street with the euro project could it be said the new right is really the right so willing. ukraine's former prime minister and opposition figure head unit to machine co arrives in the capital saying she will run for president after parliament votes to free her from jail and dismiss the head of state. which condemns what he calls a coup in kiev and defines calls to step down he's now in the east of the country where local authorities say they're taking full control of their regions. european mediators that help to broker a crisis deal for ukraine say they will support the new government what admitting the opposition has violated the agreement.

this is r.t. international with twenty four hours a day live from studio center here in moscow so breaking news this hour lawmakers in ukraine have voted to dismiss president viktor yanukovych for crimes against the people now that's the latest ruling by the now opposition dominated parliament. is watching the situation in the capital so what are the latest developments from where you are. well the peace with which have been unfolding here in kiev hasn't changed one bit it hasn't slowed down at all since. the country's former prime minister an opposition leader has been released from jail by the deputies all father paul and then shortly after coming out she pledged to run for office and that could happen very soon since the other thing that the deputies voted on was the date for an early presidential votes according to their plans that is going to happen at the end of may and to also as you just said the deputies of the rada have

dismissed president from his duties basically saying that he knocked him self out of the game by leaving his post also new ministers are being appointed now such as the minister of justice known to be quite a far right figure in fact is being announced that right wing radicals are going to be very present and involved in the country. law enforcement and we're also hearing that now the former justice minister and the minister of tax and revenue as they've been arrested while attempting to flee the country now. is not in kiev has been going around the eastern parts of ukraine that's where he's originally from gathering his supporters he rejects all of the new laws passed by the deputies say saying that he's still the man who is controlling this country and you accusing. basically the protesters of being terrorists and hooliganism. hooligans who have

hijacked power here in the country and now the police in the meantime have stepped over to their side and well here in kiev the city is completely controlled by the opposition now by the protesters and for more about how life here is now here's a report we made a little bit earlier. twenty four hours ago this area was probably among the most high security areas in the whole country the street in front of the president's administration which was going go ahead by several lines of ukrainian alpha swat teams one of the most well trained and loyal security forces in the country and now the situation clearly has changed and so have the gores of this area since this street along with entire city are under the complete control of the protesters and now locals are just coming to see the situation with their own eyes

the fighting has calmed down taking pictures and also just seeing this area since it was also one of the first spots where the first fierce fighting took place back in december and now the police have completely left the city and we've we're getting reports that the president's residence outside of town has also been abandoned by officials and now we'll things are just coming in there and taking pictures of exotic animals at the inside of the president's parents' car collection secret documents and other things which were basically just abandoned as officials fled the city in the meantime the rod has been passing new laws like a hot printing press scores of people are still on my down square on independence square where they're paying the respects to those killed in the violence and are demanding for president to step down so like i said the police is out of the city

pretty much most of the officials are gone the whereabouts of a mere are also unknown and it's now under the complete control of the protesters but the question is how long this format sort of unusual living will be able to continue without officials present here. and only my colleague matt tries to discuss the threat of radicals coming to power with charles shubert who spend some time in ukraine watching the political developments there now let's have a listen to this first that. as long as i live i will fight against jews communists and russian scum now that is an activist from the right sector an organization that will be incorporated with the police according to one of the opposition leaders as a former police officer do you think that someone you'd want joining the ranks of law enforcement i think your question is rhetorical because it's really clear that those kind of people who are advocating if you like the street violence even

yesterday. deep inside one b.b.c. broadcast was an activist being interviewed who said that they didn't want for example in the code which to be tried or anything like this they just wanted him killed the media here and even government figures have started to question the makeup of at least some of these protestors including the fact that as we've seen on our own television screens unavoidably over the last forty eight hours and longer that many of them are heavily armed it's also clear that that i think we can see from the rapid scale of what might be called defections amongst police the neutrality shall we say of the armed services in this or at least the reluctance of the armed services to intervene in what is after all a public order security situation within ukraine can be seen if you like almost as a mutiny it's also clear. there may have been some form of negotiations some sort of activism going on behind the scenes with links with various political groups to the armed forces and perhaps even within the police itself certainly in the west of

