on air and online twenty four hours a day you're watching r.t. . budget cuts or bankruptcy tough choice for the greek parliament which is facing a crucial austerity vote european leaders have already warned there are no. options thousands of protesters are again expected to vent the fury over the planned measures at least forty six people were injured as clashes in the strikes paralyze the country on the eve of that hundreds of thousands well mistreats the police using tear gas to disperse them. mate he is demanding a twenty eight billion cuts for use and yet funds to greece. metrical in this part of the. bleak some even under financial occupation. unfortunately the government isn't giving anyone any real options and that's the problem. popular wildly unpopular amongst everyone in this in this country but at the same time they're not giving us any real solution they're just giving us threats i think
3:04 am
people are becoming more and for the time the drachma to say the drachma is going to solve the problems here but at least with the drag my view the debt with inflation if you can't control the government spending which is what we were hoping we would achieve with the introduction of the euro we would have low inflation and low government spending so we had low inflation and high government spending so we had massive amounts of debt. i think i think that people are fed up with you here in general that's a major major feeling and they want a return to something some sort of national economy where they can implement a policy that benefits them because right now they understand they're under financial occupation. but the e.u. is trying to blackmail greece by delivering an austerity ultimatum that's the view constantino columnist for the i think based newspaper. george papandreou has lost legitimacy and agrees and as a prime minister he is a dead man walking at the moment and the pressure from the european union is
3:05 am
tremendous. block made against the greek government because they say that unless you vote for this outrageous bill there will be no more. greece who will be left before my professional opinion is the this is a bluff from european union because if we agree to goes before then it will have a domino effect though i guess the euro. will be a disaster for european union at large but unfortunately our government has not been there all of them and this is the difficult part of the story because you see the memorandum sent there was there in the package is the result is the. gold that export development and this is unsustainable. for the greek turmoil is one of the first problems in the in trade of you head of the international monetary fund french finance minister christine lagarde she might have one overwhelming support.
3:06 am
but many analysts think another european boss means more favorable treatment for some countries and for others. christine lagarde appointment keeps a european at the head of the world's top lender keeping the long held tradition intact and in a debt crisis having one of its own carrying the international monetary fund could be more important than ever for europe i think. intimate knowledge of those mechanisms. of the european community and the eurozone of its many leaders can help the guards main competitor was augustine carstens from mexico who argued her point mind would only add to the perception of i.m.f. by its there could be some conflict of interest. they know their main borel's institution would be europe so we'll have his intuition were they war or stormin

eighteen thirty institutional emerging economies the engine of global growth in recent years are vastly under represented in the organization with the u.s. and europe holding half of the votes in veto power karsten said he knew he had lost even before he announced he was running the fooling myself i mean it's like starting a soccer game with the five to see a real score and only suggest i am i have bias has had a negative effect on the world's economy if you look back at the way that rescue packages and other loans have been made in the history of i.m.f. lending it is very clear that decisions are primarily political based on the interests of the united states or europe they would use their monopoly over. to force certain policies. on countries in policies there were not in their actual interest the i.m.f.
3:08 am
lends money monitors the global economy and in theory at least prevents crises its credibility has been shattered by the financial collapse in the advanced economies which it definitely did not spot they missed the two big big years as a bubbles in the history of the world and the i.m.f. you know which publishes its world economic outlook every six months and is really in charge of monitoring these kinds of things just missed completely i think they didn't want to go against all their friends. and wall street and the others there were making a fortune at the time some experts see the intimacy between the i.m.f. and u.s. corporations as a matter of concern there's always been a long healthy relationship between the big banks and the financial sector on wall street and the u.s. treasury department in the us by extension the i.m.f. all of the big decisions that are made by the u.s.
3:09 am
treasury department then you had of the i.m.f. is more than familiar with the u.s. corporate world for years she worked at a major american law firm representing the interests of big business and is a member of the u.s. poland defense industry working group divest the interests of favor giants like boeing and lockheed martin helping them to seal multibillion dollar deals the u.s. and europe found christine legarde the best for the job so did several emerging markets including russia and china but she faces the difficult task of appearing independent despite her past guys and will struggle not to cement even further the perception that the i.m.f. exists only for the benefit of its creditors i'm going to check our reporting from washington r.t. . but if you go to our website you can see more analysis of what christine the gods appointment could mean terms of global finance expert opinion on that and more on the challenges that lie ahead faces into.
