also coming up this hour -- new revelations from wikileaks. the nsa was not just spying on the past three french presidents. it has been spying on french companies as well. and new republican presidential candidate donald trump gets dumped by u.s. network nbc after he makes derogatory comments about mexican migrants. that and more on the way. first, our top stories. genie: dj in greece has arrived. this time the d standing for default. they cannot pay back the 1.6 billion euros it owes to the national monetary fund. greece could get its nest --

next slice of bailout money but only if it agrees to an eu deal on the table. the greek government said it would give people the choice in a referendum to be held sunday. thousands turned out last night in athens to back their government, saying they would vote no. just in the last few minutes we have been hearing that contact is reportedly underway between athens and brussels to try to reach some sort of agreement. let's bring in natalie's every guess. what can you tell us about this 11th hour deal? natalie: the developments -- some reports suggest that the prime minister's have traveled to brussels to meet with john jean-claude juncker. that the institutions would pay off the imf's 1.6 billion euro loan to stave off a bankruptcy,

and that would allow the government, the greek government and the troika to negotiate to avoid the referendum. and avoid the long and protracted state of in and out default. genie: let's talk more about the situation on the ground where you are in athens. thousands turned out last night to back their government, saying they would say no to the referendum if it takes place. what are the chances the referendum might not happen at all. nathalie: we need to take it on a day by day basis. one thing is very important to note, they feel they belong to europe. they want to stay in europe. and this is no longer a yes or no to europe, it is a yes or no

to austerity. it is a matter of national pride. it is not about whether the greeks are -- the overwhelming majority here fear very much it belongs to the euro and part of its european family. the referendum itself has to be more for the europeans and the greek people. it is a very confusing situation on all sides. genie: thanks for that. in another development, we are hearing from a greek government official in athens, as alexis tsipras spoke on tuesday with jean-claude juncker and mario draghi. to talk about that breakthrough let's bring in our business editor, stephen carroll. what is important about the developments now that we are here? stephen: there is a european

press conference taking place in brussels, and there is some information coming from that -- i should say, confirmation that alexis tsipras spoke with jean-claude juncker last night to discuss the last-minute offer we are getting. very little detail to be said so we cannot speculate on what may or may not be in that. there has been a lot of movement in the last few hours. we are hearing a proposal that would have involved greece accepting the document that was published on sunday by the european commission. there were still pointed disagreement over things like pensions and how the pension system will be changed as a value added tax is issued as well. the two sides have not agreed on them. if greece were to accept the last-minute proposal, they would have to accept the document and alexis tsipras would have to write and say that he had accepted that document.

he would have to campaign for a yes at the referendum on sunday, and in exchange they would be a new meeting of the eurogroup schedules to finalize an agreement between the two sides. there are some reports giving us ideas of what that might entail. a newspaper in athens is saying that could involve changes to the top pension grant. there had been some disagreement on whether that would be phased out and whether it would be replaced by something else. there has been some talk that perhaps there could be some debt relief in the offing. that comes from a source we have spoken to at that greek newspaper. that would involve perhaps paying it off over a longer period of time. that would be a significant change in these negotiations but no confirmation of that is coming from that press conference that is underway in brussels right now. genie: we are hearing that the

greek prime minister, the greek finance minister, yet is very fox, would not pay on tuesday. what happens with regards to that, stephen? stephen: the greeks -- greece owes the imf 1.6 billion euros and it needs to be paid at 1:00 a.m. greek time tomorrow morning. varoufakis is saying that they will not make that payment. that is technically a default. but you will not hear that link which coming from the imf. they have a different way of looking at things. they say that greece will be in arrears. we know that will not happen in greece's case. that is what christine lagarde told us. they will start this arrears procedure, which involves a meeting at the board of the imf, the aim of which is to try to

get the payment schedule back on track. meanwhile, they will not get any new money from the imf. it will not be much of a difficulty for greece because it has its own problems with the debt bailout. the job is to a sort -- to assess the credit worthiness of the country for private investors. they also say that if greece misses a payment, it will not be a default from their point of view. genie: what about the markets in all of this? what kind of market reaction has there been? stephen: the interesting thing when the news first came, there have been new contact between athens and the european commission. european markets were trading down and altering into positive territory but that has dissipated quickly as details of what has been proposed turned out. that is not represent any great change. you can see all the markets are

down slightly. paris and frankfurt book -- paris and frankfurt closed monday down 3.5% but then that disappears quite quickly. the euro is pretty much where it was before trading, about a half percent on the day. genie: how does the situation in greece compare to what happened in other countries in the past? greece is not the first to go down this road. stephen: no, but it is the first country that has missed a payment to the imf. this one payment coming from greece is 1.6 billion, almost as much as the payments of other countries put together. what is important to know about greece's relationship with the imf, is that they hold the biggest amount of debt. they are a very important debtor to the imf, and that is why there participation will be interesting to watch.

