the issue is the same or should have been a do you consider a minute in the market as we will start military withdrawal from what your street called for the kurds and if the kurds strive towards an independent state what is. also the stop stories of the week that closely rescue the view releases the twelve billion euro trying should read from last year's bailout package of dusting and imminent greek default there was violence on the streets during the week and response to that was telling people are needed to secure the deal. with. hundreds of thousands of public sector workers take part in a one day national strike against the u.k. over government cuts and plans to slash their pensions and other benefits. your good enough and their goal is to control libya. is only get this is the target and . i don't believe the lot of them to do that. so the fight will continue.

i'll see exclusively he's going to dump his son and save our slum he says nature's goal is to control b.b. and its resources and their minds around sabra and strikes on the country and. other activities from the freedom city that carrying humanitarian aid to the listing is in gaza demanding explanations from the greek cost of sorties which have banked vessels from leaving pools they believe the decision was made under pressure from israel and its allies. hello welcome to the program this is aussie's weekly review i knew the charlottetown main story now greece is to get its latest payout from the e.u. and the next two weeks according to your own finance ministers and they also plan to focus on discussing

a second bailout. for the country the release of the twelve billion euro tranship to avert a default came however at a price which has outraged the greek public the greek parliament radical step which is demanded by the international monetary fund including myself the state's assets and it's worth the budget can't hope to have almost eighty billion euros and p's narrative by the measures despite widespread public opposition with protesters saying the current strongest ordinary people are not responsible for the economic matters three days of demonstrations left hundreds injured as angry crowds slashed with police response clashed rather with police responded with tear gas and stun grenades and financial journalist dimitri kovtun as has been with protesters in tahrir square focal point all the rest. i think the only real option for them right now for the protesters and for the greek people is if some sort of political option for a movement develops out of a society out of the ranks of ordinary people who are intelligent or capable who

come from universities who have some idea of what the country needs according to scholars here in greece well constitutional scholars and former members of the government they claim that the measure simply unconstitutional the first place because you need one hundred eighty members of parliament to pass a sort of legislation first of all second of all they can pass whatever they like but if the people don't agree to it and the people are not willing to sit down and take it it doesn't really matter what they pass and that's what we're seeing here right now what you're looking to have happen is you're going to see a fall of this government some point a set of things it really of the violence is a really big issue because if if the violence if this results in casualties not just massive injuries then that's going to assume the lead to a collapse of this government will that mean that the next government will come in and actually do something productive maybe maybe not but then that governments have to fall to i don't see the people in this country lying down there's a report that the head of the pharmaceutical national pharmaceutical station here in greece is going to be filing a lawsuit along with other people against the government for use of illegal substances because these weren't just it was just here gas there were other

chemicals including us fixated agents and that's why you see a lot of people here i saw them myself and a lot of people other people saw them passing out not being able to breathe people inside the metro station not being able to breathe a lot of the hospital for that reason people are very angry here and a very upset and they understand what's going on and understand these measures are not going to help them and their future. and the fear that the cash one how it's not by critics of the brain not halt you that money will be used to pay off lines now people. in south. on the streets of athens the voices of discontent growing louder. it's a war we did not create this tour and are going to pay for this we want to be called large but it continues the fight against economic ruin second bailout. an attempt to prevent greece from previous lame payments that the greek people will be

seeing a penny. of money actually comes into the greek economy it all goes out. possibilities on save the banks and prevent a large scale financial crisis people the price is simply too high they see their income going down they see taxes taxes taxes and nothing else their money does not go to very early a year a struggling against the stairs he measures government now faces an electorate opposed to it not that they allowed. people are asking when the. european central bank and the e.u. provided a nestle to the tune of one hundred ten billion euros get a little hoss. and move on to plan b. because they thought the quest to manage another bailout package and pay back that loan for a lot of people they are realistic is that when it comes to the troika many people

now in greece simply don't want to help. since it's being tall and to self interest . to get passed much as they. get out there are going to get. straight. they're going to get almost everything they. would certainly come at a high cost for the cuts in public spending and raising taxes and any question of privatization. it would mean the sale of many quick public assets one of the reasons that everybody is so determined to keep greece in the euro is so that the banks don't have to take a serious hit on their faults a loan being policies that is almost as if those are the other holy alliance of politicians and bankers versus ordinary people it's a fight that the people say they're not prepared to lose. r.t.

