and imperial truly the taj was to close call until you can a little closer which suggested to go. brothers and the colonel was hotel as a retreat. this is r t and snipe crowds gather in athens angry over facing more deep cuts what should you be imposed by a government that scrambling for rescue catching germany right now. also this hour as government forces storm a key opposition town and syria moscow calls on both sides to talk while rejecting western sanctions. violence to flares up between serbia and breakaway kosovo is seven qassam and serbs are injured in the disputed border crossing. russian markets rallied on president despite the resignation of the country's finance minister alex it could try to business about twenty minutes.
2:01 pm
earlier moscow it's not broadcasting live it's ten pm thank you for being with us for a viewer watching around the world angry greeks are gathering in athens to protest against a new set of government cuts which are expected to be passed next month the measures are needed to secure the next vital bailout installment prime minister george patton was in germany to convince its made lender the greece is on the right track to reducing its crippling debt sarah ferguson athens for us. only say the numbers here are. thousands upon thousands of people had. the parliament discussing the property taxes creep extremely in the country you can see the country levels right thing again translate that c.b. and we've already seen the riot police meeting in there you can see cars that was
2:02 pm
the main event being. certainly if else like peace that we saw in the summer when those places. we saw the fires now from the evening we saw were still a thing happened on syntagma if in a struggle here to get the situation under control greece is a country on the brink that e.u. leaders are still discussing whether it's relates that eight billion years cash injection the greece is going to need to stay afloat we've really got to ask how much that matches are going to work because we've been here before we've seen it happen and as we said all the people here in greece have reached their breaking point once again with the extreme anger on the street these measures that people say they simply can't live with to see disability ground. there so to financial advisor marco joins us now from london marco hi there more cuts for greece of the solution of choice of course for politicians but as we've just seen or as we just
2:03 pm
heard reporting in athens a public far from convinced same problem seem to be happening again is more austerity really the way forward. well austerity in the near term will that will allow greece to qualify for the next round of bailout but economically speaking obviously severe cuts in a recession is only going to drive the country further into recession it's very difficult to see how the greeks can turn this around and whether the population can enjoy. this for perhaps years to come the greek finance minister is confident he thinks that his country will get that next bailout payment or worse they say they're going to run out of money otherwise by the middle of october don't they but how is that really going to kickstart an economy has grown too old despite so much that's already been pumped into it's the same old questions we're asking but the same proposals are still coming forward to be done about it i will let this be clear about this this is not money being pumped into greece this
2:04 pm
is money going to greece's. creditors effectively the money the bailout fund all it's doing is simply servicing the existing debt it's not actually being invested in greece in terms of creating jobs it's a big creating exactly there's no isn't there this is not a bailout fund where jobs are going to be created and the economy's going to be kickstart kickstarted there's not what this is about what is happening here is money can't be borrowed by the greeks on the markets because the markets have lost faith with the greeks to be able to service their debts moving forward so all this is doing is servicing the interest on the mountain of debt that greece has built up and the key to it of course is germany has put forward any new measures to help greece this time around but it says it is prepared to help still stand by it for a minute and look at germany as it stands at the moment look at their position why
2:05 pm
should it one to help our friends anymore and keep it afloat. well in the near there's the issue solidarity of trying to keep the euro together. and in that respect it may help germany because greece within the euro will keep the euro very weak and that will help german exports in a way that's that's how germany can can gain from this but it's very difficult to see how the greeks are going to ever pay any of this money back they're struggling to even service the debt let alone actually pay it back so it's very difficult to see what's in it for the germans in the long run in the near. say in the next couple of years or in the next few months as i said it will keep the euro weak and that's good for german exports now most recently we heard about that grand plan this huge great big budget they were planning for the whole of the eurozone now we're in the german finance minister is denying rumors that that eurozone bailout
2:06 pm
fund will be inflated to the two trillion euros they were talking about it had been mooted as a way to shore up the so-called too big to fail countries spain italy what's going to mean for them now seems a bit shaky. well it it in principle it sounds like a good idea but of course it's an it's another banker solution what you're saying is that we've got a debt crisis so what we're going to do ease more and we're going to create a bank out of these two hundred billion in the bailout fund and we're going to gear that up ten times and use that as a way of a bigger fund to bail out these countries i'm not sure even with a bigger fund it's really enough to all the peripheral countries but it may help to actually provide some stability to the markets in the near term and of course a lot of this is simply about confidence if the markets believe that the euro. is solid it is at present the markets don't believe that the euro is solid the mark of
2:07 pm
