profit marina point ny r.t. new york. well russia has been trying to mediate a peaceful solution to the syrian conflict for months now and wants to host talks between the warring sides but one the middle east expert tells us here at r.t. that negotiations will be hard to bring about as long as the syrian opposition is simply rallying for regime change. but after the meeting with the russian foreign minister sergei lavrov expressed his readiness however the other side is not expressing its readiness there are some members of the syrian opposition who are expressing readiness however there are other sides a lot including the muslim brotherhood who actually don't seem to want to participate in the gauche ations and are setting preconditions or saying in order for us to enter negotiations assad must fall and i think that is part of a western edge on the the whole thing for the west is not about negotiations is about overthrowing a regime which is
5:07 am
a part of the i broke brought up block which washington or which some western states western powers want to get rid of including is are also wants to get rid of them. this is our team now greek politicians a last minute agreement on a fresh austerity plan so hasn't exactly been created with open arms a forty eight hour strike is being called by the country's two major labor unions and eurozone member states say they will put even more conditions on greece before handing out a second bell out after a struggle athens did manage to broker a multi-party austerity deal which has been demanded by creditors and was in place just a matter of hours before your of ministers met in brussels but they are still unhappy and unwilling to hand over one hundred thirty billion euros the rig parliament now has the part of pockets of cuts and reforms by sunday the journalist still be on the phone with this says the situation in the country is deteriorating and the consequences could be disastrous. but what we get from all these measures.
5:08 am
if we have all the default then we are in this situation where we have to face slow death from starvation in greece this situation in greece these extreme at the moment we have children playing being in their school because they don't have proper breakfast and because they don't they don't have enough food so you realize that the situation is getting worse and worse we have a lot of people as i told you that they are hungry at the moment first of all they demand the election which i have to tell you here and now they want elections they want to be seen second they have been wondering whose recipe are we following at the moment increases i mean the greek government recipe comes from the i.m.f. and they're simply doesn't work. it's going to do three each of you the troika gives their main. orders and you know that we get more and more seen the last two years. as they say and i agree with them easier to see this time to morrow rice
5:09 am
from the west than to see all these orders and all these measures bring us to growth and bring us back to normal life. and there robert all the chair of the london based think tank the bruges group believes that it's the european currency itself that's pushing greece to the edge greece is in severe economic difficulties and it's failed to meet many of the targets that the eurozone in the i.m.f. has set it for what it has to do in terms of to be able to reform its finances to be able to pay back some of the debts that it so that has been largely caused by issues to do with the euro itself and the problem that the euro creates and how it makes the greek economy competitive in it so basically greece cannot survive while it is in the euro and the more austerity measures which are being forced upon it or just hurt the greek economy even further wages have been cut by thirty percent on
5:10 am
average in greece pensions are being carved people are finding it very hard to survive because of the result of the austerity measures in the problems caused by the euro what they're doing at the moment is just throwing more money at the problem and really putting back the day when greece will have to deform will have to leave the euro. now at ten minutes past the hour here in moscow still to come in a program that separated spouses by israel or something thousands of palestinians from permanently living with israeli families. civil society in russia is moving to the forefront of politics with a mission to keep the upcoming presidential election fair and transparent a group of leading public and pro-active figures are joining forces and crucially they seem to have the support of the candidates and the voters are going to press going to fast. it doesn't take long to find videos of alleged violations
5:11 am
during the recent parliamentary vote in russia just a couple of clicks is enough and scores of these files have flooded the internet and even though most of the allegations are still to be proven in courts tens of thousands of people have been taking to the streets demanding fair elections with marches presidential votes just around the corner events are unfolding quickly where. people want to vote responsibly and to know where their votes go they want political competition independent courts in media and forming the voters' league is not meant the idea was floating in the air the voters league was officially founded in january by a group of journalists bloggers activists orders reuters and other public figures and stay with us blake t.v. host and now activists. have already asked for the head of a charity fund and blogger. also known as dr lisa.
