and fails to stop and look me up to shut down wall street. a war in the cosmic welcome the international space station crew joined by three new members of the soyuz rocket safely delivers them to orbit due to stay aboard the i assess performance. of next we hear from inside europe's financial elite as a belgian durkee on epping tells us what went wrong with the euro zone and why the debt crisis can't be resolved until the e.u. addresses its leadership problems. europeans will still miss building the european parliament in a repeat of the french revolution according to a member of the european parliament is tripping why are people so fed up with the e.u. well i've been become a bit less optimistic because since i wrote the book many things happened and particularly we're facing now a euro crisis a crisis in the eurozone and nobody actually knows what to do we go from one summit

to the other every time we think we found a solution just to find out a few weeks later that the problem is still there and even in a bigger size so i think that. we are facing some fundamental questions in the european union and this idea of ever closer union and ever bigger budgets and ever more institutions it's basically the wrong way we have to take tough positions greece may no gets a second bailout how do you think this year across this will end well this is the big question everybody is wondering actually nobody knows the european parliament doesn't know the commission doesn't know the heads of government don't know everybody hopes for the best but there is no guarantee for success if this crisis is lingering or it's going to infect the entire eurozone and not only italy and spain but also for us so we have been

facing a problem that is growing all the time whereas we thought we could manage is by putting greece inside so greece is the worst of the problems but not the only problem there are more problems to it and sometimes wondering whether either it will be solved by greece leaving the eurozone need agrees or not leaving the eurozone it will become worse and worse and worse two states will point at which for example germany netherlands finland or she will say ok we're going to leave that uses and you get a call. breakup of the user of course this is something that may not happen tomorrow but it may be one of the scenarios we have to keep in mind how is this course is affecting people in the street the currency looks to be still quite strong but that is because the dollar is very weak basically the currencies of the

major powers in the world japan the united states and the euro are quite weak but of course what is the effect of this eurozone crisis is that there is little growth actually our economies are not growing in the north they are growing in the south they're not growing and the main problem of the euro crisis is not so much the euro itself it is rather a gap of competitiveness between the north and the south the north is still growing the south is in a crisis in a stagnation in recession and as long as they are in the euro zone it's very hard for them to grow there's no economic growth it is also because of the fact that investors have no confidence in any growth in the in the eurozone. because for the south of europe the in the euro is too expensive it pushes them into a recession even greece and it depression italy in a recession and spain in a recession and portugal in a recession that has forty percent of the eurozone in trouble and the question of

course is whether the currency will survive that could be used it isn't actually too if they told to green with a policy you see the european elites to which i myself also belong always thought we don't we are doing the right thing for the european public we are doing good things nice things and people have to be grateful to us for what we are doing we are creating more institutions big buildings more competences more agencies and people are happy about it well actually what we see now the first time is that lots of people are angry with the e.u. and it's not only farmers it's the men industry. eight the germans get angry because they do not support bill out of other countries and people in italy and spain and portugal in greece are angry because they say europe is the problem. and germany is the problem problem germany should pay faster and more so the public the public opinion in both the south in the north i go in different directions in

finland we've seen the rise of the party the true feelings in holland we've seen the rise of the party of mr will bitch in germany lot of discontent about what's going on now and the same you see in the south but for different reasons so there are so many different forces going on that you really have to ask the question whether you're on the survival of this do you leaders on the stand people's problems they still think that the fewer things they say about it the better it is every time they have a summit in and they will proclaim that they found a solution a solution only last one or two weeks and then another crisis we have another summit i would now go in leaping from summit to summit the man in the street is worried the man in the street doesn't know where this is going to end and they're worried because of their savings because of their pensions. and because of the jobs

and so on the man in the street has the real question which is that european leaders the elite is not in charge and doesn't know where to go and there is not an easy solution to it but. the european leaders always thought it we're doing the right thing for the citizens and they have to be grateful and what we do should not be challenged and now it is challenged in the streets of greece in italy and at the ballot box in germany and in finland and this is a message i think the european union still has to understand do you think the european union will survive this crisis i think some countries are very competitive i think anyone even can. fees have shown to be competitive germany is competitive and they're losing at parity with the problem of the european union is that the economies in southern europe are not competitive and they're slipping back and we have this crisis in greece which is basically now depression and with courts recession or it at least take nation and italy spain and portugal i think ireland

