they do that because they see a business crossing the planet at this time on al-jazeera in everything there is a detail to analyze is to understand to bring clarity and context al-jazeera evaluate the facts to bring clear balanced and in-depth nice to. al-jazeera the knees never stops. was. told. and i'm fully back to go with a look at our main stories here on al-jazeera the u.s. has backed britain's assessment that russia is likely responsible for the poisoning of a former russian spy and his daughter in southern england more than a week ago british prime minister terry some is demanding an explanation from moscow which denies any involvement want to be phillips reports from london the

british police and military is still combing all over the town of salzburg but they and the government now believe they have some monsters that circus creep paul and his daughter yulia were poisoned with a nerve agent developed by russia and that leads the prime minister to one of two conclusions either this was a direct shot by the russian state against our country or the russian government lost control of its potentially catastrophic league damaging nerve agent and allowed it to get into the hands of others she presented the russians with an ultimatum. we must now stand ready to take much more extensive measures. mr speaker on wednesday we will consider in detail the response from the russian state should there be no credible response we will conclude that this action amounts to an unlawful use of force by the russian state against the united kingdom . but from russia so far blanket denial vladimir putin's spokesman says

surrogates group all work for british intelligence the incident happened in britain so it has nothing to do with russia it seems that anglo russian relations are bound to get significantly worse now and the british will be hoping for international support from european and nato allies as they seek to put pressure on moscow. but what measures can britain take that will really be felt in the kremlin diplomatic expulsions sanctions against powerful individuals diplomatic expulsions sanctions against powerful individuals both seem likely but their impact may be limited i'm rushing economy is under such it has adapted to a hostile climate of international relations british national commercial ties. so. things of symbolic nature do not hurt russia anymore

because they expect for the investigators on the ground an unusual an unexpected test of their expertise for britain itself a crisis that will test its continuing stature in the world to be phillip's al-jazeera london. the united states is calling for an immediate ceasefire in syria's rebel held eastern ghouta its ambassador to the united nations warns the u.s. will act alone if the international community doesn't more than a thousand people have died since the syrian government stepped up its offensive in eastern group last month. investigators are trying to find out why it bangladeshi airliner crashed in the palace capital killing at least fifty people the u.s. banga airlines flight from dakar missed the runway at katmandu airport and burst into flames in a nearby field republican members of a u.s. congressional committee investigating russian meddling in the twenty six thousand election say they have found no evidence of collusion by the top house intelligence

the wind if you can say yes so that by the way you can put it on the audience of the day ends or. i'm organizing a big event that the biggest theater in the start of europe and we are marking the fourth anniversary of julia not conscious political as i don't and i for the boys happening at the same day today in their lane brussels belgrade but i wish patties . naples madrid. well i these are all the all the all the venue all our people think this case is not just about julian assange it's about transparency it's about democracy in europe. you nervous about speaking on stage how does it. this is normal.

but don't philosophers just sit in the room and write for some of them can we when you do the right books but also but also this go to refugee that you think you are a new kind of. i don't have time to think about more and waltzes first but since the world will be near speaker and then it will focus people. there that we have from this side begin to thank you. so as you know we are going to listen and to have a conversation with you. way here. so please welcome them both on stage and yes very hard to

vote thank you what they learned from julian assange is that you have to be consistent maybe sometimes you have these temptation to feeling that you're not important that the powers are smiling at last and laughing when we occupy us fair that they are laughing when we are in a public space but hello we have two thousand people here tonight it is at the same time hundreds of thousands watching the lifestream and i think that they cannot just sit in their own and read books even if you want to write about the refugee crisis you cannot do it if you didn't speak to a refugee for instance or if you are writing about the crisis of europe or solutions for europe i think you cannot do it if you don't speak with the people and i think we don't have time only to sit in the room and write about it the need to work because this continent is collapsing from thank you

