countries like china decided they don't want to lend us any more money then we're not going to pan back to my they've already loaned us or when you pay it back it's going to be with money that has very little purchasing power because ben bernanke is going to write off the printing press the sooner the chinese start to stop enabling on this phony economy that we have the sooner we as americans can begin to repair the damage and what's going to happen is when the dollar collapses americans are going to see a big reduction in our standards of living. and in europe small countries like the republic of slovakia feel their economy is being crushed under the weight of the euro currency crisis with bailouts for eurozone member states needing to be paid for nations that slovakia are feeling the pinch as artie's surfer through ports critics there say the rules have changed with your membership failing to live up to its promises. they say that charity starts at home also the vacuum may be one of the poorest countries with pressure from the e.u. to participate in the second bailout their money could soon be going to greece it

on them and i'll tell you what joining the euro zone brought responsibilities but not benefits in fact slovakian pensions a significantly lower than days in greece people here at this hey michel to tell us they barely cover their food costs with the money they receive we have to now. deal with homelessness we have to reform our pension system our health care system this never enough money. back in two thousand and nine when slovakia joined the year is a it was such high hopes. it was also kind of prestige to be the first one marker of hungary and triggered probably polish polish people read about first one from central europe to be you know in the zero club that the year is saying it seems isn't all it was cracked up

to be as we joined the euro zone there was at least one three did that we're saying but that's of one country our library to just this one country in may two thousand there and the rules changed dramatically days left as of the year a gang may well now be breathing a sigh of relief the fact may bring me here is a new countries have felt the benefits playback shoppers have been heading to their . kaos in a bid to escape the year a we come just across the border from the backyard to the czech republic where the superstore outlets doing a been in business more and more people make the regular journey to do their shopping because the prices here is simply much cheaper with people now shopping outside the country evacuees retail revenues have fallen dramatically in the high prices mean the tourism industries have been hit hard certainly not the results hopeful when they first joined but every club has its leaders and what they say

apparently gays even if they're the ones who got you into trouble in the first place you see a created this is the reason that all of the countries in europe are. more generous the greek bonds are as good as german bonds so. make it possible for greed. so much money to lock in maybe contributing this time it's left many of those at first so eager to join the euro gang feeling they're now simply being pushed around surf artie said back in. france has been warned by the international monetary fund that needs more cuts to avoid becoming the next victim of the debt crisis the i.m.f. says the country's credit rating could be at risk if austerity measures aren't taken we can all. young these parents developed these problems long ago. the problem is look these aren't things that have just happened suddenly i mean the

french budget deficit has been in a deficit the french budget since one thousand nine hundred seventy four i mean these are things that have been going on for thirty or forty years it's absolutely ludicrous untruthfully governments need to stop spending and they need to be very realistic about their budgets and there are fundamental huge problems going all the way through the euro zone and we don't have any leaders who are willing to give us a sustainable solution this is typical of contagion we've been talking about it for weeks we have you know when you get some degree of illness and it goes through the body ultimately you have to decide when to amputate it and the truth is we should have amputated greece from the euro zone long ago we've got the situation at the moment where provincial libraries in northern germany are being closed because the money isn't there because it's being used to fund people in the mediterranean i think german voters are going to get very angry about that very very soon and i actually think the political will is not there amongst the people to endlessly keep

bailing out there so there never is it's going to be a huge problem because ultimately the contagion is going to hit and i really do believe that after last week's events unfortunately we only enjoyed closer to the idea of a total euro meltdown. hostile to call the program dangerous connections libyan rebels on their command killed his alleged ties to when gene called into question. also nato promises extra troops for the border between serbia and. violent outbreaks of a controversial export. poland is due to release the findings of its investigation into the plane crash in western russia last year that killed the polish president lech kaczynski dozens of the country's political elite also lost their lives with russia based interstate aviation committee along with leading flight safety experts laid the blame for the crash on

the polish crew bad weather conditions and psychological pressure many in poland refuted those findings saying there were one sided called for more to be done to investigate the exact circumstances of the accident with david lemon who's the operations and safety editor at large of global magazine says the reason the investigation continued because poland was so devastated by the tragedy the investigation that followed was was almost painfully thorough. i think the russian investigators knowing how tragic this event was and how highly politically charged it was they went out of their way to explain the reasons for the facts that they found they were unusually they used in an unusually large number of words to describe really

