live from moscow with you twenty four hours a day for as the greek prime minister george papandreou is holding talks to form a new government of national unity after surviving a crucial confidence vote in parliament he wants a new coalition to implement the deal with the eurozone and i.m.f. to slash the country's foreign debts in return for massive reforms and austerity cuts but his plans have been rebuffed by the opposition leader who won't stop in dread to stand down as all the details from france where. there's a lot of confusion about what that coalition government is going to look like we saw the passenger and his government stood by that call to this nation in parliaments in the early hours of the morning it was very very close it was always going to be it was a week of john mattick decisions but no changes really everyone still waiting to see what the details of this will be and as we said before the devil really is in the details and so a lot of uncertainty still remains about was going to happen now moving forward to help guide us a bit see this political quagmire i'm joined by. professor of economics at
6:02 pm
this 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 it's such a critical point the big picture is not what happened in greece it's what happened yes the g twenty when they couldn't agree on anything so not agreeing on anything means that all stereotypic which is will continue as the only policy coming out of the euro zone the pressure. of the central issue center right because of the stereotype measures is that the leader of the right wing party wants quick aleck should lose so he could do well and not been p.k. to do any of your stereotypical just we've had so far as a cup 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
6:03 pm
package is shared but if you were me sara there is one missing out truth in this and that is the people of greece who have been demonstrating for the last six months from the street and really icing 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 tainted and political leaders actually addressing the social needs of the mass of people in this country and indeed of european people 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 seeing 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 percent decisive action and that's not what with thing it's all in of course moving forward the situation looking on increasingly unstable ground. the

police crackdown on and to call for demonstrations continues in the u.s. says officers disperse a demonstration this time in washington d.c. and remove protesters tenants three x. rays were knocked down by a car but the driver wasn't charged and the kind of formula city of oakland police unleashed tear gas flash grenades and bottles on protesters and made one hundred arrests several people were seriously injured including a u.s. on the veteran as the second major violent clash involving police and protesters in the city in a foolish night meanwhile a new york the occupy movement where the movement began protesters camped out in zuccotti park are bracing themselves for a showdown in a person i want to find out all the authorities in the big apple have in store for them. 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 demonstrators under the pretext of crime new york city mayor michael bloomberg is
6:05 pm
now accusing these optimise a million danger in the entire community saying they are failing to report mines that are taking place here the optimist 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 learned that it is actually new york city police officers some at least that have included criminals and almost people to calm down to do qadi part in an effort to stir up some trouble the n.y.p.d. 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 that i say here i don't feel safe here well i think that you know the mayor is going to be right that our having been recorded what are
6:06 pm
those crimes do you think that they are probably gearing up to make another attempt to. to remove 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 they've been 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 we can see anyone coming here and that's fine you know we want to welcome people in but certainly because someone destructive doesn't mean they reflect what we're doing or that we promote what they're doing princeton professor and optimus stopper cornell 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. they did try to come up with a rationalization with another convincing reason do you think there's anything criminal about you know dangerous about this encampment that i think section of new york city has a day then. what it is they have a human community and we have a human community here still supporting oh my god yes one hundred twenty was it
6:07 pm
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 portnoy r.t. . and correspondent lisa catherine of us also covering the occupy protests just had to twitter stream for more so lazio was at the scene. as police of waiting to break out the latest precious and washington d.c. so normal into her twitter feed full full coverage of the incident including photos and videos. and one of the demands driving the occupy movement is an increased tax on the rich that could help bolster the u.s. budget this later this hour find out what some new yorkers think about. as people get wealthier
6:08 pm
a higher percentage of the think they haven't up until it's certain point worst as you get. even wealthier you want even more. so knowing often it takes histories of the big apple to gauge public opinion says state without taking no interest in that . joining hands with the growing occupy movement turns a thousands of people have to take a shot in america's big banks this saturday it's officially bank transfer day which i am still deprived losing because of their customers and freelance writer conveys things they buying have only themselves to pay. over eighty one thousand people have pledged their support to go to their banks and move their money to a credit union a smaller bank in september bank of america announced a five dollars fee on debit cards people were outraged this is when people started moving their money credit unions have reported some six hundred fifty thousand new members since september that's four point five billion dollars in new deposits
