to the point that some gulag of our minds. posing to fall in line at washington is accused of topping the very top and germany's snooping on chancellor merkel herself and operation and demands in the media dollars. the secrets of the detainee's a safe would be wardens. spittles guantanamo bay where paying clean virgins and fine dining it's too faded in may for experience firsthand you're seeing what there is to see. our poll censored by the u.s. military is coming up but if your mom. battling in the darkness see where is recovering after i bought a nationwide blackout caused by an alleged terror strike on a cave gas pipeline under the tunnel in the country's capital. the price of crude

it's a cute. they've devastated. and every day filled with families who are abused or need. international news and comment live from moscow this is all she with me your dish thanks for joining us. this scandal around immigration as the u.s. is spying on its european allies is snowballing with germany becoming the second country this week demanding a full explanation from washington a fresh wave of indignation responds by claims that n.s.a. was monitoring the phone conversations of chancellor angela merkel herself all of our reports now on the potential consequences if the grave breach of trust is

proven between the close allies. the statement from the foreign ministry that alerted us that the german the us ambassador to germany had been summoned stress the fact that foreign minister vest developer would be meeting with him in person now usually a junior diplomat would have taken a meeting like this but the german side wanting to get to the bottom of these allegations is as quickly as possible now this follows up a phone call from angle and merkel directly to barack obama on wednesday after the news broke that perhaps the united states had been listening into the personal phone calls of the german chancellor now a spokesperson for i'm glad merkel said that if this turned out it had happened it would be completely unacceptable and said that angela merkel wanted an immediate and comprehensive response from the united states from the u.s. side where the white house issued a statement saying that the u.s. was not listening into angela merkel's phone and had no intention to do it in the

future we have seen action starting to take place over the n.s.a. spying revelations that have come out following edward snowden's leaks of course it started off as just demonstrations all across europe with some demonstrations here in berlin but we're now starting to see real developments the european parliament suspended the swift accord with the united states know what the swift agreement was as it shared banking data between the united states and the e.u. it was supposed to allow investigators to see if money was being used from e.u. accounts to help fund terrorism also the european parliament has said well they've tried to put in place some tougher laws on data sharing with the with the united states and also told member states to put in place their their own. their own precautions to try and plug holes in what seems to be a very leaky ship of data here in europe with all of that that leakage heading towards the united states now it's also starting to put a real dampener on potentially multi billion dollar trade deal between the e.u.

and the united states. and john's who's a spokesperson for data protection and a pirate pos he says despite current a righteous anger they determine authorities are reaping what they have so by fully complying with the controversial surveillance practices of think it was. the conservative government was protecting the secret service cooperation between the german services and the n.s.a. over a long time so i think edward snowden is right when he says that the german secret service and the german government is in bed with u.s. authorities and n.s.a. if you look at the whole n.s.a. scandal there have been so many leaks and so many documents i have not seen until today a single document that can prove that a terrorist attack was. was came out because of the n.s.a.

spying programs so there is no success rate right now while all of that we see from the documents and from the leaks that came out is an ep use of these surveillance measures. the n.s.a. revelations have had on the business community is the focus of today's kaiser report and his initial will still come for you next. and say revelations kill i.b.m. hardware sales in china wednesday evening it was i.b.m.'s turn to confess that its hardware sales in china had simply collapsed every word was colored by edward snowden's revelation about the n.s.a.'s hand in glove collaboration with american tech companies from start ups to mastodons like i.b.m. well this is interesting because it shows the commercial impact of the spying scandal ultimately the idea that spying is making people more secure is going to backfire because comparatively america is crashing and won't have any money at all

to buy even a slingshot much less a cruise missile because no foreign government will do business with them and china of course has trillions of dollars in reserves and like warren buffet brought bought into i.b.m. at the high one seventy's he had a nice run now it's back to what he paid for he famously says really buys things that he understands they were going to stand corporate espionage. one of the world's most attention grabbing prisons gone time of day has long learned how to don't have time to spy reporters and also the crew decided to check for itself on what life is read in like that and to see churkin his report has been censored by gone ton of us don't. transparency is a word repeated by u.s. officials working at guantanamo like a mantra by those few who are comfortable speaking on camera you see the conditions

under which the detainees live you get to talk to the people who are responsible for garner we make it is transparent as possible and those preferring to remain on identifiable like the majority of officials we were permitted to speak to every week we get media like yourself international media local media whatever and they're welcome to come you know we tell them what we have any journalists workflow at guantanamo starts with a mandatory introduction to media rules the so-called operation security briefing or the material that you guys are gathering to make sure that it abides by our policy here even though transparency is a word brought up by all the personnel we talked to on the ground we as journalists access to detainees aside are asked to be very careful about the shots we filmed all the backdrops and at the end of each day videos are reviewed and any shots deemed unacceptable are deleted this one will be ok because palm trees are not too controversial remind you of any frowned upon seaward like censorship it's in this