will get out of the problem because it is restoring its competitiveness ireland is really improving but still will have forty percent of the eurozone in trouble and what these countries have to do is to improve and increase their competitiveness and says nick they cannot devalue within the euro zone they have to bring about a sort of a domestic develop ration by reducing salaries by cutting the public sector of making their labor modest more flexible and this is very hard to do because people immediately feel the pain and they start protesting against it's not only against those measures against the entire project of the european union some people are saying that european union is like the soviet union. while they both try to be a sort of a union and what the soviet union showed is that if you want to harmonize everything too much in an unnatural way that it will collapse so what we have to be careful

about is that we cannot try to harmonize everything that is under the sun and legislate on everything that is under the sun peoples in europe the peoples in europe there are all bit different a different cultures different languages and we have to keep that into account and we can be successful in european integration if you just know where the limits are but now we're acting as if there are no limits and that integration can go on. without any without any sort of a mechanism of correction so i think that it's very important to know where these limits are. to focus our budget on about five or six point to be efficient there and then europe can grow again how these internal divisions affecting the e.u.'s foreign policy it is very simple if britain france and germany agree we have a common european foreign policy if they do not agree we don't have one or you'll have one or two countries acting on the row in this case germany didn't want to

support military action against the regime of calling all the duffy. and they even didn't support the resolution the united nations in the security council which was very disappointing i thought so the only alternative was for the british and the french to go ahead with their efforts while you can union doesn't have that force so as the friends of the bridge that will have to take the lead and since the americans were leading from behind as it is called these days we actually had to do it it took much longer of course then in visit. and i hope the regime is now gone forever because gadhafi has been a shame for all of us i have seen all these european leaders kissing and hugging gaddafi bending him thinking that he would be. a modern ruler and advising his son and how to write a thesis in the london school of economics these things were a completely wrong in one thing missing at our feet was

a dictator and he hasn't been a dictator all along everybody has seen the downing of the airplane in lockerbie in one thousand eight hundred eight so what are the proving you need we knew it and still to go there to start kissing etc and just just a few months later they have to bump it so i think it is a real has been a reality check for european leaders who are trying to help in case african dictators to be more careful has immigration policy to the e.u. been a success one of the aims of libya mr gadhafi was to make a sort of a gate for integration to europe through ritually and putting pressure on the european union and getting billions of. of euro in return but of course here again our immigration policy is not yet really a common immigration policy there are lots of problems there's a flow of people from africa from northern africa in particular and we've not been able to deal with that yet we have proclaimed a common immigration policy ten years ago and still it doesn't work so lots of

people getting lots of people are illegal. and lots of people do not get a chance to get integrated in your opinion. so i think it's something with the work on this is one of the of of the of the. focus points of the core task the european union should do rather than spend its time on all these petty projects these are policy areas we have to master in a very short period of time. i think a member of the european parliament thank you for speaking without the. live.

portugal on fronts step up to. the ball where the n.b.a. has not cancelled all of its games until at least the middle of the samberg the players deciding to go down the lawsuit against the team owners even. disagreement moved from courtside to the court room. the league's labor stalemate is nearing the one hundred forty day mark but the battle for a new collective bargaining agreement is yet to reach its climax the only thing that n.b.a. commissioner david stern and players representative billy hunter agree on at this point is that the two thousand and eleven two thousand and twelve season is under threat fans of the game of course don't want to hear that especially after last season's while the exciting spectacle we saw the dallas mavericks upset the odds and secure the n.b.a. crown the owners insist on bringing the cost of players under control by introducing a hard salary cap teams could exceed the total salary limit through luxury tax

and other exceptions under the previous agreement something the players would like to keep intact. the multimillion business of basketball also raising obvious questions about revenue split between the two sides the players previously took home fifty seven percent of all basketball related income and the owners want a bigger slice of that pie the p.r.i. includes not only salaries but also money from such sources of broadcast rights gate receipts sponsorships concessions and many others the owners also want shorter contracts paying less guaranteed money to cut their losses on underperforming players commissioner stern claims that the n.b.a. lost over a billion dollars under the previous agreement including more than three hundred million last season for the twenty two of the league's thirty teams were also in the red last year according to stern the owner's ultimatum like final proposal

which calls for a fifty fifty split of annual income and a seventy two game season starting december fifteenth was a phatic be rejected by the players and now a class action and i trust lawsuit against the league has been filed by players and at least can states they're seeking triple the amount of money they would have made had the full season gone ahead and sue in court cases could now take months once. the national football league meanwhile had a lockout of their own to settle earlier this year but that disputes completely forgotten by now with the n.f.l. busy rake in an enormous profits its revenue sharing system and sick period teams parity allows everybody to keep their pocket stuff while the n.b.a. which has had only six different champion since one thousand nine hundred ninety nine looks to suffer greatly after just beginning to restore its popularity since the michael jordan days during the past season the buns of course the marquee.
