caught in street violence police fired tear gas a curious crowds trying to storm the offices of the far right golden dawn party following the killing of an anti racism musician. chemical compliance the u.n. security council inches closer to a resolution on syria's toxic weapons but the use of force has been a stumbling block. greenpeace protesters await death rate the russian court decides on piracy charges against them to activists try to storm an oil rig in the arctic.

well costing live from our studios here in moscow this is. thousands of people have thrown the streets of athens in protest against the far right golden dawn party police fired tear gas and stun grenades and outrage demonstrators who threw petrol bombs and stones at the party's headquarters is the latest wave of anger over the murder of an anti fascist rap musician stabbed to death by a man who admitted to being a member of golden dawn the polls show that since the killing of palace greece's third largest party has lost considerable public support and this comes as no great surprise the level of racist violence has jumped significantly in crisis played greece have a look at well on the map you can see the number of races attacks several years ago but today there are hardly any empty spots on the map free of racist crime my

colleague sean thomas discussed the disturbing trend with artie's half enough. this was the largest show of public anger over the killing of published physis the thirty four year old hip hop artist an anti-fascist activist who was stabbed to death last week the man who killed him is believed to be a supporter of the far right golden dawn political party and this is a group the currently controls eight hundred seats in parliament it's been described as neo fascist. largely for its campaign of intimidation against immigrants whom it blames for some of the economic woes affecting greece right now now while published was not the first person to die at the hands of neo nazis in greece he was the first non migrant to do so and this has sparked outrage all across the country with a similar protest similar scenes last week in the early hours of this wednesday thousands of greeks marched in a largely peaceful protest they marched towards the offices of golden dawn which were secluded essentially protected by the police a group of a small group of protesters who had their faces covered in wearing helmets have

broken off started hurling petrol bombs and the scenes that you're seeing on the t.v. screen right now unfolded so a lot of anger over this murder that still fresh in people's minds so throughout europe we're seeing lots of rhetoric nationalist movements but in greece in particular how much clout is this new or not see this new fascist movement growing how much. basically protection do they have well quite a bit especially in contrast to other european countries now golden dawn isn't just a fringe group that has eighteen members in parliament out of three hundred it's on its way to becoming the third largest political force in greece the question is of course whether this murder even though the group does say that it has it disavows any ties to the murder the question is whether the political fallout of the public outrage is going to result in a decrease for support for the group and we have seen some public polls showing that it's gone down but at the same time the group doesn't joy very wide support among certain neighborhoods in greece and this is really been correlation with the

rise of the economic crisis their member that greece has been in recession for six consecutive years in a row we have an employment. nearing thirty percent two out of three young people out of work and one of the things that we found at least when speaking to political experts is they said that basically when people really don't have much to hold on to economically it's not unusual to see people turning to more radical ideas and while there are some hardcore supporters of golden dawn who might have ideas that are very much out of line with the mainstream although donna really trying to solve sell itself to the public as anti-establishment as being able to do things when the government may not be able to and that's what we really heard from certain neighborhoods where there is a lot of support for it people felt like it was an alternative and that they really couldn't trust the government to provide certain services for them and therefore turn to this group. leader of the youth wing of one of the trade unions that organized the grabby so it's violence is not the own to a sturdy want to. declare that we're against them for

racism and face it in our country there are a lot of measures of force there is. we really have a some very rough times the greek people but it doesn't mean anybody should be heard what experience a lot of violence because of a crisis when there is over thirty one people are facing. mother for survivors. people who get in on it but the thing is that the solution to our problems is not the violence. but more stories ahead for you here on our today including the olympic space walk historic mission ahead of them to you the international space station you don't see that would not fall on that morning few minutes. debates on a u.n. security council resolution to rid syria of its chemical weapons are still ongoing

but russia says an agreement could be reached in the coming days the main point of contention is including a reference to trap the seven the u.n. charter without the use of force against a mouse because if it fails to comply with the plan and the tsunami reports now from new york well it seems like russia and the u.s. are a bit closer to seeing eye to eye on the syria crisis russia's deputy foreign minister says an agreement on the u.n. security council resolution the tax requiring syria to dismantle its chemical weapons stockpiles is in fact likely by the end of this week now the actual text of the resolution will according to him include a reference to chapter seven of the u.n. charter which allows force but it should be stressed that there will be no automatic trigger for chapter seven measures and another resolution in fact would be needed if syria fails to comply the text of the resolution as many resolutions is usually a point of contention between russia and the u.s. russia always has

