a small park near wall street had turned into a nationwide movement that has spread to countries all across the world from toronto to was tokyo cities all across the globe but the greatest and the message that these protesters are putting out which is the frustration of the corporate greed the control of the political system they perceive by the few corporate elites by those with the means and the wealth and the inability for the average american to essentially put food on the table to live in the stuff i saw you just see the man some of the frustrations that the protesters here have expressed and it is what we are seeing spreading across the country now the events in new york city have been tense filled with extreme tension many clashes with these officers and the protesters following the lead that took place not only in new york city but from the country in many of the occupations from clinton to denver to portland to all kinds of other cities to many arrests and that's

a two hundred or so protesters have been arrested although we expect the numbers will be much higher once all of the information comes to bear we have seen unfortunately a lot of instances of a seemingly unprovoked the taliban by the police force in many cases the protesters were simply sitting perhaps standing in an area that's a little bit too close to the sidewalk they were met with brute force by the police department many of them slammed down onto the grounds handcuffed and physically dragged away the occupy wall street movement was really crossed into the spotlight following the mass arrests there were witnesses on this very bridge the brooklyn bridge several weeks ago where seven hundred protesters were candles by police setting. for the most part whether or not their methods will actually result in policy changes remains to be seen but they're certainly being heard by the press by the residents and by the samaritans all across the united states reporting for our seat on the brooklyn bridge and to speak out you know. he's keeping abreast of the

protesters they've been parked at every corner they have walked with the protesters and if you take a look here in the potomac river there they are there waiting. right now with closely following the growth of all the protests in washington d.c. and philadelphia he's going to just a carrot and christine for solid up there to the latest potential comments from the very spots where the ntsa taking place. earlier i spoke to faith and senior correspondent for the independent media routes news organization he believes the police are purposefully going beyond the call of duty to the princess and the but really what we're seeing here is we have to really crush the occupy wall street movement clearly they're trying to hit the protesters with the shock and awe and part of their newfound backfired and so now they're trying to find different prepared i think that in the united states. you know. you can wear

a few you know the protesters are really learned a lesson nonviolent direct action and it's really very effective and the port of oakland shutdown is really send a message to the political establishment that you know people really think the two parties be catered if they're really fed up with this and they're just not going to stand for it anymore so that's what we're seeing. i mean ball on a different continent the mood is much the same as a new wave of unrest attests to europe. thousands the streets of spain greece public anger with incessant cuts and tax hikes comes to a head growing fears of the effect austerity in trying to ration. along with some of its posts partners who take the first steps to setting up a new economic body. as the blueprints of a european union will seek further integration between the region states. joins us

live now with more on the story and he said so the states are going to use their strategic partnership but what exactly do they expect to get out of it. they certainly are this will build on an already existing customs union between russia belarus and kazakhstan but the eurasian union will go even further it's meant to promote trade and economic cooperation with the asia pacific region and doing that by creating a new market that will unite legislation it will provide free chapel close services and human resources some experts we've been speaking to even think and go as far as to say that this is the only way to protect those three countries from the economic crisis that's spreading across europe and around the world. to. the eurasian union to become a corridor products services and workforce between europe america and asia the union is europe's only way to survive the chaos and the current fiscal crisis which

it was you. know the union will build a migration system very much like what we see with the shan again agreement in europe it is meant to a lower cost sums tariffs also create unified trade standards and it's expected that it will encourage businesses to invest in modernization of the three countries and also to very soon. really boost our competition also we're hearing from from different experts that it could like i said reverse the global economic downturn that we're seeing and there's a possibility that it will expand in the future countries like ukraine could possibly join analysts they're saying that they have a union like this existed some years back they would be in a very different situation financially today. if the project was realized back in two thousand and four when the ukrainian parliament confirmed that's not an establishing a united economic zone i'm sure my country would have gone through the financial

crisis more easily and our economy would be in a different position today. but the oficial signing will take place in the kremlin later today as russia kazakhstan and belarus sign down to officially start eurasian union analysts experts and economists around the world of course waiting to see what impact it has on the markets and of course some experts say that it will ease dialogue and communication relations with the european union as well. it's now way thank you for that. but initially planned as an economic party for you asian economic union and also become an arena for some major political discussions says i guess i was under some boner. there are some phrases. in the. made by the officials top officials in russia that allow us to think to believe that this project will be

a political. russia because russia really wants to prove its people soviet space is indeed these spirits privileged interests but starting from the economic agenda moving to the political. fold into the e.u. patent will be a good way of moving forward prove by proving the allies if this union is viable in an economic sense then of course a political life of this union a political exams will also be successful. russia and kazakhstan were once united this part of the world's biggest state u.s.s.r. but that unity ended two decades ago with. g.m.t. we continue our series of special reports from the member states of ted this time the focus here. twenty years ago the largest country in the disappearance of.
