uprising they are ready to defend peace and order although they seem confident they won't have to. this wave would never reach us but if it does our party is ready to provide help to law enforcers we would set up roadblocks and not let anyone get inside crimea our party a lotus capable of mobilizing up to five thousand people. we're not talking about seceding from ukraine yet we're talking about restoring constitutional order but we would never accept any orders from illegitimate bodies of power created as the mind on for a better understanding of what exactly happening in ukraine in terms of its territory we have this map over here the parts of the country marked in yellow the ones where the local administrations have already been overthrown the red ones the contest the the territories. i think once where riots and mass uprisings are still taking place and the blue ones where nothing is happening at all there's no revolt no uprising at all and you can see for yourself this is pretty much

a fifty fifty division such strawman dragon is in between the two sides of the country have great concerns which had previously seemed unthinkable that ukraine might follow yugoslavia scenario and break apart any sort of splits in the area we could happen within the next weeks must be described as quite possible because government wouldn't have enough forces. probably in two parts. the two different times on thursday the opposition declared a truce with the government for seventy two hours but with rioters in kiev again burning tires and hurling burning projectiles at the police hardly anyone in ukraine feels that the crowds are listening to anyone right now alexey version of ski odyssey reporting from kiev in ukraine and the country's leadership has said it's ready to continue crisis talks with the opposition and has offered several concessions president yet a college has promised to reshuffle the government and to release those arrested
8:06 am
during riots in the capital earlier this week and while the plan has failed to appease the demonstrators in kiev officials to the east of the capital are still enjoying strong support or just fall asleep or reports from donetsk. most of the east and south of this country is supportive of the government and the president i'm here in the city of donetsk where there has been a pro-government rally happening just a short distance behind me and emotions here are running high there have been various speeches where people have been saying we support poisoned gena coverage that he has been truth and justice on the inside and that they will not let him down i've been speaking to a number of people who turned out one particularly emotional woman told me that she came today because this is a fight for her children and grandchildren one of the accusations many here have been leveling at the protestors in kids that firstly they're small in number they do not represent the country and say can be that they believe powers in the waste and the united states are actually paying people to come to the streets and rejoice
8:07 am
the concerns. and the group of foreign there should not be deciding the fate of our country is the people who are to decide. that a lot of what i think this unrest is spade for by the west to break ukraine is united states. are the ones that will see that i think more people are supporting the government but they're working and doing that instead of standing there on my down in addition to this demonstration there's some twenty cities in the east of the country that will today be holding pro-government rallies we're talking about tens of thousands of people who are expected to come to the streets now on the political level the latest word is that president coverage yesterday did agree to concessions and these include on the one hand retiring the head of the city's administration and at the same time reshuffling the cabinet but it doesn't seem as if these seemingly outward stretches of compromise are being met by the

opposition. now the european commissioner for enlargement stefan fuel has called on ukraine to put an end to the violence on the heels of the is a visit to kiev brussels and washington are blaming a government for the chaos and threatening sanctions while largely viewing the protesters as peaceful victims of a police crackdown and ukraine affairs analyst told us that this is an example of what the opposition wants they're trying to force the issue this is this is your typical extortion tactic the whole point is to force the government to react the whole point is to force backwards and the other police forces to confront the protesters and then scream bloody murder oh my god they're killing us they're oppressing us please help look what's happening help us foreign intervention and so on and so forth it is a very basic tactic from the rebellion playbook being implemented throughout the world in georgia and elsewhere in ukraine in two thousand and four of all things so i think the protesters are trying to make a point that they're to ones that decide what gets done and who initiates the violence as evidenced by mr klitschko statement that we will hold him to live until

say they are under attack from the power hungry military this month the majority of the population approved a new constitution that broadened the army's power as it shields the military budget from cuts gives the armed forces the right to approve defense ministers and choice of billions in military courts because the military coup that the always career this kind of. explosions just to get to pick gave to get the justification again it's the people and we believe that these three bombing this morning these three losers this morning. just one to. have more on the more massacres against their positions in the street three years after the uprising which saw the country unite against it it takes a sip egypt is now increasingly divided rather than celebrating a new democracy and much needed change. steeling themselves ahead of more violence

8:19 am
egyptian military it's a very tense atmosphere inside of the country there are many opponents to the military backed regime there was a significant boycott of the best run them elections are just last week and i believe that the tensions are going to grow and as long as the current interim government remains intransigent and wants to continue the requestion of the muslim brotherhood and other forces inside the country who disagree with their rule there is potential for more conflict both in the streets as well as that the type of attacks that we saw earlier yesterday. and are you know calm there are some long awaited good news for anti franken campaigners in the u.k. and on gas furnace scrapping plans to tap into shale deposits in picturesque southern england but now because of public protest against the project find out what made the corporation give up on fracking at the site. plus you as

8:21 am
directly without a mediator the opposition wants the talks to focus on the resignation of president which has been rejected by syrian officials the u.s. and its allies are also calling for regime change but russia which helped set up the geneva two summit says foreign meddling is unacceptable. and says the syrians must decide themselves what to do there is no other way to the it's impossible to introduce some scheme like drawing a list of who leaves and who comes in their place that is social engineering and it never ends well if the task is simply to regime change just as some are trying to do syria could plunge into complete chaos the order must be preserved and there is no other method to do that except to maintain existing institutions. ours has been hearing how the absence of several key syrian and regional power players in geneva two means it will be hard for the conference to yield a breakthrough but there is no military solution to this crisis i think that the

leaders of both sides although it's hard to even say both sides given that there are so many sides right now that i think that all sides recognize that to be true the question is how long is it going to take and how many more people have to die before a real agreement that would include an arms embargo as well as a temporary cease fire can come into effect we can't afford failure but i'm afraid that without iran and without some of the crucial parts of the opposition that a ceasefire will only be partial that. an arms embargo is probably right now out of reach. now more of the world's in the news this hour here on c.n.n. national four more staff have been at the egyptian embassy in libya's capital and that's just a day after an egyptian diplomat was seized there one of the people abducted is said to be a cultural tashi such incidents have increased in recent weeks underlining the