series the program established to her car program accomplished with her regulation sorry old video and audio recordings and even sketches are carefully studied cell phones are banned from camps we're not supposed to put anything on facebook or anything like that or you know are even wary about talking about it over the you know anything over the phone the said purpose of these ground rules to protect the safety and security of get more operations to detain easier not to get their vision so we try to photograph them to take down we are warned violations of media ground rules may result in restricted access denial of future visits and or removal from guantanamo bay. people just kind of mislabeled it and i have a call to go for bia just not leading. giving the true picture i mean the only people who knows what goes on get more is os and the detainees and getting the detainees side of what goes on and get most apparently just couldn't be done after an extensive explanation of how exactly we are to film the prisoners the amount of

detainee face time we get a total of one minute and five seconds through a dark glass window the reason we're given out of respect for them and then not using them is as you know. you know. making them some kind of curiosity you know on film a thing like that we don't want to do that despite our requests to not even film but at least witness more real prison or life a high ranking guantanamo admiral convinces us that we actually have a lot more access than we think you're seeing what there is to it to see you know. given the amount of time that you have here to to see if we are as transparent as possible after one minute glimpse at one detainee our schedule is in fact all booked up by their command paper they were taken to the detention camp kitchen to witness how well things were on their bill since we're not really being allowed to close to the detainees this might be the closest glimpse of their life we might be

getting today we're being told the that these are the meals that they're offered on a daily basis. we're also taken to the only local radio station all made up like zombies in the audience military personnel serving at the base do you do anything related to the time of detention camp. like. that to the public media because. you know there's enough journalists over there covering that music sports and talk radio pure infotainment rains here. and so we learn there we're not the only ones simply being treated to a show and party one ton of cuba. the detainee moore's claim visiting that clients is much harder when the cameras are old advocate's masa rayna told us that was one no ones that it's when they inmates out to watch. the wolves and regulations that are governing the military commissions are incredibly

confining for defense counsel they're subject to very strict protective orders that require them to keep classified information classified so for example the lawyers representing the men accused in us for the men now call the nine eleven five. they are seeking to disclose facts of their clients torture to various international tribunals and they're unable to do that right i mean there's there's no doubt the u.s. government the gauged in torture it's a it's it's publicly known it's all right and they're on able to do that because they can't share what their clients have told them with these outside decision makers and fact finders. report is available on our website it's also part of our special series on going time of day which is airing week on.

we're now it's like two active camp at guantanamo where patients are forced to have to come after him out of our strike never turn world's attention to the place that sometime jobs gulag of our times. and so ahead for you based on how an american spy fleg the f.b.i. investigates a russian diplomat believes the bait recruiting goals and leaves mosco puzzled over a cold war era allegations but officials say they have nothing to do with the real . trade with the west sound of eastern ukraine is that what they call suarez is at times to sit on two chairs the face

the trouble in search of a song. we've got the future of coverage. this is actually welcome back see where is recovering from an almost nationwide blackout overnight twenty huge chunk of the country including the compas all was left without electricity for several hours the power outage reportedly followed by a rebel attack on damascus was blamed on a strike on a key gas pipeline middle east correspondent paul is here trying to sort through the violence of the night. the capital city of damascus was plunged into darkness there were also huge parts of aleppo in the north and the west of the country that

were in blackout after rebels hit a gas pipeline not far from damascus that supplies power to the south of the country by all accounts this does seem as if it was a well planned orchestrated effort that had been in the making for quite some time there was also a military checkpoint in the west that came under fire there were casualties there there was also a church in the town of dumas that was bombed this is in addition to the two main squares in damascus these are the squares of my yard and our best men and they were also hit by mortar shells not i visited the town of young walk which is on the front line from where i filed this report. and this is young walk south damascus ten months ago it was home to one point two million palestinians today tempest seemed to remain the price of world peace now it's acutely here where it's divided

families and pitted brother against brother. lee betrayed and we do not trust them anymore eight days ago abu movie and his wife came home for ten long months they'd lived on the streets not once giving up the hope they'd return this is what way to them and the world come we are coming to kill you bashar scribbled on the walls. whatever happens i will not leave my house again i would like to destroy the walls and build them again it could not be worse than this for one year syria's palestinians managed to stay out of the conflict but the infiltration of foreign fighters with big dreams and even bigger promises of money forced the residents of young men to choose sides and take up arms against people they know their whole lives. from friends fighting on the. decide they're not friends anymore the ones who displaced us from our house and destroyed our homes are not

our friends. with. on each day a bomb relieves to fight them but not before he struck furniture high against the windows to protect his family from snipers life inside these bullet riddled boards is as dangerous as it is outside his two sons as vulnerable as their mother every time the father walks out the door but it's always a painful fave whirl all movie carefully helps her husband prepare for battle she knows he needs to go but each time he leaves behind the same an onset question. every day when he says goodbye i wonder if you will come back or not like when he got injured he didn't come back i want to find him in hospital there are a lot of men like him and women like me but not a lot of fighters have bought their families back to yarmulke the snipers are in shooting range and three days earlier shrapnel from

