trees that are fiscally irresponsible and a permanent centralised funds to bail countries out when they do get into trouble is that they don't want to pay the price for all the country's irresponsible money management ever again as they did here where your. so there you are. for this economic block a trading bloc. a very powerful bloc well there's a crisis if you individual member states who have to pick up the pieces and. they meet. but this is the euro skeptics say the reason it's not working is because it's fundamentally flawed the economies in the eurozone dispersed so much it's impossible to have a common monetary policy and it's the strong who've suffered germany particularly paid the lion's share into a seven hundred fifty billion euro fund to bail out greece earlier this year it was

a move that was opposed by more than half of all german chancellor angela merkel now says she couldn't do that again without risking action from the constitutional court in germany new countries still want to join the euro zone and they would welcome tighter rule. is an aspiring european country that wants to join the euro zone we want to join the euro zone with the greek crisis would be impossible we want rules that will not let it happen in theory changes to the lisbon treaty would mean individual countries would be able to hold a referendum on whether to stay in the e.u. but there's increasing your a skepticism relating to the cost of being in the e.u. and the benefits involved if countries did hold a vote it's not a tall clear what would remain of the union. or amateur reporting there and on the sidelines of the summit eleven out of the twenty seven members countries rejected

plans to increase the budget by six percent he said the demand isn't acceptable in the current cash strapped environment according to your skeptic. the only solution to the financial problems is to get rid of the single currency. their problem is always that there isn't enough european union not with us too much of it but they don't have enough power so they see every crisis as an excuse for demanding more power to solve the problems that they've created in the first place economically it's in a terrible state because of the european single currency greece portugal spain all these countries their economies are going down the tubes the economies of countries like germany and france and the u.k. will be a lot more healthy if they were burdened with regulation and in the case of france and germany with membership of the euro and of course they have to bear the tremendous burden of countries like greece and of course spain and italy and portugal what we need is to get rid of the european single currency get rid of all the over regulation on business and allow economies to actually revive and become

more healthy under proper free market economic conditions the wide things that go on at the moment is inevitably only get worse and so the government program here on our t.v. sales season for american rubbish. we rocky's or not you can. take your john couey with you and. these are just some of the items on sale of bargain prices with the risk of pollution and disease thrown in for free. and a mess come true bears wander the streets of some russian towns driven from the woods by the summer heat wave and a search for food. president obama has been forced into some major changes to his administration many of his advisors from his chief of staff you can argue military experts are jumping overboard like rowland's from sinking political ship lauren lyster looks into why there are so many vacancies coming up at the white house. ask anyone on the street if

a bunch of heavy hitters that were say running a company all started resigning and retiring one after another what would you think was going on i think companies underperforming i think probably that is going on there they're not happy with their boss or they're not happy with the working conditions now what if that place of employment was the white house and their boss who will renew old alliances the president of the united states that's a tough question whether people find it more complex or find themselves more politically correct. there's no ignoring that something's up when all the president's men or at least a lot of them start lining up for the door one by one. at this point before a critical midterm election this is highly unusual to have so many people leaving the white house i've been told what this is emblematic of is a white house in crisis and excuses of exhaustion or jobs at premiere universities

don't seem to fully explain recent and imminent departures they read like a laundry list of obama's once nearest and dearest chief of staff even as i leave the white house i will never leave that spirit of service top political advisor director of the council of economic advisors well larry summers is one of the worst buyers you have ever made here and there have been he was instrumental in the financial meltdown the budget director national security director defense secretary gates is like a fossil at this point. i mean i think there is only so long they could hold somebody over from the bush administration i think and general commanding forces in afghanistan they're fighting probably and was sworn in afghanistan you know they're looking for supposedly one man for the pass ten years you know for some reason the whole world here behind them with all of these people jumping ship you. i have to wonder if it's because the administration is sinking into

a sea of the country's bottomless problems the white house doesn't have a magic wand they can't fix the economy no matter who's in office but policies that really are inadequate are unable to really even dent the problem are not going to work and that's what we've had here so where does this leave the once popular president who won over much of the world with his pledge of hope and change. high and dry i think that you came to really really tough time. it's going to take probably more than two years because it took more than two years i know. what white house in crisis may be the result of a country in crisis remains to be seen what this means for the united states if its leaders can present a united front lauren lyster r. t. washington d.c. . former u.s. state department employee massey house says the d.c. economic advisors who left the white house were out of touch with the public think