the markets don't believe that the politicians have got control of the situation and really in many ways that the leaders are well behind the curve ok mark appear to apollo financial advisor good reviews on the program tonight thank you. in syria government troops are reportedly stormed a key opposition turn after pounding it overnight with heavy machine gun fire russia's foreign ministers reiterated the talks of the solution for peace not western sanctions is also what addressing the u.n. general assembly in new york from their season and as to see it. wrapping up his visit to the united nations general assembly session here in new york the russian foreign minister sergei lavrov has addressed the united nations general assembly with a speech touching up on many different subjects that are most cording for the international community and syria was certainly opera top of that list and one of the most important points he made regarding syria was that it's key to let the government
2:08 pm
and the opposition try to carry out talks let them talk before any intervention from the outside world take takes place he has said that the government should be given the opportunity to carry out the reforms that they promised and you know the international community should refrain from taking any action until this opportunities given to let syria deal with its own issues to avoid destabilizing the region even further because he brought up the latest example of libya he reiterated that russia really believes that russia stands against the use of any kind of force against innocent civilians and libya's example has unfortunately showed that actions from the outside world really should take place within the scope of the international war and going behind a school can hurt innocent civilians so russia is really speaking out against america's approach to call for the syrian president to step down and for sanctions to be implemented at the security council difference but we cannot support the
2:09 pm
project that is being pushed through by western countries but it is among other things to do with the libyan experience. what the next try to use how have you calculated your next steps the answer we get is that we haven't thought about it you know with president assad needs to go we need to draw you into a corner with sanctions should go first and then we'll see you very soon i believe not very reliable strategy if it could be called a strategy we know that the united states and the european union have implemented unilateral sanctions against syria and have been calling within the united nations security council for the international community include. russia of course could join in but it's been made very clear that russia would not support a resolution against syria until syria is actually given a chance to work some of these things out many different issues were certainly addressed but all eyes have been on palestine here in new york at the united nations general assembly and the russian foreign minister has reiterated russia's position really that it's supports palestine's official bid for statehood within
2:10 pm
the united nations security council and within the united nations and he has welcomed expressed russia's welcome feeling for palestine's wish to participate in further negotiations with negotiations with israel as we know have been stalled and of course is to give our viewers a bit of a background like we've been reporting it's been a mean sort of issue of. hard work behind closed doors the united states has been really working hard to try to prevent palestine promptly saying this official bit to the security council the palestinian leader mahmoud abbas did go ahead with this and this is something that the united nations security council will officially be considering come once here. israel's give the go ahead for building a level one hundred homes in the disputed area of east jerusalem the e.u. reacted by saying the decision should be reversed it's likely to further complicate relations with the palestinians on the frozen middle east peace talks and mideast quartet have given israel and the palestinians until the end of twenty twelve to
2:11 pm
reach agreement just how who co-founded the israeli committee against house demolitions told me that israel doesn't need to so long as the big allies are covering its back. basically. israel has created facts on the ground over the last forty four years then it really made made its occupation irreversible i mean you've got a half a million israelis more than half a billion living in the occupied territories so that if i can't possibly see how negotiations are going to end israel's occupation i don't see any pressures to get a half a million people out and i think that's what abbas is saying. are useless either you get out of our territory period or they are there's no point in going on with the process i don't think israel has anything to worry about its point of view there are three countries that matter the other hundred ninety are irrelevant the
2:12 pm
three countries are the united states britain and germany as long as they're behind israel's policies or at least even if they criticize as long as they prevent saying sions and provide this umbrella for israel israel is so i think you worry about who's going to sanction it who's going to force it to get out who's going to put pressures on israel. coming up here on r t with me kevin no internet why immigrants in britain are doing a good job for a world of soaking up to ninety percent of vacancies in the country's bleak employment market right now the report for you coming up all of that and my way or the highway tough words from russia's president as he gives the finance minister is marching orders saying that vital military money is not up for discussion and anyone who thinks differently could also go now. seven course of the serbs have been injured in an exchange of fire between protesters and nato peacekeepers at a disputed border crossing locals playing alliance troops but nato says it responded only with rubber bullets and tear gas in self-defense after kosovo serbs
2:13 pm
