2. so when did you start. yeah so that by the way you can put it on the audience today and. i'm organizing a big event that the biggest theater in this part of europe. marking the 4th anniversary of julian assange as political as i don't know like what was happening at the same day today in berlin brussels belgrade paris naples

madrid. well i desire all the all the all the venues all our people i think this case is not just about julian assange it's about transparency it's about democracy in europe. you know this about speaking of how does it. this is normal. but don't last for just sit in the room and write for some of them. sometimes the right books but also but they also do this for both refugee that you think you're a new kind of from us. i don't have time to think about myself. and most of the 1st the world will be near speaker and then it will focus people.

from this side begin to. thank. so as you know we are going to. have a conversation with major intellectual. way here. so please welcome them both on state. very hard to. thank. what they learnt 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 2000 people here tonight in 8 cities at the same

time hundreds of thousands watching the live stream and i think the more they kind of just sitting there on 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 and you sure don't speak with the people and i think we don't have time only to sit in the room and write about it we need to work because this continent is collapsing. the financial crash of 2008 started in america's housing market but there are states that europe is it lurch from sovereign debt crisis to it cannot make

stagnation unemployment of 25 percent in some countries led to social unrest and the continent suffered the wars terrorist that takes years. and that was before over 1000000 refugees decided to walk to balcombe route into your. 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 norton greece if you just visited central square you'd never guess this small charming city is at

the epicenter of europe's problems. in 2015 refugees fleeing war and poverty walked into europe sure the nearby village of evil mean. germany said they would accept serious but after more than a 1000000 people came europe panicked and sealed the border trip and also continued to come in for. greece finally cleared the domine camp in may 2015 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 3 months there hoping and trying to cross before deltora this clear to camp and would

you say are definitions better here than in the domine like what what are what was weather there and what is better here. yeah actually. here is very plausible. it's what tech tool from the song from winning from. for the 10th years a big. nobody knows how long we're going to stay and we get information on how long we're going to see how long it takes for the. they said nobody else. to face 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 100 persons change the players it used to be full of fans and no no one now only me. can you show us a bit how it looked like at the tracks. so refugees tense all this place here right this one venue ice like full of dance. these tracks are the most important rule from greasy ports a crucial way for local companies and multinationals to get their goods into the heart of fuel. there's a train coming. here at this place there were no trains coming but yeah. there is not. to try many times to bring the 3. the refugees represented the problem. free or and.

there is a ministry. and you see there. the tribes with. your. children. so you are blocking the trains deliberately you knew that if you were blocking the way. europe and the greeks they will start to react. the greek train company ois he told us they couldn't move goods for $75.00 days costing them $20000000.00 he lost shipping. i think is the best metaphor for what's 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 peroration for also other countries not only greece because this way was blocked so on the one can what you can see is that refugees don't have the right to move freely on the other hand 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 kept encourage

them to borrow. but the loan conditions required extreme osteria to state spending cuts so severe that the economy shrunk by a 4 to unemployment reached 27 percent prompting a huge rise this was. another condition was must privatization of all 3 s. including this strategic really important port of p.j. . it is one of the most important ports in the mediterranean and 3 simply the greek government has sold 67 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 experimenting with a new kind of privatization. you would strike over the coming days 20 days today and if they strike. the very going where going to trade

unionists and me thinking since it's an international trade to us we think they are very much interested thing the paper they say sure then that is news stream and these 2 ports which is quite unusual and since they are private i say even the port authority or at least city of fish features on the part of your knowing that all of this is that the envelope already there for a 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 self and thought so there is no direct employment by costco.

and precarious employment that means they work. $1215.00 days a month so there is no stable job for them there is no. skin show for a trained professional they're trained show that's why there are frequent. action and saying mr we know this maybe also this more that we subcontracting expanded to other ports in europe the last 6 years. an experiment for a kind in a 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 1st things they did in the ministry they one day to 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 board if they were given the rest of the court secondly they agreed on a spectacular investment program of anything between 25300000000

euros within 18 months that would have been a fantastic injection of capital of activity of jobs in the port of the us and finally most importantly they 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 10000000000 so frankly 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 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 67 percent. after part of

the dos and under your deal it was supposed to be $51.00 right yes all those things that we had negotiated the dragon made sure that we're not part of the league just 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 35 year program of privatisation across europe. sectors like railways energy cost banking and airlines were all part of the $1.00 trillion dollars of public assets privatized since $1008.00. 100 margaret thatcher that led the charge for privatisation in europe. david hall has been studying the impact of it for over 30 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 1st 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 care. which might explain why it's usually made it popular resistance but it's almost always forced through when you tell us what if in the referendum where clause promoting water privatisation the government tried to reintroduce that i left that what are you telling this in private. why the thing 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 it and that's how again the 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 held 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 we transfer away and yet it'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 man 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 the legal clear cutting mainly happens in remote places high up in the mountains. romania was a colony of the get real name and now is the 2nd poorest country in the you get with you again with the perry theory of the job.