a bullet blinded up to maurice left eye but the thirty three year old doesn't have a choice he has nowhere else to move his family and while the southern part of your milk is still in the hands of the rebels his home or what remains of it has been freed by palestinians who like other more we are fighting alongside the syrian army and. when i go to the battlefield my mind is always with my family and i hope i will come back safe to them because they care of them and i pray that if i get more tired they will find tender people to look after america. the frontline is near two streets away but for and his comrades the battle hits closer to home each time they take an aim to secure the streets for the families often it's a neighbor friend and sometimes even a brother who's pointing the gun back at them point of c r t yeah look syria

the countrywide power outage came while the international inspectors are in syria overseeing the destruction of the country's chemical weapons and some x. those believe the blackout was a rebel attempt to disrupt. the attack in damascus today the shutdown of damascus the power outage this is a terrorist act and right now john kerry's very happy chuck hagel is very happy president obama is happy this is what their policy is is to fund and finance and coordinate through the joint special operations command and the cia this kind of terrorist actions against the people of syria they may be partly designed to carry out a disruption of the weapons inspections because of the weapons inspectors have had all kinds of trouble getting into areas that are under the rebels control where chemical weapons we nisshin seem to have been used there's been lots of near misses mortar attack shell means and other kinds of military. disruptions of the

weapons inspectors program and much of it and i think almost all of it is coming from the rebel side because perhaps they have something to hide. and now about how website employees in japan square polled this issue and you get blunt securing new storage space for highly radioactive water as the scientists bracing itself all time in the coming twenty twenty four hours. and the toy that led to a tragedy california cops should have had a thirteen year old boy carrying an assault rifle that turned out to be a dummy and told the story online. they have been. a suspect the russian official who had a cultural exchange program in the last of recruiting spies but then going investigation has a world and both moscow and the man himself and the group is kind of joins us now live with more details how they go so is that another spy scandal or do we know so

far well during the course during the course of the last twelve years this russian corporal extreme center in washington sent around one hundred thirty americans to russia fully being for their troops including mules and accommodation and now the reports in the us mainstream media suggest that the f.b.i. is suspect its head you resides of of recruiting agents or more of these travelers who include governmental aides and senior business executives and others and reportedly the f.b.i. has been interviewing these people some journalists managed to speak with some of them as well in fact they said they saw nothing suspicious on these trips and hoped that this program would continue in the future and your results of himself has also made a statement some kind of witch hunt first to young boys and girls that have gone to russia demanding to be told what's the how's and why's there trying to instill a fear of russia in american society. we've also heard from the russian foreign

ministry which said that these reports have nothing to do with the reality and from the russian embassy in washington was that such heavy accusations have to be backed by some concrete evidence otherwise the reports are merely an echo of the cold war era which does nothing positive for the relations between the two states. he's eager piskun all live from central moscow you go thank you very much indeed for that update. east to west which is best for ukraine that could be decided today the countries need to meet with president putin and valerie's care is eyeing a free trade agreement with the e.u. despite already having one with russia and other former soviet republics. also now on what's at stake for. the funeral of independence this is how ukraine's movement but i'd describe the him and signing over an association agreement between kiev and the european union. our government doesn't tell the truth about what will really

case in farah why. has the notion of international justice lost its appeal so quickly while to discuss that i'm now joined by the former chief prosecutor of the international criminal court luis moreno champa mr moran our comp i really appreciate your being here on worlds apart it's a great honor to have you here my pleasure the first time i have a long interview brush i like well you know it was extremely interesting to me to see how the tone of your statements on syria changed over the last few years and you started out by on equivocally calling assad a war criminal but most recently you seem to be a bit more ambivalent and you seem to recognize that crimes are committed by both sides i wonder if you had the power to prosecute bashar al assad now what would the charges be. that i think we have to understand the war is remembering the two months of this conflict. when this thing happened

that suddenly you see must've killings and crimes the interest from the is what about that should make some efficient prevention and what happened is normally in the past the intervention was bombing or nothing being or do negotiation in conflict that you can on the sheet that's why we have to be creative and with that fine war is a proper way to solve this conflict that is idea just about more conflict i think your mandate at least in the past was prosecuting crimes and i think just last year you're very very straightforward about calling assad a criminal for what you called indiscriminate killings of civilians now of course this is something that many other countries like russia and china would dispute that i still would like to press you on this point what do you think the crimes being committed in syria specifically by the north and sorry i'm sorry i never

mention one you cannot have one war them from me talking about syria i say nothing nothing because we as a prosecutor of the international court we are not use external syria now but it was very late i'll tell you holly down the you you started commenting on syria believe it was just last year and i believe we have a sound bite to prove the point when you gave the interview to c b c the economic canadian broadcaster and you actually called for referring assad to by the un security council to the i.c.c. and what you sad baghdad is that the i.c.c. should act in conjunction with nato let's hear exactly what your had to say back then suppose the security council referred the case the international criminal court and supposed international court preparing by minigames assad because he's a commander in chief and there i.