attacked the checkpoint emotions been running high ever since august when kosovan police seized two border crossings at a trade dispute with serbia a local documentary maker told me that one sided nato is forcing serbia to accept its terms. this is something that is escalating the situation over there with german soldiers trying to isolate the community and turn it essential into a ghetto in this uni polar world the serbs are hoping that somebody will come to the aid because nato at this point is not really contributing to a peaceful resolution of the problems over there and nato is simply pushing ahead with it with its interests in north corso which are mainly konami it's hard to say whether the situation will get worse but mido has not refrain from using force when it needed to push for its interest in blood and sense ever since the needle bombing of serbia in one thousand nine and these conflicts are showing that they don't
2:14 pm
really care what was going to happen to the serbian civilians are unarmed civilians in kosovo that they are going to push ahead no matter what while the serbs on the other hand are fighting for their bare existence and they have no choice but to continue pushing forward to have the right to remain where they have lived for centuries in pristina governments are trying to establish so-called good relations and this is a prerequisite for joining european and the european union and this is definitely a step backward but on the other hand ever since this requirement has been imposed by relations it is more in the sense that serbia should accept everything that the international community thinks is a port in regards to kosovo well because they're getting more of a free ride but if the international community is supporting just one side it's very hard to reach a reasonable agreement jobs in the united kingdom are getting fewer and fewer and
2:15 pm
it seems the vacancies that are there are being swept up by non brits immigrants and scooping up a whopping ninety percent of positions of a bet for t. bills is why. jaymes amongst the growing ranks of an employed he's been trying to find a job in social housing since many competitions fear this fall as it's agencies now working for each job so you just find that you know looks like is about for you they will get short listed of it as look at salaries slightly less you know maybe going to go out to college and maybe do some parts on unemployment so now it eight percent the highest for fifteen years but no matter how hard jamie tries the odds are stacked against him job centers like this one helped fill one hundred eighty thousand new vacancies in the last twelve months but only eight percent of those went to british workers with foreign nationals more successful in the job market nine times out of ten reversing that train was
2:16 pm
a key election pledge of the new government promising to slash immigration but a year on it's only increased and it migration was nearly a quarter of a million last year up twenty percent on two thousand and nine and britain second biggest annual total ever way off the government's five figure target i think we're probably over promising given the restrictions that they face it didn't make sense to promise to bring the number down to an arbitrary level we've actually been having a more honest debate about the limits on what they could do you think government claims its target can be met by capping normally you immigration but that ignores how most are coming from within the e.u. we're restrictions don't apply entry numbers for eastern europeans by eight times in the last year alone as they continue to cash in on the open borders it's unlike every other measures are announced about target or not come close. as i'm likely to
2:17 pm
me to refer to measures are necessary for others the problem lies at home pretty patel's an m.p. and from an immigrant family herself she knows what it takes. to succeed here it says most don't i go back to thirty forty years ago when you seen immigrants come to this country what they wanted to is they want to work hard and get on in life they really do the families think that eccentric said you don't you days gone past three years have a tremendous british work ethic in this country we really did i think we did it to be lost some of that was it was easy to see that at the job center where most time it will migrant workers the problem is that a lot of that haiti but i got used to not there in the minimum paid jobs in the low paid work so they need to be forced into taking these jobs the government claims it's now doing just that it says we are reforming the welfare system to ensure that we in the benefit dependency which is trap so many people and finally ensure work
2:18 pm
pays but once the long term unemployed can be forced to look for jobs there's no guarantee they'll get them coming back to that immigration promise the government simply can't keep i could be in it r t london matron inventor of the search of that who whether disagrees with presidential policy should look for another job which is exactly what happened to the now former finance minister who sacked on monday. said he could work under a new government if medvedev became prime minister in a future reshuffle at the top peter oliver takes up the story. well since president medvedev came to power there were certain areas of the country ditties earmarked for spending in improvement things like improvements to the prisons and the armed forces now some of the spending policies as appears to have been in disagreement towards alexy could in force and that's why he lost his job on monday president dmitri medvedev has on tuesday possibly defended his spending policies saying this
2:19 pm
defense spending in particular was crucial to the development of russia we knew more from the way we can do without defense spending and this spending should be worthy of russia or not some banana republic or a big country a permanent member of the un security council and we have nuclear weapons that's why an increase in spending for the defense budget arms and salaries for military personnel will be the government's top priority and whoever disagrees with that can work elsewhere he said worse and with probably google missed well couldn't clearly did disagree with that and now he will be looking for work elsewhere this all really came to a head the catalyst for it being the announcement that led to me a putin will run for the presidency in twenty twelve and that he would put forward to me to be made head of as his prime minister this could in to say it's he couldn't work week. to be traded if i was prime minister to two spending policies midgette is in turn issued an ultimatum to could in saying i think gets on board
