hello and welcome to our weekly review i mean our timing a story now we're starting in greece with talks between the countries in bottles prime minister and they head of the main opposition party have ended with an agreement to form a national unity government george papandreou is to step down under the deal on which talks will continue on monday a new government is to be sworn in and go through a confidence vote in parliament within a week journalist to really make a deal or has more from athens. three there are three main points i am beside now and when the first of all we have the former they have agreed to form a new coalition government second up on trail will not to be the prime minister will not be a biliteral in this coalition government and third they have to again in order to arrange the details but the most postable person to have to be the leader in this a new government will be told mr look ask but they must he is sixty four years old he is x.

vice president in the european central bank is not a politician he is a technocrat but according to the plan is about the most to be the prime minister and our other politicians about their congrats to be our own team but probably the most is a personality well respected in the whole eurozone in the whole european union and he's the person who knows very well how to react in this difficult situation upon joe will steve be the leader of his part the apostle party even though he will be he will not be the leader of the new coalition government but the thing is that at first he decides is the cold if you decide to call or a friend and then he changes his opinion in a way he tried he perswaded and gone somewhere as a leader for conservatives to agree with the astaire of the miseries with the agreement of twenty sixth of october about this all this us situation created

confusion tunnel is tearing resolve to of the announcement say that more austerity measures are expected because nobody will give us money because the government is going to change this means that greece the greek us citizens are going to suffer more now seem to be desperate they want to go on the election because they think that apart from. this coalition government on february or even march we're going to have an election for a new government but of course we have to pay for the debts and as good as long as the government has decided as agreed with that troika they have to do to follow and to put into practice the measures they have decided the greek debt crisis also dominated discussions at this week's g. twenty meeting in cannes it descended into turmoil when the greek prime minister made his announcement of a referendum on the e.u. bailout plan only to drop it shortly afterwards and he said now it followed the

summit. the everchanging greek drama took center stage in camphor the g twenty leaders hero host nicolas sarkozy protecting what he calls the beating heart of europe until the end because some positions a resolution which is very strong. agree on this and we will fight to defend europe and the euro. france and germany took action with this message to greece play by the rules or get out the greek prime minister made a cameo appearance in can return to athens and cancelled an improv referendum that would have more last allowed the public to decide if they stay or if they go when it comes to the euro perish the thought that they should be allowed to decide whether they want these things leaders say it is to agree to will surely be greece is an independent country and i just want to say they are perfectly free and i don't want to give any idea that we are trying to get in the greek domestic

politics. but france has given some exactly that idea it is no longer an independent country and has been for a while and the conversation is always on what we need to do to satisfy our creditors demands and our creditors are the people who are going to determine whether we survive or don't survive and the so-called backbone of the eurozone could be trying to save its backside with a statement from sarkozy that those who break deficit rules should be punished some with sanctions even if he is breaking the same rules back home in france they're running a budget deficit of beyond what what the rules of mass rich provide for the real irony with that is that the the french banks are are so desperate for some sort of a bailout and if they didn't get one for greece for example they could potentially go under and could be playing a major role in the fight to save the euro which some hope for the single currency aligns with the emerging economies or the brics who have already pledged to try and

help the euro stay afloat but with a condition president medvedev says they want to play a bigger role in financial institutions like the i am math and the group of twenty format already it seems some headway there as for the first time ever the g twenty summit will be held in a brics country and it takes place in moscow russia in two thousand and thirteen reporting from. and he's an hour or two. years from the set tending of the hate on the on to corporate occupy movement which has spread across the country since and began nearly two months ago there was flare up of violence happens this week in kind of fornia offices to cast a crowd of peaceful protesters in the city of oakland several to my strangers were seriously injured and one hundred arrests were made us on the veteran who was a bystander was seriously injured by police is the second time before crime down and arriving in the city in the past two weeks. in the midst of it all. we're

