7:02 pm
is worse now turkey says improving turkey is improving in all fields but europe is going backwards so we don't really come. to fish people are using the year as an investment or earn money here is a more reliable and piggish people don't want to save their money in the year. if you invest in your rose you get more than he was also stronger than dollars having said that i don't want to risk investing. but academics analyzing public opinion have found a common logic in decisions about the euro people polled don't care about wider economics but about their own personal finance its. economy is actually beyond the. fact that. you're a skeptic or you're a fire the public opinion analysts are keen to point out that further economic integration into europe doesn't just mean money and that people shouldn't only think about their pocketbook economics they have to take into account the freedom of labor the freedom of service you know service these are all integrated in.
7:03 pm
it's not only you know exchange of money or turks living. thing. one thing everyone does agree on is the mess the eurozone is in whereas turkey's economy grew nine percent last year and over ten percent in the first quarter of this year europe especially southern europe has come to the point of catastrophe because of excessive borrowing greece has so far been the worst hit. and others economic disasters have meant appeals for bailouts this makes it difficult for national governments to you friend. possibly pouring more money into the coffers of irresponsible or inefficient members within creasing tension in the economic mismanagement some forsee big problems ahead because i mean corporation. based

on a single currency in europe. is. going to be history in the future meaning that turkey will likely remain independent trader for some time to come turkey's markets are famous to tourists and traders alike taking that mercantile spirit to europe one seemed like a good idea but with all the riches here it's not so in europe you know longer seems like such a profitable move some bason r.t. istanbul turkey. and while the u.s. struggles to pull its members out of a destructive default spiral the country is what stuck to their own currencies are breathing a sigh of relief and that's a view from germany which has always been a chief proponent of. those european nations that are not the will. go there the right thing. to be your there's no way we can avoid a default it will have to be done. with by the european community everybody
7:05 pm
together if the greeks leave. as that is like you know it's wrong their mind. we just wait until this is some sort of. tripoli canonical you know because both of these things like an economist i think is trying to suppress solution because. once you know you. really love and once you can do that once you've done all you you can regain your competitiveness of the international market this i would call it was the example of projects you know which broke out of the monetary union with the u.s. dollar as the. in a few minutes this hour the highly qualified people destined for a low quality life china produces more university graduates than it had a prior period churning out thousands of the actually worthless degrees every year
7:06 pm
. how to avoid economic meltdown that's been the latest topic for discussion to be international economic forum think because barack the gathering of rock sap on sunday right also dealt with the horizons for investment in russia and how to give developing countries more clout in the international monetary fund and of all bank and he said now i want to perform. of course the main topic at a session on cultural financing with european officials there is going to be the girl crisis but what has to be aside from the two officials in the president's face prime minister post stated that it's not a euro crisis that the separate countries in the eurozone are having crises and they kind of outlined that because about the euro crisis of the currency being weak it's really as they see it the currency is very strong that could of course be too faded from the president was that sound and president medvedev we heard a little less optimistic things about our bureau saying that it could be expected
7:07 pm
that when so many different states get together and share one car and see that eventually they're going to run into problems overall how fifty seven the session went pretty optimistically resumes that if pointing out that the economy is a lot like the weather here in st peter's for one day but on the first day of the form you have beautiful sunshine on the next day you have rain and that's our really experts in these officials are looking at the economy and optimistic that eventually they will somehow get out of that the main challenge though they hear of the european union i should say and russia and countries like kazakhstan are facing is not to allow the euro crisis to affect their trade and that's really what was the focus at this final session it has to be said as well though that the final question actually from the moderator wasn't in fact about money it was the question that was really on everyone's mind and would it come up before the end of the forum and that of course is whether or not president makes a difference going to run for reelection here is what he. should do but when i
7:08 pm
consider it a trooper to tell you whether i will do it or not i will come out and say yes this forum is not the best place for that one thing you can be sure of is that i would be able to avoid making that statement i will have to tell the people of russia i'm the anyone else who's interested in my decision so secret that president medvedev may want for our presidents and if you're wrong. the real action will certainly be modernization that's what he's hoping this forum with and this is the best place to really work you tell on projects like spoke over the plans to build a somewhat like silicone valley institute just outside moscow it's owner way of development a lot of c.e.o.'s of figures here for the three day summit in st petersburg from silicon valley we had eric schmidt. and they're actually meeting with all of the officials from both of i work you signed by side with them to make sure that this project moves and develops the sickly as possible so it's
7:09 pm

and discussed possible pressure on damascus at the united nations with russia but most could see her as one by any resolution that may bring military action need leasebacks that college child rose says that all me any armed intervention would be counterproductive. although it's local for exporting democracy and all that sort of preaching. rest of the world i find is highly inconsistent and it's hypocritical and in the case of syria in particular i think the us is caught between wanting to be at the same time mortified by what the alternative would be in syria which in my view is completely unjustified it's not necessarily going to turn into a fundamentalist islamic state or anything like that what we are seeing there are really for freedom and democracy and. could have been if you like played a more consistent role in foreign policy hasn't but is also
7:11 pm