a tend to have any kind of text which allows for military intervention the u.s. more often pushing for blatant military intervention in an interview with the washington post foreign minister sergey lavrov pointed out u.s. double standards when it comes to dealing with rebel forces and the conflict in syria it seems the big question is will we see a major step forward in progress on syria stalemate and now it's looking like it could be a real possibility. well meanwhile the united nations inspectors arrived back in syria on wednesday to continue the probe into the use of chemical weapons that will be further investigating cases of alleged chemical attacks after reports presented by do this month confirm that sarin gas was used last report did not specify who was behind the attack but america and its allies blame the syrian regime political analyst. believes the information presented by the inspectors is inconsistent to discuss the findings of the u.n.

team my colleague. in the human found playing for instance their inconsistency is with with the center. by for victims and survivors that are not atypical and not our conventional understanding of what occurs in a nerve gas exposure some very stark ones in the environmental sampling it appears that in the west. where the humans outlaying showed almost one hundred percent positive there are no samples taken by the u.n. team that show theron there are a few samples taken that show degradation of ferrand but even these are not consistent in within both the labs there could be false positives the u.n. now as a result of all these holes in its original report needs to than address these and ensure for itself that it has the proper access and time to investigate other areas

of alleged chemical weapons attacks or meanwhile mr breton gordon who is a former commander of the british military chemical defense regiment disagrees with the criticism of the u.n. report. it is true to say the siren in its pure form wasn't find in that. place however d.n.i. a i am yeah a n n b a which is a joke or a geisha products of sarin was found consider that an area i think the other thing that is important to say is that the rocketry was not discovered and analyze as it was in the two other locations which grew into a positive for sarin and at that being the case are sure that that would have been it but i also agree with the russian dossier on science has not been published and another that pieces so we need do you see the whole picture of i think generally the un report was conducted in the right way and is very conclusive that sarin was used but it doesn't of course in blame and that's something that that really needs

to be done as well. iranian president hassan rouhani says he's ready to conclude talks on the country's nuclear program in as little as three months of meeting between tehran and five permanent security council members and germany so to take place on thursday new york and iran's foreign minister and u.s. secretary of state john kerry will participate in the talks making at the highest level meeting between brain and american officials in the three decades during his address to the u.n. general assembly on wednesday iran's president said he's open for dialogue on an equal basis calling on the u.s. to play a key role in the process he stressed was no place for nuclear weapons in iran security and political analyst. says the change in terrans tone presents a unique opportunity to resolve the situation. the process whereby he has received you know a popular mandate as

a result of the elections as well as the green light from the supreme leader and so on in order to negotiate on the nuclear standoff and you know a lot of issues are on the table he is willing to negotiate without precondition and so on so i think that you know there's a sense of optimism and among the reigning in leadership. unique opportunity right now in order to cause a breakthrough in the nuclear deadlock russian courtis to decide the fate of a green peace activists accused of piracy they were arrested after trying to scale an oil platform in protest against drilling in russia's aren't going to account is following the story for us now. they will see if the prosecutors will actually formally press charges and if yes the judge will decide what will be the form of detention of these activists before a trial takes place russia's federal security service said russian border guards

detained the greenpeace activists for quote an attempt of seizure of the. pretty house lawn their oil platform in the arctic greenpeace activists say it was a peaceful act of protest against oil production in the arctic russian authorities say the greenpeace international ship had ignored many warnings to stay away from the platform and at the decision was made to detain the activists when they started climbing the oil platform using ropes and grapples president putin was asked about the case just yesterday as he took part in the arctic conference and he said for russian border guards it was an attempt to seize the platform technically it was an attempt to seize the platform and they couldn't be absolutely sure that he was not someone else under the disguise of greenpeace and he said it was their duty to detain them but the russian president also said that it's now obvious that the ship's thirty crew members are not pirates and we have heard indications from the

russian federal security service that they they do think that the crew of the ship has. broken the law because because they have by entering the northern sea route without the permission and probably possibly that they knew the activists knew that they were ignoring the bands and the warnings that they there were they would be detained when they were climbed. that was the kind of attention. the activists needed it needed because. because it drew more attention to their cause and especially the head of the of the arctic conference that took took place yesterday . well the hearing at the court in the russian the port city of umansky is about to start and you can follow the transmission auntie's video agency at roughtly dot tv and we'll keep you updated on that as well. just ahead for you including salt she

