further measures could take place another clause that we're hearing is going to be removed from this document is the arms embargo that russia has also been opposing but from what we understand what will continue to remain in a new text is a support of a facilitation of a political transition now of course they have to again say that some of the details are still largely up in the air some diplomats are saying that a vote could come very shortly as soon as on friday others are saying that it's going to take a little more time monday possibly we will just have to wait and see exactly how events play out the security council in the days to come. well there are still ahead for you this hour the electrolyze how web cams will be watching over the upcoming presidential elections in russia and the move for ultimate transparency. to protestors have reportedly been shot dead by police in the egyptian city of

wrote about you for the hatred i had for you if only i had known my son worked for british intelligence i would not talk about his death he could easily have been shot as a double agent betrayers should be shot what else can i add to this. the u.-turn vaulters says came when his sons we doe marina litvinenko revealed to the british media that her husband had worked for m i six further details followed when a newspaper launched its own investigation alexander litvinenko was receiving a retainer of around two thousand pounds a month from the british security services at the time he was murdered it is understood that sir john scarlett now head of m i six and was based in moscow was involved in recruiting him to the secret intelligence service. at first by turnitin and cole like many others claimed his son had been poisoned with polonium two ten on putin's order the former f.s.b. officer and fierce critic of the kremlin alexander litvinenko spent twenty three

a real treasure for them there are very few people who would say as many horrible things about putin as i did. in two thousand and eight but the only thing uncle flat russia for sanctuary needs healing is settled in the sleeping quiet town of sinegal it offered to new anonymous life the man claimed putin was his number one enemy so hiding in europe he believed was the only safe solution today was the only thing and co is still afraid to open this door not because of putin though but because of his landlord to whom hill has a lot of money this miserable life has made him a slave of his sanctuary. but surely the namco sold everything he had in russia to come to eataly he opened a small business several years ago but it went bankrupt things got worse after the seventy three year old had buried his wife but her now fears her casket could be removed because he hasn't paid the cost of a burial plot and it's been months since the electricity was shut off to his flat

he has lost forty euros went on a gas canister and that is gone to. this is how i wound myself a book that i open this door to let the southern wind inside. there is east and there is russia here my homeland are for tourists i want to go home to russia. i don't want to stay here. it sit in the church over our t. sity ghalia eataly. well coming your way in the program learning how to be a community this isn't belgium are divided over the coolies and that fundamentalist group that's proposing radical move was. the german chancellor is in china asking for help an investment for the euro and it seems she

might get it has china's prime minister says the country is now considering contributing to european rescue funds and going work always on an official visit to beijing where she's been trying to reassure the chinese about the economic situation in europe and also would like to see beijing support the western position on iran and syria china gets ten percent of its oil from iran the german chancellor has been calling on china to buy more crude in order to support an bargain and to use its influence to persuade tehran to abandon any possible nuclear weapon when it's more on the course visit with david bossie director of the china europe international business school in shanghai thank you for joining us today now china has criticised the sanctions against iran so what chance does i'm going merkel have of actually convincing the chinese not to import more oil from their. well i think it is very important to distinguish to use shoes on the goal and objective that is to shine out the agree very much nobody wants nuclear

proliferation in the middle east but did these agreement ease about the myth though the approach in china is not. sanctions and i believe that china we not reduce its import off oil from iran it doesn't mean that china is going to increase its import of oil from iran but i think china we use its influence in the middle east a way which is compatible with the five month old principles of china as the progress you know meet the china even the easing a very strong body position in the middle east goes. to tel aviv of course israel china has very good relations resume has it was right but china has also good relations we around saw china. a power broker in the middle east yes you mention the middle east there what about syria that i mean china has

strongly opposed foreign interference there but now that the west seems to have taken a somewhat softer starts i suppose or syria at the u.n. could we see china support a new resolution. this is a little bit early to do del because things are on going on but again you know you really see china. going through dialogue. to try a constructive role in the in the region but i think that china in any case we all sort of for the month off and on in different in this part of the world i think china is using a kind of subtle power we should transcend hard and soft power and but in any case it is not in the interest of china to see instability in the middle east so again china and we have

a constructive role and of course. hoping china will make a concrete pledge to invest in the euro bailout fund all the problems they've been having is that likely. i think first of all i would like to say to repeat that these visit of made america extremely significant significant because of course it is a meeting between the largest economy in europe germany and the largest economy in the world china but the timing is also extremely important we have all the signals which indicate that europe the euro zone ease going out of the financial crisis and. comes at the very moment in china an ad the same time which does reinforce the moment i mean europe china repeats that. brought the euro the euro zone and the european union and why because china simply wants to

leave in a murder people are world of course for economic reasons because the e.u. read the first trade partner of china but fundamentally it is a political position at. the object of china who wants to lead in the most people or world and there is no murder people a world without success for you and there is no success for you without a strong eurozone but again when jobs are prime minister wen jiabao repeated very clearly yesterday in a press conference that china. will move to do so in these issue of the eurozone through. financial stability and make it make any of them stay. in europe at the moment so given that then they would have to make some big concessions to china then very briefly i don't thing so i don't think for the moment it is about our china can. to

solve the euro of depth crisis what madam miracle east trying to achieve or so east to i tried chinese best. in germany of course but even the clout because this is one of the major business story of becoming used china as investment outside of china china is going to invest more than one trillion you where it's outside of china in the coming decade in europe needs a little bit of investment ok we have to leave it there david gossett of the china europe international business school in shanghai thank you for joining us thank you . it's a question of identity versus integration shari'a islamic group in belgium is under fire for views which local people say are too extreme and which other local muslims feel threatened by what is test our city reports. bearded wearing