thank. the men. the financial crash of two thousand and eight started in america's housing market but they were stated europe as it lurch from sovereign debt crisis is to it cannot be stopped nation. unemployment of twenty five percent in some countries led to social unrest and the continent suffered the wars terrorist that takes years. and that was before over one million refugees decided to walk the balkan ruled into europe. often all this is discussed as forces of nature beyond our control. but there's a philosopher i look for the root cause what if they can only call ups refugees and

terrorism are actually all caused by something more fundamental. i'm going on a journey across europe in search of what for next the crazies tearing our continent apart. to saloniki north in greece if you just visited central square you'd never guess this small charming city is at the epicenter of europe's problems. in two thousand and fifteen refugees fleeing war and poverty walked into europe should the nearby village of evil mean. germany said they would accept syrians but after more than a million people came europe panicked and sealed the border trip and those who continue to come in for. greece finally cleared the domine camp in may two thousand and fifteen citing sanitation and safety.

but that's not the whole story. we're heading towards a new refugee camp for the refugees from the domain name or more and we're going to meet most of their. most a face from aleppo and reached into many just as the border was closed he spent three months there hoping and trying to cross before deltora this clear to camp and would you say are different dishes better here than in the domine like what we're told what was weather there and what is better here yeah actually. here is with her it's a plausible is. it's what tech tool from the song from winning from the wind for the tan tears big. but nobody knows how long we're going to stay and we get information i want to. see how long it takes for her just.

you know. taking us back to domine to explain why the camp was clear. and this is something i wasn't expecting. a motorway service station transformed by those refusing the government camps. the services allow them to stay but at the same time doing good business charging them for showers. now is hundred persons change their players or two so we are full of chance and know no one now only me. can you show us a bit how it looked like at the tricks. so refugees tense all this place here right this one venue. full of dance these tracks are the most important rule from greece seaports

a crucial way for local companies and multinationals to get their goods into the heart of fuel. there's a train coming. so when the tents were here at this place there were no trains coming but yeah because. there is not. try many times to bring that. the refugees represented the problem. free of goods and. there is a ministry here. and you see there. in the room with. the tribes with many. more on both our children. we. were blocking the trains deliberately you knew that if you were blocking the way.

you were and the greeks say they will start to react. the greek train company voice he told us they couldn't move for seventy five days costing them a million dollars he lost shipping. i think is the best metaphor for what was happening in europe today in the sense that people refugees who are fleeing from war and from war zones such as syria but also going to stand in iraq became a problem. because we're at the train track and they were blocking the train trip. so it became a problem for for the for parade for also other countries not only greece because this way was blocked so on the one hand what you can see is the. refugees don't have the rights to move freely on the other. goods can move freely as far and as much as they want.

but greece is subject to forces beyond its control. the global financial crash revealed that greece has taken out a mountain of loans from european banks. at the urging of european leaders europe's financial institutions gave greece the biggest loan in history. and most of that money flowed straight back to the mainly french and german banks who can't encourage them to borrow. but the loan conditions required extreme osteria to state spending cuts so severe that the economy shrunk by a fourth of unemployment reached twenty seven percent prompting a huge rise this was. another condition was must privatisation of three s. including this strategic really important. it is one of the most important ports in the mediterranean and recently digne government has sold sixty seven percent of the

shares to a chinese company called. the docks are quiet today the sell off has prompted a better with the unions they say the troika of the international monetary fund the european central bank and the european commission are experimented with a new kind of privatization. you would strike over the coming of the twenty days today and if they strike. very going where going to trade unionists and me thinking since it's an international you know trying to use me think they very much interested thing the paper they say sure that this news thing these two ports which is quite unusual since they're private i say even the port authority or at least city it's fish features on the part of your knowing port authority this is the game plan for getting the airport passport authority headquarters and it will be privatized the day after and this building we've been given to the costco. because costco doesn't recognize unions the