5:12 am
or other school math ordinator of the blue buckets movement fighting for equal rights on roads for everyone. our league is an opportunity to gather people who are not indifferent to what's happening the more people with a civil position there are the better the leagues main goal is to ensure a fair election. it's published a list of initiatives on the web divided into groups that everyone can be a part of public discussions and online votes are the key instruments and letters have been sent to all presidential candidates asking them to cooperate with the week and even though the project is less than a month old everyone has so far agreed including pledging middleton another candidate businessman mikhail prokhorov has already struck a deal with the leak years ago and willing to authorize one hundred fifty thousand league observers would also arrange to put together a unified database to keep track of the election protocols according to its
5:13 am
founders around ten thousand observers are needed to ensure a fair election in moscow alone. it's great that the civil society wants to be more active but it's clearly important not to cross the line and observers not only are a position it is serious so if limitations not to take sides in the political process. it is the league's founders say they'll shut the organisation down if it ever starts turning into a political movement claiming they are keen to work with all candidates equally there's no doubt society has changed more people want to have more influence on russia's political life perhaps that's why it took less than one month for the voters league to establish ties with both the authorities and the opposition and with the help of promise from candidates the league just may secure enough access to effectively monitor the vote in march as long as it avoids taking sides and protects its neutrality is going off r t moscow. all right you can always get all
5:14 am
the latest news and updates online just by looking. just a click away some of the stories i read today for example have a look at this iran returns the q one seventy drone that was downed in december last year to the united states only now it's pink and about an eighth of the original size. also online spoke too soon germany's forced to switch back to nuclear energy just one year declaring it was giving it up find out why it. it could have with us today this is our city now russia has over one hundred billionaires many of whom made their fortunes when state property was privatized in
5:15 am
the one nine hundred ninety s. but after decades of reaping the profits they may soon have to give a fat share back presidential candidate a lot of impudence has a proposal russia's very own robin hood tax let's get some details on this now and speak to our teaser business that are nick paul here joining us live on the program and it good to see you on this so tell us i mean how exactly is this supposed to work even if it ever does become law will the rich people could they just a rock up to the doors of the kremlin sporting bags of money i mean it's putin simply playing robin hood. it's probably going to be done by the tax man wearing a suit carrying a sheaf of papers i think the serious point here is that putin is in full campaign mode and he's basically. to sort of. cover some of the money the oligarchs have had acquired in some cases perhaps fraudulently or at least not
5:16 am
entirely honestly which he put in themselves admitted when he's making a speech yesterday now it's quite tricky to get money back from people you have to do it you can't just go and empty their bank accounts and this is sort of the reason number of problems so the details are quite thin on the ground or how it will happen and we are talking vast sums of money i mean i mean how how how much could it bring to the russian economy could we really see a bout of the rich giving to the poor i mean they're certainly i mean we all know there are certainly enough super yachts to go around there are enough so. we see the rich giving to the port not voluntarily probably so as i say it will have to be done. in the enactment of law now there are some precedents for this in the u.k. actually after the property has ation period in the noise and it is under thatcher this whole deal which telecom which gasoline. and the the government. later decided they'd sort of all the families who were much too cheaply and then want to go and get some more of that money and so they live with a windfall tax of about eight billion pounds which is you know often in
5:17 am
considerable sum of money so that is a possibility let's talk about the timing here how is all of this going to go down with the political lobby here in moscow just less than a month away now from the election the presidential election how is this going to work with voters do you think you will promise to also come up with the idea for luxury tax which was actually on things like super cause. he's quite explicit about the idea that this is not going to be a tax on the middle class it's just for this very small minority of super wealthy people now it's difficult to generalize about. any population feels but i think it's a sense that they don't really like the tycoons because the oligarchs and taxing them not likely to be a vote loser let's put it that way you mention the only cars you mention the tycoons i want to put in their rivals for the presidency we got off one of the country's richest playboys loving the bachelor lifestyle of fast cars and fast boats i mention here.
