activists from the fifteen m. movement hope to make europe a better place the point of it is to inform people that might not be informed. about things that they can do in their local government and to find out what problems they're having in their local government. in their small towns and to help them come come up with solutions we have reunions every evening. with the locals and they tell us what's going on in their town. the organization was born from the protest marches in spain where more than twenty percent are jobless and youth unemployment is painfully over forty percent the highest in europe it's these numbers the drugs thousands of madrid streets in may now the financial food soldiers are beating a path to brussels and some other countries their problems are. even bigger. conscious. big.

realizing that we do have power to change things in the certain way and basically we just have to get on the streets and make our voices heard so the idea is to go to where the. kind of well the central european parliament and all the things that brussels. particularly to to basically protest that we're not having our human rights respected in the place where they're going to say that it will take them two months to march this fifteen hundred plus kilometers to reach brussels where the last thing on their mind will be putting their feet up greece portugal spain people those in their jobs and their homes and while the politicians in this country is insist this is serious and could get better common people believe current economic policies of the euro zone lead down the road to nowhere in the dollar's courtsey spain. meantime economists are all over the prospects for italy and spain look rather gloomy because eurozone economy for such

a large cash rescuers. if you look at the size of the eurozone financial stability facility it's tops out four hundred forty billion the current debt market for its year alone is one point six trillion euro so even if they try to use the front supply up some italian bonds into your clear how much difference they would really make given the size of the italian economy and size of the bond market i want to call market turns against the italian economy which it looks to be at the moment and of course keep spiraling out of control it's only a matter of time until they become unsustainable really sprained does have very large quarry causes well in a large amount of refinancing coming up over the next year. because increasing slightly quicker than italy there also has bigger internal problems in terms of the repast real estate market and very poor economic growth as well so there are more problems really in the spanish economy itself and then you could see the italian completely straight but it does look to have a bit more political stability at the moment although without coming elections that

6:07 am
syria but it's a statement rather than a full resolution which usually covers some sort of action the message demands and to the crackdowns on the protestors but it rules out foreign intervention calling instead for internal political dialogue and comes as the syrian city of homs has reportedly been overrun by president assad's forces with over one hundred reported national teams locals claim a massacre is taking place. has been following the un's moves in new york. all members of the security council adopted a presidential statement which first and foremost calls for an immediate end to all violence and urges both sides of the violence and conflict to restrain immediately the security council presidential statement also condemns widespread violations of human rights in the use of force against civilians by the syrian authority it calls on the syrian authorities to fully respect human rights and to comply with international law the u.n.
6:08 am
security council of course is issuing this presidential statement following more than four and a half months of violence in syria that is when anti-government protesters first took to the streets back in mid march to call for the resignation of the syrian president now as a result of this presidential statement russia's position has been and continues to be that there should not be any overextension pressure put on the syrian government such as sanctions and the council also believe that it was better to put a statement out rather than a resolution russia has said and continues to believe that this issue should be resolved in the form of dialogue trying to get both parties to come together and speak rather than taking sides one way or another version. russian ambassador to the united nations batali churkin said that the security council is still working under the shadow of events surrounding libya after the security council adopted

a syrian regime change to cement its influence in the arab world the international importance of syria is great it's very large if the syrian government were to fall through a cultural revolution or a destabilization or a civil war of the kind that the u.s. is pushing you would immediately have hezbollah in lebanon totally isolated they would be deprived of their strategic depth and their just because back up iran would lose its only significant ally in the region among the larger governments at least this would have a tremendous transformational effect for the whole region i think it in a bad way would make it more unstable syria along with libya right now are the areas where the future of. the governments of the middle east is being decided. and arthur has been closely following developments in syria from the start our reporters were there before the violence began and their firsthand accounts and are available get the full picture website dot com. for ten minutes past the hour here