athens. greece was not the only country grieved by approaches this week as u.k. public sector workers went on strike on thursday disrupting schools and pools and other services hundreds of thousands of union members to part demanding the conservative liberal coalition government rethinks plans to cut their pensions as it slashes ac billion pounds equivalent to one hundred thirty billion dollars from public spending on things that were entered upon. down tools are with industrial action and autumn of discontent starts here this time it's the public sector workers walking out unhappy with the planned reform of their pensions which they say will see them paying a lot more and getting a lot less but again it might seem. like i work for me it will be better fifty a week it's. the changes that make it a pension or very necessary to make its way to dress so i think we do need to make

cutbacks in things like being. right in the quality ranges by so much as it is to these people do a huge variety of key work from teachers and lecturers to air traffic controllers and coast guards unisons the u.k.'s biggest public sector trade union deputy chief bob avidly says his one point three million members already for prolonged industrial action we're on a war footing we've got thirty million planes that's aside and we've got a strategy work but i must stress that's not what we want to do we want to talk to the government and negotiate a sensible package nor the ridiculous package they're proposing at the moment that package involves raising the retirement age from sixty to sixty six raising pension contributions by workers and having payouts based on average career earnings rather

than final thousand the unions admit public support is fundamental the government's very unlikely to change its mind about reforms if the public at large doesn't back the unions but that's by no means a short public service workers do already get very generous pensions and the cost of this pensions is very much sort of the tropics and the burden falls on for the next generation it really is absolutely essential that public sector pay. all reforms are needed after their reforms public sector workers will get saw that a pensions and this present search workers the unions want to apply enough pressure to force the government to change its mind and it's no stranger to you turns it was hell bent on reforming the health service too until it decided to take longer to think about it causing friction in the coalition the government's doing this to reduce the current fifty billion dollar pension bill but it may be cutting off its nose to spite its face that the wider issue here according to the new u.k.

pension fund future if you wanted me if public sector work is no don't think that pensions are what while it made me stop contributing to that if there was a widespread withdrawal pension funds would collapse and that would leave u.k.p. a will be very short of investments just what it needs it more than ever your average r.t. loves it. and political activists chris knight says their findings are to blame for the state of britain's finances but if public resistance continues its expression of the government. what's happening here is that a crisis caused by bankers. who are politicians or their pocket is what their products are making us pay as if. hardworking teachers hardworking civil servants hardworking rectories and others are responsible for this crisis we all know that's not true so let's deal with it let's deal with it with

a problem at its roots let's crack down on what i regard as actually electoral fraud and criminal activity we have already seen that discovered is actually very weak i mean nobody voted for it that's put to start with and it has already made a couple of you turn so we definitely think we can force a u. turn on this one and what's going to happen of course is that it is not going to be just white collar workers we're building towards it looks as if the government on the right down the building for something it was something an absolutely enormous we're building towards something we haven't seen in this country since one hundred six a general strike and that's going to be very powerful and the government will will will will fall if it comes to that. this is our c.n.n. still to come this hour the some off of japan's biggest nuclear disaster. there are no plans crude ground or is that can clearly guarantee your safety one example is this was like a beautiful lush green valley behind me but in part this is the very verge of the twenty kilometer exclusion zone but the government has set up. the japanese people lose faith in their government as they accuse it of being reckless with their

safety. measures says it's increasing as strikes in western libya where rebels say they are advancing fly into territories that colonel gadhafi its forces still control the alliance says that as tried to arrange on that military targets but for dozens of people have fled from their homes in fear meanwhile turkey has followed a number of other nato member states declaring its recognizing the rebels as the true representatives of libya's people but as yes there's no sign of an answer to the conflict that rebels continue to reject the african union's offer to arrange talks between them and conduct his government off he's only a few notional reports now from the front line. the road from the capital tripoli to greg is lined with the aftermath of war towns abandoned as the population flowed the bombardment. this is what's left of the airport in the siege of. home to one of

the country's key or the hirings the last plane took off from this runway just hours before it was hit places place and it's only hit in the targets of military value call say these telecommunications towers so thick to the west of the town of . troy. davis is a sight they've been to the strikes and they've also accidentally. two cars and killed two civilians and there is no t.v. in this area and as we can see the light has also been disrupted. there is no water and no to. what used to be heaven this man says has become hell out of his home now susan familiar. i have nine children and i send them all to my relatives abroad i don't want them to see their mother in such a condition but. from the small paws not far from drug gas used to flow to europe.

we used to produce feel to send to them and they destroy it all this is terrible and ridiculous at the same time the closer you get to the front line the more you feel it you can hear the war and you can even read it on a jew's leaflet jobs just before the bombs arrive base runs as you can see there is a sign here in arabic but nato is here believe it to enforce a no fly zone over the country to protect civilians on the other side there is another sign also in arabic saying that nato can attack any place at any time. any time happened three times over several hours while we were filming regulators major parties where the frontline rise divided the country into two parts into to see sides has been a frequent flashpoint within the rebels and gadhafi supporters it's a very important point to to quote hasten getting a firm hand on this count would mean taking control over the country's economy all

