and from the international space station so they had to do some checking make sure that everything was ok they were able to create an electrical fire passive the malfunctioning appointment but they decided to wait a day because there's only a small window of opportunity for them to make their correct landing spot they decided to take that extra precaution and so today at six o two in the morning they got back into the capsules they were released from the international space station successfully at eight thirty in the morning they launched a deorbit burn to send their engines a back into the earth's atmosphere then there was a tense of five minutes between nine o two and nine o seven where there was no communication whatsoever with the capsule as they were entering your satisfy your and the parachute deployed that they landed safely back on the ground at around nine twenty one local time in kazakhstan at this point they are now back at star city they are back in the moscow region and they are in fact getting their medical checkups right now as i do looks like after six months flying for everything is a ok the next crew which is it t.m.a.

11:05 pm
a conference in berlin with some claiming its future is doomed huge doubts run out by countries including greece portugal spain and on and put the current sound a huge pressure earlier this year saved only by a multi-billion euro bailout but critics believe this is just the beginning of the end for european monetary union lore and it isn't. we had a room full of six hundred fifty people listening to around about fifteen speakers ranging from economists to some of the foremost currency experts in germany and also former european central bankers and they've been saying essentially that maybe not today maybe not tomorrow but sometime in the not too distant future the euro is going to collapse and they've been arguing that it's a fundamentally flawed concept in the first place that ever since its introduction it's been in inherently a wrong thing to do also officially bringing together sixteen economies nearly seventeen when i joined in january that inherently have nothing in common there's going to be adoption of what they're calling an action plan is going to be four
11:06 pm
points and one of them is going to encourage people to call for a referendum in germany on the euro asking people whether they really want to or still being forced into the aim of these people through that referendum will be to bring the deutsche mark back to germany now i am joined very kindly by michael moore austin who is a stock market guru and he's also the editor in chief of and you news michael thanks very much for talking to us now tell me will you be backing this referendum that's being proposed if there's a referendum of course but on the other hand have big doubts. take place because all those questions are. politically incorrect we don't have a call from the from the masses. this scene is. people just don't talk about it it's really a scandal in my opinion from russian t.v.
11:07 pm
here and the western media is for example covering this event to. be christian if such could be. in the future because the political. people. for example. currency which is a basic democratic scene in my opinion we were not asked if you want to have it all so many other people of the european community will not and if you would ask them they would say no we don't like it for example we had a recent poll here in germany fifty three percent of all germans didn't want to europe still don't want it at the moment and even sixty percent of the french people don't like it so i ask myself why do we have it it's only a thing of a political book a seat in brussels to behave more or less like the taters in my opinion you know we didn't elect them but they tell us what to do so and in fact that's one of the
11:08 pm
things that you and other people in the room is saying is that the euro is a tool for undermining democracy yes of course it's to do so very much it is the basic tool for brussels in order to dictate it to the government how much is this conversation about getting rid of the euro pie in the sky if you like what do you think it would be a hugely destabilizing thing now that the euro is in place to dismantle erase and in this way some economists say that it will be almost the same as the effect that the collapse of lehman brothers hatch this is of course the other side of the coin is the longer we have it the more difficult it will be to get rid of it and of course there will be thousands and millions of problems but it doesn't mean that we didn't have to start no because the longer we wait the more problems we have we will get and the higher we will fall down i mean there's a saying in germany if you are moving towards the wrong direction there is no sense in excel or to the extent where diversity you know what is it eve did even makes it

11:22 pm
i'm in berlin with professor vilhelm. one of a group of currency experts who filed a suit with the constitutional court in germany against the greek bailout. very much for talking to r.t. now tell me about the complaint that with the court your whole idea. is illegal because if we force the. community. of this complete beat me up a very simple reason a country which can. be bailed out will not follow financial monetary gifts.
11:23 pm
so all know it's a precondition for a stable you're having now is a spade have to fear so you'll never be in future. because the greek has already won. spain. maybe thirty or. so is a real thing. you know it's going in your zoo or. very very close to inflated and this is the reason we start that this is a complaint. must be fulfilled and so you maintain that under the terms of that treaty a bailout is actually illegal what outcome do you hope for if sykora to sharing. in german participation. be stopped and i think we are coming back to. stability probably you see which is freighting over
11:24 pm
here and maybe greek is forced to opt out and why not because the country is not very happy with your country if you read economy cannot share monetary crap having hard towards for beauty and hard currency and what effect do you foresee for the rest of the year in saying if countries like greece and spain and possibly italy were forced to pull out. too soon or possibly. get a smaller but a harder monetary union not sixteen or seventeen members but only eight but countries. follows that all of this would be an option the whole experiment of union in my view which was not the union but concubinage sixteen countries shared one currency which is
11:25 pm
a nonsense political as well as in economic terms so if this experiment bill be stopped there would go to come back to a national currency so germany to search my heart and why not the choice mark there wasn't a particularly strong currency was it in there in the ten or twenty years leading up to the euro how do you think they would have performed during the financial crisis i think in case our congress are coming back to national currency and germany smart send the very have a clear cut split in your between countries depreciating. appreciating and germany pricing given his high surpluses and counter current we belong to the appreciating currency saying that currency is not the damage but it is a real want to travel the country you get more real goods for your money so we would have higher welfare lower interest rate and better performance in the whole
11:26 pm
economy which we had before your point if the euro did collapse and the year is broke apart surely there would be a period of huge instability in countries like germany and throughout the year i say. it's a moment all countries have problems. because the euro give him credit which is not worthwhile for source countries in a year or so on all accomplish even big deficit countries countries with high inflation rates people who get credit this is the reason ours as ours are all over it so after such an experiment every country becomes very cool too. so you can run piece. of equipment which is pretty important for profit and. crucially. diminish may be

explored surpluses but again more prosperity in the home market so each country of see you will build five against this national crisis first national means and overcomes a crisis so it's a much better concept. to master financial and economic crisis some economists say that europe will emerge from this sovereign debt crisis in better shape than it ever was before what do you say to that it's a moment your goal is to subsidize currency. so it is a c. but that is subsidized by a high inflationary intervention of the european central bank which is the beginning of inflation. and inflation for your book means weak if not junk pickup and see which is in total but so since see thousand years of monetary still the all conflicts running and jeff it's. source.
11:28 pm