ukraine that wouldn't be a surprise meanwhile in the eastern city of homs of local officials loyal to the president have gathered they've declared they're taking control of their respective regions bypassing any rulings coming from kiev. as well. a nation turning to mush starting today local authorities are in charge of all political decisions on the ground in these regions we have to protect our land. the sources of ukraine's eastern and southern regions gathered unheard of for an emergency session and decided that they no longer take orders from kiev while in the capital parliament declare that these people must be brought to justice as separatists we think that the central authorities are paralyzed and that their decisions cannot be considered constitutional well deputies in ca tick of adopt a resolution splitting the country's system of governance their region has recently shown signs of being far from unanimous what happened in kiev left

a local population base divided and dissolution and many fear that radicals from the capital could bring violence in their wake but others condemned the president's agreement with the opposition colonnade surrender the traditional russian region had unocal issues major power base could stumble over the you brokered crisis deal that the head of state signed on friday. i'm shocked and disgusted by the actions of the president i never expected anything like this from him i never thought he'd ever betray the ukrainian people i thought that he'd hold on to the end just like i was city authorities your new government but i'm unhappy because those who want to join the e.u. and they are there back in call i say they're free to do so they can go on and live in the un way to be dealing for their masters or days whereas we're used to being free cherishing our traditions. opposition views which are in the minority here sound surprisingly similar. we are fed up with our government we no longer consider

a young new coach to be our president the party regions are a bunch of thieves they are suffocating the population after deadly clashes in the key of things are heating up here too the man is quickly surrounded by those who don't share his opinion this is fact that he came here from the capitals my done rallies and wants to bring violence with him the man tries to assure everyone that he leaves them hardaker both sides are standing by their repeal today's rally in the center of heart of brought together both supporters of those sources and the opposition and was quite pleased hall but here which recently became a symbol of players for many ukrainians and a source of great fear is less than five hundred kilometers away and no one can guarantee that it's mood of an active will not spread here rich north not see from higher in eastern ukraine. where the areas that are now saying they'll govern

themselves from form the backbone of ukraine's economy now we can see here on this map southern and eastern ukraine comprises ten regions it's home to just over half the country's population over twenty three out of forty five million the territory includes huge areas of fertile land with enormous cultural potential it's also the country's industrial heartland with most of the mines and factories and of course all of the country's ports situated here in the desert region and the crime here. well here with me in the studio is political analyst said you struck him to discuss the developments there in ukraine. the new government has the backing of the u.k. and germany and yet it's being condemned for not sticking to the conditions of that peace deal what do you make of that you're absolutely right if we do commitments we have to stand by and actually this is not what's happening in ukraine you say government but i think the term is confusion in itself because how can you call it

a government still and no one knows who is the government who is in a position and if you go through to the wire services and you see what is reported you'll see that a lot of confusion over that no one really understands what. of course to me it is clear that the. original party the same can cheap and probably ukraine is free to see now is dramatic change are all over the complete political elite and the really new government you're referring to would emerge but of course it will be really an uphill battle for them to handle ovals and women children fee change there's a lot of talk about the east and west do you think in fact we're seeing that don't we in fact say oh yes no you're absolutely right this is a fashionable topic now just to speak about the division between the east and the west are well again the question is still up in the air i don't want to belong to that category of you know this we say in the ukraine would fall apart tomorrow the

scenario seems to be removed but at the same time we should not rule out the idea of for the organization of ukraine and when we say for there is a should we have to explain what is this actually this is. and we can prove to you in the sea in the area of divorce in that type you remember that it would double significant if you mean where the loyalties towards that. would be recognized that's right that's right but at the same time we have to understand that the new government will never go into. chaos and madness they would think all of the balance of the interests of regional political and business elites he failed to do this then of course ukraine me for all of russia. she's returning to kids how significant has she been in a lot of this up to now and will she have a big impact in the future tymoshenko are all bristly is a banner of the of the of the new revolution because of the second edition of the

