the tax is expected to bridge a gap in the country's budget but people say they can't afford to pay for watched a protest or it's happening right after this what you're seeing here some rays being blocked the protesters are being pushed down i'll sometimes say you can head to take gas going off again we said the situation looking like he was going to escalate and it seems that that will that's what we're seeing we've seen a huge amount of the riot place pushing the crowds. it's been a struggle here to get the situation under control for the first time in this country you're seeing people below the poverty line being taxed they simply don't have that money and they're calling on eurozone leaders now to be realistic the talk is certainly turning to that as a greek default and listed here has said to us there really is a case of how that happens whether it's a controls to focus on greece's turns over the e.u. leaders will again play by their rules and for that benefit really that the greek

prime minister george papa j has been having meetings in berlin he said he thought the country could get out of this crisis and we had the german chancellor saying much the same thing everyone hyping that the situation doesn't once again descend into violence like we've seen happen before but unfortunately that is the level of anger today amongst the greek people people we've been speaking to saying they can't afford their rent they can't afford to support their families the visa applications the greeks wanting to leave the pros has risen dramatically extremely volatile situation that simply fed up with what they see as a complete and utter widening between what the people are asking for a lot of the leaders and pushing through the years a leaders at the moment are still as yet to decide on whether to provide that eight billion a year a cash injection that greece they desperately needs and still that the attention they will. the everything that the kid wants to see. then anyone could

leave and not really. the end of the year is a. really the bring the green lights of the country down the pretense that it's not like that but it's disease. was. it can all make us as demetri casinos things that the only way out of the crisis for greece is to default on its debts before it's too late. they need to default on their debt if they want the austerity measures to work because right now you have austerity with tax increases and a giant that you're not going to get anywhere and the greek economy is contracting so if it if it continues in this way in the short term long term it just means. because you have this giant that's not going to go away that goes for ireland and portugal and spain as well and perhaps italy but i think that the smartest thing

for the e.u. and the i.m.f. to do if they really want a solution would be a structured default of greece of portugal of ireland probably spain as well in some sort of way and to allow some of those turns to countries especially greece for example for the public sector to issue dragons again it doesn't mean that eurozone have to circulate but it would mean a kind of currency system in long term the euro is not going to survive the reason that we're seeing in terms of national policies overriding pan european policy i don't think they're going to be able to create a fiscal treasury and fiscally integrate europe but in the short term the e.u. may stay alive if they allow some of the other countries to begin to issue their own currencies and partially default on their debts. i would like to hear your views on the crisis in greece and you can head to our website at home if you want to take part in our latest poll and we're asking all do you think greek and e.u. needed that discussing behind the scenes around fifteen percent percent of you think it bad to buy eighteen how far the bailouts can stretch about a quarter believe that looking at how to manage a control default and

a minority believe they might be analyzing whether greece should exit the euro zone but so far the most popular response is a rather tiny cheek one suggesting talks are focusing on how politicians can escape from angry voters so please have your say you had an all to r.t. dot com at the cost your vote. will be no now several says have reportedly been injured in clashes with nato troops as violence has once again flared at the kosovo border it's believed alliance peacekeeping forces try to dismantle the road barricades that have biceps the troops say they use rubber bullets and tear gas on a fellow defend what is said in news agency claims live rounds were used and has distributed pictures showing x. ray images of gunshot wounds the tensions began in july when of course one authorities tried to seize the checkpoints to enforce that you lateral trade embargo on this impure agents who protest against it and that's how the barricades on the roads and the bo'sun knowledge said then historian and author says that nato