still reporting from the so vocal and as you can hear behind me loud explosions possibly tear gas from the police officers there are at least a hundred of the not two hundred three hundred police officers in full riot gear several i'm as you can see advancing behind us right now on the occupy oakland movement now we don't know how many officers are back there we saw a massive group of them sort of a walk down that street before that was the street of the standoff where several protesters had barricaded the street from the police several several pieces of furniture and whatnot were lit on fire but again not enough of an action to provoke this kind of a militant response by the police force here we have to remember that earlier thousands marched peacefully on the port of oakland shutting it down no arrests reported whatsoever in fact we didn't even see any of the police officers out there and yet after the peaceful march again this was a scene unfolding on the streets of oakland no other media outlets no other television outlets here on the frontlines we have been standing here we have seen

tear gas fired several protesters injured from the tear gas in fact you can smell it in the air right now i wish i could describe it better but a very intimidating show of force when you have this line of police slowly marching forward with protesters in front of them the mood is an extremely tense we don't know how this will develop but people are sort of running out from the side streets that perhaps there's more confrontations down that way. whether or not they're going to clear the camp remains to be seen but as you can see these was there are marching behind those sticks and hands baton hand i don't know if you can get any closer on that shot but they're certainly coming here the crowd as you can hear is chanting oakland perhaps you can see over there several police officers with their weapons out shooting their tear gas for these loud sort of don't know when it's the gun actually hurt anyone but definitely they're scared that the protesters and journalists on site but police are moving in to break up ok by demonstrations

across america several arrests and made with force in atlanta and washington will have a hundred police action was caught on camera bayati in new york where the movement began in mid september the protesters camping out in zuccotti park at the time and to stand their ground they say authorities are preparing to attempt an eviction actually it's helping the occupy movement alone say it's already won by raising awareness across america. for the first time in decades people are thinking about the degree to which corporations have power in this country and their greed which that is the way in which corporations that have power have been taking power away from regular american citizens it's been a phenomenal success because over the last few weeks we've been talking about the degree to which you know income inequality is a problem in this country rather than absurd talk about how we're going to be cutting social security and cutting medicare benefits in order to to fix the deficit problem we've this movement has been successful because it's changed the conversation and today it's successful because people are going to sites like being

seduced out or moving their money. to keep your finger on the pulse of the occupy movement as it continues its route that spread across america just had to alter his twitter stream to her fund and that lisa catherine of us in washington d.c. on true pulls on protesters marching through the city so long to her twitter feed for the latest updates from this. in seaway new kwan downs until regime activities have left over twenty people died as tanks rolled into the city of holmes it brings to one hundred the number of civilians reported dead in clashes with government troops since just tuesday the

latest bloodshed comes despite damascus 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 the plan will have disastrous consequences for the whole region more than five hundred political political detainees were released on saturday but the ban is still continues the u.n. estimates that over three thousand civilians have been killed by syrian security forces in the last eight months political analyst. claims the country's been such operation by western powers. i think it's a conspiracy by the regional power they wanted to change the regime of bashar assad they wanted a different regime different government was different and that's why you can see the regional power hasn't been friendly to the situation taking place inside syria actually some of this country has been funneling weapons and money and certain

ideology to topple the regime of president assad the president of syria acknowledges there is opposition in the country and he extend his hand to what it conciliation within the his country for those people who are asking for change and that's why today they have a constitutional reform but there is an external power or what they say opposition and exile those are backed by the western powers some persian gulf countries coming up in the program history day for the palestinian. general conference as does voted to adopt the draft resolution and decided to add me to palestine as member of the united. but that's brought complications for the heritage body and the palestinian bid for full statehood at the u.n. . russian businessman big to do it is facing a life sentence in the u.s.