facilities seem to be a rare target of nato bombs never land on. the civilian population can hardly scape . they were like my family just going to the shop to buy some foods and this happened six of them died and i couldn't believe it and this used to be a restaurant company staff where friends gathered after work. we were eating with my colleagues then there was a blast we knew what it was we tried to help those who were trapped but then the helicopters came and started shooting. from one street to another the stories are repeated. problem on. the food. there's a man every day every day then being a big killed our civilians. from visit country this is from libya well those voices become more and more frequent as the sound of exploding bombs and warplanes but

drowns them. out t. tripoli. roscoe's alarmed by them big years in talk retention of the u.n. security council resolution only via the concern has been grey's that a meeting between russian and french foreign ministers after paris admitted supplying weapons to the rebels is the first time since the campaign began that a nato member has owned up to lifting arms to the country francis says the framework of the resolution allows for all means when it comes to protecting peaceful civilians something russia calls an abuse of the vague wording of the document. is a solution one hundred seventy three contains chapter four which allows anyone to do anything this very chance it was the cause more problems with the mandate and in all other aspects we support it and as we have warned now we're facing a rather unpleasant situations but it can be interpreted in most different ways i

think moscow and paris and other un security council members are interested for the body to release concise documents to the international law does not need to put up with ambiguity. the african union is calling on member states the good nor their arrest warrant issued in the hague this week against colonel gadhafi if they organize actual doesn't abide by the international criminal courts request but even lead there would be able to evade prosecution by staying in neighboring countries exclusively internet cannot get out their son was also wanted for war crimes out is a war and as a sham operators attempts to kill him and his family. this chorus is is it is it is it me can i ask or come on the accuse me of killing people everybody nor the sentence. of the chemical committed punishment so they decided to kill me and can and did kill my brother and destroy the house so this is you and me to execute you

so you know you had to go while the rest me three months ago it's ok to kill me and you are after me every day you are trying to find me and to give me a billion of other so you simple number two just to tell you that the supreme court . we are trying to negotiate with our audience to if you are so busy and we think you are of the course what does mean. is is controlled by those countries. which attack us every day is just to put. political pressure past present. and the mistake for an exclusive interview with cannot be tapped his son and about ten minutes time here in our city. pro palestinian activists are meant to sail to gaza to deliver humanitarian aid despite being banned by the government in athens from leaving greek ports freedom flotilla has been stuck in the country as the greek authorities have refused permission to leave port and arrest of an american

plant despite the government declaring it's safe for people to live nearby but as artists thomas discovered when it comes to their safety the people of japan no longer have faith in government. in a culture that is generally non-confrontational and obedient. to the streets of tokyo against nuclear energy it is a serious sign of discontent if after this race is it is true that the people are more conscious and we need to take advantage of it this is the first time since the second world war the japanese people have no trust in the government they want to be a coastal city devastated by the earthquake the tsunami and on the edge of the radiation exclusion zone is starting on the long road to recovery of the people living here say the government just isn't doing enough from the city hall york city they said different things like perfect are they said different things and the government is that different things. the alligator here or steve part of the country.

the or the are a part but some believe it is too early to tell what the real dangers of the situation are scientists and know that large doses of radiation given in one blast is a significant health threat but they say there isn't enough information about long term exposure to lower doses of radiation and the types of damage it can do if you kick it here or radiation level and then you take degrees and then you take water you always feel have different values because it's so close and it's so changing so you can hardly say but it's really exceeds what a normal person would have by year one of the frightening things about this entire incident is that there are no concrete boundaries that can clearly guarantee your safety one example is this looks like a beautiful watch green valley behind me but in fact this is the very end of the twenty kilometer exclusion zone that the government has set up in fact we're trying

to get a little bit closer but we're supported out by a police officer and a truckload of earth will now although this is supposed to be a safe area the radiation levels here are still brain seven and ten times higher than normal weather for misinformation or understanding the people who live in the affected areas don't always take the proper precautions here a volunteer works to clean up toxic radioactive hot spots with hardly any protection at all a problem that some say is compounded by government propaganda accentuating the benefits while neglecting to inform about the dangers of nuclear waste. the first thing the government should do is let the citizens know the real cost of nuclear energy and so now the priority has been to profit from energy a p.r. machine of the government has been emphasising the benefit of nuclear energy and the citizens have been brainwashed to believe it now in the wake of an international crisis and there are allegations that the government and the power companies have worked out a deal to help each other and that the media. has been blown off the t.v.

channels need the money from advertisement and the nuclear energy companies pay a lot with a there's money they cannot survive and for that reason i have to shut up about the situation the newspapers have this problem as well a move that if true keeps the important information hidden from the people saving face for those in charge in japan and china thomas or teehee. and sounds concerning to favorite kind of a sign is coming up right after recount of the top stories in a few minutes. it's.

great for the full story we've got it from the biggest issues get a human voice face to face with the news makers. spending the year in iraq is no true journalists. some ways to go in the news conference because there's kind of wasting their time trying to get killed. i thought all was going to give me the low life and in my. view to be about twenty seven days going to publicize it in by the market.