is actually only make a tense situation away. needed and she'll be outside the bounds of my it's mandate it is not supposed to be a law enforcement agency for government to push you know it is it wasn't supposed to see these so-called customs posts in the first place and it certainly is institutionally shooting you don't peacefully protesting the turn of events it's very easy to improve the situation by not making it worse in the first a spine not deploying these troops in support of. actually street street oh no to be had been deployed be creative just as well as retreated like they did back in july and august again needing comancheros to escalate and they are giving us this time. to order and criminal elements and therefore mushroom along womens' in this case. you know with the answer to come in the program a look at the western strategy for syria. what they're trying to achieve is to put their man in power that's the whole quest of us foreign policy so bad calls for

immediately functions against a mosque is a drop from the draft resolution as russia and china go for the government and opposition to negotiate. that later but now israel says it's not going back to the self-imposed ban on building settlements in occupied palestinian territory and is plowing ahead with construction of them the moves drawing strong opposition from israel's allies who say it's counterproductive to the peace process washington and london have described the discussion decision rather as a disappointing and illegal while the u.s. the construction plans should be revised but israel maintains it will keep building something the palestinians say rules out towards between the two sides the international middle east peace quartet comprised of russia the you as the e.u. and the un called for bilateral negotiations to resume within a month but our next thing it's now highly unlikely to happen. basically. israel has created facts on the ground over the last forty four years that have

really made made its occupation irreversible i mean you've got half a million this rabies more than half a million living in the occupied territories so that it's i can't possibly see how we. are going to end israel's occupation i don't see any procedures to get a half a million people out and i think that's what abbas is saying is are you serious either you get out of our. period or there or there's no point in going on with the process i don't think israel has anything to worry about from its point of view there are three countries that matter the other hundred ninety are irrelevant to this three countries are the united states britain and germany as long as they're behind israel's policies or least even if they. as long as they prevent saying and provide this for israel israel so i think we're going to saying he's going to force

us to get out was going to pressures on israel. israel's announcement of a new settlement construction comes as the u.n. security council prepares to consider the palestinian bid for membership at the world body on wednesday the latter has promised to veto the move but russia and several other members of the council say they'll support the palestinians even in washington. the palestinians could still gain an elevated legal status in the un train assembly where they have a majority support now. you know without she's still ahead speaking out but then being shouted down. here in america we're very proud of for freedom of speech and the right to speak this is considered a holy except if you see the wrong you can get in trouble so american celebrities are told to keep quiet by fellow citizens for speaking their minds about sensitive issues so we've got the details coming out. you countries have dropped their call for immediate sanctions against syria the u.n.

draft resolution has been softened and now threatening sanctions only the government doesn't stop its crime down on the opposition that crowd down currently continues the syrian army has deployed tunks and armored vehicles to the town of ras time russia has been calling on both sides in the six month long conflict to hold talks as opposed sanctions and take it all around and president told the washington based freedom foundation their real name of any western intervention would be putting them in power. sanctions have never succeeded in achieving regime change which is what the u.s. goal is and then let's keep in mind that this was a dictatorship that the u.s. government used one time to torture. me may our air are they supported mubarak they support the dictatorships in saudi arabia jordan. but what they're trying to achieve is to put their man in power that's the whole quest of us foreign policy so there's a lot of hypocrisy here too as well this is something that the syrian people should

decide not the u.s. government it's none of the u.s. government's business this revolution is an hour of regimes should be up to the people of that country because as we all know the price can sometimes be very high in revolutions and that's why it's up to the people of that country to make that decision. using humanitarian explanations for justifying it nor bloody interventions colonial imperative isn't so says british author and journalist simon jenkins the full interview is coming up in about twenty minutes but here's a preview. i do not believe the sovereign states have legal rights or an obligation or a duty to interfere no the sovereign states has written to the united nations charter this is not a country to threaten britain didn't threaten its neighbors and invaded and. is going about its own business if you've got a revolution it was it. sure lost of things with the nasty things happen over the world. the excuse that there might have been something nasty about to happen the

