talks to form a temporary governing coalition after narrowly winning a crucial confidence vote in parliament but the country's future nonetheless remains far from clear the main opposition party has demanded snap elections it wants george papandreou out of the government at the center of firth reports from the greek capital tonight. there's a lot of confusion about what that coalition government is going to look like we saw the passenger and his government by that called insulation in parliaments in the early hours of the morning it was very very close it was always going to be it was a way decisions but no changes really everyone still waiting to see what the details of this will fade and as we said before the devil really is in the details and so a lot of uncertainty still remains about what's going to happen now moving forward to help guide us a bit see this political quagmire i'm joined by. professor of economics at athens university. it's very uncertain what's going to happen now can you tell us

a bit more about what the politicians are doing and we've heard a lot of people saying they're playing political games can they afford to do that at such a critical point while the big picture is not what happened in greece is what happened yes the g twenty when they couldn't agree on anything so not agreeing on anything means that austerity packages will continue as the only policy coming out of the euro zone the pressure on politicians of the central left and center right because of the stereotype measures is that the leader of the right wing party wants quick elections so he could do well and not be implicated in any of the austerity packages we've had so far were asked up and drove a leader of the center left party doesn't want quick elections because he's deeply implicated in these policies and wants a national government a government of national unity so that the responsibility for the austerity package is shared with if you will army sara there is one missing actresses and that is the

people of greece who have been demonstrating for the last six months from the street and really i see no solution that doesn't at least meet some of their demands for your stereotype recession more austerity measures vicious cycle being removed somehow being. and political leaders actually addressing the social needs of the people in this country and indeed of european peace that really is a very valid point what a lot of people are talking about here today is that is the missing ingredient that public opinion here very very disappointed at the end i don't think yesterday at the what we see him playing out in the last week really as he said that message of uncertainty at a time when what everyone was hoping for was a unified front for some decisive action and that's not what we're seeing it's all in of course moving forward the situation looking on increasingly unstable ground so to further correspondent in athens all sorts of us would advise a patrick young who told me that the rest of the euro zone's feeling the heat of

political fallout from greece as his government fails to bring the financial situation under control. the whole situation we have here is a pole little disaster area i realize we're talking about economics but the problem is as we've been hearing the greek politicians have decided to have an overall political argument and that's basically holding the rest of the euro zone's around the sun this week we've had happened trying very very hard to sort of renegotiate in some way shape or form with the e.u. and the euro zone stood firm wide because again it's politics mrs merkel can't afford to spend any more money or she won't get reelected mr sarkozy he needs to get results and he's just had a complete disaster of a g. twenty meeting where he promised so much and failed to deliver anything and therefore greece is now hanging on the end of a thread more or less dying go over a cliff it's going to go bankrupt and it's probably going to take the euro zone with it and that really is a tragedy and i actually think for the rest of the euro zone it would be

a lot better to throw out the rawest member of the night club at the moment and therefore hopefully everybody else will get back to their drinks and they will sit around and they will behave like good corporate citizens and acutely that means obviously italy because this is a big festering sore the problem of the italian government and its complete so far inability to manage to get its house in order. coming up later in the program fighting corporate evil india's forging a little more than widen the gap between rich and poor making some resort to drastic measures as we find out a bit later next up but a widespread concern is that u.s. police are becoming increasingly heavy handed in breaking of the anti corporate occupy protests that have gripped the country for me two months now officers used force to disperse a demo in the u.s. capitol and take tense the three activists were struck the driver wasn't charged and the california city of oakland police unleashed some buttons on protesters

arrested more than one hundred several were seriously injured including a u.s. army veteran it's the second incident of police brutality the city's witnessed in a fortnight meantime in new york where the occupy movement began protesters camped out in zuccotti park are bracing themselves for a showdown. when to find out what authorities in the big have in store for. the occupy wall street movement has cemented its presence here in zuccotti park for nearly eight weeks but now many believe that the city will try to evacuate the demonstrators under the pretext of crime new york city mayor michael bloomberg is now accusing these activists of the danger in the entire community saying they are failing to report crimes that are taking place here the activists here say that they try to police minor infractions but when it comes to very serious crime or violence these activists say they do take reports to the police some media outlets

have also reported that it is actually new york city police officers some at least that have encouraged criminals and homeless people to come down to do coffee park in an effort to stir up some trouble the n.y.p.d. has denied those accusations we did speak with a few of the hundreds of activists that are down here and here's what they had to say my experience has been. and i say here and i feel safe here but i think that you know the mayor is discussing things quick crimes that aren't haven't been reported what are those crimes that you think the mayor is probably gearing up to make another attempt to turn the us from the park simply because someone walked into the park doesn't mean that they're part of the movement a lot of these out with that even critical of us characterize anyone who is within you know a mile radius of this place as a protester and therefore reflective of our movement but as you can see anyone can come in here and that's fine you know we want to welcome people in but certainly because someone's destructive doesn't mean they reflect what we're doing or that we