doctors feared they will go from being skilled employees with secure jobs to temporary workers with no rights. can you explain of what is the difference between the working conditions if the part of paedos which is still old by the greek state and the parts which is already old they are using a complex system of suffering so there is no direct employment by costco. and precarious employment that means they work. twelve fifteen days a month so there is no stable job for them there is no. skin show for a trained professional trained show that's why there are frequent. action and saying that mr we know this may be also this more that we subcontracting expanded to other ports in europe the last six years. an experiment for a kind in the liberal policies. what they are thinking here they try to

export it in other countries in the european union. what we have seen in court today was that the biggest historical achievements of the european project. such as collective bargaining such as trade union organizing minimal wages all of this is actually disintegrating. many blame the chinese company cost but i'm meeting former greek finance minister yanis varoufakis astonishing inside information about europe's part in the deal. seems this is not working.

yeah. amongst the first things i did in the ministry they one day two was to embark upon a. kind of silent negotiation with the chinese authorities and with the costco c.e.o. and we agreed to collective bargaining and were allowing trade unions to present workers for other port if they were given the rest of the port secondly they agreed on a spectacular investment program of anything between two hundred fifty three hundred million euros within eighteen months there would have been a fantastic injection of capital of activity of jobs in the part of the us and finally most importantly there would prepared the chinese government to contribute to contribute to purchase a bond a new bond that we would issue as a minister of finance up to ten billion so effectively that would help us return to

the markets and create effective a signal to the rest of the world that this is back now i thought that there was a very good deal and guess what happened there was a telephone call from berlin to beijing saying keep of greece while you were negotiating with them and all deals were off because of course china is not going to jeopardize its relationship with the heart of europe. in order to seal a deal with us. currently the greek government is selling sixty seven percent of the port of paedos and under your deal it was supposed to be fifty one right yes all those things that we had negotiated the director made sure that we're not part of the league he just did not want any european body from a country to be even be to begin to imagine that if they voted people like us in they would get a better deal even for one person. although hugely important for greece is only a tiny part of the thirty five year program of privatization across europe. sectors

like railways energy cost banking airplanes were all part of the one trillion dollars of public assets privatized his one thousand eight. because the united kingdom under margaret thatcher that led the charge for privatization in europe. david hall has been studying the impact of it for over thirty years privatisation supposedly reduces prizes improve services and so on what has your experience and your studies it doesn't reduce prices and it usually doesn't improve services and in many cases it services worse. that's the basis on which prostrations always sold but immediately people have experience approaches ation almost the first thing that happens is that prices go up prices go up because the private companies are taken

over or in the business of restructuring it to generate. returns that the public company didn't get. which might explain why it's usually made it popular resistance but it's almost always forced troops when italians won't take in the referendum where clause promoting water privatization. the government tried to reintroduce that i left it what do you feel it is in private. why do you think that most of the governments in europe but also in latin america and the states still stick to this kind of economic model protozoa actions are seen as an easy way of getting large amounts of money into government so you can use it either true or to reduce taxes and that self actually used and that's how the guy going to do it and that's how for example countries like greece are being instructed to use it by the i.m.f. this is this is this is the core purpose of proposition a great concept system

generate revenue to reduce the debt. and once something is in private hands it is at the risk of takeover by larger often foreign companies. i mean romania there recently protested against water and health privatization but nothing seems to get them as worked up as their forests. being handed back to private owners they've been heavily exploited by international investment firms and european would processing companies. on the border to be transferred when he's one of the forest that has been decimated. it's be replaceable according to the lawyer representing forest owners who may now have the last intact through a forest landscape where the land has nothing to envy and least for a start. today are they are not protected. how far away is it

actually one hour or depend on. their old one hour and a half day legal clear cutting mainly happens in remote places high up in the mountains. romania was a colony of give me a name and now it's. in forest country do you get with you again it will depend if they're your project. their relative poverty means cutting gangs can exploit forest that country can't afford to protect. you see well he's known for it oh yeah you see it.