genie: stephen carroll, thank you for reporting on that situation. we will keep you up-to-date on the latest development on the greek financial crisis as we get them here on "france 24." let's take a look at another major story. in two -- in tunisia, the tourist industry looks set to be crushed after the attack on a hotel that left 38 dead. it is the second attack on tourists in tunisia this year after the shooting at the bottom museum in march that killed -- at a museum in march that killed 24 more. tourism is a key driving force in the national economy. >> british tourists lucky enough to have survived the massacre are going home. they are among thousands of people who would rather cut their holidays short than stay on in tunisia, where 38 people

were killed in a gun rampage friday. >> completely put me up over there. >> the attack is the latest blow to the tourism industry, still reeling from the aftermath of the 2011 revolution and the attack on a museum in march this year. >> we failed. we failed to protect the people. we must revise our strategy and identify the failures. >> british travel agencies have already flown home 4000 holidaymakers since friday. france operators say all holidays booked for tunisia next month have been canceled. prospects look grim. >> we have to make decisions on whether there will be social problems in the country. there will be problems for businesses.

tunisian tourism has been around for 60 years. if this sector collapses and is not supported, the entire economy will collapse. >> the industry accounts for 7% of the country's gdp and provides 400,000 jobs. tunisia's government has promised short-term loans to help with the struggling sector. police have been armed with guns. genie: now to burundi and the results from all the regions in the vote are now being compiled. burundian's voted for a new party is the opposition boycotted. they have been backed by the international community in naming the president and his term in office illegal.

>> the votes have been counted in an election that has sparked the worst unrest in burundi in a decade. >> if you love your country, you have to protected by electing leaders that you have confidence in. >> while the ruling party cited enormous participation reports suggest there was little violence in the areas that have been most violent against the president. >> i am against the third term and the elections are badly organized. >> critics say cu renzi's a -- say cu renzi's a -- a presidential spokesman said the international community should not judge the situation before it is finished. >> free, fair elections. but finally, we have proven to them that in the country, in burundi we can organize

elections. >> the united nations, african union have called on president pierre nkurunziza to delay the vote. the african union could take further action. >> when the elections take place in complete defiance of calls from the african union and the international community i guess they will be able to make the proper call when that time comes. >> dozens have died in the unrest since april, and almost 140,000 people are thought to have fled the country. genie: to yemen now, where 28 people have been hurt in a car bomb in son all -- in sanaa. both of the shiite attacks have been claimed by the islamic state.

the islamic state militants are seen increasingly as taking advantage of the political vacuum in yemen, with rebels trying to dislodge the nationally recognized government. for the past three months, and alliance has been bombing them to try to bring the exiled president back to power. we were talking before about the deadline for greece. there is another deadline that runs out today as well, on nuclear talks with iran. negotiators in the and are making a final push to reach a deal, if not by tonight, then at least in the next few days. our correspondent joins us now from vienna, where the talks are taking place. what is the latest? >> the israeli and foreign minister -- the iranian foreign minister has return to negotiations in the austrian capital on the day of the deadline earlier tuesday. he was accompanied by not only top advisers but also his wife.

reportedly he had to go back to iran to consult with the country's leadership regarding the number of sticking points, one of which is sanctioned and the other is access to iran's military sites. apparently, he has come back here with a message from iran's leadership, and that message came quickly in the form of a tweet from iran's high power. the supreme leader tweeted that "i recognize that our negotiations are trustworthy and faithful." that is the ultimate stamp of approval. we are keeping a close eye on the negotiations taking place behind me to see whether both sides will need a next her few days. we have to remember that another looming deadline, that comes on july 9. that is a congressional deadline. genie: it sounds like iran is making some conciliatory steps to make the negotiations a success. are the stakes higher for them?

sanam: this deal would be mutually beneficial for both sides at the negotiating table. the international community wants to see iran scale back its nuclear program, and in return, of course, in iran, particularly for president hossein rouhani he asked the west to lift the sanctions. this is needed. it would open iran not only for foreign investment, but it would free up 90 billion euros of frozen assets abroad. the iranian leadership are championing these negotiations. iranians flocked to the square early tuesday to show their support for the negotiations in vienna. genie: sanam, thanks for that. after french leaders, it seems the nsa has wiretapped economy