promote what they're doing princeton professor and activist dr cornel west who has been a huge supporter of the occupation movement was down here in zuccotti park r.t. had a chance to catch up with him to get his thoughts on what mayor bloomberg has recently said i just think is wrong with your idea to try to come up with a rationalization without a convincing reason do you think there's anything criminal about you know dangerous about this encampment that i think every section of new york city has a day and then. what it is they have a human community and every human community has some still supporting oh my god yes one hundred twenty percent overall though all the activists that we have spoken with today say they feel as safe today as they have felt since day one of these occupy wall street movement they say the momentum is growing bigger it's growing louder it's growing larger and they are here to stay reporting from wall street marina puerto nile r.t. . for another of our correspondents who is also covering the occupy protests had to

ati's to the streets she digs out the scene as police waited to break up the latest protest in washington to get a twitter feed for full coverage of the instant including photos and video she's posted to. one of the demands driving the occupy movements and increased attacks on the rich that could help bolster the beleaguered u.s. budget a little later this hour that we find out what some new. yorkers think about that. as people get wealthier a higher percentage of the think they have it up until they pass a certain point whereas as you get even wealthier you want even more and this takes the streets the big apple to gauge public opinion we've got a couple of. tens of thousands of people are teaming up with the growing occupy movement to take a shot at america's big banks this saturday it's officially envied by transfer day in the united states and the aim is to prove deprive a leading bank because of their customers i spoke to event organizer coast in

christie and she said it's all for the benefit of the people and their communities the goal is not you hurt anyone and that goal is to shift funds the local level so far credit unions have seen an additional six hundred fifty thousand new members we are seeing positive improvements on the local level and american economic experts to save that the security fence that we use for credit unions are actually a lot more state and banks and that is because of the difference in how profits if used so credit unions hire actually according to experts more state than any of the bakers to step recently have a right to make a profit my response that is exactly why it's sort of a transfer day that they have rights make a profit and i have a right to decide if i'm going to give them my money or not i definitely don't think the transfer day is a shift to socialism in the political sense i think this is a consumer community reawakening. israel's began to pour two pro palestinian

activists from the blocked for to try to carry medical supplies to go to boats and canadian current twenty seven foreign nationals from turkey on wednesday they were boarded by israeli navy guards and towed away similar protest vessels have been intercepted in the past at the very last year did the killing of knowing turkish nationals on board of the course of the national outcry israel since ease the blockade productive is to word a rough told we promised to be people more than. the problem that we have here is a humanitarian crisis but it is one that has been created by deliberate israeli policies so we need to change that policy so that palestinians are allowed to lead a normal life i didn't have five life and i have to live on handouts now the situation in gaza is one point five million people who live in an open air prison and as a result of deliberate israeli policy have been reduced to needing handouts eighty percent of the population now of gaza is food aid dependent and that's

a problem but it is a political problem and therefore these flotillas are going to challenge that policy of this inhumane blockade going to the united nations as a way of the palestinian leadership saying that we need the right of the palestinian people respected and we think that through this mechanism we will have more avenues by which to hold israel responsible for continued violation of our rights and that is something that should be supported by all because in the end all of these different countries are part of a united system the united nations that is supposed to maintain world peace and defend people's human rights but it seems that no action is taken in violation of palestinian human rights occurs and palestinians are looking for avenues by which to hold israel accountable. the u.n. nuclear watchdog will next week publish a report suggesting a rans build a nuclear testing facility and will show satellite images to prove it but iran's dismissed the alleged u.n. claims calling them fabricated now these allegations come amid reports of possible

military action against the country's nuclear facilities on friday the israeli president said when it comes to iran quote that the international community is closer to finding a military solution than a diplomatic one patrick henderson editor of the in for was website says the west has wanted to take action against iran for years but an attack would inflame the whole middle east region. well the report that's due to come out next week by the international atomic energy agency is basically saying that iran is reached a stage in its research where this is the precursor to an a bomb to an tomic bomb and what they've done is they've done research into do to ride nucular physics and also neutron physics ok and this is meant to be some sort of implicating crime that is going to allow the west to play sanctions on iran or to have weapons inspectors go in extra but this is research is being done all over the world in a lot of different countries university so if iran is guilty of doing this level of

research then they'll have to put sanctions on about one hundred countries there's an issue of timing coming up the west wants to strike iran but it wants to do it at a time of its choosing and all they're doing is just revising this whole new killer threat issue that the leak that came out of allegedly came out of me the shin bet or mossad that there were already operational plans to have a preemptive strike against iran from israel that was leaked out benjamin netanyahu when it was absolutely flabbergasted and the hard line look at hardline we were really upset about this leak but thank god and i tip my hat to these people in israel who did leak this information because it's absolute madness if you look at the geopolitical situation right now in the region an attack on iran is going to basically put gasoline on a fire that is already reached incredible temperatures so it's it's not something we can afford. here in russia massive election campaigns are full swing with seven parties competing for seats in the duma that's the country's lower house of parliament gathers have until december the third to wove otos with on air debates