introduce oneself not only did the new u.s. ambassador to ukraine congratulate ukrainians on their independence day in their language but he also made his embassy employees sing a traditional song. to bring more sweet music to ukrainian ears mr piatt said the country's european integration will be his priority as will ensuring an easy passage for american oil and gas giants into its market exxon mobil and chevron the two companies interested in cooperation with ukraine they will bring american technologies know how and money into ukraine it will be good for the country and will help it become energy independent. mr piet certainly knew what strengths to pool as the energy issue has been one of the most intensely debated in ukraine which has long been unhappy with the prices of the gas advice from russia ukraine has been fighting for its energy

independence since the nine hundred ninety s. and when the first stock of the country using its shale gas reserves came up many breathed a sigh of relief but as the time passes by this optimism seems to be waning while ukraine's energy minister was visibly happy with the shale gas initiatives once it's operational we will strive to fully meet our domestic energy needs and to even become an exporter some raised a sensible question would the country actually win by letting foreign companies handle their resources enormous the administration of ukraine's western ivanna from course krege and said no to chevron's shale gas operations on their soil leaving the company would simply rob them. under current conditions in our region will not receive anything from these gas extraction this display of unease matters little though as energy experts expect gas corporations to lobby a lot to let parliament issue such permissions instead of regional authorities and while ukraine's west is being defiant the east of the country has already given up

recently key a finalist a ten billion dollar deal with shell for the exploration and extraction of shale gas a former press officer for ukraine state gas company enough the gas says the issue has been turned into a major political power play. it's still unclear how much gas is there and whether it will be possible to extract it yet everyone makes such a big deal of it it's like looking at hand which hasn't been caught not even knowing if that actually exists even the most optimistic forecasts suggest that ukraine would not start extracting its shale gas until the year twenty twenty that's if there is any gas at all but until then a question remains pretty much open with this lead to the country's much desired energy independence or simply do we changed. in who they're dependent on. ski r.t. reporting from kiev ukraine i mean why are you crane has announced it wants to become an associate member of the e.u. and then to its free trade zone kiev expects an agreement in the event ratification

next year financial experts are actually young thinks it's a precarious path for the ukraine and europe crane has somewhat of a challenging business environment for those who say they are used to western european standards they don't really produce a lot that the european union is instantly rushing to buy even presuming that the european union had economic growth and was really aggressively buying things in the first place given the fact that it has an incredibly significant russian minority population to simply turn its back on russia moreover as we know ukraine has had difficulty paying its gas bills and of course we all know that in the macro picture ukraine's economy is somewhat challenged in that respect ukraine needs to be very very careful in some degree is there treading on thin ice and certainly upset in russia seems to be somewhat kind of to recent history it's a very challenging thing to try and work out exactly what is the advantage to this

deal for either party the european union the u.s. or trying to get ukraine over to their side but it's very difficult to see ultimately what can be the long term benefit for the people when the european union has so many problems to sort itself. well some other international headlines for you now starting with siddharth violent clashes rocked by the lifting of fuel subsidies left at least twenty nine people dead and eighty wounded in a capital khartoum violence erupted when police resorted to force an attempt to disperse running crowds protest has had also gathered in the streets in anger over recent austerity measures it was a dance economy has been struggling since all reducing south sudan independence in twenty the. number of dead from the seven point seven magnitude earthquake in southwest pakistan has now passed three hundred forty the quake struck in a remote mountainous area causing hundreds of houses to collapse thousands were

they're only making thirty eight dollars a month hardly a living wage to feed one person let alone an entire family sounds like a reasonable request considering how the country is one of the largest clothing manufacturers and earns about twenty billion dollars exporting items for the rest of the world but it's not just about money it was building collapse was just the latest in a string of incidents like factory fires and other collapses that reveal the abysmal working climate for these employees although some clothing brands have tried to sign safety agreements and pledge money for safety inspectors it's not enough these people work tirelessly in sweatshops for slave wages and can't even guarantee that they'll make it home safely to their families at the end of the day as of now hundreds of factories have already been forced to close because of the mounting pressure and unions vow to continue fighting even if it means all forty five hundred factories across the country have to close their doors so let's stand in solidarity with them.