6:09 pm
people are so outraged with the big banks that they're committing no matter what to move their money you know a lot of us are underwater our homes are worth much less than they were when we bought them our whole entire economy has been built on credit so the idea of just walking away from your debt is something that really captures your imagination so if your kind of on the receiving end of harassing phone calls people threatening to steal your car from your driveway and you can't drive your son to work you know that there are ways there are ways to fight back. meanwhile in london dozens of protests inspired by the u.s. and corporations demonstrations were arrested as they marched through the city of the worst mass. the occupy the london stock exchange protest it's own the move this saturday they have left that tented camps outside. and they've decided to march on westminster joining me around about two hundred people who are permanent become
6:10 pm
tout there at the moment around about another five hundred more bringing the total to just take a seven hundred people we think they are marching to be put to has to be said these people have a huge amount of energy that mostly young people for the both majority and they are saying that they are the ninety nine percent opposed to the one percent of people who own all the wealth and property in the country they are saying that they should be in charge that the bankers and the politicians that made such a mess of this country they want to take charge and it certainly seems as if they have the energy to do you say they've been joined by politicians and also by people who have come specially from the ok to build street demonstration to take part in the london protests let's hear what just a couple of them had to say the issues that are being raised by the people demonstrating here today are issues that millions of people around the country care about issues like tax injustice the fact that the poorest and most vulnerable are being forced to pay the highest price for
6:11 pm
a crisis the bankers crisis that they had nothing to do with most of us are getting ripped off by the powers that be by corporate america or corporate whatever it is depending on which country we're in and very often it's corporate america even if we're not in the united states we're mobilizing though for a big strike on november thirtieth so i'm really hopeful that this movement is going to expand and eventually going to bring down the government if people are saying that the bankers and the politicians have to go and they've been granted a stay of execution for that tend to count out sites and pools cathedral they will be allowed to stay until after christmas so we can expect many more of this type of demonstration. israel has begun to pushing pro palestinian accidents from two of humanitarian boats are counted and on land that were blocked by the israeli navy on route to gaza with eight they flew to or with dozens of foreign nationals from nine different countries on board that set sail from turkey and one state carrying medical supplies they were boarded by israeli naval forces and towed away similar protest vessels have been stormed in the past with shocks of its shot dead by
6:12 pm
israeli marines last year causing an international outcry and while israel has since made some concessions on the blockade x. rays to arrive says the people of gaza to live in an open air prison. 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 a dignified life and not have to live on handouts now the situation in gaza is one point five million people 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 of gaza is food aid dependent and that's a problem but it's 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 rights of the
6:13 pm
palestinian people respected and we've been through this mechanism we will have more avenues by which to hold israel responsible for continued violation of rights and that is something that should be supported by all because in the end all of these different countries are part of the united system the united nations that is supposed to maintain world peace and defend people suman 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 un's atomic watchdog plans to reveal evidence next week suggesting iran made computer models of a nuclear warhead that's according to the associated press report by the international atomic energy agency but also support immigrations that tehran has built a nuclear testing facility and will show satellite images to prove on friday the israeli president shimon peres said that as not much time left to stop iran from obtaining nuclear weapons he was saying clients that military action is now closer
6:14 pm
to reality than attempts at a diplomatic solution patrick having sent to tell the info wars web site says the west is just looking for an excuse to take action against iran but that time would inflame the whole middle east region. well the report is 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 a neighbor to an tommy bomb and what they've done is they've done research into due 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 and search 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
6:15 pm
a time of its choosing and all they're doing is just reviving this whole new killer threat if you leak that came out of allegedly came out of the 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 was absolutely flabbergasted in the hardline 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. thanks to some other news from around the world a series of bomb and gun the times has left more than sixty people killed and over one hundred injured in nigeria the radical muslim sect boko haram has said it was responsible for the hour long attack on several targets and has promised more in the future its assault on down a truce struck several targets including
6:16 pm
