video on demand. with the palm of your. comb. come back time for a look at the main headlines. thousands march in moscow and st petersburg where the rallies both for and against the outcome of russia's parliament through the actions on election results are still due but not enough for parties to secure its position as the biggest party. america's criticism of the poll saying no one should question the choices made by the russian people u.s. secretary of state hillary clinton wants an investigation of. europe's key leaders

making plans to reorganize the structure of the e.u. as a way of solving the debt crisis that's ahead of last ditch summit in brussels where europe's power players are expected to agree on tighter controls on member states. as europe's leaders run up their sleeves and prepare to slug it out for the euros very survival he hears from a lawmaker in the blocks chief paymaster general parliamentarian frank shai for now explains why ponting knew that sort of old ones can only lead to collapse. well the skies over the european economy continuing to darken how real is the threat of the collapse of the euro zone to try to find an answer to this and some other questions now joined by a member of the german parliament from the free democratic party frank schaeffer mr scheffer thank you very much for joining me and first of all how would you agreed

the efforts by merkel and sarkozy deceived the eurozone and are the heading in the right direction. ninth is in no it's a project that's been designed by those at the top of the european union needs the steps that would bolster the market economy and that would be adjusted so that it could fit into the market economy according to the rules of the market economy if you decide to take on the risks you have to bear the responsibility for these risks the projects that are enforced from the top will not be able to operate under such conditions such projects should work from the bottom up but. you're going bureaucrats and their allies in national governments want to see more fiscal control over national governments more control over their budgets also how much centralization of the european union meeting your opinion the european union does not need more centralization excessive centralization has actually been

the key problem and the reason that we are facing the current crisis the euro has been a project of the planning economy developed and inforced from the top the members that have become part of the eurozone project are very much different from one another and cannot provide a common homogenous currency space that's what has become so obvious under the present situation now they want to resolve the problem by introducing more centralization centralization is the root cause of the problem the economy speaks for itself the capital flight is enormous and some analysts say that the situation resembles that in the us before the crash of the brothers how real is the threat of the collapse of the euro zone now. the threat of a complete collapse of the eurozone is a means that is used by the europeans and the banks to blackmail european taxpayers if this pressure is not resisted then the so-called rescue umbrella will have to be extended over and over but every umbrella has its limits of course if greece had

enough to default on its bills it would have also had negative consequences for the other european states that no country in the european union will be able to go on without. tough reforms must be pressure on the states to conduct its reforms but it can only be possible when risks and responsibility come together so that the countries living beyond their means realize it and do something about it. insuring european bonds and that those countries in a stronger economic position have to pay for the trouble was is this the correct price to solve the problem. you know i don't consider this to be a reasonable way to solve the problem i'd like to emphasize once again risks and responsibilities should be indivisible and no additional loans original investments can solve the problem but it's not possible to repaint old debts while making more new debts the crucial moment here is for every country to do their own homework in

other words for every country to take full responsibility for its own economy it was captured in the agreement framework of both the european union and the euro zone but the currently perceived policy is such that it is at all with these agreements it destroys the european usual it erodes its common values as well as destroying the common monetary and economic space this leads to the domino theory as we see more and more countries trying to hide from solving their own problems under the umbrella of. what you think it's fair to say that this euro bonds and mechanism can actually create more financial problems for the healthiest european economies. yes these are dangerous measures and they're quite dangerous for stable economies as well or it's especially clear today if we consider the example of france which is paying off dangerously high interest on its national debt and runs the risk of losing its aaa status. is also facing the same prospect and if france

were to lose its aaa status the entire bailout package for the euro zone will be placed at risk as it could become until it's a well known fact that. euro zone's bailout package. relies on the economies of six states finland the netherlands luxembourg austria germany and france austria and france's economies a new at risk we can say that the currently implemented measures really are not working and euro bonds are based on the principle of mutual guarantees which can actually create a system similar to the one. when the global economic crisis actually started in two thousand and eight i think it's fair to say that putting off the crash of the system through euro bonds and other financial stabilization mechanism can actually make the situation even worse in the end yeah. that's exactly what all these

bailouts only add fuel to the floods and only make the situation in europe. such countries as greece portugal and possibly even one island will not be able to emerge victorious from the current crisis they won't be able to recover the only measure that can you help is cutting heavily on state expenditure and other measures only an attempt to delay the. time is a luxury we don't. mr schaeffer you yourself have proposed about feeling banks should not receive any go out at all but what could be the consequences of. the collapse of the euro zone one look at the global carving into it all i think. has its repercussions no doubt but let me say again that piling new debts on top of the old ones will only make matters worse and ultimately lead to the euro zone's collapse i don't think that the eurozone is going to survive in its current form it will very likely have to change so. if we look at the way. currently developing we

