across eastern europe has now claimed the lives of one hundred sixty four people snow was two meters high in parts of serbia leaving around eleven thousand villages stranded in remote parts of the country one hundred people have died in ukraine alone the temperatures plummeted to minus thirty degrees celsius food shortages have been reported in the capital kiev with trucks are unable to transport supplies . the watchful eyes of webcams are about to be set up across russia head of next month's presidential elections move was proposed by premier putin so after thousands of people took to the streets late last year calling for transparency in the election process wanted to go to school as the story. inch after inch mile after mile big brother is preparing to cast his eyes on polling stations as the massive campaign to install web cameras is in full swing across the entire nation but actually sometimes but i

think if anything i ask the central electoral commission to install web cameras at all polling stations across the country so that everyone can watch online what's happening there how much twenty four hours a day. that only. the idea was put forward following the biggest protests in russia since the collapse of the u.s.s.r. with tens of thousands demanding fair elections so wiring up over ninety thousand polling stations is the scale and around a half of a billion us dollars is the price tag. coming into the system is not be made only for one day we help this project want only develop elections acknowledges but will also help modernize telecommunications infrastructure across the entire country. all cameras will be feeding the videos they threw into local digital storage facilities after computer processing will be then sent to seven large storage and distribution centers via cable radio and satellite these centers will then

broadcast the information to several web portals it's estimated that all together the cameras will film and broadcast four hundred and ninety years of video information in good quality however there is still down to this technology will help make the vote more transparent. you'll get a bunch sure the observers won't be able to check to advance if these cameras work or not now. everyone knows about cameras in supermarkets but this still doesn't stop robberies from happening. it's every ballot box will be monitored by two cameras one with the general view and another with a close up of the slot there are many ways to rig it and the cameras don't provide a hundred percent guarantee against it but using that should still make it much more difficult to stuff boxes of course there is nothing new. or web cameras.

using them to monitor elections on such a scale is a first for any mission and regardless of the success of the idea everyone will be able to monitor the vote online and not to mention no one is against having more real life observers on the spot he was one of our to moscow. to katie now for the business. hello welcome to the business program this hour market what is expect the darkness of the year as i'm problems to get some light. writing agency standard and poor's expects the currency union to gradually climb out of its mild recession in the second half of this year and into two thousand and thirteen the sun's chief european economist john mitchell six explains. the risks of a more severe recession. that could go into twenty thirteen that are significant we

estimate about forty percent probability yet i think we have to look at all the factors there has been some encouraging developments inside the u. was own and outside the eurozone what we expect is the moment from emerging markets particularly. asia to strengthen again in the second half of the year and that should be supportive of a very gradual recovery in the eurozone we also expect that investors' confidence will gradually come back. as they do up here in central bank continues to provide ample liquidity to the banking sector in the euro zone. of course not everyone agrees some say bank thinks the prospects for the eurozone are as harsh as the wife of extreme weather that's got europe and its icy grip is predicting an economic apocalypse with europe in extreme markets losing

a quarter of their value we also author of the best seller extreme on a sucker down asked where he's placing his that. well i think the best way to describe the s. and p. report is whatever they're smoking i'd like to have said as far as the sex a bad report goes i think they are believers in the mayan calendar which believes that the world will indeed do thousand and twelve but i think the major thing is that when you look at the situation there is no way that europe is going to have a small recession it's going to have a long recession because the government spending will have to be cut and that has been the major stimulus which could be as economies go the second thing is the banking system in most of these countries is not creating any credit will not be able to create this technically if you are honest about it they are marginally solvent good bets and we still have not result did you shoot at the real question is what will happen to portugal what will happen to spain what will happen to italy
