in syria and that. we never rejected supports arabs and so did everything to secure their support for syria i believe the doubs must be united in their statements about a hard time i saw what happened in syria for the expected to spread like an epidemic across other arab countries in order to weaken and now israel and the west can pose their civilization supremacy and values that mindset on us i very carefully follow the signals west wants from us especially in view of the recent events and i must say that in truth they do not wish us well the main blow is now directed at syria as an arm state purposes to enforce a new reality on syria in the interests of the west to force syria into giving up its current position and getting it removed from involvement in the arab israeli conflict couldn't otherwise why would anyone but looking wanting an official calls . to to her . if. steve. if you. exclude. the folks. wealthy british scientists. sometimes the title. markets finance scandals find out what's really h

be and i'd like to say that the situation in libya is completely different from that in syria syria's position has been clearly articulated and the global community is aware of the military forces syria has so even if the west is thinking of intervening we would advise them not to go moreover syria has friends and allies or stand by to you and oppose any kind of intervention in syria as domestically syria is the key to the balance in the middle east which any meddling with this into your face here will drive this region to disaster western countries are well aware of this but have never been asked to keep hating arabs and syria in particular because of the political stand on the arab israeli conflict because of ours the chief wants of success and our progress on the reform struggle through under the leadership of president bashar al assad the two of you what is your assessment of russia's position with regard to events in syria. our data i believe that russia has a very commendable physician of the russian federation performs as tasks of a permanent member of un security council in a

accusation led to mass protests that ended syria's decades long military presence in the country syria like libya is part of an alliance and that the violence is very wide it begins in iran some elements in iraq government are part of the syrian regime has one law in lebanon on how mosques in gaza. some experts warn that if syria becomes too embroiled in the investigation and now break of sectarian violence in lebanon will be almost unavoidable and especially alarming prospect given the spike in the sunni shake clashes of the arab spring presently lebanese authorities have less than a month to execute their arrest warrants and hezbollah leader hassan nasrallah has sworn retribution for anyone who tries to do this. for cross talk our team. ok how i'd like to go to you first since here in beirut this is been going on a long time and there's a number of people that i think used of this crime it happened in two thousand and five first it was being brain down the syrians a number of men were held they were late released then we hear it's hezbollah then people say it's iran and then there ar

and undermines to billet in syria of course the mass media have also done their bit to present syria in an unfavorable light as a country that is hostile towards its own people never in the history of modern syria has the country been attacked the way these armed bands of extremists are doing it syria is in need of reforms and we have had peaceful demonstrations in favor of reforms the syrian government and president bashar al assad responded to the demands of the people but as you may recall every time the government was about to introduce reforms violence surged in the country i witnessed these acts in daraa and other syrian provinces like many other citizens did the incumbent president of syria is committed to reforms and in two thousand he proposed a major program of reforms but events in the region that followed affected the implementation of the reforms gravely the us invasion of iraq and the potential threat that the aggression would sweep over syria after the american government made its intentions clear the turmoil in lebanon and the assassination of the lebanese leader rafi

let's take a look at what's going on in syria how is this situation in syria different from that in rome. that is. as far a serious concern we should carry out an accurate and reasonable analysis of what has been happening in my country iran supports any mass revolutionary option as long as the pursuit legitimate demands as was the case and tunisia egypt yemen or any other country but only on condition that such protests are tilting should be free of foreign interference if iran does not tolerate meddling in other countries internal affairs with regard to its own foreign policies and we maintain the same approach of these of the other players if there are mass protests in syria and their demands are legitimate and will stand by but when we see the deliberate misrepresentation of the syrian people's demands they sternal fortune's as an example and iran and thought it lee condemn such action we see here is a clear picture for novato and serving colonialist interests at present government of syria and particularly president assad had pledged to ensure the citizens' rights and they have deli

unfortunately is going to continue for a little while here because the regime in syria does not seem to believe that it can change it talks about change but it's not doing it they are going to face even a harder time within the next month because the month of ramadan is beginning and that's where everybody would be going to pray not just in the daytime but in the evening and throughout the night and this is the time that there will be any police . in the demonstrations both day and night for the regime in syria seems to think it can contain it by the use of force is not doing so and less there is this change . it's going to continue the bloodshed unfortunately and this is the price that is being paid by the syrian people and this is the prize journeys became paid by revolutions because they really shouldn't require this this bloodshed but at the same town the interference of the outside world in my view can be counterproductive unless it is that proper rather than just making peace while statements like for instance the usa would decide whether the president of syria has next in the

a libyan-style intervention is not l likel but germany intends to keep syria on the security council agenenda. >> it is scandalous t that the security council still has not strongly condemned the regime. the best thing would be sanctions, of course. the regime must be politically isolated. we cannot really intervene. it would be morere difficult. it is different from libya. >> libya is a constant issue and is likely to remain so until gaddafi has been dealt with. >> gaddafi is indicted by the internationanal crinal court. when he is no longer in power, the international community will examine what it can do in libya. >> in the antime, the debate goes on. germany wants to help t the security council prepare for the post-khaddafi era to ensure therere is no power vacuum. the reputation was dented when it abstaineded on the security council of be e a relution in march. >> germany has really been in the fore of extending the responsibility to protect people, especially on protecting civilians. abstaining in that kind of situation was sending a difficult signal. >> germany had pushed hara

syria hands so even if the west is thinking to be seen we would advise them not to syria is the key to the balance of the middle east and eventually the symptom is here to drive this region to disaster western countries are well aware of this have never been asked to keep hating arabs in syria in particular was a little startling i was really kind of it because of our success progress on the reform struggle to under the leadership of gaza. what happened in syria really expected to spread. across other our countries in order to weaken israel in the west of what you post there civilization supremacies values that remind us very carefully all of the signals west wants from especially recently and i must say that they do not wish as well. and you can see the full interview with syria's deputy foreign minister in about twenty minutes time so stay tuned for that. passenger ferry with one hundred seventy three people on board has sunken the revolving rushes republic of tatarstan one person is known to have died but they're also conflicting reports as to how many people are missing the vess

see wanted to answer the war at the same time with libya and syria. was made public by john bolton in two thousand and two the plan was passed over to france and britain who decided to bring it to life in november last year and secondly it was necessary to verify whether in a town of a coup had been made before that a coup that could be organized by france or britain the attempt failed in october. after this field town another coup was planned in this is just killing all the heads of the libyan national congress if they got together in one police during a big celebration that you're there to feel though because the situation in the region changed after the revolutions in tunisia and egypt. at that moment france and britain decided to carry out our operation and present this could sound as if people's rebellion. was the aim of the regime change reckon on going to every member of a coalition pursues their own particular goal it is necessary that everyone should be interested in the war however in terms of basic goals it is worth noting changes that have

before your eyes for syria there is another question because syria is a state with historic egypt position in the middle east what is interesting in this affair used to see that the operation in syria and the operation in libya have been designed exactly the same way and should normally have ended. with the same war on both sides but they let go of syria and i think that some states rushing colluded thought better of it and prevented the course of those operations so that is why at the moment there is no war in syria you know if some western leaders repeat almost every day that it is necessary to go to war one of the characteristics of the system mr have islamist extremists on the spot but if they knew and works no one is being those a little qaida and i use this term on purpose is there are some chiefs of those units we see here who are known for having fought in afghanistan in bosnia herzegovina in chechnya you know iraq not in syria or libya some of them in the meantime had in the teen four years in guantanamo by the united states and brought on the spot to continue to fight so here the
