"france 24's" luke brown is standing by for us, and he is in the french capital. look walk us through the bill being presented today. luke: ironically, part of the bill as are evenly to the oppressed. it is a bill about extending laws covering intelligence gathering and surveillance operations. the interception, text messages, e-mails, phone calls as well as the key logging of computer keystrokes. there is also the localization the possibility footing gps

tracking devices in suspect the apples. there is a bugging aspect, the element of being a microphone and cameras in suspects' homes places of interest, as well as putting spying devices into their computers for stop perhaps one of the more problematic issues also on the table is forcing, really obliging internet search engines and social media such as google, skype, and facebook to provide information about suspect individuals. what this is about is really officially giving a framework, a legal framework for the surveillance of activity. must have it, we are essentially doing beforehand anyway, but they were doing it with no real legal basis. it has been an obstacle for them to be able to do their job. it has provided perhaps the possibility for abusive individual civil liberties. that is being treated here as well as the antiterrorism aspect. molly: luke, a forces comes in

the government are good, but they are not enough. solutions are need or the causes behind the humanitarian crisis. reporter: greece's international creditors say the new bill runs contrary to change as athens agreed to last month. and in exchange for extension of its bailout package, without the bailout money, the country would have little cash left to meet payments owed to creditors. >> we are under the impression and everyone is done with the question, shares the impression that time is running out for grace. they obviously have certain problems. reporter: greece will meet with eurozone leaders on the sidelines of the summit in brussels on thursday. molly: do stay tuned. you are watching "france 24." ♪ reporter: barcelona has