ministers and spied on the country's largest companies according to the latest wikileaks revelations. neither side has given comment so far, as our correspondent explains. >> economic espionage on a massive scale. that is what the national security agency is guilty of, according to wikileaks' latest revelations. it revealed that the nsa spied on about 100 french companies from 2002 to 2012. the spying focused on french exports worth 200 million dollars from oil and gas to telecommunications and biotechnology. other leaked documents show the nsa gathered information about france's budget and trade policy by eavesdropping on two finance ministers, one who served under a former president, and one who served under francois hollande before becoming the eu's finance

minister. this comes on revelations last week that the nsa had wiretapped his two predecessors. he called the move unacceptable between allies and friends, and if it turned out that he was a target of such surveillance, he would demand a nation from american authorities. though u.s. officials have acknowledged they collect financial information, they have made -- they have remained adamant that it is not for commercial gain and does not amount to economic espionage. genie: donald trump has been dubbed by nbc, after he made several -- has been dumped by nbc, after he made several derogatory comments about execute immigrants. he said some mexicans who came to the u.s. are drug runners and rapists. his programs have now been canceled.

>> we think these broadcasters realized that bashing a large part of their audience is not only not good business, it is very bad policy. so in terms of their decisions i think they are realizing that backing the large portion of their audiences that are not only latino but actually citizens is a good direction to go in. genie: donald trump is insisting he stands by his comments and has threatened legal action against the network. you are watching "france 24." greece looks set to miss today's deadline to pay back a massive loan to the imf. athens is urging greeks to vote no to more austerity in sunday's referendum, even if that could lead to crashing out of the eurozone. it looks now like an 11th hour deal could possibly happen.

another deadline due to be missed today on nuclear talks with iran, but officials say they will be postponed for just a few more days at the most. the tunisian tourist industry is devastated by friday's attacks on a beach hotel that killed close to 40. the country is set to lose at least $514 million this year. you are watching "france 24." it is time now for the press review. we will take a look at what the papers have been saying today. hi, flow. so much focus on what is happening in greece, and especially the news of a referendum that will be put to the greek people sunday. flo: greece are being called to vote no against the terms of the bailout on sunday. this is a huge story in greek press.

this is a paper that is quite close to the government's party. you can see the headline says "no for elections." a centerleft paper has a quote from tsipras, "i will not let myself be humiliated." the flipside of this is the news coming out of europe. european leaders are warning that a no vote sunday will mean that greece will be pushed out of the eurozone, as we take a look at the front page of "the wall street journal." you can see the european warning of a risk of a no vote. a french business paper interviewed a member of the executive board of the european central bank, and the quote here says "unfortunately a greek exit from the eurozone is not out of the question." the greek finance minister has

given an interview to "the telegraph," the british paper that has been given a lot of attention because greece could be given an injunction at the greek court of justice. greece is threatening top court action to any -- to block any grexit. he says -- genie: greece is not the only place in the world drowning in debt. you took a look at an article where the governor of puerto rico says that island is in a death spiral. you can read more about it in "the washington post." it says that puerto rico is groaning under debt, at least $173 billion in debt. this is the governor of puerto rico, a la hundred garcia -- alejandro garcia padilla.

people are calling puerto rico america's greece and are urging the u.s. to save it from default. genie: french papers are focusing on a new wikileaks document saying that the nsa spied on top french companies. flo: this is getting a lot of attention today. these new wikileaks documents were published jointly by the left-leaning paper. you can see their paper here today. it is an investigative online publication that comes in the wake of those revelations that the nsa was spying on politicians in france. now wikileaks, according to these documents was spying -- the nsa was spying on french companies. the nsa was also targeting the french economy. this front page has a clever pun. they talk about "the other nsa

business." the politicians and the companies. washington has been leading a policy of economic espionage against france for at least a decade. the nsa wiretaps two french finance ministers, collecting information about export contracts valued at $200 million . also collecting information about trade and budget talks. what is interesting is that hundreds of french companies were under surveillance, including all the top companies the major companies here in france. all sectors of activity, whether it is nuclear, new technology, the information collected by the nsa was also shared with u.s. allies, so the u.k., canada, australia, and new zealand. all this information really cost france some serious contracts

that meant that a lot of jobs did not go to french people. it is referred to as america's "dirty game," harsh words. genie: in the united states many papers are focusing on the supreme court decision across the country now, to legalize gay marriage. flo: that is right that happened on friday and is still getting a lot of attention. some papers are thrilled about it, especially left-leaning papers. here is a quote from "the new york times," a cartoon where people are riding in a car saying not "just married," but "just recognized." will this lead to more of a perfect union in the united states? "the wall street journal" editorial says it is actually not a triumph for democracy. the editorial says it would have

been better if this had been settled in a democratic way through politicians' vote, etc., and it is a dangerous precedent according to "the wall street journal." what is interesting is that this decision came one day after the supreme court upheld a part of the -- of part of obamacare.