you. walk so this is it finally and. from here we don't see it. it's bigger and it's what we can see here is completely illegal alrighty usually you are not allowed to cart to more than three hundred or so forest you cut and how big is this approximately one hundred fifty two hundred acres of forest but it's unfair to god and you we need it now they are still cutting it they cut to every day since when did this start and what is the scale of this clear cutting in romania the big one it's beginning after two thousand and two two thousand and three. that was the moment when there's oil for kompany or ponder first factory and. are back on to the austrian company whole stench by horse or are now romania's largest wood processor they don't cut the woods themselves but they

are able to offer a relative fortune to those who will mostly this clear cut down by you know when young people the gang cool. these forests forged the documents and when they reached for factory they had some documents to show them that into to respect any law. but at the factory some didn't even need forged documents. their own mental investigation agency posed as a cutting gang willing to ignore the law something that didn't present a problem for michael a little bit concerns me use the rigidity of the volume that we have to produce or be your least not what we get it from from our side. you decide what you want. we ask her for an interview but they declined so we

turn to chance a green activist who has been sued by frankel. one of her employees a manager has admitted that if they run at full capacity there's no place for other processors on the market can you tell us once they end up in this factory where do they go this sawmill is actually slicing up the logs to make banks all of it and then they exported worldwide. china japan or countries even usa it's a world market a main problem is the fact that there's not much left for us to add to devalue what happens somewhere else the jobs happen so to say somewhat ousts all of this exploitation of nature is happening in romania but nothing stays here it actually goes to other countries right yeah you stay in this in this vicious circle ok of

selling more and more resources at the price that is being. created or fake somewhere else outside of your country and yet you stay in a dependency of those who want to buy your resources. and you destroy your nature and you destroy your livelihood. this makes me wonder whether we can speak about a new kind of relationship which is very similar to the relationship which we had during dollars through gagnon one of. you have the empire you have western europe all certain companies german companies french companies for cutting forests all around the mania in the for the european union and then they are importing them back to europe. and the empire is using the natural resources not only for us but health care system education water and they are expecting to well you know in order

to sort this and. so could we say that europe is actually polarizing itself. by the scene for us where there online what is american sign in your mind that peace is always possible but it never happens not because the situation is complicated but because no one cares or if you join us on sat there are people that that are choosing between buying medication and eating this is a dialogue i want to get in one more comment because this is someone who's an activist just posted a story join the global conversation at this time on al-jazeera i really felt liberated as a journalist was told i was going to the truth as an eyewitness that's what this

job. in the past seven years over three million home stories. and eleven million people displaced. syrians made homeless by war share their stories. in the ruins of a dream and this time on al-jazeera. hello again i'm fully back to go with the headlines on al-jazeera the u.s. has backed britain's assessment that russia is likely responsible for the poisoning of a former russian spy and his daughter in southern england more than a week ago the british government say so again you yes scrape all were attacked

using a military grade nerve agent developed in the former soviet union prime minister teresa mayes demanding an explanation from moscow we should nies any involvement we must now stand ready to take much more extensive measures. mr speaker on wednesday we will consider in detail the response from the russian state should there be no credible response we will conclude that this auction amounts to an unlawful use of force by the russian state against the united kingdom. the united states is calling for an immediate ceasefire in syria's rebel held eastern go to its ambassador to the united nations warns the u.s. will act alone if the international community doesn't more than i found and people have died since the syrian government stepped up its offensive in eastern guta last month investigators are trying to find out why a bangladeshi airliner crashed in a palace capital killing at least fifty people the u.s.