can see that we're going in a very different way greece's economy is shrinking it has shrunk by five percent on the other hand germany and the member of the other countries are growing albeit at a slow rate. is only going to grow what we need now. and secession from the euro zone to enable countries like greece to pull out of. their economy and then years to cut government spending and improve their economic standing it's very hard for me to predict how the situation would develop even more so the consequences of developments as i say i don't think the eurozone will collapse complete like it's much more likely that we'll see some of its members back to launch a number of its members secede from the e.u. i cannot see how secession is causing any repercussions on a global scale perhaps they'll put pressure on other countries with bad economies and force their governments to start reforms i think they're the problem we see in

the euro zone and excessive government debt has affected all of the world's economies. look at russia the u.s. japan and they're all worried about the subject of. what is your forecast for the italian crisis do you think that you know we should also consider moving back to national currency i. do not think italy would pull out of the eurozone we really need sufficient reforms to revitalize its economy and allow us to maintain a strong italian economy and. what the country needs most is the trust of its own people over fifty percent of the bonds issued. the italian government are in the hands of the people because the government will have to prove to its people that its capable of playing its tanks. and finally saving the european union has become some sort of a religion. the european elite. have already saving the euro project imposed from the top down based on overrating the notion of

a european unity after all if europe is not merely the seventeen states that formed the euro zone it's not even the twenty seven member states of the european union in fact europe comprises some fifteen nations and by the way that includes russia which is also part of europe with that in mind i believe it was the elites headquartered in brussels that promoted this project from the top aiming to drive europe into a new form of centralism and i think it will in my mind europe's advantage is exactly its implicit in its and its diversity in forms of different cultures languages mentalities and the people it comprises and imposing uniformity looks like a mistake to me this notion probably stems from the so-called brussels centralism mindset which has been put in practice by the french it's very dangerous and completely unnecessary. for thank you very much for your time thank you.

i. think people who believed in trade for many years in a soviet system has faded away in less than twenty four hours as bell of this kind of push up coupled with below we acted in a true russian style we didn't know exactly what the future would bring that were to think about later the three leaders come together and sign an agreement dissolving the u.s.s.r. for good to get rid of the so called big brother that was always controlling them was the dream of many republics but. but in the eyes of the people they put it like this i will liberate you from the kremlin oppression no one wants to take the blame . would not be able to persuade gorbachev and besides she's bored could not be relied upon. she could tell you anything and do something completely different

question for you myself for being too liberal and in the sand boris yeltsin or i should have that was my mistake. this is the decisive in strict boris yeltsin that sets in the kremlin instead of good stuff at the time. i don't think we have left elevator forest soaries. decades have passed but the discussion still rages was this applause or a fait accompli. the black sea coast future developments depend on the good way. to go area first place to many flights champions and the most ambitious.

the sports need to enjoy in the champions league threw up her some interesting results last night and like areas any did what they had to do against pole to reach the next round chelsea ended up finishing on top of the great something no one was predicting neither of us were predicting. the details plus the reaction in the mind . hello there you're watching the sports and these are the headlines making history's any reach the knockout stages of the champions league for the very first time after holding porto to gold a straw in portugal. while chelsea's team into the last sixteen is group winners with a three no win over the landsea. one of the sun to get moscow only to upset inter to keep their slim chances of qualification alive. first russian champions and have

made it through to the champions league knockout stage for the very first time a goal destroy against porto in portugal enough to see them finish second in group g. behind. porto needed to win this game to progress but the st petersburg side defended solidly for a vital point and that saw them finish second behind that's a great start and apple well it topped the group despite a two no defeat ukraine shakhtar donetsk afterwards to meet coach on this but that he said his side does the progress while porto were left with the prospect of defending their europa league title. we're sad because we wanted to go through in the champions league it was not possible now we have to look at your own police as an important objective therefore we're going to keep on working and try to do our best to be believe we're champions to the current holders of the title and we want to defend the title which we conquered last season. i think we could have done better but i also think that what happened was that i

would come out of the way we played in the group stage and all that managed to go through. elsewhere chelsea went through the last sixteen with a three you know when i was the lens here at stamford bridge to go so he did he had one from were made as ensuring they won the group ahead of the tree won one game in belgium and then say take the europa league spot while blue. didn't how backing saying what last night meant to him and his pals. use tools. are only going to be very good for me to talk. to the. really really ready for the team and to be excellent. so we're going to. push through the going to. be. two three producers and. this is.

