that robert jordan was denied the chance to become a new london police officer because he was too smart his entrance exam score was a thirty three which is an i.q. of one hundred twenty five and it was just too high to allow him to defend the public good that police department only accepts candidates who have scores from twenty to twenty seven the logic is that people who are too smart get bored as

policemen and they're more likely to quit after years of costly training. yeah this is proof of a conspiracy theory well the lowest score they accept is still around an average i.q. so that doesn't mean they're specifically trying to fill the place with subpar people but it does seem really weird to fear people with high i.q.'s entering the police force this case to have a confirms nor denies the conspiracy theory but is definitely food for thought and does a kind of not make sense to discriminate against anyone ever for having a high i.q. i don't know but that's just my opinion. you know sometimes you see a story and it seems so you think you understand it and then you glimpse something else you hear or see some other part of it and realize that everything you thought you knew you don't. target was a big issue. that
