more radical rhetoric. that's given rise to a huge political debate and what's needed to the foreground of the discourse is mary background ship. from anyone who regularly consults internet sites which promote terror or hatred or violence will be sentenced to prison any person going abroad for the purposes of indoctrination in terrorist ideology will be criminally punished that's in addition to psychos east policy of stripping of foreign born criminals of their citizenship for their tightening border controls saying there are too many foreigners in france and promising to bar radical muslim preachers from entering the country to participate in the islamic conference next month ok only advocating the political extremism it's not a crime we have. freedom of speech in france in a don't see. the it's. was a french citizen an east family came to france

islamic fundamentalism has been underestimated. i think all that's been announced after these tragic events are proposals put forward soley for the elections it goes to the one who proposes the most radical solutions which would aim supposedly having a problem but the problem is much deeper what was are now the growing number of immigrants in france about six million of whom are muslims is being labeled as a problem by some prominent figures politicians are throwing around what they call solutions the question is whether any of these policy ideas on immigration or security are realistic that are addressing an actual problem or simply the consequences of something more fundamental the core of the problem is pretty difficult to recruit because what is the goal the goal to pull in there doesn't seem to be much consensus or backs either does or sylvia r.t. paris. will still have to do this i hear an r.t. tightening their belts. staying implements work being budget cuts team to be the

toughest in almost four decades i call was just a day off the hundreds of thousands of people took to the streets in protest. of the camera that's why it's of picture of you is able to compare it to your driver's license photo and so. all right marina was on the corner of forty circular a three o'clock last saturday. not such a private life anymore as even your home appliances could soon start spying on you they reveal u.s. surveillance plans very shortly. but first nato states may be supporting a u.n. peace plan for a cease fire from all sides in syria but the u.s. and its allies are firmly backing the rebels to britain's promise to funnel additional aid to the opposition with hundreds of thousands of pounds amid reports they're already getting weapons from abroad smith reports now from london. this money that the u.k. has pledged amounts to eight hundred thousand dollars and it represents
1:09 pm
a doubling of the funding that's being given to the opposition we're expecting other countries to follow suit including the u.s. a seventy one nation meeting on sunday it's a group that calls itself the friends of syria this is the second meeting that. and in fact it seems from their agenda that they are not in fact friends of syria they're in fact friends of the syrian opposition and the goals of the missing that they're holding on sunday includes you know seeing what really focus on uniting this this famously disparate opposition that we see in syria and whilst at the same time thinking up new measures to increase pressure on the regime so it's a very one sided strategy that they've got going on and he's also said recently that he's looking a boring u.n. peacekeeping troops from various regions to try to enforce a peace that doesn't actually exist yet we've seen in the last couple of days in
1:10 pm
the amount of violence gunmen from the opposition are reported to have kidnapped a high ranking military pilot and also assassinated two colonels from the army on thursday so that looks like the opposition is stepping up its attacks in fact the opposition says that it won't contemplate even negotiating on anything which would allow for our side to stay in power meanwhile it is very angry about this support that's being provided to the opposition from the international community he says that countries have to stop providing money and weapons to the opposition immediately if this plan is to succeed he's calling the opposition terrorists of course kofi annan himself has come out and said that the deadline for a cease fire is now and that the regime in syria should you know and a gesture of good faith to be the first to step down course in a bilateral cease fire it's very difficult to time those things it's very unlikely that i thought will volunteer to be the first to step down so we're really not any any further forward but if the situation develops any further. smith in london and