spangler airlines flight from dhaka missed the runway at katmandu airport and burst into flames in a nearby field witnesses say it's why have to repeatedly as it prepared to land. republican members of a u.s. congressional committee investigating russian meddling in the twenty sixteen election say they have found no evidence of collusion but the top house intelligence down crowd has disputed the claim saying there is clear evidence russia tried to help in the vote the committee is now expected to start working on its final report in colombia the government says it will restart peace talks with the country's last remaining rebel group after a six week pause negotiations were suspended in january after the launch a bomb attack following the end of a temporary cease fire nineteen members of the armed forces and thirty four rebels have been killed in fighting since. and the parties forming germany's grand coalition have officially signed a deal to form a new government nearly six months after national elections on amanda's u.t.

let's i'm going to merkel for a fourth term as chancellor on when see those are the headlines let's get you back to europe so ben colonics. part one we saw how the richest countries of europe are extracting the resources of smaller players for countries like greece and roumania in what could be described as a colonial with. it's quite interesting to look back the first globalization the eighty ninety s. the late nineteenth century. where you got a very similar picture of british french german. companies. investing around the world in. sometimes the same kind of sectors christine was right just as a starting not. just as then the companies buying up

the sectors have close links to the state like energy giants e.d.f. owned by the french government and what and fall on by sweden but it's not limited to just european companies and governments europe is also facilitating a colonization by larger forces. sociologists sussan says fine and the abstract idea of making money from money is the real power in the world today. one way in which i would put it is that we're really dealing with with a period that is dominated by a large degree of extract that is not the language they use it sounds much better if you say privatization and deregulation that's sounds like such a intelligent and and sober way to go about it when you say finance

google and all kinds of other sectors are extract sect. that doesn't feel so good it feels like something is getting taken out of the financial system it might as well be mining it has to go into other sectors and extract which makes it particularly dangerous unlike say more traditional forms of investment and corporate is that it can extract. not just from the very rich but from anything including very much. even dollars who once reported the free market are worried you know central the old also from gary and emperor former politician gosh but thomasz campaign for hunger is transition from communism to the free market. but he was forty fight when that led to millions losing their jobs he puts this recent trend into historical context

the. the so this is the same colonialism without responsibility without the political project without the royal navy without the rigid raj without introducing this and that this is just sheer economic and political force being applied. without any kind of responsibility in any kind of. idea about economy future whatever to the weak a conscience so basically i mean this is even worse than colonialism because school only ways in many ways twice this is a politics of totally responsible it's cheating everything and everybody in the same manner maximizing profits and neglecting strategy. and you know this is not the road me you know corrupt company or a little general motors or the old standard oil that had some sort of policy that

had some sort of construction that has been you know threshed out of the political for it is and so on so forth these companies today didn't have any policy not even a wrong one not even an evil one they just want they just want the money. much of that money flows through the city of london europe's biggest financial center. but how long london will retain that position is i'm not his britain wall today in the referendum to leave the e.u. in june two thousand and sixteen. this utterly stunned the british and european establishment who blamed it on the economic laws or who they say are also in a fog. but britain was also the pioneer of privatisation in europe especially in places like port tolbert in wales . the last surviving blast furnace of britain's once mighty steel industry this facility was sold off in the eighty's and is now owned by the indian giant the

periodical trade into pose so i wonder is it really immigration or economics behind briggs. immigration it's not just a case of thank heaven i would say can i want jobs a lot of jobs that they've taken because people don't want to him anymore farmers will tell you our farmers cannot get people to go into a field and pick pick sprouts or whatever it might be just because we come out of europe doesn't mean to say it was you know to solve the problem because if you still can't get people to pick the. water pick the fruits then you know that people into doing. what is the importance and significance of the steel factory. and how it all could change if it flows that would be the ethics on the ordinary citizens or families and so i want to know paul told her push to risk all the other downstream suppliers that we've got you know we don't trust road which is fifty

mile down the road that has every single. in this country origination ports over and is then tinned in the effect in the economy if you will of sense when this would be symbiotic if anything happened the knock on effect would be incredible you call it shops headdresses petrol stations self employed people you builders you carpenters all these people rely on the steel works because the people who work if you feed them in the field your water to remain. on the referendum. you're going to get. high i'm very disillusioned with. the. harlem entry processes that go on stage where. the closely just turn me off completely off i walk into walked. into t.t. to play and we know i think. it's awful great show that's where i.