justification for invading to invade a country bombing its capital is i find quite extraordinary it's an it's a noble concept of we tend to intervene in countries where we have some interest in this case or we tend to intervene where we think almost quick glory to be had as was the case of iraq and was the case of those is more responsibility there is no british anymore. let's move on now and right now let's check some other news in brief from across the wild nato officials say the least spice is hiding in residential areas of bani walid and putting more than two hundred thousand libyans in danger from allied as tribes and the time from on to get out of school says severe food water and power shortages have also been reported meanwhile u.s. media says that an estimated twenty thousand hate seeking missiles will start in

news for instance on t.v. dot com. welcome back it seems the land of the free is not what it used to be according at least to some american celebrities who have been forced to publicly eat humble pie. and while we can say about should anything about a u.s. president freedom of speech doesn't seem to apply to some of the topics in america he's going to check on. an american icon legendary singer world war two veteran and pacifist tony bennett has come under fire for speaking his mind on a radio talk show he said america's actions of raud have provoked terror with the terrorists are we the terrorists or are they the terrorists well two wrongs don't make a right they are the ones who started with the plane flying into the world trade center what do you know i don't know about tony bennett was attacked afterwards with stinging criticism from some quarters then he went to great lengths to apologize to those his remarks may have offended i'd like to say that i am sorry if

my state certainly suggested anything other than an expression of my love for my country america calls itself the land of the free but some are asking why our living legend like tony bennett has to apologize for his thoughts there's no tolerance really for any deviation from the official law even though here in america we're very proud of our freedom of speech and the right to speak his skin siddur holy except if you say the wrong things you can get in trouble and artists have musicians have now tony bennett to speak question freedom of speech proved no defense in protecting the jobs of a number of probably figures in america sacked after comments that appeared to challenge conventional u.s. establishment views journalist helen thomas who'd been a white house reporter for over half a century was forced to resign after she said he's really should leave land they taken from palestinians everybody has been fired for what they say these days you

can but not if you say anything about the president of the united states you can call him anything in the book but you can't say anything about israel. that automatically makes you any semantic c.n.n.'s former senior editor of middle east affairs. was sacked a year ago because of a tweet she wrote about her respect for a lebanese cleric who had one time had been seen as the spiritual leader of the has a law that had later broken ties with sponsor all sorts all of that was promptly pushed out of the u.s. mainstream media it's all about consequences social and economic just pressure rather than real censorship politicians expressing ideas against the establishment if you come under fire true like congressman ron paul who is running for president some in law and i don't hide i have been a christian. they have been explicit and they wrote. there we are can

act we attack america because you had bases on our holy land in saudi arabia you do not give. fair treatment and you have been bombing. i didn't say that i'm trying to get you to understand what the motive was behind the bombing at the same time we have been bombing and killing hundreds of thousands of iraqis here near would you be annoyed if you're not annoyed by who got in there some problem booed and labeled unpatriotic by some just like tony bennett was when he spoke his mind it's not so much about what these people said that led to them being booed or even being fired from their jobs but rather about the fact that in a country that prides itself on freedom of speech that freedom often comes at a hefty price i'm going to check our reporting from washington are to. remember you can access news of days and latest videos online by logging on to website home and

what you can find there right now face is getting serious by launching its own political community to strengthen its nothing come out on capitol hill. watch images are now you tube channel the powerful typhoon in the front that slammed into the philippines causing hundreds of thousands to pretty much noise a waiting line for you. more news today volumes again flared up. in these are the images the world has been seeing from the streets of canada. a giant corporations rule the day. millions of children across india give up their childhood dreams to help support their families by working in cotton fields but while they earn a dollar

a day rights activists say they lose a lot more and they warned that little is done to protect children from being physically emotionally or sexually abused. recalled. from across the street sixteen year old naveen persaud can hear the chatter of children a few years younger than him going to school but his school going days are long gone for saad was taken out of school to work on cotton plantations with the dream of making money for his family i went to the russian foreign to six pm every day twenty six of us children work i came home as i was in the work i did. he was promised the equivalent of around two dollars per day but left the plantation that summer with nothing are to obtain this hidden camera video from social workers who use these visuals to provide evidence to policemen in the area so they could conduct a raid and save the children the social workers say that these children are regularly