orange revolution well i think that most probably should emerge as a as a new ukrainian leader as a new president but at the same time this would bring confusion for the opposition camp because those people who might. done but not all of them are for was of too much and so they at one point made few of themselves betrayed a months or so years ukrainian we've seen terrible violence and death in the country and yet now we're seeing protesters guarding government buildings indeed even visiting in a go which is full of presidential compound looking at his collection of cars but we're not seeing them ransacking any of these buildings or looting well that's a good sign that's a good sign probably shows that they they are already realizing that what is at stake is in order to just roll over and the composition of a new government but what is a stake is the future of ukraine probably they understand that the role of this version of european union is a fortune which was trying just to mediate a ukrainian mess so probably they want to show themselves as

a responsible force there's even a second strike and thank you very much for joining us here fairness for you well the u.s. are just state has said washington will put pressure on your position in kiev to comply with the terms of that crisis deal brokered on friday something i've just been talking to so you struck and about however the british and german top diplomats say they will support the new self declared government and these are among the countries that have been wielding their influence in the capital throughout the rest of his or smith reports now from london we've seen slightly surreal things like polish deputies setting up tents on the mikes and making speeches distributing polish delicacies to different test as we've seen the u.s. under secretary of state victoria nuland distributing cookies we hear and we've also seen the left the way indian foreign minister handing out warm love to the protesters in these are rules of the the physical manifestations of this seemingly unconditional. offered to the protesters since the very beginning and in fact up

until recently they've been calling them peaceful protest is and and senshi they they took sides right through the very beginning condemning the authorities and and supporting the opposition seemingly in a matter what it did and then of course they broke it they steal from germany and poland and also seemingly at whatever cost in fact the media's most to get hold of a video of a polish minister rudd is love sikorsky telling an opposition leader you'll all be dead if you don't agree to this deal talking about the possible imposition of martial law and now believe it or not we have this deal in place brokered by france germany and poland but even they have now been forced to admit that the deal isn't working that basically the opposition leaders on sticking to that kind of the side of the deal that their involvement was essentially worthless. they took the

opposition side it hasn't handed in its omes it hasn't stopped using force the barricades to still that the buildings are still occupied and that's despite the police force having pulled out of the center of kiev as we know so well that and postering basically on able to ensure any kind of heat. moxley murder scene electric and international relations and security studies at moscow state university says the mall because playing by its own rules here agreement that was agreed to on friday between the. so close its leaders. the opposition who actually has no control over what might be on mobs are doing at this point who is actually in control on the ground there has been. the deal with greek too has been broken and the congress in hard calls has declared that any decisions taken by. this parliament now have been taken without the participation

of the majority of the party of regions and communist delegates and that any of its decisions are invalid because they have been made under threats of violence and death by the mobs that were literally sieging the parliament and are now in physical control over. well we'll be bringing you the latest evidence of course over the next few hours from ukraine from kiev in the meantime all the latest from the winter olympics that's coming your way after a short break. you know there's a new game. it's called the hunger game. plus longer equals. user on my website name perry coined the phrase it was david cameron who invented the brutal game in which there

are no housing games with hunger games. low cholesterol. depression. sixty. two proof. or you see. those. on. the slopes of sorts. russia takes the men's seven kilometer relay gold and jumps to

the top of the medal rankings as all the details for us. think another golden day for russia here in sochi where twenty four hours or so away from the end of the games and the host nation to the top of the medals table two golds coming on saturday the latest in the biathlon men's relay but only a history was created yet again here in sochi make wild becoming the first snowboarder to win two gold medals in a say. limpid games he ever so narrowly won the inaugural parallel slow i'm not into the gold he'd already won in the giant parallel slalom wild as u.s. born but became a russian citizen in two thousand and eleven after marrying his russian girlfriend who incidentally has a bronze medal to her name in sochi while there was also a bronze medal for russia in the speedskating in the women's perceived in the arena behind me so let's see how all of that affects the very latest medals table and you

