Operations in several parts of the country 2 people dead only yesterday shot dead and people from the rural areas which is the base of alice saying that they will come to the to the past to the capital to join protesters now the. Minister a government minister after them what do you have said that there are people infiltrated from other countries fueling the fueling these protests however something that we cannot independently verify or confirm in the meantime protesters are saying that they will continue to focus that they want the military out of the streets and they want the immediate resignation. Of the interim president and what are the. Members saying about all this right now. Well house and the things are getting much more complicated on that front because after midnight last night a group of legislators from the mosque party were able to go inside the National Assembly behind me and they had a session they still have the majority in parliament and they named a new congress 1st didnt they name a new Senate President and they say that they will name a new interim president this former president ever what alice is speaking from mexico saying that there is a military dictatorship and saying that he is ready to come back to what he will to pacify the country mariano thank you all lets get back now to one of our earlier stories the investigation into the downing of Malaysia Airlines flight m h 17 in the newly released details that show a link between russia and the separatist groups in Eastern Ukraine step vasant is now in ukraines capital kiev life or so step just how damning is this evidence or is it just circumstantial at the moment. Well these details are very interesting that are coming out of this i made 7 investigation into the downing of the airplane here in ukraine 5 years ago these phone intercepts and ive been reading them are fairy fairy detail and shocking at times these are phone intercepts between leaders of the separatist movement here in Eastern Ukraine and officials in moscow lower officials but also very high ranking officials one of these officials is bloody sluff sukkot of who is a special advisor to fly to be put to him putting himself on ukraine and one of the other calls the name of the minister of defense of the Russian Federation show you who was mentioned in that phone call a leader from the separatist area basically sas man are coming from moscow with a mandate of show you go to replace the leadership in the east of ukraine with leadership from moscow these are very important details for the Police Investigation a joint investigation in the downing of m h f one team because until now they were only like lower or middle ranking officers. Cleared the cleared suspect there are 4 people now 3 russians one ukrainian who are asked who are summoned to court in the netherlands in march but these are all middle ranking and the investigators want to go higher up to the people who actually ordered ordered the book missile to go into ukraine and also made that order to use the book which was the book that downed this airplane and one of the chances that anyone else will come forward before those those people go go to trial. Well 1st of all its very questionable or doubtful that these 4 people will actually go to court in march there will be probably be a court in absentia but the police are now asking for witnesses to come forward who have more information on this line of command up into the kremlin up to the highest ranks in moscow and theres a possibility that more suspects will be named in this case but then again its very questionable doubtful if these people will ever really face the judges themselves but there will be a court case and there will be a verdict eventually steverson in force thanks there are chinas president says mounting protectionism and bullying have eroded International Trade and investment as leaders from 5 major emerging economies are meeting for the 2nd day of the brics summit in brazils capital xi jinping says threats across the world are also weighing down Global Growth the 11th annual bric summit in brasilia is happening with the backdrop of unrest in several south american countries a 2nd look now of what the brics group of countries are all about its brazil russia india china and south africa who make up of the organization it was formed in 2009 to improve trade relations the 5 emerging economies represent about 42 percent of the worlds population and they account for 50 percent of Global Economic growth.