sleep deprived hungry overworked and oftentimes physically verbally and sexually abused. we need to highlight that the field of the. just produced with the. children but. we have seen in many cases if you know look it's been right the children are taken to the cotton plantations each summer and used to pick cotton their fingers are better able to pick the plants and the farmers can lower costs by paying them less than adults usually agents or middlemen bring the children to plantations about three hundred kilometers from their village for work they say they're just trying to help the kids make money and that they too ended up getting cheated in the process when the. legal one who. can give him a lot of the move commission. in many rural parts of india schools for children above the age of fourteen are rare so parents like the ones in this village believe that

if they send their kids away to work for the summer at least they won't have to worry about how to feed them. they're going to vehicle come here a big them up and they will just go and work for two months they were told it was a secure place and the children really grew seventeen million children in this country are engaged in labor work agriculture is actually not included in the child labor prevention act seventy percent of india's economy is dependent on agriculture so many people argue that banning it would actually prevent children from working in the fields with their parents experts say that it's a problem that stretches far beyond india these plantations harvest bt cotton the scientific abbreviation for genetically modified cotton monsanto an american agricultural company that critics say has a monopoly on agricultural practices around the world sells bt seeds to these farmers those familiar with the child labor situation say that these multinational

companies should better investigate and be more responsible about where their seeds are going to ensure that the seeds aren't used to harvest crops with child labor boss you. many international companies are investing and involved have to be to move the cost of production is too high and multinational companies like that work for now the victims of this mass the scare children can barely speak about their time at the plantation. i came back home now i want to go back there twenty six of us were cheated by then it. cheated out of a childhood reading to make a buck preassure there are t. india. and i will back with a recap all main stories in just a few moments followed by an interview of british author and journalist simon jungians but first kareen is here with a bit. o. welcome to a business stop at this hour thanks for joining me the speedy reform of russia's

banking sector may fall victim to the sacking of finance minister. richard haynesworth trading believes that new measures to make it more transparent well now inevitably be delayed. everything is put into question by the changes in the ministry of finance. however there are questions that need to be decided also you have to bear in mind the term of office for mystic motive is coming to an end and so the question is who is going to replace mr not to all questions of future reform are probably going to have to wait until we see who the new head of the central bank is going to be a but they do need to be reforms to the situation around bunch of moscow situation so school all of the points that were bought three of will have to be looked up so there are areas where reform is needed in the investors are looking. at let's take a look at the markets always seeing you sort of losses ahead of reports that may

signal a slowdown and corporate growth investors expect because to show that u.s. durable goods orders fell and that european consumer confidence declined to review loans pember brand glenn is trading at around one hundred six dollars per barrel while. eighty three dollars per barrel stocks in asia mostly lower away this day westerners are concerned about europe's willingness to resolve the region's debt crisis banks sang is continuing losses while the nikkei slipped into the red but it's now actually pointing upwards financials are still on the rise although the gains are now more modest no more holdings and guy was securities groups are all around one percent each. and less than two hours before the opening bell in moscow the russian markets closed mixed on monday the r.t.s. ended lots of negative while the music's gain one and a half percent. which is markets have enjoyed a strong start to the week in part this has been due to optimism that europe's

leaders are making progress on increasing the bailout fund for indebted nations mark rubenstein a metropole says that markets are yet to price in reports that greece has passed an unpopular property tax in order to meet its fiscal targets and get a new bailout. on the heels of the vote in the greek parliament last night i think the market got another indication that the. debt problems in the euro zone have been addressed and we might see a continuation of the rally that we saw yesterday today particularly against the backdrop of rising expectations that b.c.b.s. going to act next thursday when it has another scheduled meeting. that's for this album bob with more and it's just about time.