can see rochelle the hosts lead the way now with eleven gold medals that total of twenty nine medals overall is a record in the country's modern history norway in second place canada on the usa completes the top four pick to ron was the man of the moment on friday he has won three gold medals in short track speed skating here in sochi on friday he won the five hundred meters before helping russia to gold in the relay and the atmosphere inside the iceberg skating palace was electric an unofficial olympic record was set with the home fronds reaching well over one hundred decibel but they were the only ones who may have had something to shout about if you can explains comedian jimmy kimmel knew that the us media would take the bait when he conspired with keith henson from the us lose team and posted a video of a wolf supposedly wandering the whole ways of her dorm in sochi but even the comedian could not imagine the scale of the media frenzy that followed the

seventeen second clip shows a large canine actually walked off in the hallway and i'm not talking blitzer sitting out from the door outside the world in the olympic village i'm glad you're not in this hallway since got out of there there's a stray dog problem maybe they also have a straight wolf problem you've heard of the wolf of wall street how about the war of the olympic village the wolf so that's not dummies from wall street at the movie thing you know it's not just going. on here it's is the only goal even though. is it still people that's a wolf. well it was a wolf except not in sochi but in a b.b.c. studio in los angeles in a specially constructed for the replica of the athletes' dorm hallway in sochi turns out there is no wealth of sochi we were all duped but that's not the point this fit with the whole the whole paradigm they have created about oh russia is so scary it's so crazy it's pandemonium people running around their heads on fire and so this fit in there and so they loved it they gave it up and it shows how there is

a very small thought paradigm that's allowed on most of our media and the things that paradigm or perfect you think you rugby you do a great job ok i love to do this again would you consider bringing a live bear to the closing ceremonies. yeah let me see right in this kind of right of course going on here it might have as well be bear the media would still bite jimmy kimmel's prank like nothing else has called out the u.s. media on their obsession with finding faults with the sochi olympics. in washington i'm going to shut down arkie the closing ceremony will take place in the fish stadium that you can see behind me more than forty thousand fans will be inside the twenty second the winter olympics and most nondrinkers visited a number of houses in sochi to see how they gearing up for the final week

side transit road to vnukovo report your best way to the heart of moscow. recently swiss voters nearly passed a referendum to put a strict quota of back on immigration switzerland is a relatively small country and some estimate that almost a quarter of the population is made up of immigrants from e.u. countries that is a lot of people and the swiss are worried that the increased foreigners will also mean increased crime rent prices burd the state and erode traditional local culture as modern immigration almost always does this was populations democratic choice to restrict immigration is now actually being blasted by the e.u. brass with threats to cancel bilateral agreements how dare you have a different version of democracy than we in the you have switzerland how dare you i

don't think this event will have much effect on the e.u. bureaucratic machine nothing could make them change their hyper liberal minds but i think the swiss anti immigration referendum will have a huge effect on local populations of countries like germany and the u.k. which are seeing horrible effects of open borders and growing anti e.u. sentiment as i speak i don't like to make predictions by i think a lot of disenfranchised people across the e.u. are going to become quite jealous of the swiss move and demand the same type of changes at home but that's just my opinion. and russia trees being gay is not criminalized there are absolutely no punishment for being gay in russia the only thing that they fall for clearance is spreading information family information on nontraditional sexual behavior what are you going to legislate against couples through swing you know who. you know trade

partners or is it only a certain type of sex that you're legally able to you know it is so why is propaganda you know it's so unclear. welcome to the cuz the report guys are you know there's a new game in town it's called the hunger games housing games plus hunger pains equals the hunger games while a user on my website named andy parry coined the phrase it was david cameron who