just a group. with plenty of drama in craig coming back from tino was down in dortmund to win three two with a goal in the last minute a result which sends the french side through to the last sixteen along with already qualified at n.p.r. cos having to settle for a year right by the place despite that when i with a gun is. winning and we thought we will make it to the next stage it would turn the match and that was cruel it left us a bit disillusioned. now defending champions barcelona and i had already qualified for the group h. but had differing fortunes last night raising three was great winners after a thumping he bought a cell phone at the nou camp that despite resting place at the el classico with real madrid weekend i mean wall that separates you go late in the final couple of minutes. with czech side bills and go into the europa league. the

draw for the last sixteen in the champions league will be made we called. friday and also hoping to be in the hat at tesco moscow but they've only a slim chance they've been training at the san siro where they have to beat him tonight and then hope and trouble in sport draw in the other guy in group. a bottom of that at the moment but if everything goes their way they would finish second behind into who've already qualified with a scar closely you see if he isn't pretending it's going to be easy. to do it took for extortion we don't know the lineup of may have a large number of great players it's difficult for us to plan for a match like these but we have prepared some think and to morrow we'll try to do our best. so this is how i think. it is pretty tight. legal and trumps all chasing the second spot for a place in the last sixteen of the champions late what is currently anyone's

relying on favorable results munches decisions champions league prospects hanging by a thread they are relying on some extremely favorable results to see them three the third place side must win at home to group a win is by munich while also hoping rock bottom of a reality at least second place not only to draw city character but a man cheney says he's prepared for whatever the outcome we should do that. we need to be. free that would be easy. the job after if. it's not going to try to really probably get to. this bunch tonight today will have their fate in their own hands but they must get at least a point against with sidebars or he would go through themselves if they get a win at their home ground tonight the last time united failed to make the knockout

stages back in two thousand and six but their manager sir alex ferguson denies it's been a bad campaign so far saying that three three draw with bars a little trafford earlier in the year was their only misfire. always. suffering from the council most in the game against basel really someone that you can ruin. because we won because for the driver you. supported. very much you know. now in other news boxing world heavyweight champion vladimir klitschko will reshape your his counsel fight against john mark more make for next march and it could also see his brother the charlie fight david haye on the same card the moment thought had been shared to for this weekend but was called off after the anime had a kidney stone removed however his brother charlie here says that's not been rich we shared jewels on march the third and also claims he could fight britain's daisy

on the same evening early this year hey lost is there will be a belt of that in me also holds the. title in the tally is the w.b.c. champ says he'd love to have the chance to knock the brits after his fight against florida i was happy and disappointed as well i was glad that my brother won the fight against doing hay and to the last remaining heavyweight championship belt that was not included cause brother school action i was disappointed just because some of the little nuance that bloody murder couldn't bind should be struck or i mean to win by knockout it's only aim i have to fight with david haye. finally a forum has been held in moscow to increase cooperation between the lympics cities of london and the respective host of the next summer and winter games and as rich and poor reports both parties are looking to learn from each other. lympics is the most watched sporting event in the world billions worldwide are

expected to watch the london games which got underway in this for nine months time . however getting ready to host the globes biggest sporting it's trying to ganza is understandably no easy task and that's why london sought she looking to learn from each of its successes and mistakes in london's preparation for the games have been exemplary the way they set out their blueprint in their bid and then carried out that blueprint sochi have already been following that and have learnt a lot from how london have been preparing think the way london has tried to be a sustainable green games has been very successful and sochi again have tried to not only follow but even exceed those standards the meeting was held at the british embassy in moscow where members of the organizational committees and business communities from both cities got together to exchange ideas however to join tips who's helped to organize almost a dozen lympics the key is finding

a good leader so one of the great things about sochi twenty fourteen that they've learnt from london is the importance of having very strong leadership a good visionary leader and in dmitri chernyshenko that's exactly what they've got he's leading an incredibly strong and passionate team who work incredibly long hours and it's the same as london with lord coe and i think this this is this very important for the world and even pick movement to see the whole progress being driven by an inspirational leader and i think they have that in dmitri chernyshenko cities had to build a number of new venues for the games in london have the advantage of having a world class transport system already in place the same could be said of song she where everything is having to be built from scratch i think the games are a catalyst for incredible change both infrastructure and social change and economic change in the region i think the russian government working to develop the. in any way but even pick games provide that impetus they provide the catalyst for change

which enables everyone to focus both in russia and outside russia focus on the region and now today sochi is truly on the map because of the them pick games console she has just over two years to prepare for the two thousand and fourteen winter games londonstani the sport lines is just nine months away. cities have already learned heavily from canceling pics of the next two games hosts are continuing to compare notes to ensure they can produce to memorable sporting festivals which we don't see moscow and that brings us the end of the sport for the moment the weather is the. question is that so much i can tell you was most of us were. suffering hero today germany and france agree in principle at least that fiscal union in the euro zone

is the only way to. welcome the. science technology innovation all the latest developments from around russia we've got the future covered.
