increase their contributions even more a lot of the general public say that that's simply not. now what a lot of people have been saying a lot of analysts we spoke into has said that it's not really a question of whether or not this space is going to gay people think that it will get a free it's going to be a question of the majority of the german chancellor merkel guys and that's really going to be the test and the signal to be sent around the world about how much support this has because of course moving forward there are going to be more decisions to be made in this is what everyone is now looking for at this time is a very strong response to this problem and they want to see the e.u. leaders meeting in threes and this is really why this vote in berlin is going to impose it of course the aftereffects of that going to impact what happens here in greece moving forward again with the bad out funds and the next tranche of money that they'll be needing before they run out of money. and how will today's vote. he

expects to impart the struggling greek economy. list with the money the next cash injection that they need that's really very very crucial again is told that they will get that but that hasn't been announced yet and without that money they're simply not going to be able to pay the bills pay people salaries even so it is extremely important now we've called the choice called it seems here at the moment they're going to be holding talks looking at how greece is dealing with the debt crisis whether they're meeting the demands that were set for them now we know the property tax was passed on cheese they know that. they've been the way for the choice it's come back and again another signal that the greek government trying to do everything that they can but again that's again prefix to me unpopular here amongst the greek public they say these increasing taxes these very severe austerity measures are simply crippling them and there's no way that they can live with them and not only that they're not going to be able to pay it again and alice

i was speaking to was saying you know this property taxes in the greek government have made sure that they're on the right track but actually that's supposed to raise about a t.v. billion year deficit in the budget and realistically the people i've been speaking to said you know people simply can't pay that so the actual money that that will raise is going to be more in the region of the millions so it's a very tricky time these measures that are being imposed here in greece whether they'll be effective and again as he said the biggest thing at the moment is that people are really now looking for decisive leadership decisive action it's a very serious problem not just among series in countries remember not just with increases affects other countries such as spain and italy and the big ones you know if greece pulls then those countries will be next and says absolutely crucial now other countries such as germany make the strong decisions take the right action and ensure that the situation doesn't get even worse right artie's for reporting for us from our friends thank you. the commission president insisted greece will remain in

new york. so far there is about six security council members on record that have thrown their support behind the palestinian bid a total of nine out of the fifteen countries need to support the application and there has to be no vetoes none of the veto wielding members of the security council should cast a veto as we know the united states a staunch ally of israel has vowed to veto palestinian bid for u.s. membership if it house to israel is very much opposed to this the us president barack obama said the only way that there can be independent palestinian state is if the palestinians and the israelis get back to the negotiation table and discuss the middle east peace plan that comes to fruition so at this point some critics say the palestinian campaign for you another ship is doomed to hell but the palestinians are very appreciative that security council is moving so quickly and

at the very least this is bringing to it bringing attention to a problem that has lasted for decades and has not yet been solved there has been condemnation coming from the international community against israel's plan to expand its settlements russia has said it's deeply concerned with the plan and hopes that it would be revised the united states and european union also voiced criticism of this plan some critics say that this settlement expansion is actually a violation of international law and if anything israel's actions can be seen as provoking and already sensitive circumstance not helping to reach. ultimate peace agreement the palestinian authority say that israel clearly with this move is not serious about peace whatsoever and we can imagine that a lot of the diplomatic negotiations will continue taking place to make sure that maybe israel will. take its plan on expanding settlements because if those

settlements do. and the palestinian president said there will be no kind of business as usual i know with direct talks with the israelis and earlier murray an important sat down with prominent academic professor noam chomsky he thinks that countries that still oppose palestinian independence should be forced to reconsider there's a choice between security and expansion very clear to others israel is like the other states it's preferred for since your early seventy's it's had a choice between security and expansion and have to ease but not with the expansion into the territory which incidentally is recognized to be criminal but every one of the get away with it as long as the most powerful street will be back and as long as you are close on that's where we now stand and it's up to the people the industrial countries component of government to go along with the world.

officially from russia the u.s. and europe all over the place with one of the reasons the chinese are developing their own space program is that they weren't invited to join the hyacinths they were even refused permission just to visit the station russia and europe had nothing against it so we have to bear in mind that china is a different civilization it was once willing to go hand in hand with us of the americans but will simply go their own separate way so this launch is the first step to their room module based space station which they plan to start building in two thousand and eighteen. it's shifting gears now the mainstream media thrown into a tailspin after an independent trader told the b.b.c. how the world of big money and politics looks from the inside are his christina reports from washington on why this was such an eye opener for many. the governments don't rule the world goldman sachs rules the world it was the comment

special interest on wall street the insurance industry these guys these are the people who are writing the laws that obama is passing they are keeping him in power they're the ones that have financed this campaign and the laws are being written for their benefit. as anger builds here perhaps better questions need to be asked here so that a different message is sent to decision makers here that the system that has been sustained and protected for decades might need to change in washington christine for r.t. . take a look now at some other stories making headlines across the globe u.s. police have arrested a twenty six year old man charging him with plotting an attack on the u.s. capitol and the pentagon using a remote controlled model aircraft packed with explosives f.b.i. investigators had been monitoring the suspect for months undercover federal agents provided him with fake c four explosives as part of
