system giving america's g.p.s. a run for its money. and later in business ltd russia's my capital investment group and dutch world trading giant bitola are to jointly create one of europe's largest oil terminals one that's in the. international news line for most of this is with me you leadership of our thanks for joining us greece's forty eight hour program this is into its second day and things is bracing for another show outside parliament lawmakers there are preparing to give final approval to even more tough cuts in a desperate attempt to stave off bankruptcy wednesday's protests around one hundred thousand protesting and clashing with police and others on the streets chris hello there sara so what's today's turnout like so far. or you can probably see the

crowds behind me here outside the parliament building a larger number it seems than yesterday at the same time but again like we saw there a very inefficiently people standing out with the band and having their child stay here ahead of the vote later today we saw the initial approval of the further was there to cut yesterday and today that will be passed into the law if the vote goes to it is expected to go to it despite the severe opposition leader so yesterday the protest the standards very chaotic scenes later in the day we still tear gas and smoke filling the. day because it broke out between the face of the protests is certainly eurozone leaders it's the we'll be watching the situation it's still a closely this coming ahead of course of the summit of the week that will to be able to deliver some. rescue plan. but of course there's a lot of

a lot of concern here among sunless he said that we see in the usa needed attempt this before and fail so ahead of that certainly the same sereno going to be instilling any hope to him isn't it any one of the leaders also eurozone leaders are to meet on sunday we know to one count a solution but is there any end in sight and from your point of view what you see on the streets. well it's very difficult for the people here because as we said they've really lost the faith in their government in the eurozone leaders ability to be able to find a way out of this to find a solution certainly the solutions that have been come up with say far really haven't been tenable for the people here i mean we care about all these the stereo because there's more being voted through in the parliament today for the side she means to the people of the state has been to do good for the cause of catfights high unemployment to the country they've got a new generation of homeless people here these are people who are in the middle

classes who lost their jobs couldn't deal with the taxes couldn't make their rent enable people who are well educated and told intents and purposes credits were able to work but there simply aren't the prospects here in the country all around she carried out this belief the cost the most you can really go to the decline you can see the economy faltering the shops everywhere closing of people we speak to businesses said about the marks difference very profitable business is the goal and now it's struggling and this is something that affects everyone and you can see this how the phrase that's the way down there on the street it's a protest of all ages you got people who are in the school years sixteen seventeen rise up to pensioners this is affected every single person here and that's why you see these numbers turn to go was being a very different with this protest is that the ship is gale of it we saw yesterday tens of thousands of people the public can go where. building it this

a cruise from athens for the whole country really a different approach now for the usa needs to show that they're able to it does because otherwise we're going to see more of this if it's a vicious cycle over these protests happening in the stairs the measures being put in place and on the state what people are saying is they've lost face in their government why do they even have to vote if the government already going to have it in the country you're saying not just a financial deficit that they say they have a democratic that says well. sarah first from athens on these ongoing pro protests are many thanks for that update. things on this whole better over in america where thousands of people are digging with their and to call for protests it's week five of the occupy wall street rally and they call against a bloated banks and washington's weakness and doing something about it the growing gap between rich and poor is something which could cause the government dia's get in their chicken explains. a class war seemed impossible in

a country worth being wealthy east part of the national dream but a spouse on the march on wall street and in other parts of america protesting against the system that they claim which only for the benefit of those super rich individuals and corporations many ask whether america is facing a class war that a time when the we're getting richer while the middle class is collapsing claris war is being waged in a burka today unfortunately the wrong side is winning the super cold one percent of winners are the nation's top corporations which this year in the economy is very slow growth as non the less made record profits the things to various loopholes but these corporations pay little or nothing in parts of the corporations say they need the tax breaks to be able to invest more in to hire more america's second largest energy producers chevron is now lobbying not to let the government tax them more and to my question how many of. chevron hired since the tax breaks were introduced

in two thousand and four the c.e.o. of the company said speech there were up slightly a few thousand in our upstream business over the years but not significantly not significantly on our chevron payroll a few thousand jobs for the billions of dollars in tax stimulus that the government gave the economy same erika's largest corporations are sitting on more than three trillion dollars and not investing in the economy unemployment in the us remains over nine percent when we live in a nation where corporations could profit off a child dying at the same time with their parents in a bankruptcy because they're trying to pay for these kids medical bills. what does that say about our country the wall street answer to people's rage and if you kill . will be nobody held three jobs but as one of the protesters try to put a word of objection call an old on hold on it's not your show monkey i'm talking to

these people hold on i'm not talking to you you can. talk you through your personal success and money has always been part of the american dream the rich the aspiration to become rich is deeply ingrained in american society and widely promoted by pop culture but those who took to the streets have made it clear that the situation when the rich are getting richer and the poor are getting poorer is not their idea of the american dream in fact it could be the end of it and the beginning of a class war i'm going to check our reporting from washington our team. and among the occupy wall street protesters biggest grievances is the huge influence that america's big business has on washington political and social and this general semantics says the two hundred trick of lending. bailing out the too big to fail as the rich bankers the federal reserve dumping trillions of dollars worldwide that it's in the capital it's been a takeover it's one big corporate takeover named the industry there's

a handful of people writing your culture communications you go down the list whether it's retail whether it's the military so yes wall street is why she did washington is wall street used to be the most egalitarian nation on earth until the republicans and democrats started in regulating the wars that made us put all the play in the power of the day you want to start a business bob if you're going to create several hundred jobs we'll give you tax breaks guaranteed you know what is the structure but if you're an entrepreneur and want to start a business boy they got the state agencies the local agencies they have everybody down on your back getting licenses and making sure you abide by the letter of the law poverty regulating mood about deregulating the average person out there. on the way later this hour is face fighting continues between former rebels and gadhafi loyalists for the last remaining leavin stronghold we get an eyewitness to

a concrete legally binding agreement which has to be bilaterally signed up as we go u.s. and russia the treaty has to be ratified in the corresponding chambers of parliament because it must not only contain a word like our anti missile defense system is not against you well up our anti missile defense system is not for you. it must be a serious documents russia has to assume the extent of trust in the verification of all the rest is useless scrap paper like a proposal to russia to send specialists to monitor missile defense test might that's just a holiday what's not serious. is when you declare this year's one of remembrance for the country's holocaust victims but that doesn't include focusing on the brutality that people endured and that the nazis as artie's put us labor force is trying to sue the survivors instead who wants to be known as a nation of of killers lithuanian is the only language which is even a special word coined that melancholy the shooters of jewels and in world war two

far right model that posits that communism a nazi is a more equal lithuania officially recognizes that crimes committed by the soviet union and nazi regimes are equal and other european states to do the same the nazi crimes should not be excused merely because if you want there were some crimes for all of them we have a story there in comparatively worse they were genocide. they were trying to wipe out a whole people and so instead of focusing on an eighty six year old holocaust survivor many say lithuanian authorities should rather at least be opening an investigation and doesn't really made faces willing to participate in an investigation for the reasons he believes and the lithuanians are trying to run from one if they really are going to. we go out it will bring out everything will be. and in the long run that seems the last thing the country would want. r.t.
