11:30 am
co-ordination but also a better social policy that would sort of supporting puro only in my system it is that this europe will not be able to form such a political union there is too much hatred gin eighty the countries two different. countries are too attached to their own so often t. they have different styles they have a hard time working together on international issues think of iraq. and so it will be very hard to to have one address that foreigners can call heaven emerged she is there. that they will speak with one voice that are willing to give up their very seats in the united nations and the i.m.f. and they will speak voice it is at the moment inconceivable. that britain will give up their rights but also france is not even thinking of giving that up.
11:31 am
germany will become too powerful there's simply too much that prevents europe from becoming one political union if you want a german chancellor i'm going merkel she said that political union is already taking shape is it though and what is she basic that statement on well from where we are we are making progress in the stand in the sense of suggestions of because these are suggestions or plans to have stricter rules and to enforce those rules and her view and in her reality that is working moving towards a political union but my critique is that what is lacking and what they're really needed for political union is also in sense of society i think is not example germany germany is a society how do we notice that germany is a society the parts of germany form east germany. states.
11:32 am
that are a real dire financial economic situation much worse then than greece is right now do we notice anything about that in the rest of world. because west germans take it as a self as something self evident that they are to support the east german states there's massive transfers of money going from west to east to maintain a sense of unity and a sense of stability and therefore a sense of society those conditions are not in place and not can be imagined to be in place in europe at large how realistic is this transfer significant transfer of powers to brussels spending powers taxing powers given that you have so many different countries there's resistance coming from different places how realistic is it that it will actually happen the pressure is huge and
11:33 am
the financial crisis is big and the euro threatens to fall then lots of things are possible and on politicians will agree on all kinds of things including transfer of power that was inconceivably before or is actually consume inconceivable right now because people don't want to transfer the power but when the crisis really there then i see them. being able to do such a thing but it won't result in others because it's it means that you put some kind of control in the hands of the few there in brussel but they don't have the power to control the financial market they don't have the the financial power to deal with these kind of instabilities and they don't have the political influence to deal with all the different interests throughout europe it is sort of an an an idea that i think that in the end to a backfire because if you make centralize this power too much.
11:34 am
then what we'll see is is it needs a lack of dynamics a lack of that flexibility as we've seen already because takes forever to get these decisions and then take for ever to get through all these different parliaments and it takes even longer then to implement that i mean that we talk about the long lags . and so it just makes the politics too complex a greek government spokesman said quote unquote greece faces an exit from the europe bloc unless it clinches a deal on a second one hundred thirty billion bailout from its international lenders how much do you think they really believe in this threat is it something that they really think is likely or are they using this rhetoric to gain support for pushing more sturdy measures i think that they use it now as an argument to enforce all kinds of cutbacks and to get popular consent which they need into in order to make the policy effective i think that greece still an overall these are here to hold on to
11:35 am
the euro and the reason is that the greeks are very suspicious of their government there so they desperately want to have european government involved in their country because there's sort of a countervailing power against their own politicians the same story applies to you telling us. the issue is whether this is going to work i don't think so i think the left right and center are preparing for. the fall out of greece for the greeks are forced to step out of the euro because this is unsustainable. they were not going to need to tyria. economy is going to do worse which also makes it more difficult for me to get ereal and so this is simply not to sustain a sustainable situation the best spreadsheet is to do what iceland did from argentina has done so many other people other countries have done before is allowed
11:36 am
to have their own currency the value it through to make their country much cheaper and use that as a service to the beginning all the. efforts to organize commercial activity that the neighbors going to sell you have to sort of recover that and sort of and one way to do it is by lowering the price which you only can do with your of your own currency and to make it much cheaper if you don't do it the only alternative strategy is the very painful one is lowering salaries and wages and cutting back and that causes a huge depression in the economy and a real harsh way of making that adjustment well let's talk about politics now the two main cheerleaders of pushing the euro forward of course that germany's angela merkel and french president nicolas sarkozy now there will be the french elections in two thousand and twelve that germany will have theirs and twenty thirteen what
11:37 am
do you expect to happen in these elections and how would it affect the european union and the euro zone would we see a change in government a change in rhetoric that would eventually play out differently in the euro to hold on to the european union and especially to hold on to be euro. everyone has to make sacrifices and it's always possible if the european interest prevails over national interests and there's a message message is very hard to sell to any lection time you see in election time the people usually withdraw behind back behind the border so to say and basically talk about national interest interest that close. to the people who are going to cause their vote. it turns out this whole european story is a hard sell for politicians it's true in germany in france is also true in the netherlands. and so politicians always have
11:38 am
a difficulty all for asserting the sort of common european interest. that is sure to costing. money at all so resources. will suffer until that also is again an illustration of a lack of political union like a society that will become an issue and at the fate of european union is dependent upon local or national elections i'm not going to and that's of course crazy i mean you cannot imagine that a country any country. that faith or of any country is dependent upon the outcome of local confection elections that's unheard of and that illustrates once again the the union in europe is not all that strong and is forced to exist among the sort of european establishment so if you walk around in brussels you feel like
11:39 am
you are you the european union is for real but as soon as you away from brussels and walk around in the country in the rest of europe you see the brussel is far away from from them. and it's not real reality the people we live with when we talk to experts analysts and economists to even if they are euro skeptics it's a situation seems to have gotten so complicated that they would also mention concessions and they're saying that there are two choices now one is being forced into more europe more integration otherwise the alternative is a financial crisis are these the only two options left. i do think that if if you give up your up to your oath which i think you need to do we will face a so-called crisis i mean all kinds of institutions will get into serious trouble banks will fail countries will look at the trouble unemployment go up we will see your face a serious depression i think all that will materialize but what i also see is the
11:40 am
possibility and that's what i would focus on of restructuring your rethinking the way be doing things rethink also the way we view the economy focus less on economic growth focus more on quality. being more concerned this estate ability and so if you also would have for that i see action an opportunity arising if we give up on an ideal that i think is an old fashioned ball. and sort of people sells for the next stage now when we look at what politicians are doing right now it seems that they're walking on eggshells when it comes to dealing with financial markets and banks are careful not to rock the boat they're careful not to instill confidence in the markets what role do you see the financial markets and banks play in this right crisis lest we forget that they had also that just gone through to two thousand a financial crisis and they were painted in
11:41 am
a negative light at that time well the terrible thing is that we see that one sector the financial sector is keeping the rest of the going you hostage including the politicians and then all the politicians are to scare it's for these banks to fail it is it is unfair it is unjust. and it's also dangerous for should say debility of our economies so that has to stop are you a climber thanks very much for your time. white stream cascading from mountain slopes the view is miss mirage. this beauty brings deaths at a speed of more than four hundred kilometers per hour all. stepping down along.
