washington puts a strike against your own cold world russia's proposal that damascus give up its chemical weapons allowing president obama to postpone a congressional vote i mean a lot of public and political support. as a u.n. report implicates above the syrian regime and opposition forces in world crimes it was speak to those who came from abroad to fight not full democracy but for joe and . later this hour the world economic forum opens in china as the country's government promises new reforms to turn its currency into a fully fledged alternative to the dollar and you are.

international news live from moscow this is the with me thanks for joining us. on a strike against syria can wait but the threat of military action should remain after weeks of believe the u.s. president has agreed to give diplomacy a chance following russia's proposal to put syria's chemical weapons under international control barack obama made the comments in an address to a nation which according to recent polls is mostly a gay's to engaging in a new war on she's going to check out reports now from washington we saw president obama engage the acrobatics with a message that many americans will find very confusing he was forceful in. are necessary asking the american people to support him at the same time he will say maybe they will not be necessary and maybe diplomacy can work with whispering to

russia's proposal for syria to give up its chemical weapons this is it's too early to tell whether this offer will succeed in any agreement must to verify that the assad regime keeps its commitments but this initiative has the potential to remove the threat of chemical weapons without the use of force particularly because russia is one of assad's strongest allies. i have therefore asked the leaders of congress to postpone a vote to authorize the use of force while we pursue this diplomatic path the spin that president obama is now putting on russia's proposal is that a diplomatic solution only came because he threatened force but as much as the u.s. president is now trying to capitalize on that line of fog it's important to remember what preceded this proposal president obama was facing congress that was most likely to vote no on his war initiative because american people overwhelmingly oppose military action against syria and they've been barred their representatives

with calls demanding that they vote no so he had congress the american people against him on that beat either you was not going along the u.n. has been against such inaudible action given all this many saw this diplomatic opening as a life raft if you will for president obama who with his military threat says basically boxing self into a corner we've heard a call for strip him of the nobel peace prize for not showing enough initiative to find a diplomatic solution while now the administration is saying secretary kerry was dismissive for marg on monday which russia picked off on was not really a rhetorical gaffe and that there was a strategy behind it by the way here is more about the strategy i've spoken to the leaders of two of our closest allies france and the united kingdom and we will work together in consultation with russia and china to put forward a resolution at the u.n. security council requiring assad to give up his chemical weapons and to ultimately destroy them under international control will also give you one inspectors the up

to him to report their findings about what happened on august twenty first it was interesting to hear president obama talk about the you weigh. considering that his administration was largely dismissive of the u.n. effort all the way trying to discredit the work of u.n. inspectors and refusing to show the u.n. security council the classified evidence that washington says it has against the assad government but it looks like the future of this resolution of this proposal will be about who the judgment on whether or not the proposal is working will belong to is it going to be the u.s. which has a track record of jumping to bombs as a first option or the international community which has a real interest in resolving the crisis in syria and making sure that the weapons are not used again. despite the international community embracing the chance to end the diplomatic standoff over syria russia says it's a design moment proposal will walk only if plans are scrapped all together she's an

isa now it has more now on the view from moscow. syria has agreed to give up its chemical weapons this is a game changer it's a way out for the u.s. and also a chance for diplomacy in the syrian crisis something that seemed almost impossible just a week ago but according to russia in order for it to work the threat of force needs to be taken off the table. and with lou surely a positive move because that i mean we've heard a positive reaction from syria to the chemical weapons destruction offer we're now hoping that our syrian colleagues will make a responsible decision to put their stockpiles under control agreed to destroy them enjoying the chemical weapons nonproliferation treaty no doubt it can only work if we get the u.s. and its allies to agree not to use force clearly this option is being taken very seriously by the u.s. it was first discussed by putin and obama and will now move forward this week

between circuit love rove and john kerry but you with those opportunities present them soon much to the the ball or not so we did talk about the since you had the g. twenty summit and we agreed that it will work in that direction and we'll have the secretary of state and russian foreign minister to try and move this forward it's up to top diplomats now to try to move this proposal forward this week what many see as a last chance for a step towards peace in the syrian conflict. meanwhile talks on the proposed removal of syria's chemical weapons have begun among u.n. security council members and they are proving to be a tense affair russia has rejected attempts to put forward a resolution under chapter seven of the u.n. charter which implies the use of force for noncompliance historian and middle east expert mark almond believes even if the u.n. security council agrees on the resolution it will be difficult to implement because of the syrian opposition actions. it is possible that the syrian government assets

could be conveyed relatively risk re into the hands of an international commission though of course with a civil war that is not going to be easy the question is what about those assets that may have been territory that is either controlled by the rebels or chemical weapons that the rebels could intercept as though being moved and so it's very difficult to see that the rebels have an interest in this resolution clearly one thing that unites the disparate rebel groups is they hope that american bombing would weaken assad and make their chances of coming to stronger so the rebels have no great interest in a successful outcome to this even if in practice it might be in the interests of all the members of purity council to come to some resolution of this issue which saves everybody's face enables everybody to claim to be a peacemaker and could put this beast complicated part and potentially very dangerous part of the syrian equation out of service. and of course where you are interested in what you think about the stories we're covering here on r.t.

