paris thank you very much for joining us now the title of your documentary that's a pretty self-explanatory can you tell us what the main message is on that documentary you know we started with the idea that the another countries there where are there no other solutions to this grace is that they weren't mentioned in greece by the government or the mainstream media but then we wanted also not only as a journalist but also was citizens to explain to the government to explain to their european nation that we are not these lazy people we spend more than we are and we wanted to explain that what happened in greece is actually the same with what happened in portugal or in ireland or in spain it is a structural problem of the world financial system but at the same time a structural problem of the eurozone because your resume its system but creates

deficits and debt to the european very very while at the same time creates services to the european core so it's not a lazy nation it's not just the structural problems of the greek economy which of course exist it's also something deeper that comes i believe some from the european union so a few years ago no one was talking or criticizing the euro now i think it's something like thirty thirty five percent but see we should believe the eurozone which is huge for greece what do you think is going to happen around the country meeting forward we're going to do for weeks i mean. we knew that many years now that it's just impossible to reach a debt of three hundred sixty billion euros the next step is to decide. if we will stay in the eurozone or if we have to leave and then if we decide that we have to leave there will be of course

a problem with the banking sector it's highly probable that if we collapse and then the third step down switches to nationalize the banks. you have to take control of the banking system and to impose strict control in the capital flow so that only because capital doesn't leave the country this may sound you know revolutionary but it's not it's actually what iceland the few months ago and managed to survive in in this crisis but we have to say that it's a different thing if we decide to default if we decide to leave the eurozone and before we decide to nationalize the banks certainly it's a completely different story if these decisions are imposed by the european union or the international monetary fund in this second scenario it might be catastrophic for greece are you talking about you look still tentative options to be staying in the year you think why do you think it took so long for these options to be

discussed there are many reasons first of all because the mainstream media are controlled by the same economic elite that control the. construction companies it's the same families to just a few families who control the media and these families wanted the i.m.f. in the country no i think that these economic elites doesn't agree anymore they realize that they might lose control of the banking sector or that other banks from abroad might come under see. and that we are losing so very good foreign companies might come and take a bigger share so it's also from these economic elites that the realize that now they have to stop they have to have a red line and of course it's the people who realized after these months that the

government was lying to them that there is no solution with us thirty three that we have to take more. radical measures now you know whatever happens it's going to be an incredibly tough right ahead how the people here feel about feet people are afraid and the black maids every day they are saying to them that look if you don't accept what the europeans are saying if you don't accept this there are the measures imposed by the government and by the i.m.f. it will be held. you won't have salaries for the next month we be outside the euro zone and no one will lend us money it's every day blackmail so they are afraid of greece is being described as a problem child figure it's a myth here in the country people actually feel that greece is being made a bit of a state gates out so do you think that's fair so i said yes but at the same time the greek economies of course their weakest link in the european very very so we

were actually normal but all the problems we would start from greece there are many structural problems in the greek economy of course these are not the problems that usually europeans talk about it's not that we are not paying our taxes or that we are not working enough if you see the statistics from always to be you would realize that we were more than any other european nation that we have less vacation and that in general we're paying our taxes like all the other people and people who are not paying the taxes you see very small for. it's where most of the money greece has become doc's heaven for a few and the taxpayer for the majority of the population this is the main problem i think and of course there is also extreme extreme defense spending very square option in many other problems maybe just say much about these assassinations

victory actually tell us how these matches back to people's life here in greece you know the good people are losing. their rights that have gained in the twentieth century as workers and employees and it's not by coincidence that there are humanitarian organizations that are used to war in sub-saharan africa but they are now coming in athens and they're saying that the coverdell of greece is facing a humanitarian crisis so that gives you an idea about what's going on there the medium wades used to be seven hundred euros now it's around five hundred euros you know just a few months there for the first time after the second world war people who don't have enough money for food it's something that no one would expect just one year ago so this is the situation in these was created by their spirit the measures

that they were that were imposed. by brussels barely and the greek government to get another document shake coming out the working on it may eventually telephone that out yes we believe that the next step. when you leave under economic occupation is that for a nurse and the greeks there we try to sell off the public property and we are following example seen other countries from united states who are us or their money or united kingdom where there were massive braver days ation programs that destroyed the social structure we do. believe that it will be the next day. in greece they will try to sell off everything they only speak for people here and it's not just the austerity measures that they're angry about but the way that they feel they have some of the democratic rights. i think that the greek government and i'm afraid that probably the greek state too has lost. legitimacy of the day with