that over the last ten years we basically took an axe to the fundamental underpinnings of our economy and it's going to take us many years to rebuild those foundations i think that we'll see this economic downturn particularly in the housing market last for four or five more years at least so i think the problem is the american people think that folks like summers and roemer or out of touch that these are the people who put forth a couple months ago we had a report that said the recession ended in june of two thousand and nine i don't know how many people in america see that every day and so i think that that for a lot of people what this shows this gulf between academics theoreticians senior level government officials and what the american public goes through every day. that was draw of u.s. troops from iraq is due to and next year but those who have already pulled out are leaving behind a dangerous legacy junk to businessmen it could be worth millions but us policy or found out it could also be polluted and poisonous. it's the city of mosques and

it's fast becoming the city of leftovers junk left behind by the american army now darts the flu gel landscape. lots of things generators car bodies engines all for sale for just a few dollars the highest bidder gets to walk away with second hand goods american soldiers no longer want what. the prices are attracted quite reasonable here the sellers claim they came across the loot in different ways some they found some was stolen the rest they bought a loss was just given to them. as for me i would buy it we rockies are not ok for rubbish we say take your junk away with you. across iraq can fly this have been evacuated by the american army and handed over to the iraqi security forces opportunity but that has nothing taking afghanistan has either been returned

home to the united states of mind here but american officials worry that the tens of millions of dollars of equipment left behind could end up in the wrong hands. so what worked here the americans didn't leave anything behind for three i'm sure of it all the stuff it's all generic and sort of the rincon scant used the humvees the regular army get from the american army we had to buy them. anybody can come here to shop but very few do there's no love lost for things american in iraq today. people here in america if they are also scared that these things may be polluted in cause disease or up to save says he wouldn't take a chance buying anything here he's been warned by local media they could be poisonous substances in the abandoned us military camps. are the people for your main diseases including chose to eat and cancer and the concern is backed up by the iraqi government but look at who acquitted. of course there must have been

a great impact on the environment a great number of weapons were used in this world and on a wide scale tests show an increase in pollution levels a good chunk of the american army has nifty rock in what u.s. officials are calling the biggest movement of people and machines since world war two but the soldiers and the equipment that remains i was stalked reminder that the war is not quite over. iraq wars in both iraq and afghanistan have changed the lives of hundreds of thousands of american soldiers but what's more dangerous the role in fighting or dangerous medication given to personnel by their own commanders you can find out our special report that's coming next hour here on our team. i'm sorry that i had to do this i've been in so much pain in the past year that i can't take it anymore stomach and chest pains have been getting worse and no doctor has been able to help me please

know that i'll finally be at peace with no more pain i wish i could have had a life with that was a bit. picture of her being my wife and mother to my kids i love you all see you all in heaven when your time comes i'm going to meet jesus christ. thousands of u.s. troops in iraq received one of these drugs a drug called lariam and it may have prevented many soldiers from getting sick the question tonight is whether or not soldiers were adequately warned about its rare side effects serious life changing side effects. the media have been buzzing with speculation that nato may be trying to persuade russia to provide further assistance for operations in afghanistan but are to military contributor even get a chorus of says before that happens the u.s. has to admit to the trouble it's causing the region and apologize for its actions. in a perfect world it would be nice to believe that nato sincerely wants russia to cooperate

in their efforts in afghanistan in reality nato wants to exploit a menu believed to rush into providing not only the transit route to afghanistan but mostly a political cover for their disgraceful eventual exit after the nine years plus disaster in afghanistan russia as a successor of the soviet union has never had any imperial the stick designs regarding afghanistan or pakistan for that matter the most important issue for russia right now these are the aggression that threatens not only their russian national security but the global security as well and if need to real who wants to in the least the russian support they have to come clean and explicitly said meet the whole trouble in afghanistan have been triggered by the us administration

they have to assume full responsibility and commitment and to resume the aerial eradication of count of the fields all across afghanistan. let's not take a look at some other stories from around the world and indonesia's most volatile kaos erupting again just hours of another disaster a tsunami hit several islands a day before the two natural disasters have claimed almost four hundred lives but scores are still missing rescue teams are continuing to search the worst hit areas in the hope of reaching survivors of. the war between drug trafficking cartels in mexico has taken a new twist with six people shot dead in the capital mass shootings in mexico city are rare but the incident has raised fears it could become more common another attack took place and it's near the u.s. border a factory bus was ambushed killing four workers and one. twelve others. huge