their relative poverty means cutting gangs can exploit forest country can't afford to protect. the sea well he's known for it oh yeah you see it. you can 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. usually you are not allowed to crowd to more than 300 or so forest you cut and how big is this approximately. 15200 pictures of forest and tired of guns

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 20022003. that was the moment when there's powerful kompany or ponder force factorial. in our back on the austrian company whole stench 5 hole for our now romania's largest 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 and the gang cool. these forests forged the documents and when they reached the revolver 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 my little bit concerns me using rigidity fever in that we have to reduce or be your piece more than what we get it from from either side of you the size you want. we asked her for an interview but they declined so we turned to chance a green activist who has been. one of their employees a manager has admitted that if they run at full capacity there's no place for other processes 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 out of it

and then they exported worldwide be to china japan arab 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 somewhere else all of these 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 fixed somewhere else outside of your country and you stay in a dependency of those wants 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 dolls' through again your mana. you have the empire you have western europe also in companies german companies french companies who are cutting forests all around the mania in the parable of 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. the form of the burning sponte 2 pm dreams of peace and democracy but how many came

to pass they transformed from communist the social democrats but it was a fake democracy people in power travels through the former eastern bloc to wasp-y. post cold war optimism to succumb to dhaka more authoritarian realities the police called a couple who brought a bomb to the launch and they were ready to detonate it to be on the wall one on al-jazeera. al-jazeera with every. the story of a british italian man experiencing life close up in a palestinian refugee camp in beirut it's. coming face to face with the daily life . lives of its residents some of whom had lived there for 70 years but he's been refugee almost all his life it's not a normal life

a short 7 days in beirut that. an al-jazeera. alarm clock and top stories here on out 0 and libyan warlord who leave for have to has agreed to a cease fire that's just taken effect in libya that's despite previously refusing to have forces loyal to him put down arms in april have to us forces launched an offensive on the capital and seats of the un backed government when we don't know what has more on the seas far from tripoli the united arab emirates egypt and russia have to allies after today's meeting between the russian president vladimir putin and german chancellor angela merkel in moscow and their call for an immediate cease fire in tripoli to pave the way to the. peace talks between the

rival factions but it does not seem i mean the announcement by have to a spokesman short a little while ago does not seem to be concrete when another cease fire brokered by russia in turkey has come into effect in syria's italy province it comes less than 24 hours after at least 20 people were killed in government strikes in and around it. the ambassador to the united kingdom to iran has been arrested and released after attending a protest in tehran it's the government's handling of the shooting down of ukrainian passenger jet the leaders of kind of ukraine demanding iran take full responsibility for the disaster. venezuela's opposition leader one writer is calling for new protests against president nicolas maduro venezuela is set to hold congressional elections this year the date has not yet been set the latest twist in

the country's power struggle so quite a block from congress as materials government try to install an ally to replace. a man's new ruler have him been tidy cover side has failed to up hold his predecessors approaches regional peacemaking he spoke after being named successor to sultan qaboos bin site outside amman is now in 3 days of mourning after the death of sultan could lose the region's longest ruling monarch died after a long illness at the age of $79.00 and taiwan's a pro independence president has won a 2nd term in a rebuke to china's campaign to reunify with the island nation so in when says her landslide victory shows that taiwan's people are committed to defending that democracy or you have to take the headlines here and i just got more coming up after europe for pretty colony life. 2 2 2 2 2 in part one we saw how the richest country so if you were up or extracting the

resources of smaller players for countries like greece and romania in what could be described as a colonial when. it's quite interesting to look back at the 1st globalization the 8090 s. the late 19th century. where you got a very similar picture of british french german. companies. investing around the world in. some time with the same kind of state christine was just as a starting out. just as then the companies buying up the sectors have close links to the state like energy giants e.d.s. owned by the french government. and what in full 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 a of extract that is not the language they use it sounds much better if you say privatization and deregulation that's just 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 what 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 modest step. to it even dollars who once reported the free market are worried. you know central the old also from gary an emperor former politician gosh but thomas campaign for hunger is transition from communism to the free market. but he was 40 fight when that led to millions losing their jobs he puts this recent trend into historical context but. the so this is the same continent as him without responsibility without the political project without the royal navy without the reddish raj without introducing this and that this is just sheer economic and barley growth force being applied. without any kind of responsibility and any kind of. idea about economy future

