don't know when welcome to business out eager to have your company the oil prices rebounding slightly after losing six percent last week however worries about a possible default by greece are still weighing on the group the country is due to hold a parliament confidence vote later tuesday i'm joined in the studio by him on the back from energy agency to discuss more on what's going on the markets what you think you so much for being with us so why is greece and everything surrounding the problem so potent to you all right well thank you very much for the opportunity of being here greece is one of those countries that is really at the forefront of budget deficits and all the issues facing many other countries in europe and even the u.s. so it is
5:22 am
a very good case study if greece portugal officially bankrupt and unable to pay spots so if that were to happen it would send a chill all across europe that debt from countries he's no longer trustworthy and if that happens then there would be a chill in the mail because a lot of the consumption in europe is funny little boy but i would also disbalance the currency market causing the euro to tumble new some of. these issues are very serious across because it raises a lot of questions regarding consumption not just seen greece but across europe and what role the euro will play in europe but across the world for a country like russia you have a lot of your reserves in dollars. maybe you're all i need the euro is no longer a trust and but then there is a problem that really cuts across the globe so

5:24 am
a very big you'll see the immediate opposite effect with the euro we can i want to cause world prices to to go down which is not good for russia has a very dependent on oil and gas reserves resources country do you think russia should actually intervene in this situation maybe hand out money to greece in a zone well frankly i don't think so because already europe gave a lot of money to greece obviously they were not able to fix their budget in that time now they're asking for the second hand that if russia work to come and give money i think happened what happened the first tranche just gets lost all right because we have the director for global markets reporting from energy agency thank you so much for being with us thank you. all right let's take a look at the markets if we have time right now and let's look at the latest oil price and it's actually going up as we mentioned light sweet up more than one dollar brant fifty five cents this is all ahead of this. confidence vote in greece
