results seem to be proving rather accurate this will not be the great victory for don't know if he will still have to form a coalition with other parties in order for his party to have the second spell of power in a row. few experts have any doubts that the prime minister would be able to form a coalition with several other parties and take a second spell at power in poland this is could be proved to be a very historic move because since nine hundred eighty nine polls have been changing their government and their ruling party every single poll has with every election this it'll be the first time since nine hundred eighty nine the same party has been reelected and the same prime minister will state power for another four years this is not a surprise to many experts as they have been many surveys and many polls suggesting that polls have been very happy with their government with the way poland handled the global recession and this is probably one of the main factors why the poles

have been voting for the prime minister spot even despite the voter turnout has been rather low for additional politically active polls and the era of power for the last four years have signified much improving relations between poland and russia in particular after the tragic smolensk crash which killed most of the country's political elite along with the country's president we are expecting that should he be confirmed as the country's prime minister for the second spell that we expect that he would not change his foreign policy and the relations with russia will stay on the same level. still to come europeans find that being protected from poverty is becoming an empty plate financially hard pressed nations target basic social programs to balance their books putting a dampener on the blocks to boast of why to go to homelessness by twenty fifteen. nato forces have adopted libya's civil war but as our team here is later troops are

ratings have recently been downgraded again raising fears of major debt problems there so russia says it's too it's too early at the moment to talk about any concrete plans to stop buying up spanish debt we want to see a unanimous plan first. artie's tom barton reporting live thanks for that. europe's social welfare programs that have been the e.u.'s pride and joy for decades face the axe as the economic crunch bites deeper among them poverty safety nets that provide food and care for those living on the streets or struggling to make ends meet as artie's daniel bushell reports from france there's always a catch to cutting back. the new motion in the european parliament claims that homelessness can be ended in the e.u. by twenty fifteen but those on the front line helping people living on the streets say this is fantasy with the numbers without a roof over their heads. with the e.u. itself about to stop

5:10 am
poverty in france is just under a thousand euros a month the state safety nets well below that meaning many a desperate five hundred euros a month is what i now get from the government step onto the roof over my head not enough to eat cash strapped e.u. governments elsewhere across the e.u. are under pressure to get more people off benefits if they don't search for a job or not enough so we can close it and make an end on the unemployment period with job seekers being squeezed belts of social security the face of europe's homeless is getting even younger could sell you we've got many young able bodied people coming to us. for the first time with the end of e.u. funding we just can't feed them anymore. because. the polls not even good economics the promise of treating health cruelly problems with the streets for. the benefit system i mean should certainly support people who are who are very poor

and cannot avoid poverty trap for all this is for me charities a humanitarian crisis as homeless numbers spiral out of control in the power of the world mean world e.u. chiefs congratulate themselves the homelessness is coming to an end. in a few minutes we report from siberia joining a group that's trying to bag a beast. expires so chances are very high to me over there in the cave in. point please discover some traces of these creatures let's go there. for the world's most elusive creature with specialists who say they are closer than ever to finding. but first to pakistan where a dozen al-qaeda linked suspects have been arrested after afghanistan demanded the u.s. put more pressure on islamabad to fight terror but that's not enough to eliminate thoughts in america that pakistan's government may be sheltering terrorists some in
5:12 am
washington are even ready to support action against islamic bad reports. the drums of war beating loud and clear washington calls pakistan a safe haven for terrorists we cannot have coming across the border attacking our forces attacking afghanistan afghanistan and then disappearing back into a safe. economy network for one acts as a veritable arm of pakistan's internal services intelligence agency pakistan is furious over the accusations calling them unsubstantiated and saying that washington came very close to losing a major ally in its war on terror if you talk about links i'm quite sure you know it says things that many terrorist organizations around the world which by which we mean intelligence things over the last ten years pakistan has repeatedly compromised its own sovereignty to help the americans in their operations the us
5:13 am
while chasing down suspected terrorists has been bombing pakistan with drones on a regular basis the strikes have killed thousands of civilians use of going attacks is not against our sovereignty it is also counterproductive it's the people of the two want to be friends in this by dickins terrorism after the latest threats from washington fearing an even tougher assault thousands of pakistanis angrily rallied to say enough is enough for these people the us is a hostile power it's china that they see is a friend in the americans in this one instance have hen did over a major hearts and minds victory to the chinese in pakistan in spring china officially notified washington that any attack on pakistan will be seen as an act of aggression against beijing the pakistani prime minister praised his country's relations with china calling them quote higher than mountains deeper than oceans
5:14 am
stronger than steel and sweeter than honey washington on the other hand seems to have mastered the art of alienating friends with pakistan. taking america's accusations that they support terrorists as a way to shift the blame for the failure of u.s. policies on pakistan but the blame game may blow up into full scale aggression the experts believe that we need to elevate our response they will have a lot of bipartisan support on capitol hill u.s. lawmakers have already signaled that if there is the will for tough action against pakistan they'll support it and when washington says the words safe haven for terrorists that's what you expect tough action and if it does happen pakistan could be the new afghanistan but with china as a friend and nuclear bombs at hand sounds like a deadly combination for the united states i'm kind of check out reporting from washington our team. at eleven thirty am g.m.t. you can watch our cues cross-talk to be focusing on what's ahead for the u.s.
5:15 am
pakistan relationship. because american and pakistani interests are so different you know afghanistan and with regard to support for these terrorist groups we could see a move of american policy from alliance with pakistan which is a nominal one it's an alliance of which both sides lie to each other it's like a very bad marriage where both sides were unfaithful to the other two containment we could see america moving towards a containing getting buckets but i don't think that's going to happen i think it's most pakistanis understand they need a good relationship going to be culturally politically there's no imperial ambition there we're trying to get out we're trying to punish the people who attacked the united states we've done some most of that and there's a lot of argument for getting out very quickly certainly obama and much of the right ministry of the republicans want to get out about going to very quickly jake if you want to jump in there. stephen there are been no constraints on the number of people that have been able to be killed ten years of this no constraints drone attacks assassinations bombing and killing of wedding parties at some point isn't

it time to say enough. russia says its veto of the latest u.n. resolution against syria was not designed to indulge president assad's regime the statement comes after a meeting between the syrian opposition and russia's presidential envoy to africa in moscow russia and china blocked the latest u.n. resolution on syria saying it could allow another libyan style scenario moscow and beijing have a new plan ready condemning both the regime and the opposition for the violence and urging them into a dialogue syria's been in chaos since mid march after protests demanding president assad step down. switching gears now a big foot has gone by many names yet he sasquatch a bunch of others and there's been the subject of many stories but actually laying eyes on one has become rather allusive proved rather elusive not everyone's given up what team of specialists think babe zeroed in on the creature's whereabouts in