am for a change as much as in the rocky play their history of cheer. and people have nothing to lose each. so it isn't the immigration they're angry about but the colonial style extraction britain has practiced on itself for thirty five years the efforts of which are all of us in mark's hometown of tredegar which lost its steel mill in two thousand and thirteen. and all of this is now both permanent still like this one what was it before. it was but a seed of our writing things in our own right. past us and how is this connected with the still works because this is sets out to me last night. people can't afford to buy the product so use the same system now if you look around you see it's like take away the trash that. this is the kind of place

supposedly full of hatred for immigrants but it seems that resentment of foreigners has little to do with their anger at the e.u. in the pub i find out what the issue really is prepared for an economics lesson well styled. in short a new low in the liberal economic model full employment is now not of vital importance to its cradle to communities like this where full employment and industry were so important and the result is poverty crime. and the only issue in inequalities which the neo litany are liberal new. wisdom has caused one major issue which is you've got companies who are bigger than countries so we've got a choice for that crossroads jew except that we're going down a road of this neo liberalism the neo liberalism lism of global corporations which

then start to rule the world or we're going to start going well actually no can be allowed to happen what we got to get back to is assets of a british assets that the french assets the german a controlled by those states know the biggest freight. company in this country is germany all our water companies or electrical cars in the east are all foreign surely that can't be right their finger after breaks it ok want to be open to the dangers of globalization nearly burst a wall or big companies will still be here and you have the opportunity for exploitation that's the way same with the arena well right this would really make a big big difference because they control it whatever. how can this colonial process of dispossession be taking place it was such a massive scale without becoming headline news. well this twenty first century

colonialism doesn't ride into town waving a national flag it just seems to happen. but it's actually the result of institutions and rules designed to be shipped and. i'm going to try and unravel this beginning at the port of color if you're going to. the so-called. jungle. which is a refugee camp. jungle is home to those trying to cross the twenty miles of sea between here and britain i was sitting between the french government's regular attempts to clear it at a time when it's still growing you can still see three thousand people here who are in a kind of limbo. people from syria afghanistan africa iraq and all those countries from war zones on the other hand everything is being done to preserve the flea floating off. to your eternal connects britain to europe and covers over one

hundred billion dollars of trade a year. junkie is the director of public affairs. so while the channel tunnel carries a last live value the perishable the just in time components for manufacturing express deliveries the internet retail so companies can actually manage this dog in a constantly moving process that saves them from having warehousing saves them enormous costs and it means that they can have these integrated businesses that operate across the whole of europe. the pole area altered to five kilometers is like this. previously we had to the boundary fence the sort of things you see around any factory or any industrial site then. people started to try and break down the fences so the answer was increased the only difference is these are the two standards high security fences

a very difficult cut very different crime so we now have a very sophisticated fencing and surveillance operation. and since october last year we found no disruption from the migrant process what about the refugees who came from syria from middlemen april were actually also trying justify the better life their future problem is something which is a geopolitical issue so we're we're company in business to operates between folkston and culling we're not we don't have a role a major role in solving the refugee crisis that's for governments international institutions to to manage we have a role a responsibility to our customers to our shareholders to our own staff and to anybody who's on our side. euro tunnel security is now a seamless operation involving french and u.k. forces a relationship established only after the company sued the government in a special for putting forth over questions as to exactly where that responsibility

cutting and what how much response from security on a shelf. and so. there was a case in the international from patricia. in two thousand and one the president and set the record for the state of that responsibility. obviously from the perspective of the company you're a title it makes sense to ask the course to be covered from the state because in the first place the state was responsible for the refugee crisis but it's very interesting to see what is precisely the mechanism which is being used here in order to get the cost being covered by the state. court of arbitration or to britain and france to pay your account of twenty five million dollars for the cost of securing against migrants in the late ninety's. this is highly