a camouflage jacket and constantly surrounded by men fought a belt is hard not to notice he heads the islamic fundamentalist group shiria for belgium in september the group opened the country's first sharia court in outward to mediate domestic disputes among muslims with our own system our own beliefs are all no manner of handling things if you want to accept it accept it if you don't that's your problem but there is judgement day if you if you're a muslim you will go to paradise if you are this will leave or you will go to hell . any further controversy may have ended there if that was all there is to it but videos such as these. have caused outrage. the freedom of speech and. the hatred incitement to violence towards. leadership. and he. said. i

should be. i should be killed because i am an enemy of islam in january and work or prosecutor recommended two years in prison and a fine of five hundred fifty euros for about a seven for inciting hatred and violence against muslims that's in addition to fourteen police court convictions and criminal convictions for robbery defamation and violence if you would. just a few people maybe a dozen of people maybe two dozen of people dressed like me. middle age. and i mean photography. and come on this is a joke yet it has its repercussions on other muslims. this kind of group of course they are moved lives but they have no religious background it is a minority perhaps that in search of an identity but that's ignorance and the

method they are using it's scary and it's freaking people out. unfortunately this kind of group shows about image of islam and most muslims condemn this kind of ideology this is a misinterpretation of her secret. muslims comprise about six percent of the belgian population one of the highest rates in europe and is expected to rise to more than ten percent by two thousand and twenty muslim or live in belgium. they are belgium from the region turkish. a rigid first prickly nation of. muslim radical groups such as those of the islamic fundamentalists comprise a minority and it's not representative of the muslim community in belgium nevertheless politicians analysts and even the belgian muslims themselves acknowledge that the problem is what these groups symbolize radicalization the process its spread and the allure of extreme views. just are still here r t

brussels. or some world news in brief for you now the sound two people including a three year old girl have been wounded by israeli airstrikes on the gaza strip both were injured after one of the strikes hit a house in the town and. five other attacks targeted several tunnels what israel claimed was a weapons one affection facility the strikes happen only hours after the u.n. chief visited the controlled territory bit to kickstart is very palestinian peace talks. at least six people have been killed and more than twenty injured in colombia after a group using pickup trucks who made moved to the police station thirty five officers were inside the building when the attack occurred time the recount comes just a day after a motorcycle packed with explosives blew up a police station and if you have to marco killing eleven people police blamed that attack on the left wing rebel bloc. the cold snap sweeping across

eastern europe has now claimed the lives of more than one hundred thirty people snow was two meters high in parts of serbia going around eleven thousand villages stranded in remote parts of the country sixty three people have died in ukraine of learning of the temperatures plummeted to minus thirty degrees celsius food shortages have been reported in the capital here with trucks able to transport supplies. the watchful eyes of webcams are about to be set up across russia ahead of next month's presidential elections the move was proposed by more than ten thousands of people took to the streets late last year calling for transparency in the election process. has a story. inch after inch mile after mile big brother is preparing to cast his eyes on polling stations as the massive campaign to install web cameras is in full swing across the entire nation sometimes but i think if

anything i ask the central electoral commission to install web cameras at all polling stations across the country so that everyone can watch online what's happening there almost twenty four hours a day so when they go we want them there. the idea was put forward following the biggest protests in russia since the collapse of the u.s.s.r. with tens of thousands demanding fair elections so wiring up over ninety thousand polling stations is the scale and around a half of a billion us dollars is the price tag. the system is not be made only for one day we hold this project want only develop elections acknowledges but will also help modernize telecommunications infrastructure across the entire country. all cameras will be feeding the videos the film to local digital storage facilities after computer processing will be then sent to seven large storage and distribution

centers via cable radio and satellite these centers will then broadcast the information to several web portals it's estimated that all together the cameras will film and broadcast four hundred ninety years of video information in good quality however there is still down to this technology will help make the vote more transparent. you'll get a story i'm sure the observer is going to be able to check to advance if these cameras work or not. everyone knows about cameras in supermarkets but this still doesn't stop robberies from happening. it's every ballot box will be monitored by two cameras one with the general view and another with a close up of the slot there are many ways to rig a view and the cameras don't provide a hundred percent guarantee against them but using them should still make it much more difficult to stuff boxes of course there is nothing new. or web cameras.

using them to monitor elections on such a scale is a first for any nation and regardless of the success of the idea everyone will be able to monitor the vote online and not to mention no one is against having more real life observers on the spot the war is going on r.t. moscow well i just ahead the people of elves cross-talk this time looking at the coming november election based on the us before that katie business up. hello welcome to the business program here and i'll say russell isn't a parrot of political transition delegate so the troika dialog economic forum in moscow have been discussing the reforms the country needs to put in place following the march presidential election now in a culture of art is at the event of business. also censoring the political cycle so

its importance is the kurds at the moment forming in its understand wants needs is needs to be made in the support will be one of the things i asked all the president or someone in this already offering their opinions and suggestions in support now all those are now joined by some people here. don't think much linking him in the first post i. don't. want. that they don't. think all the solutions are actually listed in the prime minister's article and didn't with us last month they were here to say that russia should move away from state capitalism improve the governance employ people systemic corruption build an independent judiciary all of that will help to improve business and climate in the basement climb and bring back the capital that has led the country in bringing new foreign direct investment in i'm sure russia russia is