the democratic legitimacy that needs in order to stay in power we should have been in the square just a few days ago during going to liberation where people were so wangari against the police is that they were attacking them actually in the streets there was no member of the governing party that could walk in the streets so you understand that. these political system that was created after the end of the dictatorship in seventy four it's actually like a zombie it's dead and alive at the same time the problem is that there's no one term of the solution at the moment. the old system is dead but then you he's gets to be born chiqui speak in or out of the year and i think that the eurozone is on the brink of collapse either way i mean it's not our problem i think a. group man was saying just a few days ago that. is the main problem at the moment for the eurozone to end he

was. saying writing in new york times that it's better for the eurozone to collapse sooner rather than later personally i believe that we should exit the eurozone because it is the responsible for this crisis in greece but of course again depends on who takes the initiative for now in the usa projects start to phoenix such an open china feed the countries like ways that we now think about three disintegrates first we believe that the european union. we not only an economic and monetary union but the political union of a union of the people and for a country that. was. coming back to democracy after seventy years of dictatorship it was really a dream that the european union we provide to us peace and security we

laid there realized that that was not the case that the european union and especially the eurozone was just a monetary union was just the too weak in the self but big banks and that foreign corporations in order to do their job are more easy and to take control of the populations especially in new european thirty three so start that as a green not only for greece they also believe for portugal or spain this is the same thing and it is becoming a heavy day baby year over year thank you very much for joining us.

i had to go through ten year old boy over there. we train him how to tell his officers develop the orders for them to you know. we never explain to them why it's ok. most people at the point of looking down in time to pull the trigger became conscientious objectors. and i don't remember squeezing the trigger and i don't remember seeing him go down all i remember is that we shot him. soon. reciters soldiers two and soldiers do it so we do and they're trying to kill us we're trying to kill them and that's just the ugly face a war. nothing

a football and defending champions that it simply just blow could go six points clear at the top of the russian premier league if they win it's time to look over to the sunday it's one of the last games before the winter break and certainly it is for the john as for that his men as they take on a lot of side who slipped to sixth in the championship going off getting up just one point for the last three games but it's a nice slip up the second placed a scot could go level with them one point if they win and expanding in the leagues a final fixture will play regimes on march the first well meanwhile earlier in the relegation group the second he's just gone through one long without become. hungry for the answer rock bottom tom finally ended their nine game losing streak with a goal is draw attention relegation great leaders class and on both teams created a number of scoring opportunities and smoke were still unable to break the deadlock despite the point tom remain a seven points from safety and all windows seems to light passing don't stink six

point three or four still the top. stuff laid down by moscow missed the chance to go second in the championship. group after losing to new and ten minute bean among young kept firing home to just four minutes to go to the start of the nice double standard to twenty two minutes box with society minutes of normal time left saw the two in buckets emotion and straight red card punching luke luke scheer however the twice for the champions held on to their advantage going into male to leap from the committee and into fifth line and finally the right place and i'm a stay sit. up meanwhile spotlight failed to capitalize on the numbers slip and that top two ambitions also took a dent as they were held one on one the symmetry henri put it down by trust you side to head off to thirty seven minutes however with four minutes left it was

a spectacular equaliser with in my k.f. levelling that it happened side and neither seeing them find a winner spots x. they forced the bomb assistance. while over in the relegation group began the second bottom spot at now check one of three now it's time to start acting after that a point of safety they haven't got it open for the higher side stroke a soft time and ten minutes into the second half michael let me cliche that it's the first of his two goals make most of a one on one change with no tuneup topping that is another to make it three miles now to stay in the relegation zone with now just one point behind six baseball that correct stay sit. down in same group play as a better off move four points clear of the drop zone with a vital one no when it came to fellow specialist though i was for the sake of the lanka stock which turned out to be the winner after just eleven minutes both sides

had a number of chances in the woodwork. while the fun was a rumor one told us the best. so it finished one nil to good idea. up to fourth of all got a point about the allegations that. while over in england a controversial penalty saw second place managed united missed the chance to fully narrow the gap to premier league leaders city as they were held one more time to ten minute castle and this puts united ahead just after half time but within fifteen minutes the visitors levelled another spot three down but bought referees assistant really rio ferdinand to walk down there and then after the replay shows the defender got the ball and it's pretty obvious were sent off late on my prize held on for a point while square defender thomas vermaelen scored for both sides as arsenal came back to draw one wanted for them everton one to military man struggles bolt and chelsea big wolves three now grant holt hits the late winner is no expat q.p.r.