being joined by the minister of defense here in london for the time was really worrying that if iran is not developing a nuclear missile it will be developing and you could be so free so the idea that the americans the british news really are looking towards an unprovoked attack on iran and the world. much more dangerous place and i cannot imagine why these three people in the west seem to underestimate the strength of a reunion nationalism that is a strong national sense. of what happened under foreign intervention into the country and. installed and maintained by britain and america. memories of the way it's presented the west if the shah was a liberal regime there will be a bloody war if there is an attack on iran iran is not iraq as of two thousand and one there will be retaliation from our mass and the world is a more dangerous place because of these reports. palestine has won membership of

unesco this week but the move may cause the u.n. heritage body a fifth of its funding with the u.s. cutting off its cash contribution in response it's seen as a major coup for public stein as it gets out for the u.n. vote on recognizing its statehood later this month america and israel are strongly opposed to the bit with washington vowing to use its veto powers how a political analyst i haven't even said that he'd ask a membership is a positive sign for palestine's future. is symbolic idea that all these nations wanted to let palestine in over the objections of the u.s. and israel is very significant i think and it. tells to means have been stymied in their efforts to have a stay and of course they're trying a new route they're trying. he's full protest and they're trying this method of trying to get into more and more international organizations to build their legitimacy and i think that's a better way to go than violence the difference between this vote in the one. or

statehood bid is that of course the u.s. can be toe in the security council that the latter one where is this vote there's no veto and it was voted overwhelmingly that people went against what the u.s. and israel wanted and voted in the palestine as a member only of this week we can they found it today in a sound loss his appeal battle against extradition from the u.k. to sweden he will now have a chance a sex crime and a geisha is. i have not been for with any crime in any country. assigned maintains his innocence and is planning to appeal again and he says that his case is political out of a tip that whistle blowing web site was forced to suspend its operations to raise funds after a financial blockade many analysts say there is a lot of interest in discrediting asuncion after he's a website publication of sleep with us while. this is just the latest in

a saga isn't it a kind of scandal maybe an viking saga of the barbarity of which it is being treated appallingly has been an eighteen month disruption campaign now against what is actually one of the most important websites in the world what what wiki leaks does is it was one of most powerful tools to address corruption corruption at the highest levels and what we've seen over the last few years with these expeditions in other parts of the world afghanistan or iraq or the latest one libya is the importance of whistle blows being able to actually expose criminal behavior as solid as being the most powerful person in a way in the world exposing some of these crimes what is certainly very similar isn't it to the dominic strauss column sexting it seems the really any real basis for this as we heard there's not even been charges over in sweden and so yes it's a spear yes attempt to shut down what is one of the most important media outlets in

a half after their virtual voyage. back on earth i. well actually they never left but pale faced bleary eyed these six men are returning from a five hundred twenty day epic mockup of a mission to mars and back there thankful to be back and on their fellow earth to others it is really really great to see you all again rob their whole they're all going to be an honor to having been part of this remarkable achievement we have five of them are professional fraley area syrian individuals i have ever worked with it's clear that crew cohesion was key to sticking it out this door stayed sealed shut all throughout the seventeen months of the experiment of course it was only a simulation of a trip to mars any of these six men could have left at any time but none of them did the scientists behind it wanted to see the six member crew be able to go all

the time without severe psychological effects from the busy control room i was able to ask them how they got on before they left how are your relationships with the other crew members changed. at the beginning i was hoping not hoping i was here maybe waiting for something like that to happen you know like a fight or something close quarter for such a long time it would be you know it must not most thing in the world. but never happen we have been a very. very quiet sixty from the beginning. of the experiment was kept as real as possible with a twenty minute time delay in communications will miss the ship was on its way meant the team was alone they could talk freely with loved ones research has decided to withhold news from the outside world but that was tricky meaning with those we had to keep in mind that some information could come in with private

correspondence and some relatives could break the news in this case any prolonged silence on our part could lead to tensions and misunderstanding they could think that we withheld the information deliberately that's what must the highlight of the cruise trip was a simulated landing on mars with a long isolation and boredom before it scientists observed with amazement just how little it became for them when they made martian landfall post with nationalists but i think both their pulse rate was one hundred sixty beats per minute now compared with the pulse of the first concert or not a year ago in one orbit it was a hundred and fifty two beats per minute the outside world to has been intrigued by movies five hundred mostly through betting on how and when the experiment would fail. making put eight to one on one of the crew members going insane because if it were having to. be that somebody.