whatever to the weak a conscience so basically i mean this is even worse than only it was because coal only way is in many ways to us 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 fresh out of the political for it is and so on so forth these companies today didn't have anybody 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 2016. this utterly stunned the british and european establishment who blamed it on the economic laws or who they say are also xenophobic. but britain was also the pioneer of privatization in europe especially in places like poor 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. periodical trade and to 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 falls out what be the ethics on the ordinary citizens or families and so i want well paul told bush to risk all the other downstream suppliers that we've got you know we don't trust which is 50 mile down the road that has every single hines team in this country origination ports over and is then tinned in the effect in the economy if you will of some where this would be severely out of if anything happened here 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. be on it i am very disillusioned with. the. parliamentary 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. shop i'd like to show that's where i. am for a change as much as and there are deprived areas around here. and people have nothing to lose. so it isn't the immigration they're angry about but the colonial style extraction britain has practiced on itself for 35 years the efforts of which

are all of us in mark's hometown of tredegar which lost its steel mill in 2013. and all of this is now both permanent film like this one what was it before. it was preceded by writing things in a laundromat. past us and how is this connected with the steel works because this is sansa i mean last 2 years people can't afford to buy the product so use the same system now if you look around to see if i 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 welsh style. in which all the new low in the liberal economic model full employment

is now not of vital importance it's fatal to communities like this where full employment and and industry were so important and the result is poverty crime. and the only issue in inequalities which nearly new your liberal new. has caused one major issue which is you've got companies real 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 from the neo liberalism lism out of global corporations which then start to rule the world or we're going to start going well actually no i can't be allowed to what we got to get back to is assets of a british assets that the french assets the german a controlled by those states you know the biggest freight. company in this country is german all our water companies or electrical cars in the east are all foreign

surely that can't be right their finger after a break ok want to be open to the dangers of globalization nearly burst a wall or big companies will still be hearing you have the opportunity for x. but they always say mother rina 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 in such a massive scale without becoming headline news. well this 21st century colonialism doesn't ride into town waving a national flag he 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 call if you're going to hurt. the so-called. jungle.

which is a refugee camp in. jungle is home to those trying to cross the 20 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 3000 people here who are in a kind of limbo. people from syria afghanistan africa iraq and all those countries from war souls on the other hand everything is being done to preserve the fleet floating off towards. the euro tunnel connects britain to europe and covers over $100000000000.00 of trade a year. junkie is the director of public affairs. so well the channel tunnel carries a loss high value the perishable the just in time components for manufacturing express deliveries to internet retail so companies can actually manage their stock

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 after the 5 kilometers is like this. previously we had to the boundary fence sort of thing 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 quality since these are the standard 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've had no disruption from the migrant process what about the refugees who came from syria from either mainly from greece who are actually also trying just to find the better life their future problem is something which is

a geopolitical issue so we were company in business to not price between folks 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. your eternal 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 cut in and what how much response from security on a shelf. and so. there was a case in the international trouble tradition. in 2001 the 1st to 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 1st 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 course being covered by the state. court of arbitration or to britain and france to pay your account of $25000000.00 for the cost of securing against migrants in the late ninety's. this is highly controversial so i'm going to the heart of the e.u. brussels to talk to someone who knows how the secret process this 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 dreadful. 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 right i stare says it's part of the t.t. ip so for most of the ordinary people if you mention something such as t.t. . 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 board 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 grow 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 going to blow up there may be no where is that if you're already the living room yeah because what we were told was forcing some painful history that's. you know now ok. i came. back they only got half instructions it's opposite force the $70.00 hell the show you know you get to go to the over there was. no it's not that one but it's open in that case then it's what. we call the. no she says we can't film here just

for money what is this that if 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 a v another moment of the democratic process representatives in a representative democracy keeping the de most of the position 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 rescue a trillion times. at the ecuadorian embassy in london he explains why we only know about disagreements from leaks. these big teeth 3 agreements he's a teacher ip and p.p.p. . kept secret because otherwise they're windrush democratic opposition in the population and they 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 neoliberal system which will which will cement alter 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 in treated change it so it is that the end of any other political project is only by violating the rule of law by tearing up these treaties that you've agreed 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 multinational colonialism the heinies of. these trade agreements reveal hidden mechanisms to which europe is on the one hand colonized by multinational companies and financial institutions and on the other