and enticing adverts on t.v. and in print media is a cutting approach of a report on the right. for the next thirty days all t.v. sets in russia will be talking politics politics and politics in other words but on the labor of the rule of the people and socialism at the white freedom solidarity and justice our free sanctuary is some of the most storied going on his party which stands for the poor and for russians. so is on our banners future is with us on banners agitating for the top political parties and head of the december vote have been out for a while but the most cherished cake free t.v. and radio air has just been sliced seven parties are in the running for the duma seats and while the country's main political force the united russia party is only concerned by how big

a majority they'll be getting this time many are there is that desperate to just make it into the parliament and the race is on a staunch communists are appealing to sauvie. all of communists haven't lied a single time in one hundred years we saved the country from fascism in world war two we twice save the country from collapsing we were the first in space with. liberal democrats are yet again appealing to nationalism but. the russian president should be the sole ruler in the caucuses we have to eliminate the clan culture in this region and introduce curfews in some areas video surveillance is a must. yes while just russia comes up with a robin hood plan to help the poor with the money of the reach for reform number one. is fighting poverty in introducing tax and luxury business and country should brief really. there had been and not

a runner in this race lobbying for both small and big businesses billionaire me how prokhorov hopes were high he would create a powerful lobby for western minded liberals in parliament probably of himself was even considering running for president for the complaint failed. it field because of cross personality he thought that to run a party is the same as to run a business this is a strategic mistake he considered other party members who'd been with the right cause much longer than him not his teammates but as his subordinates and they responded by asking him the right cause will take part in the vote but it's listed among outsiders one month ahead of the elections polls suggest united russia will gain at least forty three percent of the votes coming second hour communists with fourteen percent the liberal democrats will secure at least nine percent for the other four parties it will be largely about how they perform in t.v. debates and to secure at least one seat in the duma they will have to overcome

a five percent threshold we trim it very for has the united russia party his list has even put his political future on the table saying his possible post as the country's prime minister could depend on how well the party performs at the election booths prime minister putin is also backing united russia and has even become somewhat of a trademark of the party over the years they've chosen december's douma elections will each receive as sparking new t.v. set a welcome gift from the government the specifics of the order are exacting the sets will be made from white porcelain each with a gold trim each cup must hold a certain amount of tea interesting here though not all sets are of the same size two hundred four are key and coffee sets for twelve persons while the remaining. four hundred fifty are just scaled down six person sets and while it's not clear which devotees will win which set some g.o.p.

discrepancy means the united russia party has spawned create plans for a tea party of its own following the december a vote by winning at least two hundred four duma seats it seems that are more still. elsewhere around the world tonight starting in nigeria a series of bomb and gun attacks there is left of the sixty seven killed more than one hundred injured the assault of the time of the damage to the bus to more than an hour hitting several targets including a local police precinct and several churches the radical muslim. claimed responsibility for the attack and promised more strikes in the future on friday the same group also attacked a military headquarters in neighboring borno state with a triple suicide bombing in colombia bird proofs of killed a top five rebel commander delivering another severe blow to latin america's longest running guerrilla insurgency alfonso cano died during a military air and ground assault a war of nearly four million dollars was offered for information leading to his

almost twenty five years the group has attempted to overthrow the government using violence and intimidation to turn india into a communist society in their eyes the government is not taking any interest in the indigenous people of rural india the government has called the maoists the single biggest security threat to india and it's held them responsible for displacing and killing thousands of civilians but far from the jungles of india a new maoist revolution is brewing like the movement in the rural areas this one is also anti-establishment but is largely focused on overthrowing multinational companies and development the maoist argue that the arrival of multinational companies here is actually caused a further divide between rich and poor they want to stay in india without the presence of quote unquote dominating western companies where everyone has access to basic right meat var of our route the brains behind the uprising the highly

consider too much money this week let's talk about that more than a million too much money yeah if someone has more than a million should they pay more in taxes yes they absolutely said yes but i want too much money so i'm not going to answer. those ten million in two months to emerge for to merge one when the limit when millions enough to have i would say if people make more than a million dollars and they have that in their bank account should they be forced to give back a more of their amoral and out in general interestingly i saw once that the to answer the question do you have enough money to curve goes like this as your wealth increases so people who don't have a lot feel that they don't have enough as they as people get wealthier a higher percentage of the think they have enough until they pass a certain point whereas as you get even wealthier you want even more so if you made ten million dollars i would give some of it away it's too much money are people

that don't give it away and have that much in the wrong i guess it's a personal decision i just think that if you make that much money you could share it with someone that doesn't have so much should they be forced to through taxes like they do in scandinavia maybe so because sometimes if you don't force someone to do something and are going to do it no matter how much wealth you consider to be obscene the bottom line is when it comes to money it's hard for anyone to not want just a little bit more a. few minutes of the program because the tories who are expensive hotels for the lights to explore some of the more affordable options which is years well the sport for creating all the latest on the fed cup of moscow but so the next half hour looks that. what auditing.
