debt the deal was reached during an emergency summit in brussels which continued well into the night among other measures the eurozone and i.m.f. will give the country another one hundred billion euros in rescue. agreement on expanding the bailout fund to one trillion europe all that follows immense pressure on e.u. leaders after all delays and crisis action promises obvious solution marshall. global investment strategist at madison street partners says the european financial system is to blame for the current. it's fundamentally unfair look for the problem of the whole. e.c.b. or abroad the eurozone economy is one of financial architecture you've got to go back to this flawed financial architecture would started with with the currency union without a fiscal union but we were all told that one ball was the same as another whether it be an italian bond or a german boy and. to be the rules of the games have been have been changed in the

bank has been forced to take this haircut in effect being punished for the wrong thing the response has been completely the wrong way around the the problem is fundamentally one of national solvency is the bonds are trading at very distressed levels because these countries are all perceived to be insolvent it's not just greece it will move on to portugal italy spain and maybe ultimately france and germany so you have to first deal with the problem of national solvency and the way you do that is by creating a mechanism whereby all the bonds are deemed to be money good and you can only do that by and by when the european central bank once you deal with the national solvency problem you won't have this issue of the these distressed ball. and therefore you won't be needing the safety substantial haircuts and you won't need the substantial banking recapitalization the banking recapitalization in any case will create a huge debt deflation spiral because all the banks they won't want to raise money at these prices and so will try to shed assets and if they do it all once it will create an even bigger economic disaster. and whether the e.u. ante crisis plan is effective or not for the austerity hits greek people and help

me a long way off finding new ways to survive in hard times is not is surface reports . they say that time is money for a country where cash is now in short supply time has taken on a whole different value the time bank quick change want to services and sometimes they give a painting lessons for free but they take you for free also somebody else is teaching yoga the time banks just one of a growing number of service swapping alternatives that are providing people in greece another way to cope with the tough economic conditions services can include anything from language classes to babysitting all him kids' meals huge huge everything we do without money like looking after people are making things by ourselves for a country in crisis building social unity can prefix dreamy hard crisis a terrible thing it be creates fear it divides people from public sector workers

from private sector workers it divides richer workers to poor workers immigrant workers from home workers and that's a terrible thing. for the past the networks have been a great way of bringing together large groups of people the populous slogan here in greece now is no one's alone in the crisis organizations are arranging swap shops to exchange plays one town in greece is even started saying bharti currency we still have the memory of. agricultural society in greece where people used to do things together like they would do the olive tree of my family this week and then next week we go the olive trees of your family and then the next week of the other neighbor so they would exchange services and they like that nicky gives me and her friend alexander he's also a member of the time bank and i. lesson it's one of the free services she provides

and in exchange alexandra helps out with the gardening so the time is repaid it's an amazing way. of receiving finally by giving to the other. many greeks struggle with wage cuts tax increases and with unemployment in the country now cripplingly high there's been huge interest in the time banks and bars and networks this place is in the cave of materials it's no wonder really that this idea of swapping gets in services has proven so popular it's building solidarity a time when the economic situation is extremely uncertain. networks won't solve greece's financial problems they do provide a massive amount of support the participants it's not to respond to. crisis in the sense that it's going to overturn the god but it's giving support to

comfort like to overturn the terrible economic policies that are being posed by the troika it's giving people support to feel that they can do something. with the tough economic times leaving many greeks feeling worthless there is real value in projects like the time bank with the greek government drowning in debt these creative solutions are offering any support but encouragement to the people here which at a time of deep recession uprooting priceless commodities surf r.t. athens. look closely at the way greeks are venting their anger at their economic plight. is a failed state. and i want to answer that from right granny in this image here you see right granny well i think she's saying no greece is not a failed state it's an occupied state because they're not asking this question

about iceland are they now know because iceland stood up to the bankers whereas greece is still being subjugated by the tyranny of the bankers and this granny here who you see throwing rocks the police she is a good emblem for what the cops store for them and the politicians are greece as the things heat up in greece hopefully the banks in greece will completely collapse and this will be the only saving grace for greek sovereignty. the family of co gadhafi is preparing to sue nato for the air strike on his convoy but that to his violent death at the hands of m.t.c. fighters the family lawyer said that the alliances actions were clearly aimed at overthrowing the colonel and not protecting civilians meanwhile even with gadhafi gone the country's future looks far from secure from tripoli and he said the way since this report. the war is over but the weapons are

fully loaded. human rights watch has expressed grave concern about leftover arms in libya their number one fear warehouse thought to hold ground to air missile which could in the wrong hands take down passenger aircraft it's through made so our nato allies in the region which these weapons have been flooding libya and also libya is quite a world country anyway the population has has quite a lot of light weapons in its possession and those light weapons are becoming a heavy burden on the national transitional council now relying on an army of former rebels for security they would try to control the bends i mean if there is somebody who has weapon we ask him if he has a thursday show for this we are not. talking the. checkpoints have been

set up across tripoli to check that those carrying weapons have proper documentation and those who do have the paperwork are being called on by the national transition committee to return their arms the question now is what if they don't and what does that mean up for parts gadhafi libya and its stability and now as you can see is being secured here everything is under control and the only word thing that will make some how to give back the weapons but we see something very different i asked the head commander what the plan is to disarm the population to be i swear i don't know if you look. at the home we have some of the c.d.i. men who were in the path of manhood and a makeshift arms collection center that covers one neighborhood in the capital we're showing. you these are the weapons people brought to me today not many.

walk down one block in tripoli and you'll see twice as many firearms. so you know how many weapons there are in libya i can dislike have to have instead of yeah i think everybody have a weapon some think the fun of arms in the country could spell disaster ahead in the vacuum after gadaffi and post recall chaos as groups fight out vicious battle for power. what you have now in libya is schools of armed factions who have no respect for each other and who have no respect for may to actually either they've opportunistically used mate so to achieve some aims and nato has been foolish enough to go along with this so i think what we're going to see now is the intensification of the civil war between increasingly the factions which have overthrown with the gadhafi regime with many libyans not yet ready to say a farewell to arms the end to the sea which could only be good daffy with nato

how is now asking the alliance to continue with mission a vivid indication of just how unstable the country is and he said no way are teeth tripoli. or pepe escobar a columnist and correspondent for the asia times thinks the outlook for the country is bleak and sees comparisons between what happened in sirte with events in iraq seventy years ago. lou jet at the end of two thousand and four you know cooked over two thousand and eleven what the marines did which was to destroy the norther to say that they need to did to see what didn't do when people say no he's going to. need to end it here and see the civil war in libya it's already are they will never set up a government because they're militias fighting against militias so what i predict is the wonder of libya resources nato running libya as