while the un is publicly pushing with its peace plan for syria washington and saudi arabia are pursuing the means to solve the conflict you are suggesting hillary clinton is in riyadh to work out a unified strategy head of the friends of syria meeting this coming weekend political analyst chris bambery has told me that he thinks these two states are pursuing their own agendas the saudis are very keen to all over through the assad regime as soon as possible and want to increase the arms which are going to the syrian rebels the free syrian army etc the americans are slightly weary not because they are keen to overthrow the assad regime because of from their own experience they know all the providing weapons probably also means involve providing weapons and structures and so on and can lead to involvement in a conflict which the sea easy solution to is the americans for the wrong reasons in part because the removal straits in afghanistan and elsewhere are hesitant of oh
1:12 pm
escalating on supplies to the rebels the west has almost overworked the saudi humanitarian agenda the question of civil rights in saudi arabia what it's doing to its own people and what it's done to the people of yemen bahrain and other countries around it because business is good with saudi arabia they are two things that many don't like a regime they will use the human race card when you wake a regime the streets silent over the question of human rights as they have done with saudi arabia so given machine and indeed back when we don't hear any condemnation from hillary clinton or david cameron spain is pass its deepest budget cuts yet amid loud public discontent hundreds of thousands spilled into the streets across the country on thursday while demonstrators clashed with police and broke windows in barcelona r.t. chaiken greaves is in the trip. twenty seven billion euro has been slashed that's
1:13 pm
the equivalent of thirty six billion dollars that's aimed at reducing the deficit to five point three percent of g.d.p. in two thousand and twelve some fees already raised about this figure twenty sume billion euros moody's credit rating agency they say that she about forty wall billion euro needs to be culled from the budget what they are doing is sashing same team sent from all budgets from the ministry so that's throughout the whole of the ministries in spain that includes some of those people think should be bring famous allies of education and health care as well they want to bring in some of the protesters and unions in order for development in the future that hasn't occurred in this case and what may allay some of it seems that tensions have the caps as have. salaries in some areas civil servants salaries have been kept as well now this isn't just a problem to do with spain when it comes to their deficits and specious dressed
1:14 pm
a lot recently we've seen a sense of big today in denmark that's where all the european finance ministers met and they've agreed a far will an eight hundred billion euro but i will go to safeguard against any future played out and spain has really been in everyone's mind when they're talking about that he thinks too big to fail it has be teetering on the brink from being here the real pressure need get from the people who are in the unions who sells it i don't mind austerity understand that there has to be austerity in these tough times but they think certainly there should be bring pencil it should take the cut should be made it absolutely everywhere and we are talking about health care education also reach your loss of he found the street yes there is a labor of full this is going to make it easier to sack equal and easier to reduce their wages in an environment where unemployment is starting in spain is twenty three percent of the population the highs in any developed nation and even higher among the. those below the age of twenty five were stands about fifty percent in
1:15 pm
terms of unemployment that's why we saw a lot of young people out on the streets yes they the police figures estimate is about eighty thousand people and betrayed a low views which is as high as eight hundred thousand there were similar protests demonstrations taking place in valencia also in boston alone and there we saw clashes with police parts of the city set ablaze and windows being smashed. jake agrees there in the. economic analyst michael ross is also the also of the book the currency crash joining us there in spain as we passed those huge and unpopular cuts and there is speculation it won't be able to implement them what do you think. i mean have you ever heard of a politician who was promises came true or became we're late in the future i mean not and what i can see is that when want to make this government is not only visited his pale it's also impossible when you look at the private sector
1:16 pm
private sector is totally over debt more or less bankrupt or you look at the banks although they're bankrupt struggle bank bankrupt government also mourners bankrupt how can you implement an authority package in this circumstances so everybody will see this won't work because what i what i see is that spain is the last nail in the euro zone coffin spain will definitely blow up the euro because spain alone has to refinance itself this year which takes up to five hundred billion maybe also seven hundred euros this is a loan is the rescue package that they're made today copenhagen so i mean we have two possibilities why the euro will be obviously not working well the first is that we will have a kind of domestic insurrection in spain itself so we have to pull out of the e.u. and other to come the people of the other one is the financial aspect that it is
1:17 pm
not possible to help spain with five hundred or seven hundred euros in order to refinance themselves so if this if you come to this point them then i think. germany will pull out of them but michael you say these are sturdy measures won't work the government there in spain said this will actually lead to boosting the economy and creating jobs why are they wrong. this is a totally contradiction when you make us turkey you cannot have a boom boom means always money printing boom ain't means always that you have to make more debts if you can't do this then you have a contraction in the system and this is what is very very hard for this is what with the rich is very very difficult and when politicians are talking about adjustment adjustment is such a nice word but it means in reality that people there have to become poorer they have to become poorer this is the adjustment that i mean and when you have
1:18 pm
a. when you are a government and you have to tell it to the people the people are feeling that they are becoming poorer you are in a big big difficulty so again this could easily lead to a domestic insurrection and this one could also trigger more problems in the other seven countries here in europe but you said earlier this could be the end of the euro germany pulling out we seen the eurozone finance ministers really getting together to address this problem they've agreed to boost the regent bailout fund to what eight hundred billion euro surely the aim is to push confidence in the euro zone will let no work. how can you boost confidence and how can you boost confidence with morphine or if the patient is ill you have to look for the cause of the illness and not give him our film or any acidity of say so it can't work let's go back three weeks for four years when when it all began with this crisis we talked about ten twenty billion euros then we talked about one
1:19 pm
hundred billion euros now we are talking about child hundred billion euros now we are talking about one trillion euros and i promise your next year or by the end of the year we are talking about two to three trillion euros and also this will trigger some question also in the serious people who are not who do not understand the money system this like this can't go on all this debt that is created additionally is nothing as then asserted to leave and it doesn't solve the problem the real problem is that the euro is ill constructed and you can. heal this problem by creating more debts when debt is the problem michael thanks your thoughts good to hear from you michael ross economic analyst joining us there in berlin thank you. well there's always more stories news and analysis at r.t. dot com here's just some of what's mind up for you this hour a prayers not poor in