fairly simple things. i think anticipating that the truth was going to turn out to be very unpalatable which of course it was i can't really see why this investigation is continuing the accident was a simple one it's a type of accident that followed a mistake of a type which is happened countless times before in aviation history. i think the only reason why it's happening is because this was such a human tragedy such a political tragedy for the polish people that they they they've been they've been given the truth and the truth is on bearable they can't take it now i don't think that the polish investigators think they can pin the blame on anybody else but i do think that they are looking to pin some of the blame on somebody else for that

of his a were killed. eunice was gunned down i was off the rebel authorities reportedly arrested him and his family suspected ties to colonel gadhafi is regime you know it's been maybe as foreign minister before he defected to the rebels at the beginning of the revolution the national transitional council blames the killing on the supporters and claims to have arrested the head of the group responsible but wanted fire as well as america's antiterrorism caucus says there are conflicting reports of what happened. there are two theories here theory number one is that he has been in communications it seems according to some reports with with the regime of khadafi and therefore he has been called upon for investigation what is unknown according to the sciri is that why he was killed while he was going for the investigation the second theory which could be even more serious dangerous

is that he could have been eliminated by a faction in militia faction within the council within the rebels and both series tells us that now washington and brussels i guess are going to be very concerned about the internal military situation inside the rebels' camps the consequences of his killing could be either short ramification or vaster mitigations if indeed he was only an individual or even a high ranking official who had still relationships with with the gadhafi regime then his killing will be it will be the end of the story if it's the other case that is he and others inside the council the interim council of the biggest the power have been in opposition to another force a militia force it could be other military opponents it could be the islamist militia of the jihadist or another tribe if the case is deeper than the concern is more serious in the west that there could be more clashes in the future or more

tensions within the military camp at a time where the rebel seems to be on the offensive so we're going to wait and see the results of the investigations and most likely the nato command would want to be part of these investigations. well nato commander in kosovo says the alliance will keep a large military presence at the border with serbia to quell possible new outbreaks of violence clashes erupted at one of two disputed border crossings or about two hundred serbs three bombs and customs it was in response to a move by course of the police to take over the crossings blocking exports from the breakaway region nato peacekeepers moved in to stop the violence and on the firing process it's still mr alexander in belgrade says serbs feel they have been treated as an unwanted minority on one they stood regard as their own. they're trying to they're trying to enforce some unilateral moves in order to change the reality on

the ground to change the reality as it was as it is under un resolution security council resolution twelve forty four of always tell us the session is for public so in other words the serbs tore down in kosovo still believe themselves to be part of serbia and they're acting in that capacity now the western states mostly nato states that have recognized cost of war treating them as a minority on the other hand states that have not recognized kosovo independence and not treating it serves as a minority but are seeing them as having equal rights as all of the citizens of serbia but we must remember that the key to the situation in kosovo is really in nato hands they control militarily the entire province so really whatever happens down there is under their control and it's something that they will tolerate or not tolerate and we must also remember with the burning of the border checkpoint we still don't know who actually did it these were masked men

they really could have been any nationality we don't know whether they were serb albanian or french or even american we just still don't know that. some other world headlines for you this hour. at least six people were killed when peacekeepers opened fire on militants in somalia's capital mogadishu violence broke out as african union attempts to ain't i mean if that is the mystery starvation or the fact it's. reported two million somalis are seeking food and water into the areas. u.s. and north korean diplomats met for several hours and this time since two thousand nine hundred six pressed satisfaction with talks described in a serious and businesslike in a good atmosphere. return which will continue on friday and regarding stalled six party negotiations on the north's nuclear program tensions have been escalating on

have been witnessing gigantic bursts of plasma on its surface and say they are affecting our planet even though it's over ninety million miles away each burst sends billions of particles into space which impacts the earth's magnetic field this may trigger some of the processes going on deep below its surface leading to earthquakes and volcanic eruptions scientists predict solar activity will only increase and say in the next few years a large scale disruptions often l.-a tronic equipment or radio transmissions computer failures and massive blackouts could become part of everyday life the sun is clearly monitored either way stations on the earth or in orbit but sending a probe four times closer to the store would be far more helpful and it means not be science fiction much longer they still project currently being developed by the russian academy of sciences. this is going to be like
