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 at the mine . 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 territories the pink ones where riots and mass uprisings are still taking place and the blue ones where nothing is happening at all there is no revolt no uprising at all and you can see for yourself this is pretty much a fifty fifty division such strong antigun 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 in any sort of splits in the area
9:05 am
which could happen within the next weeks beast. must be described as quite possible because government wouldn't have enough forces. needed probably in two parts. we've got two different cars on thursday the opposition declared a truce with the government for seventy two hours but with rioters into you 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 reporting from kiev in ukraine the country's leadership has said it's ready to continue crisis talks with the opposition and has offered several concessions president yanukovych has promised to reshuffle the government and to release those arrested during riots in accountable earlier this week while the planets fail to p. is the demonstrators in kiev officials to the east of the capital are still enjoying strong support our disposal ear reports from danske. most of the east and
9:06 am
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 they have been various speeches where people have been saying we support poisoned gena coverage that he has the truth and justice on the inside and that they will not waiting 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 power is in the waste and the united states are actually paying people to come to the streets and rejoice because syrians only need of say it all and a 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 as the
9:07 am
united states. the much the worse 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 we shuffling the cabinet but it doesn't seem as if these seemingly outward stretches of compromise all being met by the opposition now the european commissioner for enlargement stefan phil has called on ukraine to put an end to the violence on the heels of his visit to kiev brussels and washington are blaming the government for the chaos and threatening sanctions while largely viewing the protesters as peaceful victims of
9:08 am
a police crackdown and ukraine affairs analyst told us that this is exactly 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 another 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 the 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 the negotiations are over but we have the power to actually go on strike and initiate attack and he's he's directly gainsaying his foreign supporters who are saying the government is responsible for this it's not it's a protesters well some breaking developments just seen here on r t international
9:09 am
the local parliament in the city which is in western ukraine has declared that it no longer recognizes ukraine's state rada the country's parliament and its proclaimed one of the opposition's makeshift councils a legitimate power instead evolve administration office was one of the first cities to be taken over by protesters as the unrest started spreading from the capital to other regions while ukrainian interior ministry has accused the protesters of ignoring truce agreements so had to calm for all the details and real time updates on the situation there. well here on our terror national we are receiving reports that four people have been killed in clashes between pro islamist protesters and police in cairo meanwhile on to here square supporters of the regime are staging
9:10 am
a mass rally to mark the third anniversary of the twenty eleven uprising the build up to the anniversary was marred by a series of deadly explosions across cairo with six people killed on friday dozens more were injured in a four blast which included a powerful car bomb outside a security have waters al qaida lang group has admitted to being behind the carnage and is warning civilians to stay away from police buildings the attacks have sparked public anger against the outlawed muslim brotherhood even though it denies anger over fears supporters held rallies across egypt which the standard into violence and friday with at least fifteen people killed in clashes with police are just bell truth is in cairo. three is on from the two thousand and eleven revolution in egypt was supposed to be celebrating instead deadly bomb blasts rocked cairo targeting police offices as the country descends into chaos gyptian a dangerously split between those who backed the military and those who support
9:11 am
ousted muslim brotherhood president mohamed morsi crowds of people gathered at the science of the bomb blast which ripped open the facades of egypt's main police headquarters in cairo the people here like many in government's been saying them is above the heads and say these events attack on the state's office they ousted islamist president mohamed morsi with anger mounting there is likely to be a harsher crackdown on the islamist group. exit the brotherhood they are to blame for this the terrorists one to break the country in half some are afraid to leave their homes but most are more determined than ever to go to the streets against the brotherhood for the revolution anniversary the military installed government accuses the brush. ahead of being behind a rising insurgency and the spike in terror attacks the media has observed the scheme announced by the brotherhood at the meetings abroad who want to disable the country's political road and disturb the referendum on the constitution the muslim brotherhood is just a tool our enemies the foreign element that controls these tools all egyptian
9:12 am
people know about this but hundreds of brotherhood supporters are in jail and they 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 the military coup that the always career this kind of. explosions just to get picky to get the topic is justification again it's the people and we believe that these three bombing this morning these three losers this morning. just one too. have mourning the more massacre as against their patience in this street three years after the uprising which saw the country unite against a dictatorship egypt is now increasingly divided rather than celebrating
9:13 am
a new democracy and much needed change egyptians steeling themselves ahead of more violence. for cairo. while the twenty eleven revolution and almost three decades of authoritarian rule by hosni mubarak after more than a year after initial military rule the islamist back candidate mohamed morsi was elected president and his government pushed through and new constitution criticized for being over influenced by sharia law a popular uprising against morsi led to him being forced out by the army a year later and the military then launched a crackdown on the muslim brotherhood with thousands of supporters killed in the us . pressed the brotherhood was then declared a terror group well to discuss now how far egypt's come since the revolution let's cross to the heart of every he's a caro based journalist thank you so much mrs every for joining us here on r t international to discuss the situation in your country three years on after the revolution in your view what is there to celebrate.