the pool and the third is just as the russian in boat just showed we have to factor in climate change when rob talks about or let anyone buy from anywhere india was told still producing food by the world bank and we were told we should buy from australia and the u.s. with the u.s. green is going for cars and animals and also has had extended drought you cannot. give up your food sovereignty and it's one of the biggest myths about russia hungry bears roaming the streets in search of a human feast for dinner but now it seems there could actually be some drugs in it the summer's here wave and forest fires have forced many wild animals to head into towns for food peter all of her has more on the bears necessities. the bear one of the iconic images of russia recently though the relationship between the animals and the people who live alongside them has been less than cordial the searing heat and fires which swept through russia this summer destroyed much of the bear's

winter food supply forcing them to search for alternatives in the russian city of sifted garden a twenty six year old man had a very lucky escape after he was attacked by a bear right in the center of the city the man was bitten in the neck and realizes how fortunate he was that i still can't understand how i escaped death i somehow managed to push the animal away so he fell crushing a fence. elsewhere in the city there was a more macabre incident involving a bear while visiting a cemetery two women saw what they believed to be a large man crouching by a grave as they got closer they realized that it was in fact a bear which had dug up a body and was feeding on it the women scream scared the animal way it's at least hundreds took turns to guard the cemetery so far there has been no sign of the bear so we have the situation under control who. it's not just the human residents that have had some close encounters with bears airport c.c.t.v.

caught this guard dog having to run for its life after drawing the attention of an inquisitive bear it all of them if we were told that the bear came from the direction of the town the dog attacked it it tried to smother the dog the dog got away in started leading from bear way from the house that almost bears have also taken to attacking livestock as a source of food in the you kaminski district of central russia hunters had to be employed to protect cattle in some cases humans make problems for themselves with bears it's strongly recommended not to try and feed the animals in order to get a photo opportunity so as incidence of contact between humans and increase around rush hour at this time of year it's important that we respect these iconic creatures so as not to become the next victim of bear attack peter oliver r.t. . and for those who aren't scared of bears we have some more scary sides on the way this time involving the supernatural.

as many of them are located in already developed areas as a result of increasing reserves and the development of new fields and improving efficiency we can anticipate that the current level of oil extraction of five hundred million tonnes per year will continue for the next ten years. while maintaining oil extraction is a priority for the government the country is refined are looking at paying increased taxes and has that set up a cover of course this may take some downstream operations and profitable. that may have to spend five hundred have billion dollars to build the state of the art oil refinery in central russia the refining official sells this complex is unique for russia mine to seven percent of all the crude that arrives here is turned into a usable product with only three per cent waste analysts warn however such expensive projects may stop making economic sense if the government increases x.

producing on refined products up to ninety per cent of the tax on crude aleksei konkan from your all safe says the government is thinking about the conscious deficit and which areas of the oil industry it's most wants to develop they just might be looking for a sector that it's not yet taxing taxed enough and not this generating cash and so what they see there with them serving is that there's there's a. lack of cash for investment in the upstream so perhaps the shift to off of the of some segment at the moment the average x. produce here on refined products such as pacho and kerosene is about fifty five percent off that on crude the prime minister says the rabbi two hundred fifty or refineries in russia producing a very low quality product but making a lot of money on pretty. taxation putin wants the government to introduce a new tax regime for the oil sector by the end of this year but analysts warn

against an indiscriminate price for refined there's the best way to turn the kurdish complex refining seconder to posture would probably be to increase it slightly so that companies that are producing too much maybe a few or all you know are the biggest problem for the oil sector is the lack of new on field projects and the massive on their investment in extraction the government wants to ensure there is no tailing off from the country's crude output even if that is done at the expense of refiners that's your nobody's business are to you. now let's take a look at the markets asian stocks are mostly lower after some song electronics forecast a drop in quarterly earnings and sharp got a profit out of a strong yen is hurting exporters as it cuts the value of their repatriated profits commodity shares are also lower but he will put six percent in tokyo after raising