a police building and several churches on friday the same group also attacked a military headquarters in neighboring borno state where that triple suicide bombing. over a dozen of people feel to have been killed in syria by time shelling in the city of homs it brings to one hundred the number of civilians reported dead in clashes with government troops since just tuesday electric comes despite c. were agreeing to sign up to an arab league plan to end violence in the country the international body has already warned that failure to implement a greenman will have disastrous consequences for the whole region. seven people have been confirmed dead and fifty one injured in a huge crash involving thirty four vehicles on the m five motorway in southwestern england the authorities expect the death toll to rise as they fear they may find more bodies in the wreckage because of the crash was not clear yet but police say there were four good conditions on the road surface was wet rescuers described the

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. the 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 of the video surveillance is a must. just yet while just russia comes up with a robin hood plan to help the poor with the money of the reach for the moment
6:19 pm
reform number one is fighting poverty and introducing tax on luxury business and country should brief really all that but the whole the log there had been another runner in this race lobbying for both small and big businesses millionaire me hope rocker of hopes were high he would create a powerful. lobby for western minded liberals in parliament probably of himself was even considering running for president or for the complaint. or it feels because of crossroads personality he thought that to run a party is a seems to run a business this is a strategic mistake he considered the other party members had been with the right cause much longer than he noticed teammates as his subordinates and they responded to him with the right clothes will take part in the vote but it's listed among outsiders one month ahead of the actions polls suggest to you not to russia will gain at least forty three percent of the votes coming second down or communists
6:20 pm
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 to mention it very far has the united russia party his list has even put his political future on the table saying he's toast and 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 elections will each receive a sparking new t.v. set a welcome gift from the government the specifics of the order are exacting the subtle be made from white porcelain each with a gold stream each cup must hold a certain amount of t. interesting new though not all sets are of the same size two hundred for our tea
6:21 pm
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 joker discrepancy means they're not a russia party has horn create plans for a tea party of its own following the december vote by winning at least two hundred four duma seats exceeding the virtue of r r t. a massive rescue operation is underway for fifteen construction workers kidnapped by most rebels in india is the latest the target by insurgents who want to establish communism in the country they said are fighting for the rural poor have been left out of india's big city economic boom. has the story for us. these are the images people recognize when they think of india as maoist rebels for almost twenty five years the group has attempted to overthrow the government violence and intimidation to turn india into a communist society in their eyes the government is not taking any interest in the
6:22 pm
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 that actually caused a further divide between rich and poor are they want to stay in india without the presence of quote unquote dominating western companies or everyone has access to basic right meat varvara the brains behind the uprising the highly educated man is in most senses the opposite of his counterparts in the jungle armed with a pen and paper and sitting in his relatively modern flat in hyderabad rao is seen
6:23 pm
as the intellectual leader of the maoists and a voice for a growing group of indians against globalization if the investment is from the. listed age and. with them in hyderabad as a symbol for many indians of the countries booming economy and presence on the global stage the city has the biggest microsoft research and development office outside the united states and for many in the city the presence of foreign firms is welcome yeah providing us the opportunity and we had a good year a lot of better india to get into is being used by them and seen by. b.m.r. do you know did you all be. boarding different obligations for needs like a small market seems to be mediums while most indians aren't convinced that communism is the answer many agree that india needs to find
6:24 pm
a way to improve on its own ideas think that india has such rich who do these sorts of minerals. learn. whom on science and technology there's probably a human resources that we can produce and while they watch the uprisings around the arab world they believe it's the sub continents turn to demand change preassure either r.t. hyderabad india now as the occupy protest movement cribbs the u.s. for a second month opinions are divided over some of its sayings one of them is a tax hike for rich americans who demonstrators blame for they can only downturn and you know we haven't it's also known as the president has been on the streets of new york to see if the people agree. the general public has been vilifying the very rich lately so what does the public consider too much money this week let's talk about that more than
6:25 pm
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 too much too much for too much when one of the women when millions enough to have i would say if people make more than a million dollars and they have better in their bank account should they be forced to give back a moral or a moral and outs and 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 it passes certain point words 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
6:26 pm
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. here for say and i'll be back with a recap our top stories in just a few minutes stay with us.