to want stoke blackburn three wants to send one of his bottom franco to santos a last minute winner at sunderland help we're going to move off the bottom and the one you're out of by all struck twice as tough and came back to defeat west brom three one after a strong second half performance. to encourage him but you know if it was good we've got to realize that we have to play like we did second of you know the first dog wasn't good enough and i told him out of joint you know that they needed in our what was it our people at first of. the second over felt we are part of the true story come in the game and running the people. and we look different to you. later this sunday evening in manchester city could go seven points to the top but they would have to win at liverpool this one is a take on aston villa. of now and american german sharon gary woodland hits since birdies in a final round of sixty seven to win the world cup by two shots at mission hills in

china the pair wore down the two stroke overnight lead held by islands warry mcelroy and graeme mcdowell with birdies on the first two holes then four more birdies. moved them to twenty four under par as ireland faded with four bogeys in a seventy two to state twenty one under england's in poulter and justin rose carded a nine and a part sixty three to finish second i was i germany on twenty two under. tennis now roger federer will take on jo wilfried tsonga later this sunday as the swiss star prepares for the one hundred final of his career at the end of season well till finale in london federer enjoyed a straight sets win over dallied fair in the semifinals well the opener was close but the swiss clinched a crucial so to go six five up. then down at the next game to take the set seventy five haven't beaten federer in eleven attempts before this

match and didn't threaten to upset the four. going on to lose the second set six three three i had an amazing achievement look. three hundred fines is not something you ever think it's possible but then when it happens it kind of hits you and everybody talks about it and gives a great motivation you know trying to achieve it to go through forever and a few other top players this week trying to get there and still haven't won the tournament so it's a lot of hard work and trying to sort of pace myself and look at two overexcited quite yet but. this is really near now and i hope i can give it one last push and hope i can win one hundred final. meanwhile song go check tom nash verdict in his semi final the first second the way of the frenchman six three i second a bit closer sound came through it when in this crucial point six five

up i said i use a match point i said thirty ten federal in fifteen days will be hoping it's their time lucky to after losing to federer in paris last weekend in the round robin stage of this tournament i mean awful with one champion sebastian vettel is ending the year in style after the red bull driver secured a record breaking fifteenth pole position in one seat. and to start at the front of the grid for the final race in brazil well this is the last race of the season and vettel is favorites to win it the twenty four year old finishing just ahead the red bull team mate mark webber qualifying. nigel mansell previous record of fourteen poles in one year terence jenson button and lewis hamilton are second second for i obviously they took the master in discipline nigel mansell a couple races less but yeah still very very historical and. very special

to me. and finally the who's who of the international olympic movement descended on moscow this weekend for a prestigious ball he celebrates the russian olympic committee seventeen we run cars for every ports. the london summer olympics are just around the corner and most athletes are in their final preparation stages perhaps that was one of the reasons why the olympic balls guests were largely the heads on functionaries of various sports organizations from around the world but the stars of the past were on hand to enjoy the well deserved praise from the big wigs and today's athletic talent. was that it i think a true russian is one who takes pride in russia's difficult and sometimes controversial legacy and in the russian language i mean both the history and the language the names of our heroes the heroes of russia are carved in them they are part of them and this is important that's all our people feel related to their

achievements while the rest of the world feels aware of it russia is a nation of many olympic records us. there then it was held right next to the kremlin and didn't go unnoticed by russia's leadership with vladimir putin joining to congratulate all the country's athletes past and present and highlighting political values in modern society mcgettigan said jim stood i see a star we are proud of the fact that russia was practically one of the originators of the olympic movement but you share in the olympic philosophy and values and ideas about the battle between talent and hard work the spirit of friendship and solidarity fair competition noble victories these things are part of any nation's character these values help to unite humanity and bring nations closer together the prime minister later joined the presidents of the russian and international olympic committees at the ball where the trio must have had plenty to discuss given that the biggest country on earth is about to take the center stage for world sport's

greatest spectacles was always a ship with the ice used to go to the russian cities will soon become the grounds of major global sporting events that i'm referring to the university as the olympics before pool and hockey world cups and many other major competitions like. we understand how important these events are for the future of russia for the young people of our country the entire russian nation and for the cause of promoting the values of a healthy lifestyle russia's next major international event take place in two years' time when cousin hosts the twenty third team university games for now those celebrations aside the country's eyes are on the athletes who are about to be tested at the summer games in london ramon koester of r.t. moscow. and that's all this.