9:14 am
well i have said my opinion a couple of days ago in one of my articles and i said that egypt has very little to celebrate on this day in fact we have a lot of people to mourn we have a lot of explosions that rocked the city yesterday and this basically should cancel any form of celebration that was intended before there. was a precedent in the history for militancy in egypt even through the nineteen ninety's no single city was hit by four. operations in one day let alone the fact that the capital security deployed. and followed by three more bombings in different parts of the city the day before we had five officers killed. and today morning we woke up to the news and from military chopper targeted in north sinai there is absolutely nothing to celebrate the country is more polarized
9:15 am
than ever we can see the signs of hostility and divisions mandate of the. sector and yes the community and indeed we see a lot of violence and a lot of unrest in the streets of egypt and the situation is volatile there and as you just mentioned earlier briefly that there is the doesn't seem to be much unity among people but just how deep are those divisions that you started mentioning here between those who support the army and those who do not. so for those divisions could be contained but what's happening is we have we have a major ground for the pro-government media inciting violence against anyone who is not inducing the country gee we have a whole population here in this incitement every day we have the muslim brotherhood who are definitely guilty for a lot of things they have they have done or did not have power but that does not go
9:16 am
. violence and civil strife well you know the muslim brotherhood did not answer as well in this ability for the violence you know they did the group denies the responsibility for the violence so why is the public then blaming them for all the well. well in fact in fact the muslim brotherhood has never publicly and straightforwardly denied responsibility for violence in fact the muslim brotherhood have been caught on several cameras attacking opposition protesters there have been several cases of detaining opposition shutting down legal channels during their time of course it's not as much as the violence we are seeing things since the ouster of mohamed morsi but the muslim brotherhood approach is also making them look very innocent the conspiracy theories they keep blaming the government for staging those bombings in it's the portman's which is absolutely nonsense but of
9:17 am
the same time opposite the opposite side which is the regime and the regime loyalists and the pro regime or protesters are not peaceful themselves and are as hostile as the muslim brotherhood i mean we have of course when we talk and legally we have to we have to approach those explosions those militant attacks through evidence. which is the only thing that we like now. without evidence and without judicial movement into those cases well you know i just looking at the situation in our country and as you mentioned the attacks earlier we know that in the past two days there have been at least five blasts and the city and what is said to be tight security what does this actually all mean i mean does it mean that the security despite being tied as it's being sad is not enough and what can be done to tighten it to make sure that violence does not happen. i mean if we're talking about militancy the militant
9:18 am
groups and the terror the planned terrorist attacks those should be apparently the current government is incompetent in dealing with the with the ongoing terrorism we have seen bombings over the past six months and over the past three years in general i don't see any effective means of real. and with it of course the military has done a great job in sinai but that's a completely different story geographically politically and socially but on the general level if you have the security department off the capitol in broad daylight that means a lot of things that means that the government is somehow incapable of protecting itself. in the way it should be protecting itself and what we should be stopped now and what the government should be working tirelessly to stop is inciting violence you know why didn't those gaps between sectors of the community and moving the country forward towards a phase of civil strife which we have seen example reality that mr sheppard how
9:19 am
realistic is that. i'm sure how realistic is that one of the things that you just mentioned that the government should do to make sure that stability returns to the country and you know the rate at some of them so how realistic is the implementation of all of these things. i mean the government is not doing any of it i don't see the government as i don't see the government as facing those violators who give themselves the right to attack other people i don't see the government giving guests clear clear text of what is happening if you blame the muslim brotherhood for an attack without any investigation by the media frenzy that's happening we hear about on the security source is blaming the muslim brotherhood every other day but so far we have not seen any legal documents giving evidence so who is behind those terrorist attacks
9:20 am
major factories they're running out of here but i think it's so much for sharing your views and here with us on the situation in your country egyptian three years on after the revolution. now around six thousand fewer is demonstrators swarmed into piano and proud asked an amnio ball at tannadice by europe's leading far right politicians holocaust survivors are among the strongest critics of a controversial event well who reports from austria. beginners academic a ball courts protest and courts of a sea everywhere because of the names on its guest list it's become a gathering of far right political leaders from across europe it's hosted by austria's freedom party and for my guests include marine le pen francaise national front leader as well as far right wing politicians from belgium germany and italy several thousand protesters hit the city streets to mom doing the ball is and once

9:22 am
crisis in europe the socialist or the social democratic parties they did not have to ride on susanto christ's land along comes right or right wing extremist parties and they have very easy on this is protest organizers say it's far right political leaders the said to be holding secret meetings planning on how to build will not surgeon popular support but they have been uniting ahead of the. european parliamentary elections in may but while they're inside the palace as the saying goes they're only going to be one saying so they're right and the diverse crowd that's represented here this evening is determined to show that it's not happy about it probably boycott you see vienna. farai movements have been no winning support across crisis stricken europe as more cash strapped citizens turn away from traditional parties and governments in austria and of freedom party made

back this is or to international syrian government officials and their main political rivals have met face to face for the first time the talks of the ongoing geneva two conference were brokered and led by international envoy lakhdar brahimi while the opposing syrian delegations did sit of the same table have not yet started negotiating directly without a mediator the opposition wants the talks to focus on the resignation of president asif which has been rejected by syrian officials and u.s. and its allies are also calling for regime change but russia would help set up the geneva two summit just for in a meddling is unacceptable. syrians must decide themselves what to do there is no other way it's impossible to introduce some scheme like drawing a list of who leaves and who comes in their place if that is social engineering and it never ends well if the task is simply to regime change as some are trying to do syria could plunge into complete chaos order must be preserved and there's no other
9:26 am
method to do that except to maintain existing institutions it was wired 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 you know a break for. 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 but 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 technology update is next here in our to international and for our