controversial song going to the heart of the e.u. brussels to talk to someone who knows how the secret process is war. that court is part of the investor state dispute settlement mechanism known as the ice d.s. which allows companies to sue states when their profits are tried. the whole point about the investor state dispute mechanism is that it runs outside the court system it's about a special sort of law for big corporations i.z.'s is part of that if you're to write i stare says it's part of the t.t. ip so for most of the ordinary people if you mention something such as to tip. they will not understand what it is about ok i would say tip is the transatlantic trade and investment partnership and it's a major trade deal on the bill being discussed now between the european union and the united states it has all sorts of implications you know from the food you ate

the medicines you take the vehicles that you drive the energy that you have animal welfare whether you want to keep genetically modified organisms out of your crops you know if the worst comes to the worst and some of the big corporations get what they want this really is a could be a potential real rollback of a lot of the very valuable legislation that a lot of people who over the years to get in the european. public. supporters on the other hand say that harmonization of regulations will draw the european economy by tens of billions of dollars a year. so i thought it would be sensible to see the document and gene agreed to take me to the reading room for members of the european parliament it's not open to the public in any sort of way. you only get access to the documents if the institution has documents they are gives you permission. going.

so if the united states says we're not willing to let you see our documents you don't going to see that. it's taken a massive european wide grassroots campaign for a me piece to be allowed to see the text of the t.t.p. agreement. and even now it was pulling hard to find. that's that's the number that i was given well there may be no where is that if you're already the reading room yeah because what we were told was forcing some things that. you know now ok. i came. back they only got half instructions it's opposite force the seventy zero hellish try to get caught up in all of that there was.

no it's not that one let up at the top and in that case then it's what. we call the. no she says we can't film here because there was very little money what is this that if you will that you. know. he confirms it is there all the huge trade agreement is behind and find a bill unmarked door with a security keypad. thanks as a minister of finance of greece of one of the member states who was affected by these negotiations i had to sign a non-disclosure agreement promising that i would not reveal to my constituents the my voters that which i read if i was allowed to have a look at those negotiating documents this is preposterous and this is this is this is of the announcement of the democratic process representatives in

a representative democracy keeping the de most of the prison that they represent in complete darkness about what they're saying on their behalf. so why all the secrecy we can leaks has exposed the t.t.p. and its siblings the transpacific partnership and a similar deal covering services so we're going to wrest control in terms. of the effort already an embassy in london she explains why we only know about disagreements from leaks these big teeth three agreements peter beattie i think and t.p. . kept secret because otherwise they're windrush democratic opposition the population and i won't be possible to negotiate you can come to conclusion i mean it's pretty obvious what do they tell us about the new global order and what are

the efforts on democracy these are the most significant. plan to reorder the legal and economic structure of the west and friends. at least since the construction of europe the nature of the agreements is a construction of a new legal and economic block or ultra neo liberal system which will which will cement culture near liberalism within your and a wide range of other countries in treaty form and treaties are very very hard to change because you need agreement of all the countries participating treated change it so it is that the end of any other political project because only by violating the rule of law by tearing up these treaties that you agree to that in fact you can proceed in a different political direction i don't think this process could be described as

colonialism as a new kind in a way of colonialism yes it's a new multi-national colonialism heinies. these trade agreements reveal to the mechanisms to be true of this on the one hand colonized by multinational companies and financial institutions and on the other hand colonizing itself. however these very same forces are behind a more traditional style of colonization which is not through trade agreements but for bombs and wars. the u.s. british and french air strikes against president at the half in libya in two thousand and eleven swept away a regime that was controlling migrant fulls from africa into least huge amounts of weapons into an already unstable region. the females suggest the real reasons for francis involvement are less than humanitarian. gadhafi had