so you can go to our website dot com and have your say about a possible outcome syria's chemical of syria's chemical desire and so far the majority of our viewers and readers think removing chemical weapons will only postpone the u.s. and its allies plans to attack roughly eighteen percent of you are convinced the civil war will continue but without chemical weapons just one percent less say the move while and prevent the further use of illegal agents in syria as some may remain unaccounted for and only a handful of you think the syrian government and its opponents will engage in peace negotiations so you can go to r.t. dot com and cast. washington has started to supply rebels in syria with lethal arms according to the opposition as a un report accuses government forces and opposition fighters of carrying out war crimes including executions hostage taking and the shelling of civilian neighborhoods

wildfires raging in may actually have been because it's. now with less than two weeks before germany's parliamentary elections the kind of the being accused of sending the electorate into a political coma but i want to report smaller parties are hoping to see the votes of board citizens and to the big arena. on the campaign trail hoping to strike a chord. and efficient with us we convince that we have to get a say and a higher level we end up having to pay for the big decisions so we want to be part of the process. free voters are a grassroots political organization they're opposed to the major german parties they claim look out for the interests of big business over those voters we don't have the big money the other parties have for commercials for leaflets etc we mostly paid ourselves the candidates pay it because we cannot raise so much funds.

also because we don't tolerate lobbyists most of their support comes from rural areas where people feel ignored by the bureaucracy in berlin the party has its eye counted on influencing decisions far beyond the very a though they want to see struggling eurozone countries be able to reissue their own currencies to help tackle inflation as well as end bailouts home this bank is still is bailed out by the state we don't want this any longer we don't want banks to be bailed out by the taxpayer small parties like this one are unlikely to cause too much concern for chancellor angela merkel however three voters are convinced that they can draw support from those who've become disillusioned with the more established political parties. in big parties this is flow from top to bottom and that with these guys everyone can bring their ideas to the table and each person's opinion counts yeah yeah bring in. i think small parties that are not spoiled yet

are very important we need different points of view out there. but i know these small parties are not playing the game if they can get into a coalition me they can have a real influence. in the two thousand and eight varian state elections free vote is picked up just over ten percent of the vote this time the aiming to go further the others they have a lot of money so we have the members and we have the spirit of how much the spirit converts into votes we'll find out on september the twenty second when germans go to the polls peter all of us are to the very. now with c.c.t.v. cameras watching go every step on the most advanced secure is again place how do terrorists so manage to stay off the raids on documentary reveals all that's up next.

i know c.n.n. the m s n b c news have taken some slightly but the fact is i admire their commitment to cover all sides of the story just in case one of them happens to be. that was funny but it's closer to the truth and might take. off. goods because one whole attention and the mainstream media works side by side the joke is actually on you. and our teenagers we have a different approach. oh yeah because the news of the world just is not this funny i'm not laughing dammit i'm not i. but. if.

you get a sense of the jokes i will hand over the stuff that i've got to. busch's the perpetrators are older than is driven by their hatred of the government. as a religious fanatics. to society protect itself against the encounter level how should it react to attacks with retaliation. or like the citizens of norway and spain who opted for freedom and openness. london two thousand and five. on july the seventh four bombs exploded three in underground trains one in a double decker bus the result fifty six deaths and seven hundred injuries the

attack is not from the outside nor from the end. the four young assassins of muslims three of them born in the u.k. . a traumatic experience for the metropolis in the blink of an eye the entire city fell out of step it's about her ability visible tool. these things live on in the collective memory they become sources of mourning and many more and they have formal memorials and song but this is nothing actually new you know london has a two thousand year history of disaster of plague of wall of strife so there is a pragmatic culture to this city as with many other cities that you know you grief you move on you go through trauma and shock and then life goes on and what is the

alternative to have one just stay at home. and bunker themselves off from the future of the world and the life of the city it's not an option. the police quickly identify the perpetrators and their accomplices naturally with the help of surveillance cameras. in a second series of attacks fourteen days later and innocent man was shot. he had dog skin and was reportedly wearing a thick jacket with wires hanging from it as he fled. but the video shows he did not flee. the cameras could prevent neither the bomb attacks nor the death of an innocent man.

the bombs of two thousand and five and more than twenty years of ira threats have led to an all pervasive architecture of security diverse obstructions guard against trucks laden with explosives reinforced concrete barriers come of laws does flower boxes and benches. while working on their project ring of steel and reactor williams and george being ill also discovered how urban space is transforming and another different way this would be in a public street as the public right now is now being sold to a developer as the comfort of a tight space so the actual landscape begins to completely change and what you have in these spaces is they're put piece by private security guards and although you have the right to walk down it they can actually choose to so you have these like strange places that begin to the compost of the city.
