make up or break up britain's prime minister issues a stark warning to the eurozone today urging action or face collapse. david cameron thousand to keep the u.k. safe whatever happens the euro but in faith in britain best interests for the common currency countries to feel that problems outside. syria releases names of alleged foreign terrorists in its custody as the rebellion gets boosted by arms from abroad while suffering a split at the top of what. is will be ignites the palestinian conflict by sending gaza as it pushes ahead with efforts to barricade itself from its increasingly frustrated with the navy is. the russian markets. today now nearing it.
11:01 am
as the best is avoid risk yeah i think in light of the ongoing great song to me when it's time to think. seven pm in moscow good to have you with us here on r t our top story britain's prime minister says the eurozone is running out of time to solve its crisis david cameron tells business leaders the beleaguered single currency countries are at a crossroads demanding urgent action to avoid sparking a global depression our correspondent in london laura smith. he used these words that the eurozone has to make up or break up essentially what he's saying is support greece or see the euro zone fail he's calling for years and states and institutions to step in and help greece to support these require me to not just be made in italy as well as i say these are stronger words than he's ever used before he explicitly said that germany must do more and he talked about three or more
11:02 am
tricks of the euro which is according to him a sort of rigid system that looks in any. terms and. would normally do if it had that same currency would be to see value but inside the realms of the euro that's just not a possible option for them so cameron is saying that stronger states must be help help the weaker ones and he also said that the logic of a monetary union urges more political cooperation so that it takes an electorate responsibility from all the countries to help out the weaker ones that this sort of fiscal burden sharing that he's talking about and also a supportive monetary policy amongst all the countries in this people are very quick to say that of course the u.k. is not a member of the euro zone in syria no been a sense what business does cover and have particularly to criticize countries like germany and france when when the u.k.'s economy isn't necessarily involved but cameron's message today was that he wants to see the euro zone succeed because it's
11:03 am
in every country's financial interests to have strong economic neighbors david cameron sees really his job in all this to keep britain safe is he says he says it's in the u.k. interest to have these stable neighbors david cameron's message really is that he doesn't want greece to drop out of the euro zone experts are now saying that if it does happen then it could cause ten years of global depression this sort of turmoil in the financial markets that will be got over quickly also of course he won't be able to get that very austerity as it is at the moment failing in the euro is the same. see that he's pushing in britain and also trying to push the other european countries as well so it's a politically very difficult position for him to be in what we're seeing increased at the moment is a new prime minister who's of course the kate's caretaker prime minister up until a new election could be held on the seventeenth of june and there are huge fear is that the greek people will ultimately lead to. government and if that happens it
11:04 am
means that they won't have access to any more bailouts from countries we're seeing drooling from banks in greece and that's not just happening in greece we're hearing reports that it's happening in spain too and it could possibly spread to italy there's been the recent nationalization of one of spain's biggest banks banks here and reports the spanish people have also withdrawn a total of around a billion euros just in the past few days from those banks so the fear isn't that without the without greece the eurozone would collapse the fear is that greece is leaving would create a sort of house of cards in fact whereby everything else would fall down after that and of course this is against a backdrop of huge political differences between the main players in this new french president francois loans is very until the in fact he's going to says he's going to increase spending in france doesn't seem like that's a tool so we've got a lot of political wrangling from these major players who according to what david
11:05 am
cameron said today are the only once you could potentially sort this out this is caretaker government's been sworn in after a period coalition talks fell apart another election next month likely to decide whether greece stays or leaves the euro economist alberto mcgarty says previous leaders failed to deliver real reforms to the people. the european health already have tried to push osteria in greece and like with a hammer but at the very same time wood was a company in greece in terms of the leader of men legalizing dollywood market capping the size of government capping a thing who was very late to doing this to me i think at this point he's highly probable that police will exit the euro in the next few weeks and it may cause a domino effect in other mediterranean qantas and or to go spain eventually to lead to the europe is suffering a very strong lack of leadership and a lack of vision the quality of do all those in european countries know that it's
11:06 am
not very high they mismanage the crisis stated few just to see the euro for when do you who was which is a monitor in a stead they wanted i mean basically you had to beat it george and of course. it's utopian unification now we x.x. li wary of the for the us at this point if you love need to save itself you have needs to avoid into some kind of a transfer you you know me moving money from the pockets of for each europeans germans basically to deposits of food here via the dollars that of course i'm in german voters are not going to be allowed to. economist economics journalist editor chakraborty admits greece cutting itself loose cutting itself loose from the euro won't be easy and i think is may yet be in for worse here some of what we hear in the next hour. people have been modeling what the greek exit from the euro zone would look like for the best part of a year politically and economically politically even those who are in favor of
11:07 am
greece leaving so. they would accept that it would involve beyond being states people that it would mean the banks would. be a came to not be working it would mean that people be stopped from leaving the country especially with these foods of euros in their back pocket because the country that they need to stop capital come and to maintain a high level move so it would feel picked like a country in the market. the question all in the saudis really for the rest of the euro zone if the euro zone can say to the rest and to financial markets look greece is leaving but we all know that greece is a special case you know behind our hands with a bit of a basket case and its problems are not the rest of the euro zone that's what they really mean by an orderly exit if they can convince everyone that greece is leaving because of greece not because of the euro i don't think the markets would buy that
11:08 am

one million dollars just to build this done for just only one family. for a decade already israel's been building a wall that cuts through the west bank these raby states for security but palestinians complain it saves them from their land and communities the leadership of israel is going crazy and they have no real plan their have no really vision no real vision of a very long term answer because walls will not and will never ever provide security for this one is a good neighbor is actually provide security and we do not have good neighbors eventually the village of larger will also be completely closed in by the wall the only way in and out will be through this entrance that the israelis will control here too the israelis are building another tunnel. this one is so that omar's neighbors can reach a small family cemetery they'll be electrified fence and the local joke is that not only are the israelis separating palestinians from their land they're separating
