and it's now getting to to crunch point and the deal that was reached last thursday was was a nothing deal really because it doesn't address the fundamental issues that there is too much in the sovereign debt in the u.n. it's unsustainable in my view the best the best option for the greeks is to default of course that there is a much bigger financial consequences for the for the rest of europe and for the rest of the world. if that happens but if we're talking about what is in the best interests of the greek people then then then that's probably the best outcome effectively great defaults then you have to look at who actually owns the debt and that's principally owned by other sovereigns by the e.u. and by by the banks and pension funds and the consequences of that is that it would make the financial system the banking system much less stable and the worry is of
1:06 am
the snowball effect and how they would face the banks and then other european sovereigns and whether that would then lead to further defaults in a number of sovereign defaults at the same time. on our web site r.t. dot com we're asking what you think lies behind the greek prime minister surprise decision to hold a referendum on the belo deal now here's how the whole stacks up right now nearly forty percent think the prime minister made of why step towards the population have their say about a third think the move is pure populism to quell protests there are split between two opinions where the decision is a knife in the u.s. back or pop and really looking for a pathway to an order of retirement. with greece already up to its neck in economic and political turmoil it seems yet another crisis could be around the corner we report from athens where the anti immigration sentiment is reaching a boiling point adding to be existing route of austerity anger and desperation and in our business bulletin across the market's reaction to the approval of the bailout deal referendum. continue their marching to read greek prime minister's

in our discussions with them of some of these governments they're taking them very seriously because they know that this will cause problems in the future they want them addressed now trying to support the more open minded and democratic minded forces within the new authorities and to move libya in the right direction so there is concern and i think that the governments are nervous about this these tensions the revenge and they're trying to take steps to to quell it. as libya and the wider region undergo drastic change will continue examining the role of foreign intervention in the arab spring.
